ADMINISTRATOR authentification
By default, the XPe TermiCom is authenticated as a user without privileges. To authenticate yourself as
an administrator, you must at start (when the desktop background of Windows appears with the cursor)
hold the "Shift" key of your keyboard until the window of authentification appears. Then, enter the term
"Administrator" in the "user name" and "Password" field (You must respect lower and upper case).
* If you do not want to restart your computer, log off while holding inserted the button "Shift".
Software or driver addition
To add a driver or software to the XPe TermiCom it is necessary to be authenticated as administrator
(see ADMINISTRATOR authentification section). The file transfer can be easily done. You can use any
peripheral connected on one of the XPe USB port (CD reader, disk drive, USB "Flash" disk) or use the
Ethernet network. Since Windows XP Embedded does not contain all the components and drivers of
Windows XP Professional, it is possible that your software requires a missing component; this will
generate an operating error in the software. If it is the case, please address an email request to
. A Symcod technician will be able to help you to identify the missing component.
Starting with "Safe Mode"
In certain cases, it can be necessary to start Windows in "Safe Mode". To do so, let the computer start
normally and type “MSCONFIG” in the field "Run..." of the Start menu. Select "Startup Diagnosis" and
click on "ok". After a few seconds, you will be asked to start again, press "Restart". After the restarting,
the system informs you that it is in diagnosis mode (being equivalent of "Safe Mode"). To return to
"normal" mode, still use order “MSCONFIG” but select "Normal Startup" then start again.
