Frequently Asked Questions
The system provides four Gigabit Ethernet ports (Intel I350-AM4), each supporting IEEE 802.3at PoE+ delivering up to 25W per port; four USB 3.2 Gen2 ports with screw-lock; one DisplayPort++ (up to 4096 x 2160 @ 60Hz) and one HDMI 1.4b (up to 3840 x 2160 @ 30Hz); two isolated CAN 2.0 ports supporting SocketCAN in Linux; one software-programmable RS-232/422/485 port (COM1); three 3-wire RS-232 ports or one RS-422/485 port (COM2/3/4); and 8-channel isolated digital input plus 8-channel isolated digital output (4 channels each on the motherboard and 4 channels each on the MezIO module).
The system accepts a wide-range 8V to 35V DC input via a 3-pin pluggable terminal block, which also carries the ignition (IGN) signal. Applying voltage over 35V will damage the system. The unit includes built-in ignition power control for automotive deployments.
Operating temperature is -40°C to 70°C, with storage temperature of -40°C to 85°C and humidity tolerance of 10% to 90% non-condensing. A wide-temperature SSD is required for sub-zero or over-60°C operation. The system is E-Mark certified, complies with EN 50121 (EN 50155 EMC), and meets CE/FCC Class A per EN 55032 and EN 55035. It is also rated for EN 50155:2017/IEC 61373 Category I, Class B vibration and shock (body mounted).
The system has one SO-DIMM socket supporting up to 16GB of DDR5-4800 SDRAM, and one M.2 2280 M-key slot for SATA-only SSD storage (NVMe is not supported in this slot).
The POC-751VTC has two full-size mini-PCIe slots with conduction-cooled heatsinks for WiFi/4G/5G modules, each with a dedicated SIM card slot. SMA antenna openings are provided on the side panels for external antenna installation. Optional mPCIe-to-M.2 adapter cards (mPCIe-M2B, mPCIe-M2E, mPCIe-M2M) are available for installing M.2-format wireless or NVMe modules in the mini-PCIe slot.
The system has been tested with Microsoft Windows 10 LTSC 2021 (x64), Microsoft Windows 11 IoT Enterprise 22H2 64-bit, and Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS or other Linux distributions with kernel version 5.19 or higher. For Linux, users may need to manually compile and install the graphics or Ethernet controller driver if not embedded in the kernel. Drivers, including the WDT_DIO package for watchdog timer and DIO control, are available for download from Neousys.
The system measures 176mm (W) x 116mm (D) x 64mm (H) and weighs 1.7kg. It supports horizontal-type wall mounting (standard) and vertical-type wall mounting (optional accessory).
Yes. The system provides API functions (GetStatusPoEPort, EnablePoEPort, DisablePoEPort) that let software turn each of the four PoE+ ports on or off individually, useful for power device fault-recovery or power reset. These functions are part of the Neousys WDT_DIO driver package.
Yes. The system includes a hardware watchdog timer (WDT) that resets the system if the timer expires without being reset by software. Neousys provides a WDT_DIO driver package with function APIs (InitWDT, SetWDT, StartWDT, ResetWDT, StopWDT) for Windows 10 x64 and WOW64. The WDT can also be configured in BIOS for boot-time supervision.
How-to Guides
- Disassemble the system enclosure by removing the front I/O panel screws, bottom screws, rear panel screws, DIO/COM port panel hex bolts, and separating the panels and MezIO module as described in the manual.
- Remove the two screws securing the DRAM/M.2 heat spreader and lift it off.
- Locate the SO-DIMM slot on the motherboard.
