OFTWARE & DRIVER INSTALLATION
The device will be delivered with a pre-installed Windows operating system on request by
the customer. The drivers required for this, are already installed and the operating system
will be enabled by entering the licence information. Should an initial installation be
required, please follow the following steps. With a later operating system like Windows XP,
the network card and graphics card will properly be recognised during the initial
installation, so that only additional hardware cards must separately be installed.
Note:
If the hard drive was formatted, the installation can be carried out by using the internal
drives, the USB interface or the network connection.
An external keyboard is required for installation.
6.1 I NSTALLING THE OPERATING SYSTEM
If the device is not equipped with an integrated drive, installing the operating system can
only be carried out by using either a network connection or the USB interface. In order to
perform the installation by using the network, the device must be able to access the CD-
ROM drive of another PC.
Procedure for installation:
Network:
Create a bootable DOS drive with access to the user-specific network.
Boot the device by using the DOS drive and install a boot partition on the
hard disk.
Copy the i386 folder from the CD-ROM to the hard drive of the device.
Copy drivers from the supplied CD-ROMs to the hard drive of the device.
USB:
The boot drive in the system Bios must be switched to USB in order to
boot the device from the USB interface.
Restart the device and insert the Windows CD.
Install the required software and/or the required drivers.
If Windows CE.net or Windows XPe is used, the entire operating system may be
completely installed from the USB stick using the respective image.
