Common Error Codes & System Events
- Event ID: 100
- System startup failure — the operating system failed to boot correctly, possibly due to corrupted system files or hardware fault.
Check hard disk integrity, verify boot sequence in BIOS, and restore or reinstall the operating system if necessary. - Event ID: 200
- Watchdog timeout — the watchdog timer has triggered due to a system hang or unresponsive application.
Restart the Panel PC, check for software conflicts or runaway processes, and verify that the watchdog configuration in the application is correct. - Event ID: 300
- Fan failure — the internal cooling fan has stopped or is running below the required speed threshold.
Inspect and clean the fan assembly. Replace the fan if it is defective to prevent thermal shutdown. - Event ID: 400
- Temperature warning — internal temperature has exceeded the defined warning threshold.
Check ambient temperature and ventilation around the panel. Clean air filters and ensure the unit is not installed in a location exceeding the rated operating temperature. - Event ID: 500
- Hard disk error — a read/write error or hardware fault has been detected on the internal hard disk drive.
Back up data immediately if possible. Run disk diagnostics and replace the hard disk drive if errors are confirmed. - Event ID: 600
- Ethernet communication failure — the network interface is not detecting a valid link or is unable to communicate with the network.
Check Ethernet cable connections, verify network switch port status, and confirm IP address configuration in the operating system network settings. - Event ID: 700
- Power supply undervoltage — the 24 V DC supply voltage has dropped below the minimum operating threshold.
Measure the supply voltage at the power connector. Ensure the power supply unit is rated correctly and check for loose or corroded connections.

Troubleshooting
Display remains blank after power on
Check that 24 V DC is present at the power supply connector. Verify that the backlight is not simply dimmed or disabled via software settings. Inspect internal fuses if accessible.
Restore correct supply voltage if missing. If voltage is present, the backlight inverter or display panel may be faulty and require replacement. Check BIOS settings for display output configuration.
Touchscreen does not respond to input
Verify that the touchscreen driver is correctly installed in the operating system. Check for physical damage or contamination on the touch surface. Recalibrate the touchscreen via the operating system control panel.
Reinstall or update the touchscreen driver. Clean the touch surface with a soft cloth. If calibration fails repeatedly, the touchscreen overlay may need to be replaced.
Panel PC fails to boot into Windows
Listen for hard disk activity during startup. Enter BIOS to confirm the hard disk is detected. Run a disk diagnostic tool from a bootable USB or CD to check disk health.
If the hard disk is not detected, reseat the drive connector. If disk errors are found, restore the system from a backup image or replace the hard disk and reinstall the operating system.
Ethernet communication is not established
Check the Ethernet cable and confirm the link LED on the RJ45 port is active. Verify the IP address configuration in Windows network settings. Test connectivity with a ping command to the target device.
Replace the Ethernet cable if no link LED is present. Correct the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway settings. If the network adapter is not recognized, reinstall the network driver.
Unit shuts down unexpectedly or restarts
Check the ambient temperature around the installation and verify that ventilation is adequate. Review Windows event logs for thermal warnings or watchdog events. Inspect the internal fan for correct operation.
Improve ventilation or reduce ambient temperature. Clean dust from air vents and the fan assembly. If the fan is faulty, replace it. If the issue persists, check the power supply for voltage instability.
