Press the Y key to save the BIOS setup changes and exit the BIOS
setup utility.

The system automatically reboots from the hard disk thereafter.

There are two components to the PC NC software. One is the PC NC HMI soft-
ware on the hard disk, and the other is the PC NC motion card software on the
motion board. This section explains how to update the PC NC HMI software on
the hard disk.

Normally, it is not necessary to update the HMI software; however, this operation
may be done if a software problem occurs or a software function update is
required. Please contact a Yaskawa customer service representative to obtain the
latest version of the software. Also, if continuing from the section on Hard Disk
Restore Kit Option (UUX000046), this process is needed to update to the latest
software.

There are two ways to update the HMI software. One is by using the External CD
ROM Drive which is part of the Restore Kit option (UUX000046). The other
method uses Toshiba Flash Path and Smart Media.
