Starting Up the System
After installing the BEETLE /iPOS plus, switch on the system by using the
Power button on 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 monitor:
WN
„ID xx/xx Date“
xx/xx is the
placeholder
of the BIOS version number.
The system then determines the medium from which the operating system
and the application are to be booted. Each medium is assigned a logical
drive according to the configuration of your BEETLE /iPOS plus.
The following media can be assigned a drive:
Network
Hard disk drive/solid state drive
USB drive
The logical drives are designated C: and D:.
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.
Corresponding to the Setup configuration the modular BEETLE /iPOS plus
can be booted from the following drives:
Hard disk drive C:
LAN module with BOOTPROM
USB drive
Please mind that the storage medium must be
system-boot-capable
.
