Desktop Mounting

The MPC-2190 comes with optional brackets that allow you to temporarily install the panel computer on a

horizontal surface, such as a desktop. Three round screws are required for each bracket. See the figure below

for detailed screw specifications and their torque value.

Desktop mounting of this sort is intended as a temporary workaround when configuring or testing the computer

before permanent installation. The desktop mounting brackets should not be used for permanent installations.

Place your MPC-2190 Series panel computer on a clean, flat, well-ventilated desktop. For better ventilation,

leave some space between the MPC-2190 Series and other equipment. Do not place equipment or objects on

top of the MPC-2190 Series panel computer, as this might damage the computer’s internal components.

Wall Mounting

The MPC-2190 Series comes with 14 optional clamp mounts that allow for installation onto a wall (where space

has been cut out to accommodate the rest of the hardware) or into computing stations where a flush mount is

desired. The maximum thickness of the surface to which the computer will be clamped is 11 mm. For

a secure mounting, all 14 clamps must be used. The clamp arms are fastened into slots on all four sides of the

MPC-2190. Use the short M4 SUS (stainless) screws to fasten the clamp arms to the MPC-2190 mounting slots,

as shown in the magnified inset in the diagram at the top of the next page. Next, use the clamps to fasten the

computer to its mounting point; please note the torque value that is shown in the figure inset below.
