 IEI Industrial PC IPC-016 Technical Manual

1. Overview
IPC-016 is an industrial personal computer specially designed for the financial equipment industry,

and it supports the Intel Core i7/i5/i3/Pentium/Celeron processor and supports two dual-channel

240-pin 1067/1333/1600 MHz DDR3 SDRAM memory modules. The system supports up to 16GB

(H81 SKU) or 32GB (Q87 SKU) memory.

The IPC-016 H81 standard edition contains two DVI interface, and supports independent double

display; and the Q87 high-end edition contains two DVI interfaces/one VGA interface, and

supports independent triple display. The extended interface includes one PCIe x1 slot, one PCIe

x16 slot and one Mini PCIe slot; and the H81 standard edition contains two USB 3.0 (Q87 Sku:

6*USB3.0) and eight USB 2.0 (Q87 Sku: 8*USB2.0) interfaces located in the I/O panel. The serial

device may pass through four standard RS-232 interfaces (9PIN) and six custom RS-232 interfaces

(4PIN).

The IPC-016 standard edition integrates an ntel® H81 chipset, while the whole high-end integrates

an Intel® Q87 chipset with Intel® i211 and Intel® i217LM dual GbE LAN interfaces and may

support the Intel® AMT9.0 function.

IPC-016 is of 24Vdc input.

The industrial personal computer IPC-016 IPC has rich external interfaces and built-in extended

interfaces.

 H81 SKU: 10*USB(8*USB2.0/2*USB3.0,10*Rear I/O,0*Internal Conn);

Q87 SKU: 14*USB(8*USB2.0/6*USB3.0,12*Rear I/O,2*Internal Conn).

 10*RS-232;

 2 * RJ45 Gbe interface;

 Display interface:

H81 SKU: 2 x DVI interfaces, supporting independent double display;

Q87 SKU: 2 x DVI + 1 x VGA interfaces, supporting independent triple display.

 4 * SATA interfaces;

Confidential material of GRG, No disclosure to unauthorized Party 1

 IEI Industrial PC IPC-016 Technical Manual

H81 SKU: 2*SATA III (6Gb/s), 2*SATA II (3Gb/s);

Q87 SKU: 4*SATA III (6Gb/s).

 Audio interface: 1 * Line Out/1 * Mic In/1 * Line In;

 Extended Interface: 1 * PCIe x16, 1 * PCIe x1 and 1 * Mini PCIe;

 1*PS/2 KB & MS (Internal Conn)

 8-bit GPIO;

 TPM slot: 1 x TPM slot, supporting TPM1.2/TPM2.0 specification.

1.1.Scope of application and conditions

1. Applicable models: H68V and H22V;

2. Other models suitable for the industrial personal computer. Other machine items to be
imported need to be evaluated and verified before import;

3. The standard configuration is a dual-DVI display interface and is suitable for the model with
DVI interface as the display. If VGA interface is required, the DVI To VGA adapter or
conversion module needs to be added.

1.2.Supported operating system

Win7/Win10

The IPC-016 (H81 SKU) has totally ten USB interfaces. The USB9/10 are USB3.0 interface, and

the USB1 ~ USB8 are USB2.0 interfaces.

According to the USB Root Hub grouping,the IPC-016 USB is divided into three groups.

USB1/2/3/4 are regarded as a group, and USB5/6/7/8 are regarded as a group, and USB9/10 are

regarded as a group.

8.2.Q87 SKU USB interface grouping

The IPC-016 (Q87 SKU) has totally 14 USB ports. The USB9/10/11/12/13/14 are USB3.0

interface, and the USB1 ~ USB8 are USB2.0 interfaces.

According to the USB Root Hub grouping,the IPC-016 USB is divided into three groups.

USB1/2/3/4 are regarded as a group, USB5/6/7/8 are regarded as the same group, and

USB9/10/11/12/13/14 are regarded as a group.

Suggestions about the external USB device of USB port:

1) The USB devices occupying high bandwidth is possibly hung under different USB groups,

such as document scanner and camera.

 IEI Industrial PC IPC-016 Technical Manual

2) The devices of the same category should be connected to the USB ports in different groups,

for example, the document scanners and cameras are allocated to different USB groups. Based

on the previous analysis, the compatibility between document scanners and cameras has

nothing to do with the USB speed. Any document scanner without bottom drive is driven by

the public drive of system; therefore, it cannot be compatible with camera in the case of

exclusive access.

3) USB devices occupying low bandwidth, such as touch panels, RF cards and printers can be

allocated as you like.

4) In the use of the module, it is required to determine whether the module driver is provided by

the manufacturer or to be shared with the system, and whether the module is exclusive.

Exclusive modules need to be separated from other modules sharing the system USB driver

and the modules of the two types are put into different USB groups.

9. Safety Precautions
(1) Please do not put the industrial personal computer on an uneven surface for work;

(2) When the industrial personal computer is used normally, please ensure that the industrial

personal computer works in a non-vibration environment so as not to damage the hard disk;

(3) Avoid hot plug on the Power Cable, and ensure that the power supply is off so as to avoid the

motherboard or other components from being damaged due to short circuit and static

electricity before hot plug of the power cable;

(4) During normal operation of the industrial personal computer, do not directly turn off the

power forcedly, and protect the hard disk, motherboard or operating system from damage;

(5) Restart the industrial personal computer more than 15 seconds after it is shutdown;

(6) In order to ensure reliable operation of industrial personal computer, you are strongly

recommended not to change the BIOS settings of motherboard;

(7) In order to avoid static damage, you are strongly recommended not to hot plug when the I/0

interface of the industrial personal computer is used;

(8) Please do not arbitrarily dismantle the industrial personal computer, and please refer to the

common troubleshooting methods or immediately contact with the manufacturer in case of

any fault;

(9) Please keep the industrial personal computer to be used more than one meter away from the

equipment (inverter, motor) that will produce strong electromagnetic interference;

(10) Please keep the industrial personal computer possibly away from the environment that is

damp and has extreme temperature, vibration and rich dust;

(11) Since the chassis openings of the industrial personal computer and the thermovents in the rear

of the power supply are used for ventilation, please do not block or cover such openings so as

to ensure that the industrial personal computer is functioning properly and to prevent

overheating.

(12) In order to ensure the cooling effect of the industrial personal computer, you are strongly

recommended to clean the dustproof sponge in the industrial personal computer every three

months;

(13) In order to ensure efficient and reliable operation of the industrial personal computer, please

provide disk cleanup and disk defragmentation for the hard disk every three months;

(14) Please regularly back up important data in the industrial personal computer so as to avoid data

loss caused by failure;

(15) You are recommended to use genuine licensed operating system and related application

software;

(16) If you need to install other application software, please read the instructions for the software

to be installed; confirm whether the software is compatible with the operating system of the

industrial personal computer and please confirm whether the hardware configuration of the

industrial personal computer meets the requirements of the software for the hardware of the

industrial personal computer ;

(17) If the used industrial personal computer needs to connect to the Internet or local area network,

you are strongly recommended to pre-install anti-virus software and regularly keep it updated

to prevent system paralysis due to virus attack, thus ensuring the reliable operation of the

industrial personal computer;

(18) When the industrial personal computer encounters power outage due to non-human reason,

you are strongly recommended to immediately power off the industrial personal computer and

power on the computer after confirming stable power network so as to ensure the normal and

reliable operation of the industrial personal computer; if power limiting is frequent due to

tight power supply, you are strongly recommended to provide the industrial personal

computer with a UPS power supply having relevant specifications to ensure stable operation

of the industrial personal computer.
