1.3.5 Using the CIARA Astro SN-170T
1.3.5.1 Introduction
The CIARA Astro SN-170T is a powerful personal micro PC that has the ability to run a variety of operating systems. Unless you have
specified something different, your system comes configured with a Windows operating system pre-loaded onto the SSD drive. Each
operating system comes with its own user manuals, and you should refer to these for information specific to your system.
1.3.5.2 A caution about viruses
Due to the prevalence of micro PC viruses, we strongly recommend that you take precautions to protect your micro PC from them.
Purchase and use a reputable virus-checking program. Ensure that the program is kept up to date by registering the program, and
installing updates as they become available. Please be aware, however, that even the best virus checking programs cannot be
regarded as the perfect solution. It is possible for even the best program to fail, particularly if it is not updated. Please contact your
CIARA account representative for more information.
1.3.5.3 Windows
Windows is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that provides a screen composed of icons. You select or “click” on the icons to run
programs. As noted above, Windows has been installed on your micro PC. For further information about using Windows, please consult
the appropriate Microsoft software manual provided with your CIARA Astro SN-170T.
1.3.5.4 Windows Server 2012, 2012 R2, Novell NetWare and Linux
Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, Novell NetWare and Linux are operating systems that provide sophisticated
networking capabilities to Windows based micro PCs. The onboard Network Interface Card (NIC) in the micro PC allows the user to
connect the CIARA Astro SN-170T to a network server computer running Windows 2012 Server, Novell NetWare or Linux.
Microsoft, Novell and Linux provide workstations on the network with access to files and applications stored on the file server (a
dedicated computer running the Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, NetWare or Linux operating systems), as well as
access to shared printers on the network. Sophisticated tools are built into the Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2,
NetWare and Linux operating systems to manage the network, and to restrict access to resources on the file server.
For further information about Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, Novell NetWare or Linux, please consult the manuals
provided with the network operating system (NOS), or speak to your service representative.
