5. System Software Configuration
Your system will be delivered with Microsoft Windows® Embedded and Seanet System
Software pre-installed.
A complete image of the Microsoft Windows® Embedded Operating System is provided on
an internal flash memory device. This is independent from the primary C:\ partition where
the system software is installed to. This image can be re-installed at any time through a boot
recovery process to restore the primary C:\ partition to a factory default state.
The boot recovery process is initiated via a switch on the rear panel of the SCU. Files on the
C:\ partition are re-installed during the recovery process, leaving user files on the D:\ drive
unaffected.
There are 2 levels of restoration that can be carried out:
1. Re-installation of the Seanet Pro software only to factory default. It is recommended where
possible that this is attempted before level 2 in order to recover the SCU.
2. Complete re-installation of the primary C:\ partition to factory supplied condition. Use of
this level will erase all files currently stored on the C:\ drive and replace with a factory
installation state. D:\ drive user files will be unaffected. The D:\ drive is also where a copy
of the Seanet Pro software installer and manuals can be located.
5.1. Seanet System Re-Installation
The Seanet SCU has the following drive letters:
Drive C:\
Primary, flash memory boot drive where system files and Seanet Pro software
are installed. This drive should NOT be used for storing any log files.
Drive D:\
This drive is where the Seanet Pro software installer and operator manuals
can be found. There is space to use this drive for user files and log files. The
‘My Documents’ folder has also been moved to this drive.
5.2. Repair of Seanet Pro
If the Seanet SCUv5 is booting up normally and only the Seanet Pro software is giving a
problem then, as a first level recovery, the Seanet Pro software can be re-installed from the
D:\ drive.
Before re-installing Seanet Pro, it is advisable to first remove the existing Seanet Pro
installation. This can be performed through
Control Panel
–
Programs and Features
.
Select the
Seanet Pro
entry and then follow the on-screen instructions to remove the
program.
For re-installation browse to the
D:\SeaNet Installer
folder and run
SCU5Setup.exe
and follow the installation prompts throughout. After installation is complete, click on the
Finish
button which will reboot the SCU ready to run Seanet Pro on Microsoft Windows®
re-start.
