BASE MOUNT UPGRADE KIT  
On rear edge of the stand assembly for  
desktop mount application, there is a rear connect  
cover. Either a 2nd LCD display panel option LM-  
6201 or a VFD customer display option PD-2501  
can be installed here after removing this cover.  
Please note that for KS-6217 and KS-  
6217U, there could be much more restrictions to the tilt angle range for the  
main unit due to larger dimensions of the LCD panel if base mount upgrade kit  
mounted. Investigation for the acceptability of such kind of restrictions must  
be taken before decision to install a base mount upgrade kit to these models.  
To remove the rear connect cover in slim base please refer to the  
inside view of the base unit at right and use a flat  
head screwdriver to pick the plastic hook plate of the  
rear connect cover from inside behind the UPS  
battery.  
The rear connect cover of universal base can  
be removed by pushing the plastic hook plate of it  
from inside as marked by white arrow in the right

DESKTOP MOUNTINGKS6115:258~355  
Matching Holes  
Round Part  
Slot Part  
Matching Pegs  
Match the matching pegs on the back of the main unit against the  
matching holes on the stand assembly. First aim the matching pegs toward the  
upper round part of the hole and make sure that all pegs are inside the holes.  
Then slide the main unit down to move the pegs into the lower slot part of the  
holes till it clicks. Note that all the cables come out of the stand from the lower  
edge and won’ t get trapped by this mounting operation. If later on you want to  
remove the main unit from the stand, you’ ll have to press down the  
lock/release button on back of the stand at the time lifting the main unit.  
For desk top/counter application, the total dimension of slim base KS-  
6215 occupies a space of 378 mm wide, 304 mm deep and 274 to 364 mm high  
per main unit tilt angle. The universal base KS-6215 takes a space of 378 mm  
wide, 304 mm deep and 304 to 394 mm high. The slim base KS-6217 is 410  
mm wide, 342 to 304 mm deep and 290 to 400 mm high. The universal base  
KS-6217 is 410 mm wide, 342 to 304 mm deep and 320 to 490 mm high. The  
minimum height of above models shall be increased by about 4.5 mm if  
InfraRed type touch panel is used.KS-6115U:294.5~391.5  
WALL MOUNTING  
The wall mount model is delivered without any base but with a wall  
mount kit. Please follow the installation guide that comes with the wall mount  
bracket to fix the wall mount bracket on wall and then hang the main unit with  
the matching pegs into the matching holes on wall mount bracket.  
Please note that since there is no base for the wall mount model there  
can be no base installed device nor base mount kit. Consequently, the mass  
storage device for KS-6215/KS-6217 series in wall mount application has to be  
either the uDOC or the 2.5” HDD in main unit unless the type of wall mount  
kit is checked and found to fit the usage.  
Part 12  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The area required for wall mount application is determined by the  
main unit dimensions and is 378 mm in width and 312 mm in height for KS-  
6215 and is 410 mm in width and 355 mm in height for KS-6217.  
CONNECTING CABLES  
To re-assemble the main unit with stand assembly for operation,  
please connect all required cables to the appropriate connectors. Please make  
sure that each connector is connected to the correct port with the correct  
orientation. Damages due to incorrect connection or orientation are not  
covered by product warranty!  
Some connectors like the LAN connector have to be gently inserted  
until a click is heard. It is recommended that connectors such as the external  
VGA and LPT connector be screwed into place once seated. The 4 COM ports  
are of 10 pin RJ45 format and the DB9 to RJ45 conversion cables in  
accessories should be used for regular RS232 cable to connect through.  
Adjust the slack of each cable and close the cable cover. Re-adjust the  
tilt angle of the screen for best viewing.  
Connect the cables to appropriate external devices through the cable  
exit at the bottom of stand assembly. Please make sure that each connector has  
to be connected to the right device in the right way.  
CAUTION: On doing any insertion or extraction of any connector, please  
always hold the connector head itself instead of pulling on the  
cable wire. Failure to do this could damage the cable and jack  
that is considered as an artificial destruction and is not  
covered by the warranty.  
OPERATING SYSTEM RECOVERY  
For KS systems with operating system in the uDOC, once the uDOC  
is damaged for any reason, the thin client may fail to boot. A bootable new  
uDOC will be required to have the workstation back to work. Please  
follow instructions given by the System Integrator to deal with situations like  
that. One more advice for uDOC application is that in spite of the fact that it is  
used in the way like an ordinary HDD, usual utilities such as FDISK.EXE or  
FORMAT.COM shall never be used on uDOC otherwise the boot sector of  
operating system itself may be damaged and causing the uDOC no longer  
bootable.  
