Setup
2.4.3 Method 3: Use a DVD-RW
If required, insert your operating system's installation or setup diskette into the dis-
kette drive until the release button pops out.
The BIOS of the panel PC supports system boot-up directly from the DVD-RW drive.
You may also insert your system installation DVD-RW into the DVD-RW drive.
Power on your panel PC or reset the system by pressing the ‘Ctrl+Alt+Del’ keys
simultaneously. The panel PC will automatically load the operating system from the
diskette or DVD-RW.
If you are presented with the opening screen of a setup or installation pro- gram, fol-
low the instructions on screen. The setup program will guide you through preparation
of your hard drive, and installation of the operaing system. If you are presented with
an operating system command prompt, such as A:\>, then you must partition and for-
mat your hard drive, and manually copy the operating system files to it. Refer to your
operat- ing system user manual for instructions on partitioning and formatting a hard
drive.
2.5 Installing the Drivers
After installing your system software, you will be able to set up the Ether- net, SVGA,
audio, and touchscreen functions. All drivers are stored in a DVD-RW disc entitled
“Drivers and Utilities” which can be found in your accessory box.
The various drivers and utilities in the DVD-RW 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.
Note! The drivers and utilities used for the PPC-L157T panel PCs are subject
to change without notice. If in doubt, check Advantech's website or con-
tact our application engineers for the latest informa- tion regarding driv-
ers and utilities.
