Starting up the System
Start and Runup Behaviour
After installing the BEETLE /XL-II, switch on the ON/OFF switch at the rear
side of your POS system and then the On button at the front panel.
The system first performs an automatic self-test to test its basic functions.
For example, you may see the following message (irrespective of processor
type) on the four-line cashier display or on the monitor:
xx/xx is the place holder of the BIOS version number
The system then determines the medium from which the operating system
and POS application are to be booted. Each medium is assigned a logical
drive according to the configuration of your BEETLE /XL-II.
The following media can be assigned a drive:
Starting up the system
n
Disk
n
Network
n
Hard disk
n
Memory card
n
CD-ROM
The logical drives are designated A:, B:, C: and D:.
If the system is to be booted from the floppy disk, this medium must always
be assigned drive A:. The network is always assigned to the C: drive during
the runup procedure. The hard disk can be assigned to the C: or D: drive.
The system can only be started from the hard disk if the disk has been
configured as the C: drive.
