Emergency Boot Function
The SH4 CPU & .NET installed IPC series has duplicated BIOSes (normal BIOS and emergency BIOS)
for BIOS protection purposes.
With the dual-BIOS architecture, the system can be restarted by booting from the emergency BIOS even
if the normal BIOS develops a problem.
To perform emergency booting, or to boot the SH4 CPU & .NET installed IPC series from the
emergency BIOS, remove the upper cover from the main unit, set SW2-7 to ON (see Chapter 4 “On-
Board DIP Switch Settings”), then turn on the power.
