Operating Instructions
4 Operating Instructions
4.1 Switching the Industrial PC on and off
4.1.1 Switch on
The Industrial PC has its own mains switch. The Industrial PC will start when the main switch switched
on.
4.1.2 Shutting down and switching off
When the plant is switched off, or when it is disconnected from its power supply, the Industrial PC will be
switched off.
Control software such as is typically used on Industrial PCs permits various users to be given different
rights. A user who may not close software may also not switch the Industrial PC off, since data can be
lost from the hard disk by switching off while software is running.
First shut down, then switch off the PC
Attention
If the Industrial PC is switched off as the software is writing a file to the memory drive,
the file will be destroyed. Control software typically writes something to the memory
drive every few seconds, so that the probability of causing damage by switching off
while the software is running is very high.
Switch off power supply
Attention
When you have shut down the Industrial PC, you have to switch off power supply for at
least 10 seconds before rebooting the system.
After resetting power supply the PC will start booting automatically.
4.1.3 First switching on and driver installation
When you switch on the Industrial PC for the first time, the pre-installed operating system (optional) will
be started. In this case, all the required drivers for any additional, optional hardware components ordered
with the PC will already have been installed.
If the PC was ordered without operating system, you have to install the operating system and the driver
software for any auxiliary hardware yourself. Please follow the instructions in the documentation for the
operating system and the additional devices.
