Application Notes
Drive Z:
Drive Z: is onboard volatile memory (Ms-ramdrive) on the logic board of the
terminal. Because drive Z: is volatile memory, we recommend that you do not save
data that you want to keep on this drive.
Drive C: and Flash
Drive C: is onboard non-volatile Flash (memory) on the logic board of the terminal.
It is recommended that you do not write to drive C:. Writing to C: reduces the size of
the Flash. If the Flash size is reduced to 3 megabytes, the terminal becomes
unstable. If Flash size is reduced to 2 megabytes, the terminal’s image is
irreparably damaged.
Items that are written to Flash during normal operations are:
•
Favorites
•
Created connections
•
Delete/edit connections
•
History
Saving Files
Save files that you want to keep on a server rather than on your terminal.
Upgrading Firmware
There are three methods for upgrading the firmware:
1. For remote upgrades use Rapport
TM
Administrative Software.
2. For single local upgrades, use Image Upgrade. Use this method to upgrade
one terminal at a time. Invoke the function using Start | Programs | Image
Upgrade. The Image Upgrade dialog box shown in Figure 10 displays.
