This document is an installation guide for accessories of the Dell Precision Compact system, identified by Regulatory Model D16U and Regulatory Type D16U001. It provides detailed instructions for mounting the Precision Compact system using various accessories, including a wall mount, a desk mount, and an all-in-one stand. The guide emphasizes safe installation practices and outlines the necessary steps for each accessory.
The Dell Precision Compact Accessories Installation Guide serves as a comprehensive manual for users to correctly and safely install various mounting solutions for their Dell Precision Compact system. These accessories are designed to enhance the versatility and ergonomic placement of the compact system in different environments, such as on a wall, under a desk, or integrated into an all-in-one stand. The guide ensures that users can effectively utilize these accessories to optimize their workspace and system accessibility.
The guide details the installation process for three primary accessories:
Precision Compact Wall Mount: This accessory allows the Precision Compact system to be securely mounted on a wall, freeing up desk space and providing a clean, integrated look. The installation involves placing the VESA mount on the wall, securing it with four self-tapping screws (M4x13), and then attaching the AC adapter sleeve to the VESA mount with two screws (M3x6). The chassis is then prepared by installing four step screws (M4x4), which are then aligned with notches on the wall mount to secure the computer. Finally, the AC adapter is placed and wrapped within the AC adapter sleeve, with retaining tabs inserted into appropriate holes.
Precision Compact Desk Mount: Designed to mount the Precision Compact system under a desk, this accessory helps to keep the workspace clear and organized. The installation process is similar to the wall mount, starting with placing the VESA mount under the desk and securing it with four self-tapping screws (M4x13). Four step screws (M4x4) are installed on the chassis, which is then aligned with the notches on the desk mount to secure the computer. The AC adapter sleeve is then secured under the desk with two screws (M3x6), and the AC adapter is placed and wrapped within the sleeve, with retaining tabs inserted into appropriate holes.
Precision Compact All-in-One Stand - CFS22: This stand integrates the Precision Compact system with a monitor, creating a streamlined all-in-one solution. The installation begins by securing the AC adapter sleeve (an optional component) to the all-in-one stand with two screws (M3x6). Four step screws (M4x4) are installed on the chassis, which is then aligned with the notches on the all-in-one stand to mount the computer. A cable cover is then aligned with slots on the computer and slid into place to lock it. The AC adapter is placed on the AC adapter sleeve, wrapped around it, and its retaining tabs are inserted into the holes on the sleeve. Finally, the AC adapter sleeve is positioned behind the desk.
Each installation section includes clear, step-by-step instructions accompanied by illustrative diagrams to guide the user through the process. The guide also provides important preliminary steps, such as saving and closing all applications, shutting down the system, and disconnecting all cables and peripherals, to ensure safety and prevent data loss or hardware damage during installation.
While the guide primarily focuses on installation, it implicitly supports maintenance by providing clear instructions for disassembling the system from its mounts, should the need arise for servicing, upgrades, or relocation. The initial steps of disconnecting power and peripherals are crucial for safe handling during any maintenance activity. The modular nature of the mounting solutions, as detailed in the installation steps, suggests that components can be easily detached and reattached, facilitating access to the Precision Compact system for maintenance.
The document includes "Notes, cautions, and warnings" on page 2 to highlight critical information:
These warnings are integrated throughout the installation steps, particularly regarding disconnecting network cables and handling the system safely. For instance, users are cautioned to unplug the network cable from the system first, then from the network device, to prevent damage. The guide also advises placing the monitor on a clean and soft surface when removing its stand, indicating a focus on protecting components during the process.
The final chapter provides instructions on how to contact Dell for support, including sales, technical support, or customer service issues. Users are directed to Dell.com/support, where they can select their support category, verify their country/region, and choose the appropriate service or support link. For users without an active internet connection, the guide suggests checking the purchase invoice, packing slip, bill, or Dell product catalog for contact information. This ensures that users have access to assistance if they encounter any issues during installation or usage.
