Getting Started
First Power-up
License Agreement
Limitations on your usage of the Windows ® Operating System are noted in
Microsoft’s End User License Agreement (EULA). Read this document before first
powering-up.
On first power-up of your Industrial Personal Computer, to customize and set the
parameters for your system, refer to the “PS4000 Series Installation Guide”.
Windows Embedded Standard 7 (WES7)
The WES7 is a modularized version of the Windows 7 Ultimate operating system
that provides increased reliability and customizations not available in other Windows
OS. It offers the power and familiarity of Windows in a compact, more reliable form.
WES7 is an operating system that features the Windows Embedded Core and many
additional packages you can select to meet your specific application needs.
Choosing only the necessary packages allows for an optimized operating system
with a small footprint. Because WES7 is based on Windows 7 Ultimate, many
compatible drivers, services, and applications for the Windows 7 operating system
can also run on WES7. This greatly reduces development time by eliminating the
need for custom drivers or conversion efforts.
WES7 also provides many tools for the customization of menus, boot screens, and
dialog boxes. With WES7, you can remove the Windows boot and resume
animations so the screen remains black during startup. You also can remove the
Windows logo from the logon desktop background and all startup screens. Other
common features of Windows include the message and dialog boxes. WES7 can
filter these messages and keep them from appearing during run time. The developer
can choose to hide any dialog box and predefine its default operation so it never
displays to the user.
EWF Manager (Enhanced Write Filter Manager)
The Industrial Personal Computer operating system, Windows®, is installed on a
memory card. This card is a re-writable CFast card that allows approximately
100,000 write operations.
The EWF Manager (Enhanced Write Filter Manager) minimizes the number of write
operations to help extend the life of the CFast card. It loads temporary data (for
example, system updates and software operations) into RAM, and does not write
this information to the CFast card.
As a result, when using the EWF Manager, restarting the Industrial Personal
Computer causes any changes the user made to the system to be overwritten. The
following types of modifications may be overwritten if the EWF Manager is active
and the system is restarted:
