2.4 Installing System Software
Recent releases of operating systems from major vendors include setup programs
which load automatically and guide you through hard disk preparation and operating
system installation. The guidelines below will help you determine the steps necessary
to install your operating system on the panel PC hard drive.
If required, insert your operating system's installation or setup diskette into the exter-
nal diskette drive until the release button pops out.
The BIOS supports system boot-up directly from the CD-ROM drive. You may also
insert your system installation CD-ROM disk into your external CD-ROM drive.
Power on or reset the system by pressing the "Ctrl"+"Alt"+"Del" keys simultaneously.
The Point of Care Terminal will automatically load the operating system from the dis-
kette or CD-ROM.
If you are presented with the opening screen of a setup or installation program, follow
the instructions on screen. The setup program will guide you through preparation of
your hard drive, and installation of the operating system.
2.5 Installing the Drivers
After installing your system software, you will be able to set up the Chipset, Graphics,
Ethernet, audio and touch screen functions by your own external CD-ROM drive. All
the drivers except the CD-ROM drive driver are stored in a CD-ROM disc entitled
"Drivers and Utilities."
The standard procedures for installing the drivers are described in Chapters 3~8
respectively.
The various drivers and utilities in the CD-ROM disc have their own text files which
help users install the drivers and understand their functions. These files are a very
useful supplement to the information in this manual.
For your reference, the directory of drivers on the "Drivers and Utilities" CD-ROM
“d:\driver” folder
Note! Some distributors and system integrators may have already pre-
installed system software prior to shipment of your panel PC.
Note! The drivers and utilities used for the POC-127 panel PCs are subject to
change without notice. If in doubt, check Advantech's website or contact
our application engineers for the latest information regarding drivers and
utilities.
