The TPC-315 supports Windows 10, Android, and Linux. Advantech also offers pre-built embedded OS images, including WIN10 LTSC V6.08 B018 (TPC-300 High and Value) and AdvLinuxTu V2.0.6 for the UNO/TPC series.
The TPC-315 supports VESA mount, desktop, wall, or panel mount installation.
The TPC-315 measures 383.2 x 307.3 x 66.5 mm (15.09 x 12.10 x 2.62 in) and weighs 5.8 kg (12.79 lbs) net. The panel cutout dimensions are 374.5 x 298.5 mm (14.74 x 11.75 in).
The TPC-315 uses a 15" (4:3) XGA TFT LED LCD with a maximum resolution of 1024 x 768, 16.2M colors, 300 cd/m2 luminance, a 176°/176° viewing angle, 2000:1 contrast ratio, and a 70,000 hour backlight life. Touch control is 5-wire resistive with a lifespan of 36 million touches at a single point.
Wireless, cellular, and GPS support is available via Advantech's iDoor technology and mini PCIe/M.2 expansion, for example the PCM-24S2WF-CE (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi with BT4.1), and the PCM-24S34G-ABE / PCM-24S34G-EBE LTE/HSPA+/GPRS modules.
How-to Guides
- Identify the available M.2 slots: M.2 M Key 2280 (supports SATA or NVMe PCIe x4) and M.2 B Key 2242 (supports SATA/PCIe, also compatible with 3042/3052 5G modules).
- Select a compatible module based on the intended use (storage vs. 5G/SIM module).
- Insert the module into the corresponding M.2 slot inside the chassis, following standard M.2 installation practice.
- If installing a 5G module, also install the SIM into the M.2 B Key 4G/5G SIM slot.
- Locate the default HDD/SSD bay on the rear of the unit (marked as position A in the rear view diagram).
- Install a 2.5" SATA SSD or HDD up to 7mm thick into the bay.
- Secure the drive per the bay's mounting mechanism.
- Locate the iDoor slot on the rear I/O panel (marked as position B in the rear view diagram).
- Choose a compatible iDoor module, such as isolated RS-422/485, isolated RS-232, Gigabit Ethernet, isolated Digital I/O, CANBus, Wi-Fi, or LTE/GPRS modules.
- Install the selected iDoor module into the slot.
- Confirm regional certification compliance with Advantech if the module changes the system's RF or communication characteristics.
- Choose a mounting method: VESA mount, desktop stand, wall mount, or panel mount.
- For panel mounting, cut a panel opening of 374.5 x 298.5 mm (14.74 x 11.75 in) to match the TPC-315 cutout dimensions.
- Secure the unit using the appropriate mounting hardware for the chosen method.
- Confirm the power source supplies 24 V DC ± 20%.
- Connect the power cable to the power receptor on the rear I/O panel (marked as position I in the rear view diagram).
- Use an appropriate power supply, such as the 96PSA-A120W24T2-3 120W 24V DC unit, along with a compatible regional power cable.
