Access to device components

To be able to replace certain device components, you must first gain access to the interior of the industrial PC.

If your device with generation -0060 contains an NVMe™ M.2 SSD, you may only replace it if you have previously shut down and switched off the device.

To do this, follow the steps:

1. Pull the release handle upward to release the housing cover lock (section A).
2. Pull the housing cover forward by the handle until it moves freely at the bottom (section B). While doing so, hold the cover firmly so that it does not fall off.

4. Loosen the knurled screw (1) of the card locating holder (2) (section D).

To reinstall the card locating holder afterwards, follow the steps below:

1. Release all plastic elements of the card locating holder (section A).
2. Place the card locating holder again in the slots provided in the industrial PC (section B).
3. Keep the card locating holder pressed onto the edge of the industrial PC while tightening the knurled screw again (section C).
