Checking services
Depending on storage type (standalone or shared) of the K2 Summit 3G system, various services
are turned off or on or set to different startup types. These services are automatically set by the K2
Summit 3G system software installation program and by the Status Server service whenever the K2
Summit 3G system starts up.
NOTE: Do not manually change the way services run on a K2 Summit 3G system.
If you suspect that services have been tampered with or for any reason are not set correctly, you can
check their current settings in the Windows Services Control Panel. The table below provides the
settings for the services that are critical to a correctly operating K2 Summit 3G system.
