3-14 Installing and Operating the Tablet and Base Station E-Series
Creating or Updating the Tablet E-Series USB Recovery Flash Drive
The Tablet E-Series USB Recovery Flash Drive is the primary means of recovering or
updating the Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro images on the Tablet E-Series 8 and
Tablet E-Series 11 devices.
You have the option of purchasing the Tablet E-Series USB Recovery Flash Drive(s) with
the image pre-installed and ready to use, or using the procedure below, provide a USB
Flash Drive and build it yourself using a tool provided with the E-Series 8 or E-Series 11
Recovery Image ZIP file.
Pre-configured Tablet E-Series USB Recovery Flash Drives are available from MICROS in
kit form using the following part numbers:
 PN 000218-410 - Recovery Kit, Tablet E-Series 8, 16GB USB Flash Drive, Windows
Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro, /w Micro USB Adapter.
 PN 000218-411 - Recovery Kit, Tablet E-Series 11, 16GB USB Flash Drive,
Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro.
Each is ready to use and contains the current Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro
image version. Should the image become out-of-date, it can be updated to the latest
image version using the procedure below.
The procedure below describes how to convert a standard USB Flash Drive into the
Tablet E-Series USB Recovery Flash Drive using a utility supplied with the recovery
image. The Tablet E-Series 8 and E-Series 11 each use a different hardware configuration
and require unique images. If supporting both devices, we recommend creating a
separate E-Series USB Recovery Flash Drive for each device.
The Tablet E-Series USB Recovery Flash Drive(s) are not compatible with the Tablet R-
Series.
Requirements
 A USB Flash Drive with a minimum of 4GB available.
 A host PC to create or update the Tablet E-Series USB Recovery Flash Drive.
 The Tablet E-Series USB Recovery Image, in the form of a ZIP File. Currently, the
image files are named:
– Tablet E-Series 11 - ES11_RecoveryDisk_RX.X.ZIP. (X.X = Version)
– Tablet E-Series 8 - ES8_ RecoveryDisk_RX.X.ZIP. (X.X = Version)
Procedure
1. Obtain the E-Series 8 or E-Series 11 Recovery Image ZIP file described above, place
on the host PC, and then extract the ZIP file.
2. Connect the USB Flash Drive to the host PC and determine the drive letter assigned
to the USB Flash Drive. It can vary based on the number of fixed drives, partitions,
and removable drives attached. Using the incorrect drive letter can format the wrong
device.
3. Open a command window and navigate to the recovery image folder.
4. Using the drive letter assigned to the USB Flash Drive you want to convert, execute
MakeRecoveryFlashDrive.cmd <USB Flash Drive Letter>.
5. When prompted, select Y to proceed. It will take several moments to partition the
USB Flash Drive and copy the files.
