Table 233: Device functions in Windows Embedded Standard 7
7.5 Installation
Upon request, B&R can preinstall Windows Embedded Standard 7 on a suitable desired CompactFlash card (32-
bit: at least 8 GB necessary, 64-bit: at least 16 GB necessary). The system is then automatically configured when
it is switched on for the first time. This procedure takes approximately 30 minutes, with the device being rebooted
a number of times.
Information:
If the EWF should be used, all mass storage devices should be disconnected from the system during
installation oder SYSPREP (except for the boot drive). It is also possible to disable additional mass
storage devices in BIOS.
7.6 Drivers
All drivers required for operation are preinstalled along with the operating system. If an older version of the
driver is still being used, the latest version can be downloaded and installed from the B&R website (
). It is important that Enhanced Write Filter (EWF) is disabled for this.
7.6.1 Touch screen driver
A touch screen driver will be installed automatically if a touch controller is detected during the Windows Embedded
Standard 7 installation. If a touch controller is not detected during Windows Embedded Standard 7 installation, or
if an Automation Panel 800/900 is connected later on, then the touch screen driver needs to be installed manually
or the additional touch screen interface must be selected in the touch screen settings in the Windows Control
Panel. The driver can be downloaded from the Download area of the B&R website (
). It is
important that both the Enhanced Write Filter (EWF) and the File Based Write Filter (FBWF) are disabled for this.
Information:
Required drivers can only be downloaded from the B&R website, not from manufacturer websites.
