Lenovo P340 PC Specifications and BIOS Settings

General Specifications

  • Lenovo ThinkStation P340 Tower
  • Intel® Core™ i7-10700K or Intel® Core™ i5-10400

Controller Support

The Lenovo P340 will not work as-is with A3200 because of the older version of INtime that is distributed with A3200.

You must contact Aerotech Global Technical Support to get instructions on how to manually apply a custom INtime upgrade for the Lenovo P340 to work with A3200.

Windows Support

  • A3200 was tested to make sure that it works with Windows 10 when used with Lenovo P340. Windows 11 is not supported for A3200.
  • You must disable the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and all of the features that depend on it, such as BitLocker and drive encryption, so that A3200 will have good real-time performance.

Configuration Tested by Aerotech

The list that follows includes information to take note of when purchasing a Lenovo P340 PC.
