7. A config tool will appear. Arrow to the far right tab called Variant Data and
select it. Find the five numbers on the nameplate next to Mat No. Type
these five numbers in the box to the left of the Set button and then click Set.
8. New values will be written to the screen and to the EEPROM. Click O.K. to
accept the new values.
9. Click on Start and then Run command.
10. Hit O.K. to launch the image update tool again. When the config tool
appears, go to the Image Update tab. Click the “Image File..” button.
Browse to the PC card and select the *.bin file. Click O.K. and then click the
“Start Update” button.
11. Select Yes to the next two warnings. After the progress bar completes, you
will be prompted to select O.K. to reboot the terminal. Select O.K.
Do not remove power from the unit until it boots into the new
Operating System.
12. The reboot message may not appear on some units. If this occurs, several
minutes after the progress bar has indicated a completion, a screen will
come up indicating an EEPROM write failure. Press the Info tab down in the
task bar to bring up the terminal reboot message prompt. Select O.K. to
reboot the terminal.
13. After the unit reboots, a green progress bar will appear and the message
“erasing PSM, please wait…”. After the progress bar completes, the unit will
go blank for about 15 seconds and then boot into the new OS. A touch
screen calibration screen will also appear. The OS update is now complete.
14. After performing the calibration, wait 5 to 10 minutes before doing a registry
back-up to save the new touch screen settings; the unit is still writing some
files at this point. After doing the registry back-up, you are now ready to
load ME Station.
ME Station Install Instructions
Browse to the PC card and launch the InstallCE_MOV~.exe. Once the install is
complete, you will be prompted to reboot the terminal. Once the terminal reboots,
a ME Station shortcut will appear on the desktop.
