Firmware/BIOS description

9.6.1

Overview

Parameterize your device in the BIOS Setup.

BIOS Setup program

The BIOS Setup program, or BIOS Setup for short, is located, together with the setup

parameters, in a FLASH block on the motherboard.
Change the setup parameters of the device in the BIOS Setup, e.g. system time or boot

sequence.

Changing the device configuration

Your device configuration is preset for operating with the included software. You should only

change the default setup parameters if technical modifications to your device require

different parameters.

NOTICE
Malfunctions can occur with running software CPU
If a BIOS update of the PC is performed while SIMATIC software controller, a

SIMATIC WinAC for example, is running, the software CPU can malfunction, resulting in

communication interruptions or failures, for example. Other actions that put a heavy load on

the PC hardware, for example, running hardware tests such as benchmarks, can result in

malfunctions of the software CPU.
Do not run a BIOS update or other actions that would put a heavy load on the hardware

during operation of a software CPU.
Switch the software CPU to "STOP" before you run a BIOS update or perform other critical

actions.

Note
Documentation
BIOS Setup is described for all devices and device configurations. Some BIOS submenus or

Setup parameters may not be included, depending on your order. The interface of your

BIOS Setup can deviate from the figures in this document.
You can find a detailed description of the BIOS on the Support website under Entry

ID 92189178.
