Configure the UEFI (BIOS) Settings
Each VersaView® 6300B wall mount box PC has a set-up utility, which is a
hardware configuration program that is built into the universal extensible
firmware interface (UEFI). In this chapter, UEFI replaces Basic Input/Output
System (BIOS) to describe the system firmware except where BIOS is used.
You can run the set-up utility to do the following:
•
Change the system configuration.
•
Set the time and date as part of a commissioning step.
•
Redefine communication ports to help prevent any conflicts.
•
Read the current amount of system memory.
•
Change the boot drive order.
•
Set or change the password or make other changes to the security
settings.
Access the Set-up Utility
Follow these steps to access the set-up utility in your computer.
1.
Start or restart your computer.
2. During POST, press F2 to access the set-up utility.
3. The following screens are accessible through the set-up utility:
• Main (default screen when you access the utility)
• Advanced
• Chipset
• Security
• Boot
• Save and Exit
A commissioning step is one of the following situations:
• When the VersaView 6300B wall mount box PC is powered up initially
• When the Windows OS image is restored
• When the UEFI set-up utility is upgraded
IMPORTANT
To perform these steps, an external display and keyboard must be
connected to the computer.
If you wish to change the boot order temporarily, press F10 during POST to
access the boot menu directly.
