1.
Ensure that the DC power source is switched off via a disconnecting device (circuit
breaker), in order to ensure that no power is flowing from the external DC power
source during the connection procedure.
2.
Connect at first the wire for “Functional Earth stud” (Figure 21, pos. 6) to an
appropriate “common earth” connection point.
3.
Connect the Phoenix power terminal prepared as described in the subsection 7.3.1
“Cabling” to the DC input connector (Figure 9 and Figure 11 marked X101) of the KBox
C-103-NGSF. The DC input connector is located on the front side and is marked
“24VDC”.
4.
Connect the other ends of the DC power wires to the connections of the DC main power
supply. Pay attention to the polarity of the connections.
5.
Switch on the disconnecting device (circuit breaker) in order to apply voltage to
the terminals of the power wires.
8.2.
Power OFF/ON Procedure
As the KBox C-103-NGSF is equipped with an internal hold-up buffer, it can’t be powered
off/on immediately.
The buffer time depends on the power consumption and load on the KBox C-103-NGSF
processor and peripherals. Therefore the following procedure must be observed.
1.
Close your applications and perform an orderly shutdown (graceful shutdown).
2.
Remove power from the system.
3.
Wait until the green power LED (Figure 12, pos. 2) stops blinking.
4.
Reapply power.
Refer also to the subsection 3.3.7 “POWER Button and PWR LED”.
Do not disconnect the power from your system while it is powered up!
Performing a forced shutdown can lead to loss of data or other
undesirable effects!
8.3.
Operating System and Hardware Component Drivers
Your system can be supplied optionally with a pre-installed operating system.
If you have ordered your KBox C-103-NGSF with a pre-installed operating system, all
drivers are installed in accordance with the system configuration ordered (optional
hardware components). Your system is fully operational when you power it on for the
first time.
If you have ordered The KBox C-103-NGSF without a pre-installed operating system, you
will need to install the operating system and the appropriate drivers for the system
configuration you have ordered (optional hardware components) yourself.
You can download the relevant drivers for the installed hardware from
our web site at www.kontron.com by selecting the product.
Pay attention to the manufacturer specifications of the operating
system and the integrated hardware components.
