Using the TabletKiosk Modular Expansion System
Your eo a7400 features the TabletKiosk Modular
Expansion System. This systems allows for the easy
integration of feature modules that enhance the
capabilities of your Tablet PC.

Based upon the Universal Serial Bus (USB), the
modules are hot swappable, meaning you do
not have to power down your system in order to
install/remove/exchange a module, and require no
additional drivers beyond those that may be required
by the device being added to the system (Barcode
scanner, magnetic card reader, etc.).

To add an expansion module:

1.

Remove the two Philips head screws holding
the Modular Expansion System port cover on
the top/back of the tablet in place.

2.

Remove the cover to expose the expansion port.

3.

Align the plug of the module you wish to install
and slide it into place.

4. Screw the two screws back into place to hold

the module securely.

5.

After a moment, Windows should detect the
module and load the required drivers, if they are
natively available within Windows, or prompt
you to install the drivers that came with the
module.

To remove or swap a module, simple follow the
same procedure, except replace the module you are
removing with either another module, or the Expansion
cover plate.

NOTE: If your module contains, or is attached to, a media card reader, external hard drive or other such
removable media device, be sure to eject the device as you would a standard USB attached data storage
device before removing it in order to prevent possible data loss/corruption. You can eject the device by
going down to the System Tray, tapping on the USB Device icon and the selecting the device from the list
you wish to eject.

Using the Built-in Cameras
Your eo a7400 comes with two built-in digital cameras. The front facing 2.0 Megapixel webcam
is designed for video conferencing and chatting, while the back facing 5.0 Megapixel camera is
for shooting still photos and videos.

Both cameras are USB Video standard compliant, and are made to function in any program
designed to use standard USB cameras, including Skype®. To get you started using the cameras,
there is a simple, lightweight application that comes preinstalled on the tablet called, simply,
Camera.

To launch Camera, double tap on its icon on the desktop, or if you do not have a desktop
shortcut for Camera, choose it from the Start Menu in the "All Programs > TabletKiosk" submenu.

When the application starts, you'll be presented with the main application interface.

Remember to screw the module into place
to prevent it from coming off while in use.
Be sure to store the screws that attached the
cover in a safe place so as not to lose them.
