Grounding the V2406A
V2406A Rear View
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection
from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting
the power. Note that these products are intended to be mounted to
a well-grounded mounting surface, such as a metal panel.
V2406A Series
Quick Installation Guide
Second Edition, April 2015
Overview
ATTENTION
The V2406A-C2 uses the Intel® Celeron® 1047UE processor and
the V2406A-C7 uses the Intel® Core™ i7-3517UE processor. Both
models feature 4 RS-232/422/485 serial ports, dual 10/100/1000
Mbps LAN ports, 3 USB 2.0 hosts, and 2 CFast sockets. The
computers provide 2 DVI-I outputs, making them particularly
well-suited for industrial applications such as rolling stock, SCADA,
and automation systems.
The following table describes the LED indicators located on the
front and rear panels of the V2406A.

Installing the V2406A
The V2406A can be DIN-rail mounted, wall mounted, or VESA
mounted. Some mounting kits may need to be purchased
separately. Refer to the V2406A Hardware User’s Manual for
detailed installation instructions.

Connector Description
Power Connector
Connect the 12 to 48 VDC LPS or Class 2 power line to the V2406A
M12 A-coded power connector. If the power is supplied properly,
the Power LED will light up. The OS is ready when the Ready LED
glows a solid green.
ATTENTION
The branch circuit overcurrent protection must be rated at
a maximum of 5 A.

SG: The Shielded Ground (sometimes
called Protected Ground) contact is the
central pin of the power input
connector. Connect the SG wire to an
appropriate grounded metal surface.
DVI-I Outputs
The V2406A comes with 2 DVI-I female connectors for the DVI
display. These output interfaces are all located on the front panel
of the product. Be sure to use the correct cable to connect the
computer to the display.
CFast Slot
The V2406A has 2 CFast sockets. One slot is located on the front
panel for OS storage and the other slot is located inside the
V2406A for backup storage. Both slots support CFast Type-I/II
with DMA mode.
To install an OS CFast card, remove the outer cover and insert the
CFast card in the socket. When finished, push the cover into the
socket and refasten the screws.
To install a CFast card for backup storage, purchase a CFast card
through Moxa’s CTO* service. Refer to the V2406A datasheet for
more information.
*CTO = Configure to order
USB Hosts
The V2406A has one USB port with an M12 D-coded connector on
the front panel, and two USB ports with type A connectors on the
rear panel. These USB ports can be used to connect flash disks for
storing large amounts of data.

Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports using M12 X-coded
connectors are located on the front panel. The pin assignments are
shown below.
Press the “Reset Button” on the rear panel of the computer to
reboot the system automatically. The Ready LED will blink on and
off for the first 5 seconds, and then maintain a steady glow once
the system has rebooted.
The V2406A has 1 SATA-I/II connector for 2.5" SSD/HDD storage
expansion. To expand storage capacity, purchase an SSD/HDD and
an internal storage kit* through Moxa’s CTO** service.
*This must be purchased separately to install an SSD / HDD. For
details, check the optional accessories section of the V2406A
datasheet.

Real-Time Clock (RTC)
The V2406A’s real-time clock is powered by a lithium battery. You
can easily replace the battery yourself using an optional battery
kit*. However, please note that there is a risk of explosion if the
battery is replaced by an incorrect type of battery. Refer to the
V2406A Hardware User's Manual or contact a qualified Moxa
support engineer if you have any questions about the RTC battery.
*Moxa offers an “RTC battery kit” that you can use to easily replace
the battery. For details, check the optional accessories section of
the V2406A datasheet.
Serial Ports
The serial ports use DB9 connectors. Each port can be configured
by software for RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485. The pin assignments
