Using the Controller Windows Configuration Review
Windows Security
If your system is connected to the Internet, you should take the following steps to
ensure the operating system is protected:
- Use an Internet fire wall
- Get the latest Windows updates
- Install and use up-to-date anti-virus software.
Open the Windows Firewall to look the status of, or make changes to, the firewall
settings. On “Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSB”, right click Start > Control Panel >
System & Security > Windows Firewall.On “Windows Embedded Standard 7”, click
Start > Control Panel > Windows Firewall.
Windows Update
The factory default setting for Windows Automatic Updates is to check for
updates and notify the user if updates are available. It will not automatically
install updates. This ensures that your M9037A is not modified, unless you
accept an update.
In “Windows Embedded Standard 7”, you can change the setting or manually
update the Windows OS by accessing Start > Control Panel > Windows update.
In “Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSB”, you can change the setting or manually
updating the OS by right-clicking Start, click Settings, and then click on Update &
Security.
Windows Automatic Update is turned off by default. You may
choose to turn Windows Automatic Update on after starting the
operating system. However, Keysight cannot be held responsible
for changes to the system caused by the automatic update
process. Enabling automatic Windows updates exposes the
controller to periodic OS changes and possible new system
behaviors.
Downloading and installing Windows Updates can be network and
CPU intensive (impacting system performance) and some Windows
Updates automatically reboot the controller. Therefore, Windows
updates should be performed when the system is not in normal
use.
There is no 3rd party anti-virus software included with your
controller. Anti-virus application software is the customer's
responsibility. Having anti-virus software installed may have a
slight impact on system performance.