For KS systems preloaded with Windows XP Pro or WEPOS on HDD,  
Posiflex provides recovery CD delivered with the touch terminal for the  
preloaded operating system. The System Integrator shall take care of software  
restoration after OS recovered. A Posiflex supplied USB interface CDROM  
drive will be required for such action. Other brand CDROM drive may require  
its specific driver different from what supported in the recovery CD. Should  
Part 13  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
there be any difficulty in using the Posiflex supplied USB interface CDROM  
drive in recovery, please try disable the USB 2.0 function of system BIOS  
setup by going to “Integrated Peripherals” then “VIA OnChip PCI Device” and  
set the item OnChip EHCI Controller” to be “Disable” for the recovery  
process and make it back to “Enable” after the process.  
Please use the recovery CD in rescue operation only. Using it  
otherwise may wipe out whatever stored in the HDD! All upgrade devices  
drivers needed for manual installation in usual way are available in the  
subfolder \drivers” in OS recovered HDD and the latest versions of these  
required drivers will be available on our web: http://www.posiflex.com.tw.  
Then follow instructions from your system integrator for software recovery.  
OPERATING SYSTEM INSTALLATION  
This product is a highly professionalized equipment. The installation  
of an OS into a machine without any preloaded OS could constitute major  
difficulty for average user or obstacle by possibly unintentional negligence  
even for PC veterans to accomplish such a task. Therefore, OS installation into  
a system without preloaded OS is highly discouraged. Posiflex Technologies,  
Inc. shall not be responsible for any technical support to questions arisen due  
to non-preloaded OS.

USING THE TOUCH TERMINAL  
APPLICATION ENVIRONMENT  
It is very important that you check the following operational  
guidelines:  
Ventilation  
This terminal must NOT be operated in an environment with  
restricted ventilation. There must be at least 25 mm air clearance around any  
top or side ventilation holes with a free flow of air around the unit at ALL  
times for the installation.  
Operating Environment  
The equipment must not be operated or stored in extremes of both  
temperature and humidity/moisture. (Operating range 5°C to 40°C and up to  
80% humidity – non condensing, max. wet bulb 26°C)  
UPS Battery (option)  
General care:  
The UPS battery is consumables beyond product warranty. Please  
definitely observe the alerts in beginning of this manual. If the equipment is to  
be powered off for more than few days, please always disconnect the battery  
from the system. Reconnect it and turn on the system to recharge the battery  
for 1 ~ 2 hours every 3 months for temperature lower than 30°C. Recharge for  
1 ~ 2 hours every month for temperature over 30°C. Temperature above 40°C  
must be strictly avoided as it could cause termination of battery life and  
unexpected result even if the battery is not in work. The UPS battery can  
support basically the data preservation and smooth running of the system  
during intermittent or few minutes (15 ~ 30 min. depending on loading and  
battery condition) power failure.  
Battery replacement:  
In the preloaded OS in HDD for a KS system, there is a built in utility  
Power Manager that will interface the UPS battery monitor status with user.  
When battery monitor disables the battery charging as designed while the UPS  
function of the system is originally enabled, in other words the UPS battery is  
found out of order if actually installed, there will be a popup message as the  
picture at right asking the user to agree disabling the  
UPS function. The system will operate under  
deactivated UPS function no matter agreed or not.  
However, the monitoring goes on and the popup  
message will come back on next system power up boot if not agreed. In any  
case, please replace the used up UPS battery at power off if the battery is well  
connected there but found inoperable by such messages.  
Part 15  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Emergency treatment:  
The battery is constructed maintenance free and leakproof. It is well  
protected in KS system as long as the ambient temperature remains below  
30°C and the ventilation of the KS system remains free. However, should any  
accident happen and the sulfuric acid from the battery spills on skin or clothing,  
wash immediately with water. If the acid comes in contact with eyes, rinse  
eyes with large amount of clean water and see a doctor immediately. A larger  
external battery may be connected to give an extended operation. Please check  
your dealer about this capability when required.  
WARNING:  
If there are any signs of over charging or leakage of electrolyte  
please contact your dealer immediately  
Power Supply  
The operating voltage range of the power adaptor should cover the  
local power supply for proper operation. The power cable, the power outlet  
and any power fusing arrangements must conform to local safety regulations.  
