2.2.2 Power ON Process

Overview

The ON process is provided to make the system ready for use (ON state). The actual process varies

depending on the settings at that point in time and the last OFF factor (the cause of the OFF action).

ON factors:

 Pressing the Power switch
 Pressing the RESET switch
 Power ON alarm
 Reception of RING signal
 Mounting on the I/O Box

OFF factors:

 Pressing the Power switch
 Pressing the RESET switch
 Auto Power OFF (APO)
 Power OFF by software
 Auto Power OFF due to lower battery voltage
 Emergency Power OFF due to lower battery voltage

Note:

For more information power OFF factors refer to Chapter 2.2.3 "Power OFF Process".

This ON process is divided into two processes: the "Resume process" for continuing the previous

process and the "Boot process" for re-loading MS-DOS. The Boot process can be further broken into

the "Application boot" and the "System Menu boot" processes.
