Important Safety Precautions

Before getting started, read these instructions and save them for later reference.

1. Turn off the computer before cleaning. Clean with a damp or dry cloth only. Do not spray any liquid cleaner on screen directly.

2. The power outlet socket used to plug in the computer power cord must be located near the system and easily accessible. Do not use outlets on the same circuit of the systems that regularly switched on and off.

3. Make sure the voltage of the power source is correct before connecting the computer to the power outlet.

4. If the computer is sharing an extension cord with other devices, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating.

5. Do not expose the power cord, extension cord and power outlet to moisture.

6. Install the computer on a reliable surface to prevent damage caused by dropping.

7. This computer is not equipped with an operating system. An operating system must be loaded first before installing any software into the computer.

8. Disconnect the power cord from the computer before any installation. Make sure both the computer and the external devices are turned off. The sudden surge of power may ruin any sensitive components. Also make sure the computer is properly grounded.

9. During installation of any internal components, be sure to ground yourself to keep from any static charge.

Most electronic components are sensitive to the static electric charge. Use a grounding wrist strap and place all electronic components in any static-shielded devices.

10. The openings on the computer enclosure are for the cabin ventilation to prevent the computer from overheating. DO NOT COVER THE OPENINGS.

11. The brightness of the flat panel display will decrease with use. However, hours of use will vary depending on the application environment.

12. If the computer is equipped with a touch panel, avoid using sharp objects to operate the touch panel.

Scratches on the touch panel may cause mal-calibration or non-function to the panel.

13. The LCD panel display is not subject to shock or vibration. When assembling the computer, make sure it is securely installed.

2.2.2. Running the BIOS Setup

If you are a commercial user, the APOLLO 120/150 III should have been properly set up and configured by your dealer. You may still find it necessary to change the system configuration information. In this case, you need to run the system’s BIOS setup program.

Under the following conditions, the CMOS settings are to be changed.

1. The system is starting for the first time.

2. The hardware devices attached to the APOLLO III system have been changed.

3. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration information has been erased.

The BIOS setup program is stored in ROM, which can be accessed by pressing <DEL> key on the keyboard immediately when the system is powered on.

In order to retain the specified setup information when the system power is turned off, the system setup information is stored in a battery-backed CMOS RAM. The battery is to ensure the settings will not be erased when the computer is turned off or reset. When the computer is powered on again, the system will read the settings stored in the CMOS RAM and compare them to the equipment check conducted during the power on self-test (POST). If any error or mismatch occurs, an error message will be shown on the screen and the computer will be prompted to run the setup program.

To change the BIOS setup, please refer to Chapter 7 for more information.

5.11. Expansion Outlets & Riser Card Assembly

The APOLLO 120/150 provides PCI/ISA expansion slots for system expansion. Via the specially designed riser card, the system can accommodate either two PCI or one PCI plus one

ISA expansion cards; all the connectors of the expansion card will come out from the expansion outlet on the left side of the chassis for further cable connection.

The expansion outlet bracket has to be installed to the system before plugging the riser card to the motherboard

PCI/ISA expansion slot.

1. When the system is reverse with the rear side facing you and lower side near you, the expansion outlets are located at the right upper side of the chassis.

2. Install the expansion window (Fig. 5-1 (11)) to the chassis and fix them together with 2 flat-head screws.

3. If no expansion card is plugged to the riser card, seal the expansion outlets with the 2 metal slips located inside the expansion outlet.

4. The riser card (8) is to be fixed with the metal bracket (9) with two flat-head screws first. Then, plug the riser card to the onboard PCI/ISA slot. Make sure the riser card is firmly plugged to the motherboard to prevent any bad connection.

Due to the internal space limitation, the expansion card can not exceed 190*120 (L*W) mm if no internal FDD is installed.

However if an internal FDD is installed, the ISA card can not exceed 170*120 mm.

5.12. Back Panel Assembly

The back panel module is the last module to be integrated to the APOLLO main system before the plastic housing is to be installed to the system.

1. On the I/O board, there are 6 D-SUB connectors with 2 bronze sticks on each side. Remove the 12 bronze sticks.

2. Insert the I/O board to the I/O bracket (2) and fix them together with the 12 bronze sticks. Fix them again with

2 screws on the other side.