Please never do any connection / disconnection when system is still  
powered on. Please always keep the external power adaptor in a free air  
circulation.  
POWER ON/OFF  
Touch Open Cover  
A gentle tap on the touch open cover at  
left side of the main unit will open the cover and  
show the power switch, thumb wheel knob for  
brightness adjust and a PS/2 keyboard jack. It is  
preferable to keep this door closed through daily  
operation. The LCD brightness can also be  
controlled through software setting. Please note that some operating systems  
may inhibit the use of the PS/2 keyboard port if there is no device connected  
during boot up.  
There must always be at least 10 seconds waiting before switching on  
again once the system is powered off successfully.  
Power Indicator  
The power status of the system is indicated by the backlight of the  
logo. When the logo lights in green, the AC power is standby for the system to  
turn on. The logo turns to blue when the system is powered on.

Hardware Power Switch  
The power switch located in the touch open cover of the main unit is a  
tactile pushbutton switch. This switch controls the power on/off of the system.  
This switch turns the system on when pushed only when external power is  
present. This switch turns the system off when pushed again during power on  
status. However, if the system hangs due to any reason such as software  
resource conflict a simple push on the switch may fail to turn off the power. In  
this case, please utilize the forced power off feature by pressing the switch  
and holding for within 10 seconds. In case the turmoil is so vigorous that some  
hardware registers may be confused causing trouble for system restart or even  
this forced power off, please disconnect the UPS battery if installed and the  
AC power supply for few minutes. This may allow all hardware registers to  
reset.  
This switch can also be programmed as an ON only switch. That  
means, if the application program issues a command compliant with the KS  
series technical manual, this switch will always turn the system on when  
activated, but will not power off the system when pushed again (the forced  
power off feature will not work in this mode). When using this feature, please  
make sure that the software application has the ability to power off the  
machine. In preloaded Windows, “Posiflex Power Switch Manager” in  
“Posiflex Tools” in the Program Files helps managing these functions.  
Software Support Features  
The KS series provides a software power off command for application  
program maneuvers. The KS also provides a specific means for the software to  
detect if the system is working on external or UPS battery power. Due to this  
feature, compatible software applications have the ability to change operating  
conditions when running on standard/backup power. The software programmer  
may take reference from the KS technical manual to apply such features.

Automatic Power On Control  
The system may also turn on according to some preset conditions  
such as Modem Ring Up and Alarm Clock Wake Up or LAN Wake Up.  
To utilize Modem Ring Up or Alarm Clock Wake Up function, the  
user should enter the CMOS setup by pressing “Del” key at system boot up,  
choose for “PM Wake Up Events” in “Power Management Setup” and make  
the “Ring Power Up Control” enabled for Modem Ring Up or select the  
“Power Up by Alarm” for Alarm Clock Wake Up. Save the configuration and  
exit the CMOS setup program. The Preset Power On Control will then be  
ready. For LAN wakeup, an operating caller system connected through LAN to  
the system is required. It also requires a qualified networking technician to  
check the LAN chip ID of the system for the caller system to wake up.  
When the KS system is turned off after a successful boot up, the  
preset automatic power on functions will keep monitoring for the preset  
conditions and turn on the system when the preset conditions are met.  
Please note that if the KS system is improperly turned off before a  
complete boot up procedure, the above preset power on control functions will  
be disabled until next turning off after a complete boot up.  
DISPLAY ISSUES  
Main LCD Display  
For best viewing result please set your display resolution at 1024 x  
768 with high color for KS-6215 and set it at 1280 x 1024 with high color for  
KS-6217.  
In configuration of system memory, max. 64 MB can be shared as the  
video memory.  
VGA Port  
The VGA port in the KS system supports TM4115 touch monitor,  
LM6112 LCD monitor or TM7112 touch monitor if there is no base mount 2nd  
LCD display. This port supports either mirror mode (identical image) or  
extended mode dual display function for WinXP. To support the DC power to  
these Posiflex monitor, use the DC adaptor to connect into the monitor (for  
TM-4115 / TM-7112) or its VGA cable (for LM-6112) or use Posiflex VGA +  
power cable and set an internal jumper in KS main unit to supply the required  
power through the VGA connector (for LM-6101). Do not connect other  
monitor to this port before the power in this port is disabled.  
