If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return
merchandize authorization) number from your dealer. This allows
us to process your return more quickly.
4.
Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and
Replacement Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date
(such as your sales receipt) in a shippable container. A product

Chapter 1 General Information
1.1 Introduction
The TPC-1270 touch panel computer is state-of-the-art HMI (Human
Machine Interface). This 12.1" display operator interface is an x86-based
platform with these key features:
Fanless:
By using a low power processor, the system does not have to rely on fans,
which often are unreliable, and causes dust to circulate inside the equipment.
Bright Display:
The bright TFT LCD display suits industrial demands for clear interfaces.
Powerful Communication Capability:
The TPC-1270 provides powerful IO interface for easily communicating
with other devices. The IO interface includes serial ports, RS-485 port,
Ethernet and USB 2.0 support.
Embedded Windows Support:
In addition to the OS support of Windows XP, Advantech offers platform
support for XP embedded.

1.7 Panel Mounting
1. There is a piece of adhesive waterproof gasket on the Mg-AL
front bezel. Make sure the waterproof gasket is in position
before installing the TPC-1270 to the panel opening.
2. Install the TPC-1270 to the panel opening.
3. Find out the eight clampers and eight long screws in the
accessory pack. Hook those clampers to those holes around the
four sides of the bezel. Insert the screws to every clamper and
fasten them. These screws will then push on the mounting panel
and fix the unit.
4. The mounting panel thickness is suggested to be less than 10mm
(0.236 inch).

Chapter 5 Windows XP Embedded
TPC-1270 is in support of embedded windows platform. This section is
to state the important features, EWF and HORN, provided in windows
XP embedded.
5.1 EWF
EWF stands for Enhanced Write Filter. It provides an upper filter in the
storage device driver stack that redirects disk write operations to volatile
(RAM) or non-volatile (disk) storage. EWF protects a volume from write
access. The benefits are as the following.
Write-protect one or more partitions on your system.
Enable read-only media, such as CD-ROM or flash, to boot and run.
Prolong the lifespan of write-sensitive storage, such as CompactFlash.
TPC-1270 XPE provides EWF RAM RDG mode on system partition. All
wirte to system partition will be redirected to RMA once this mode is
enabled. This mode is manually enabled by customers after they finish
all their changes on system such as installing their applications or adjusting system setting.
Advantech provides a pair of utilities to operate EWF, OSLock and
OSUnLock. The setting is stated in the section later.
5.2 HORM
HORM stands for Hibernate Once Resume Many. In HORM environment, a single hibernation file is used to boot the system repeatedly. To
set a HORM environment, please follow the steps below.
Please make sure EWF is disabled. You can run OSUnLock to disable
EWF.
Enable hibernation support:
Run ‘power options’ in control panel, and then select ‘Enable Hibernation’ in hibernation pane.
TPC-1270 User Manual
38
Enable EWF:
Run OSLock, and then system reboot automatically.
Open those software that customers want to directly use after system
resume from hibernation.
Hibernate via Advantech HORM utility:
Please Click Start Menu->All Programs->Advantech->HORM
HORM environment remains all along unless the following events occur:
Run EWF commit command (ewfmgr c: -commit) and then reboot system.
Select “Discard hibernation file” by clicking F8 when system is starting
up
Also, HORM cannot fit your system if free space in C partition is not
enough. The hibernation file required is dependent on the RAM size you
use on the system. In other words, the hibernation file is 512MB that is
the same as memory size used on TPC-1270H-P1E or TPC-1270H-C1E.
5.3 Advantech Utilities
TPC-1270 provides the useful utilities for users to configure the HORM
and EWF.
5.3.1 Version Information
Start menu-> All Programs -> Advantech
This states the current XPE runtime information including hardware platform, version, build number, release date, XPE QFEs installed in component database and XP Pro Patches you installed manually.
39
Chapter 5
5.3.2 OSLock and OSUnLock
The two utilities assist users to enable or disable EWF. Please go to Start
Menu-> All Programs-> Advantech. The default setting of EWF is disabled. Users can protect C partition from any disk writing via OSLock
that is to enable EWF RAM REG Mode. In this mode, any changes on C
partition including modification on files or registry will be redirected to
memory, thus these changes will be discarded in the next system startup.
To exit this environment is via OSUnLock. Please visit MSDN website
for further information about EWF.
5.3.3 HORM
This is to create HORM environment. Please go to Start Menu-> All Programs-> Advantech. This utility firstly dismounts all local physical volumes that are not protected by EWF. It requires users to input the volume
list.
Please follow the steps before running this utility to create full HORM
environment.
Enable Hibernation via Power Options in Control Panel
Make C: partition EWF-enabled via OSLock
Make sure that all volumes to be dismounted are not in use.

A.2 COM4 Setting
The serial port COM4 on the TPC-1270 is adjustable. It can be set to RS232, RS-422 or RS-485. This port is designed with auto data flow control
capability. In other word, the TPC-1270 can automatically detect the data
flow direction at this port when the two wired RS-485 communication is
activated.

Watchdog Timer
Programming
Appendix B WDT Programming
B.1 Overview
The TPC-1270 cards’ watchdog timer can be used to monitor system software operation and take corrective action if the software fails to function
after the programmed period. This section describes the operation of the
watchdog timer, and how to program it.
The watchdog timer is built into the super I/O controller W83627HF. It
provides the following functions for user programming:
• Can be enabled and disabled by user's program.
• Timer can be set from 1 to 255 seconds or 1 to 255 minutes.
• Generates an interrupt or resets signal if the software fails to reset the
timer after time-out.
TPC-1270 User Manual
46
B.2 Watchdog Timer Programming
The I/O port address of the watchdog timer is 2E(hex) and 2F(hex), 2E
(hex) is the address port. 2F(hex) is the data port. You must first assign
the address of register by writing address value into address port 2E(hex),
then write/read data to/from the assigned register through data port 2F
(hex).

The amount of the count, in seconds
or minutes, depends on the value
set in register F5 (hex). This number
decides how long the watchdog
timer waits for strobe before generating an interrupt or reset signal.
Writing a new value to this register
can reset the timer to count with the
new value.

means timer is "time out".
