Chapter 1 General Information

1.1 Introduction
The IPC-610F is a PC/AT-compatible computer designed for industrial applications. This rugged,
all-steel chassis meets the EIA RS-310C 19" rackmount standard. The unit includes a 14-slot PC-bus
compatible passive backplane, and a more efficient switching power supply in a single fan-cooled
chassis.
The passive backplane configuration of the IPC-610F minimizes downtime, simplifies troubleshooting,
makes upgrading easier and allows for a more efficient system package. All electronic components are
modular in design and can be easily serviced. The IPC-610F accommodates most plug-in cards,
including CPU, video, disk controller, and I/O interface cards. They can be conveniently installed and
replaced from the top of the unit.
The IPC-610F will withstand shock, vibration, dust, and a wide range of operating temperatures in
harsh industrial environments. The chassis is positively pressurized by two filtered push-pull cooling
fans to exclude dust and dirt. A lockable door protects drives and switches from tampering and foreign
particles.

Chapter 2 System Setup
Setting up your IPC-610F requires only a screwdriver and a small amount of time. Before you begin,
you should also gather together all of the cards you plan to install, as well as the keyboard you plan to
use.
A lockable door is located on the chassis front cover, providing access to the control panel. This offers
protection and security against damage and unauthorized access. The control panel functions include
power on/off, keyboard lock, reset switch and three LED indicators (power on, keyboard lock and
HDD) to assist in monitoring system status. On the rear panel there is a grounding point (earthing
point) located on the bottom right hand corner. This provides an earth for the whole system and is
attached via a screw.

WARNING: Disconnect all power from the chassis before you install the CPU cards. Unplug
the power cord from the wall; turning off the power switch alone is not sufficient. If
you are not sure what to do, take the job to an experienced professional.

2.1 Removing the Cover

There are screws which secure the cover to the chassis. They are along the sides, near the top. Re-
move them, and then slide the cover to the rear of the chassis. See Fig. 2-1 below:

Figure 2-1: Removing the cover

2.2 Adding Your Disk Drives

1. Remove the four outer screws which mount the shock-resistant drive-bay to the chassis. (See Fig. 2-2)
2. Slide the drive bay about 2 cm toward the rear, to a location where it is not obstructed by the upper
rim. Lift it free of the chassis.
3. Remove the cover to the drive bay front and insert the drives into their proper locations in the drive
bay. (See Fig. 2-3)

 2.3 The Hold-down Clamp
The IPC-610F uses a hold-down clamp to ensure the plug-in cards are securely fastened. It also offers
protection against shock and vibration. To install your cards into the passive backplane, proceed as
follows:
1. Detach the hold-down clamp by removing the two screws located at each end and lifting it off the
chassis. (See Fig. 2-4)
2. Insert the rubber buffers (provided) into the hold-down clamp. These buffers offer the plug-in cards
two levels of protection against vibration. (See Fig. 2-5)

2.4 Replacing the Filter
The filter is located next to the lockable door. Under continuous use, the filter should be removed about
once a month. To replace the filter, refer to Fig. 2-6 below and do the following:
1. Open the lockable door.
2. Take the filter out by gently pulling the tab and sliding the filter to the right.
3. Slide a new filter in until it snaps into place.
4. Close and lock the lockable door.

2.5 The Cooling Fan

The cooling fan which is inside the chassis is designed to be plugged into a connector for easy mainte-
nance. Please refer to figure 2-7 below for illustration.