3. Fix the complete I/O module to the metal back panel (1) five flat-head 3*5 screws.

4. Connect one end of the 2 68-pin SCSI cables (Fig. 5-12

(4)) to the I/O board (3). Via the 2 SCSI cables, all the onboard I/O signals are converted to the I/O board for device cable connection.

5. Connect the other end of the two SCSI cables to the SCSI

1 and SCSI 2 connectors on the motherboard.

6. Fix the back panel module to the main system.

7. Fix a stand bracket at the bottom side of the chassis with

2 screws.

5.13. Stand Module Assembly

The APOLLO system comes with a versatile stand composing of one big pedestal and one set of cable management covers.

The following figure illustrates the steps to make up the

APOLLO stand.

1. Refer to Fig. 5-13. Fix the two hinges to the hinge bracket

(5). Then fix the unit to the metal base (1). Please note

that the two hinges are different. The right side is used to fix the hinge knob. Note that there are two avocado-shape holes on the metal base. The two avocado holes are used to fix the stand to the table for special application.

2. Insert the stand bottom cover (4) to the hinge module and fix them together with four flat-head 3*6 screws.

3. Fix the plastic upper cover (6) to the hinge bracket with 2 screws.

4. Insert the whole base unit to the base plastic cover (7) and fix them together with screws to make the complete unit a pedestal.

5. Insert the hinge knob (2) to the pedestal.

7. A WARD BIOS S ETUP

The chapter describes how to set up BIOS configuration.

APOLLO 120/150 III 7-103


7.1. Award BIOS

The Award BIOS ROM builds in a setup program, which allows the users to modify the basic system configuration such as the current date and time or the type of peripheral devices attached to the computer.

Under the following conditions, the CMOS settings are to be changed¡ G

1. The system is starting for the first time

2. The hardware devices attached to the systems have been changed

3. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration information has been erased.

The BIOS setup program is stored in ROM, which can be accessed by pressing <DEL> key on the keyboard immediately when the system is powered on.

In order to retain the specified setup information when the system power is turned off, the system setup information is stored in a battery-backed CMOS RAM. The battery is to ensure the settings will not be erased when the computer is turned off or reset. When the computer is powered on again, the system will read the settings stored in the CMOS RAM and compare them to the equipment check conducted during the power on self test (POST). If any error or mismatch occurs, an error message will be shown on the screen and the computer will be prompted to run the setup program.

If you need help when installing the touchscreen controller or making the connections, please contact the Manufacturer’s

Customer Service department.

S TEP 3 - R UNNING THE INSTALL P ROGRAM

The DOS and Windows Driver Disk contains an installation program which will automatically transfer all necessary files to the hard disk.

If you intend to install the Windows drivers, make sure that the Windows has been installed and operating properly before proceeding. You must have a DOS mouse driver

(MOUSE.COM) installed for your mouse if you wish to continue using your mouse along with the touchscreen in

DOS or Windows.

If you only want to change the configuration of your touchscreen controller, see Changing Your Hardware

Configuration with SETUP, page 14, for information on the

SETUP utility.

9-156 APOLLO 120/150 III


To install the software, insert the DOS and Windows Driver

Disk and type:

A:INSTALL <Enter> or

B:INSTALL <Enter>

Respond to the on-screen prompts and instructions. You will be asked to specify the model and configuration of your controller, then select between DOS Express Installation,

Windows Express Installation, or Selective

Installation. The touchscreen controller of the

APOLLO 120/140/150 I is serial type. The model number is E271-2210 AccuTouch. Baud rate of the controller is “9600”. The APOLLO 120/140/150 I uses onboard COM3 to drive this controller, IRQ is selected

by BIOS setting. IRQ10 is the factory default setting

for COM3. The software to be installed and disk space requirements will be displayed for each installation option.

You may specify the drive and directory for the files you choose to install, or use the default (C:\TOUCH).

The INSTALL program will modify your AUTOEXEC.BAT file,

(and SYSTEM.INI file for Windows installations). Copies of the original files will be saved as AUTOEXEC.OLD and

SYSTEM.OLD.

Command Line Flags

Several flags may be specified on the INSTALL command line.

To override the default system language used by INSTALL, specify the -L flag as follows:

INSTALL -L <x>

Use -Lg or -Ld for German, -Ls for Spanish, -Lf for French, or

-Le for English.

To override the path to C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT, use the -a flag as follows:

INSTALL -a <filename with path>

More than one flag may be specified, separated by spaces.

Flags may be in upper or lower case.

