Chapter 4: Description
4.1 General Description
ProPanel MP210X systems are totally integrated, PC-compatible operator interface panels
designed to provide a full color, active matrix, TFT flat screen display and a powerful PC
compatible CPU in a compact, environmentally sealed, rugged enclosure. These systems are
designed to perform in diverse industrial environments. The systems are fully enclosed and do not
require external fans for ventilation. However, for high-temperature operation in direct sunlight,
an air manifold could be attached at the base of the heatsink fins. Since there is no exchange with
outside air, the systems provide dust-free operation. The standard systems are purchased as fully
rated NEMA-4 units.

Chapter 5: Setup
5.1 Preparation
After unpacking the system and reviewing the Safety and Description chapters of this manual, the
ProPanel MP210X system is ready to be setup for operation. Setup instructions are provided in
the following paragraphs.
CAUTION
The ProPanel should be placed on its back (on the heat sink) or otherwise secured such that
the weight of the front panel does not cause the unit to fall forward and cause possible
personal injury or equipment damage when the panel is opened.
A 5-1
Chapter 5 Setup
1. Remove the four type 2 Phillips head machine screws that hold the hood in place around the
front panel (Figure 4-2).
2. Remove the hood.
3. Remove the 20 type 2 Phillips head machine screws that attach the front panel to the body of
the enclosure (Figure 4-4).
4. Swing the panel open from right to left, like a door. Note that the panel is supported by two
hinges (Figures 5-1 and 5-2) that prevent the panel from misaligning when being opened or
closed and from opening to far and damaging the cables.
CAUTION
Do not open the front panel in an area where dust, water or dangerous gasses are present. The
unit should only be opened in a safe area free of contamination or the subsequent operation
and safety rating of the ProPanel may be compromised and the danger of explosion and/or
damage to personnel and equipment may exist.
HINGE
5-2 A
Chapter 5 Setup
When connecting to an AC power source, use 18 AWG wire for the line and neutral and 14 AWG
wire for the ground. When connecting to a DC power source, use 14 AWG or larger wire.
ELECTRICAL GROUND
HAZARD HAZARD
The risk of serious electrical shock exists when wiring the MP210X system. The system should
only be wired by qualified personnel. Do not turn on the power source(s) until the system is
completely wired, solidly grounded and setup as described in this chapter.
4. Tighten the gland nut securely over the cable outer sheath.
5. Close and secure the Maintenance I/O Plate.
If heater power is to be provided through a separate power cable, procure and install a second
gland in the spare hole located directly below the main power gland.
Install the heater power cable in the same way as the main power cable.

The Maintenance I/O Access plate, shown in Figure 5-3, is hinged for quick access. There are
two spare plugged gland holes on the plate. The plate provides access to:
• One RJ45 Ethernet connector
• Two PS-2 keyboard and mouse non-isolated connectors
• One USB Port connector
• One RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 isolated COM port
• Power ON/OFF rocker switch
• Power terminal block
The Standard I/O Access plate, shown removed in Figure 5-4, contains three spare plugged gland
holes. Removing the plate by unscrewing and removing the ten machine screws provides access
to internal periphery devices, including:
• One RS-232 non-isolated COM port
• Two PCMCIA Type II slots
• One 3.5 " floppy drive
• Two I/O plugs to accommodate PCI plug-in I/O cards

The following tables show the pinouts of the COM port No. 1 connectors. Pins are marked from 1
to 9 from left to right respectively.
If using the MP2105 (safe area) system, standard glands can be used for both the power and
signal cables.
If using the MP2100 (hazardous area) system, special glands must be used for the power cables.
Standard glands may be used for the signal cables.
Azonix recommends that the Hawke International A501 family of glands be used with the
MP210X. The following glands can be suspplied by Azonix (part numbers listed).

3. Depending on the length of the cards to be installed, adjust the card bracket holders to the
location that provides the best support, as shown in Figure 5-6.
Do this by removing the two Phillips head machine screws at the base of the brackets, align
the holes in the brackets with tapped holes on the base of the enclosure in the appropriate
locations, re-install the machine screws and tighten them securely, as shown in Figure 5-5.

Chapter 5 Setup
There are two heaters in the system, one for the LCD and another for the hard drive. The
following table explains the different states that the system can be in at various temperatures:
5-10 A
Chapter 5 Setup
1. The main system source can be used to supply power to the heaters. This is the default
connection when the system is shipped.
2. A separate power source can be used to supply power to the heaters. The system will
automatically detect the connection of two separate power sources and operate accordingly.
This technique is useful if the operator doesn't want the system to remain on at all times but
also doesn't want to wait for the system to warm up each time power is applied. If a separate
power source is used, the Heater Module will monitor the temperature and turn the heaters on
and off as required.
This technique also permits a user who uses a UPS for system back-up to connect system
power through the UPS and heater power directly to the power source, allowing the use of a
lower power UPS.
To connect separate power sources to the system, connect a separate heater cable as described in
Section 5.3.1.
A 5-11
Chapter 5 Setup
In some applications, Azonix pre-installs the entire software package defined and released by the
customer. This service usually reduces installation time by the customer at the receiving location.
5-12 A
Chapter 5 Setup
This brightness compensation results in less operator fatigue and better control. Also, because the
MP210X compensates for changes in light conditions automatically, the operator can work
without distraction.
There may be occasions when the operator wishes to adjust the display intensity. During power
up, the display goes to maximum brightness for two minutes, then darkens to minimum for one
minute. During this cycle, the manual override controls are not operative.
After the power up and brightness cycles are complete, the operator can adjust display brightness
manually by pressing the UP and DOWN arrow keys on the left end of the membrane keyboard,
as shown in Figure 4-1. This adjustment will be in effect only during the current power-on cycle
for a few minutes; the setting will not be stored.
Another of the MP210X user-definable functions is the ability to adjust display brightness to stay
constant. This is accomplished by covering the light sensor. It is circular in shape and about 4 mm
in diameter. After covering the sensor (for instance, with a piece of masking tape), the arrow keys
can be used to set the brightness to the desired intensity.
