Starting up the system
The configuration label shows you the equipment included in your modular
BEETLE /NetPOS system.
The label is located at the underside of the BEETLE /NetPOS. The data
specified there are required for entering the setup parameters (see section
Setup in the manual “BEETLE POS Motherboard”).
Start and runup behaviour
After installing the BEETLE /NetPOS, switch on the POS system using the
ON/OFF button on the front panel and the power switch on the power
supply.
The system first performs an automatic self-test to test its basic functions.
For example, you may see the following message (irrespective of processor
type) on the four-line cashier display or on the monitor:
xx/xx is the place holder of the BIOS version number
The system then determines the medium from which the operating system
and POS application are to be booted. Each medium is assigned a logical
drive according to the configuration of your BEETLE /NetPOS.
The following media can be assigned a drive:
n

n