S TEP 4 - C ALIBRATING THE T OUCHSCREEN

The final installation step is calibrating the touchscreen. Type

"GO" when instructed. Begin the calibration sequence.

You will be prompted to touch three calibration points on the screen. Before you do so, position yourself in front of the screen in normal sitting (or standing) position, with normal height and reach.

Using your finger, touch each of the three points as they appear in the corners of the screen. The program will respond with a “beep” sound as you lift your finger from each point.

Calibration is performed in four common video modes: 80x25

text mode, CGA 320x200 graphics, VGA 320x200 graphics, and VGA 640x480.

The numerical values for the calibration points for the last video mode are displayed. X or Y-axis inversion is normal.

If the calibration program does not respond to a touch, check the cabling, the switch and/or jumper settings on the controller, and the configuration you selected when installing the software. Run SETUP to change the configuration.

9-158 APOLLO 120/150 III

Why Calibration is Necessary


Calibration is a necessary step for the touchscreen prior for its operation. Unlike mouse or keyboard applications where the cursor is part of the image, a touchscreen is a physical overlay with an independent coordinate system. Only by knowing the position of the image can the PC software convert touchscreen coordinates into image coordinates.

Besides, the differences among touchscreens and controllers, calibration also compensates for the variation in video image among displays. The image is affected by horizontal and vertical adjustments on the monitor and by the physical mounting of the touchscreen.

Additional calibration complications include image blooming, where bright-colored images expand, and the "pin cushion" effect, which causes the corners of the display to be stretched.

Poor display linearity can cause similar-size boxes to be larger at the edges of the screen than they are in the middle, or vice-versa. The displayed image can also be tilted. Even changing video modes can affect the screen size.

Perfect calibration cannot be achieved in all circumstances.

For example, the user can encounter parallax problems with a change in position, or because the present user is not the same stature as the person who calibrated the screen.

Even the most sophisticated calibration techniques can only partially overcome such variations. Therefore, most touchscreen software uses only a two or three-point calibration sequence and relies instead on well-placed touch zones and appropriate user feedback.

The three-point calibration sequence used by Elo automatically corrects inverted touchscreen installations and backward cable connections. X or Y-axis inversion is normal for most touchscreens.

APOLLO 120/150 III 9-159


When Recalibration is Necessary

Once calibrated, the touchscreen will be ready to run automatically each time the system is restarted.

Recalibration should only be necessary after moving or resizing the video image, or after changing either the touchscreen, controller, or monitor.

Type "DEMOCAL" or click on “Calibrate” in the Windows

Touchscreen Control Panel to re-run the calibration sequence.

U NINSTALLING THE S OFTWARE Demonstration Program

You may wish to delete the demonstration program from your hard disk after you have run it. This will free approximately

1.7 Mbytes of disk space. Delete EloDEMO.EXE, *PIC,*.IMG, and *.BGI, typically found in the \TOUCH directory.

MonitorMouse for Windows

Delete CURSOFF.EXE and Elo.BMP from the \WINDOWS directory. Delete MONMOUSE.DRV, VMMD.386, EloCALW.*, and OEMElo.INF from \WINDOWS\SYSTEM. Delete the lines indicated by comments as added by Elo from your

SYSTEM.INI file. Delete the [EloCalW] section from WIN.INI.

C: Wake-On-LAN

The Wake-On-LAN is a remote management tool with the advantage to reduce system management workload. It provides the capability to remotely power on the client computers supporting Wake-On-LAN by simply sending a

“wake up packet”. After powering up the client systems, the user is able to monitor the remote systems’ status and to upload or download files to or from the clients. With this feature, MIS persons can flexibly perform client maintenance during off-hours; the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) will be thus lowered.

To use Wake On LAN function, the client system must have a network card with chipset that supports the Wake-On-LAN and an ATX power supply meeting 2.01 with at least 720mA standby current is also required to support the Ethernet card for this function. The APOLLO is a panel PC system with these two features. To use the APOLLO Wake-On-LAN function, please refer to the following;

1. Download the “Wake up packet”,

PCnet Family Software Magic Packet Utility. This utility is downloadable from AMD website at http://www.amd.com/us-en/Networking/ProductInformatio n/0,,50_2330,00.html

Or refer to the Magic Packet ™ Technology at AMD website for how to write your own wake-up program. http://www.amd.com/us-en/Networking/TechnicalResource s/0,,50_2334_2481,00.html
