Common faults and solutions of industrial computer

industrial computers are now widely used in various industrial occasions. It is unavoidable that we encounter failures in the process of using industrial computers. There are many accessories in industrial computers, and there are many reasons for failures.

1. During the operation of the industrial computer, it is often unable to operate normally due to some hardware or software failures, which seriously affects the normal use of the industrial computer. According to the cause of the failure of the industrial computer, the failure of the industrial computer can be divided into hardware failure and software failure.
Hardware failure: IPC hardware failure refers to the failure caused by poor contact, performance degradation, damage to electronic components or mechanical problems in hardware such as board components and external devices in the IPC. The hardware failure of the industrial computer usually causes the industrial computer to fail to boot normally, the system to fail to start normally, or a certain device to fail to run normally, freeze, blue screen, etc. In severe cases, it is often accompanied by overheating, ringing, electric sparks and other phenomena.
Software failure: Software failure refers to the failure of the industrial computer to work normally due to incompatible system software, problems with the software itself, improper operation and use, system infection of viruses or improper allocation of the industrial computer system. IPC software failures usually cause the system to fail to start normally, the software to fail to run normally, crash, blue screen and other phenomena.

2. There are many reasons for the failure of the industrial computer. Generally speaking, the common failures mainly include the following aspects.
Improper operation: Improper operation refers to mistakenly deleting files or illegally shutting down. Improper operation usually causes the industrial computer software to fail to run or the system to fail to start. Such failures can be repaired as long as the deleted or damaged files are restored.
Jumper setting error: The jumper setting error refers to the fault that the device cannot work normally due to the adjustment of the jumper switch of the device to change the working parameters of the device. For example, in an industrial computer connected to two hard disks, due to the wrong jumper setting of the hard disk, it will cause the two hard disks to conflict and fail to start normally. Fixing such failures is usually done by setting the jumper to the correct setting.
Corrupted application or missing files: Corrupted applications or missing application files often cause applications to not function properly. The usual way to fix such failures is to uninstall the app and then reinstall the app.
Poor power supply: Poor power supply means that the power supply voltage is insufficient or the power supply is low and no power is supplied, which will cause failures such as failure to start the machine and the continuous restart of the industrial computer. Often a power supply replacement is required to fix such failures.
Poor connection of cables or connectors: Poor connection of cables or connectors will usually cause the industrial computer to fail to boot or the device to work normally. If the hard disk signal cable is in poor contact with the SATA interface, the hard disk will not work and the system cannot be started. Such failures are usually repaired by reconnecting the wires or connectors.
Component quality problems: Problems with component quality usually cause the industrial computer to fail to boot, or fail to start, or a certain component does not work. Replacement of faulty parts is usually required to fix such failures.
Application software is not compatible with the operating system: the incompatibility of the application software with the operating system will cause the application software to fail to run normally or the system to fail to run normally. Fixing such software incompatibility with the operating system requires uninstalling the incompatible software.
System configuration error: A system configuration error refers to the failure of the system to function properly due to the modification of system settings in the operating system. Usually, this kind of failure can be repaired by modifying the system parameters.
Hardware incompatibility: Hardware incompatibility means that two or more components in the industrial computer cannot work together, which generally causes the industrial computer to fail to start, crash or blue screen. Replacement parts are usually required to fix such failures.
Virus infection: Virus infection usually causes the industrial computer to run slowly, crash, blue screen, the system cannot start, and system files are lost or damaged. To fix such failures, you need to disinfect the files first, and then restore the damaged files.