CUSTOMER DISPLAY  
Please follow the instructions on the manual that comes along with  
the customer display PD-2501 or PD-2602 when it is installed.

SERIAL PORTS – COM1/2/3/4  
In KS system, there are 4 serial ports in form of 10 pin RJ45 jacks  
available. All serial ports can supply a +5 V DC through pin 9 after proper  
jumper setting change. All ports are standard RS232 serial ports after the  
conversion cables as status at delivery. Since there are only 2 conversion  
cables delivered, purchase for more conversion cables from Posiflex  
Technologies, Inc. may be required if the user need to use more than 2 COM  
ports.  
When a serial Modem is to be used in KS system, it is most  
recommended to use COM2/3/4 port for this purpose to eliminate possible  
hardware resource conflict and the MODEM ring up function can be supported.  
For models using RS232 interface touch control such as the Infra Red type  
touch, COM2 is occupied and covered. Please never try to open the cover.  
Otherwise the product warranty is voided.  
SOUND PORTS  
The audio port in KS system is arranged to have an  
internal audio speaker with maximum audio power of 2 W at  
lower left corner of the main unit but no direct access port in  
the main unit. The external access to audio ports can be found  
in the side mount option kit like SD-400 with a Microphone  
in and a stereo line out jacks at its bottom surface as circled in  
the right picture. The internal speaker will be automatically disconnected when  
a plug is inserted in the line output jack.  
uDOC  
If a uDOC is installed, it operates as an ordinary USB interface HDD  
with limited capacity without moving parts inside. However, usual utilities  
such as FDISK.EXE or FORMAT.COM must never be used on uDOC.  
HDD & SATA PORTS  
The 2.5” HDD if installed in the main unit is the master device on the  
primary IDE channel (or channel 0) in the system. The HDD installed in the  
base unit is connected to the system through Serial ATA (SATA) port and is  
set to IDE mode for data transfer. There are 2 SATA ports in the system I/O  
connection area. The device connected to the lower port will be detected as  
“Ch. 2 M.” and the upper one will be detected as “Ch. 3 M.” in “Advanced  
BIOS Features” à“Hard Disk Boot Priority” of BIOS setup. Both IDE or  
SATA controller can be set to “Disabled” in “Integrated Peripherals” à“VIA  
OnChip IDE Device” of BIOS setup when required.

TOUCH PANEL  
All paragraphs below are applicable for models with touch panel only.  
The user of those models without touch panel can ignore them and consider  
this user’s manual ends here.  
Mouse Emulation  
The touch panel in KS system uses internal USB interface as standard  
and occupies no external port. Only the optional InfraRed type touch panel of  
KS-6215 uses RS232 interface and occupies COM2 port. When the touch  
driver is properly installed, this touch panel works exactly like a standard  
mouse for each interface. However, if the system is running under safe mode,  
the touch panel calibration may become unsatisfactory due to disabled drivers.  
It is recommended to use a standard USB mouse or keyboard in this mode.  
All the below mentioned mouse emulation functions can be  
manipulated through relevant software. The system can give a beep and a click  
on the left button of a mouse at the point when the touch panel is touched. If  
the point touched is dragged across the screen surface, it works as the mouse  
drag and drop feature. If the point is touched, released and touched within a  
short time interval, it is double-clicking left button of the mouse. To obtain the  
effect like clicking on the right button of a mouse, touching any point on the  
screen surface after touching the right-click sticky button results as a click on  
the right button of the mouse at that point.  
Posiflex USB Touch Manager  
A program named “Posiflex USB Touch Manager” and a right-click  
sticky button tool in the program group “Posiflex USB Touch Tools” is  
installed in the preloaded Windows system with a USB interface touch panel  
controller. This program can also be obtained by download from the  
POSIFLEX web site.  
RS232 Touch Controller  
If the KS system purchased is the leading edge Infra Red type touch  
models, the touch controller is of RS232 interface. The “Posiflex Touch  
Terminal Manager” above should be disregarded. In these models within KS-  
6215, the COM2 position of the system will be covered in the connection area.  
Removal of this cover will void the product warranty!!  
Once the RS232 touch controller driver is installed, the user can  
utilize it to control the mouse emulation. Please click “Start”, “Settings”  
“Control Panel” and Elo Touchscreen” or just click the “elo” icon in tool tray  
to engage this utility. However, with this touch controller  
driver, certain display mode like full screen display of  
Windows DOS box should be avoided.
