<br />Bastiaan, there is a VESA 75 wall mount kit available for the ASUS TOP, i think it costs around 25-30 euro.

Hoi Hoi,

Misschien een rare vraag, hoe heb je de volgende zaken opgelost?

Waar haal je stroom vandaan?
Zit er geen adapter aan de Touch PC?
Is de pc ook aangesloten via ethernet?
Misschien ook andere devices via usb?

Alvast bedankt!

Dennis,

<b>Stroom</b>
The power plug that sticks out of the back side of the Asus TOP disappears into a 10 mm hole i drilled through a 10 cm thick wall. This hole comes out in the entrance where a power outlet is nearby. Pic:

De TOP is pulled towards the wall in the livingroom by 2 M3 threads. Below that you can see the adapter cable coming out of the wall.


<b>Adapter</b>
Yes, the adapter is located in the entrance.

<b>Ethernet</b>
I use an AccessPoint for my Asus TOP.

<b>USB</b>
No extra USB devices are attached to the Asus TOP. It would only make it look messy. At boot mu touch app is started automatically, so all i need is a finger. If i would ever need to enter long lines of text (haven't had the need for that yet) i would plug in the USB keyboard or use the OS supplied osk.exe (On Screen Keyboard)

Ok duidelijk, maar hoe ga ik dat nu oplossen :)
ik heb een loze leiding op de muur waar ik hem wil hebben. kan ik de adapter verlengen? of zou dat niet goed gaan?

I don't see why not. Pull your own power cable, solder a plug on the TOP side and attach it to the adapter on the other side and you're done.

Dennis,

If i would have had the need to do it, i would have done it. What can go wrong? The adapter says 19V DC 3.42A and even shows you where + and - are, what more is there to know. There is no rocket science involved here [:)]
