12.1. Starting the uEFI BIOS
The uEFI BIOS comes with a Setup program that provides quick and easy access to the individual function settings for
control or modification of the uEFI BIOS configuration. The Setup program allows for access to various menus that
provide functions or access to sub-menus with further specific functions of their own.
To start the uEFI BIOS Setup program, perform the following:
1. Power-up the board.
2. Wait until the first characters appear on the screen (POST messages or splash screen).
3. Press the <DEL> key.
4. If the uEFI BIOS is password-protected, a request for password will appear. Enter either the User Password or
the Supervisor Password, press <RETURN>, and proceed with step 5.
5. A Setup menu appears.
The KBox B-201 uEFI BIOS Setup program uses a hot key navigation system. The hot key legend bar is located at the
bottom of the Setup screens. The following table provides a list of navigation hot keys available in the legend bar.
