Special Configuration
Each field and the supported BIOS Versions are listed below.
Boot Test Image (All BIOS Versions)
On a Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R3 Workstation 5A, the default of
[Normal] causes the BIOS to boot from the USB Hard Drive installed on
2x5 header J8.
To boot from a USB thumb drive attached to the IO Panel, set this field to
[Alternate], then select Save Settings and Restart. Selecting [Alternate]
removes power from the USB Hard Drive header, J8 to allow the
workstation to boot from a USB Thumb Drive connected to the IO panel
for purposes of performing a BIOS upgrade.
Cash Drawer Voltage (
All BIOS Versions)
This selection determines the Cash Drawer Solenoid voltage, +12V or
+24V. The default selection of +12V is compatible with all MICROS cash
drawers.
Personality Module (All BIOS V
ersions)
This field determines the location of the persistent registry, based on the
Operating System configuration.
For Windows Embedded CE 6.0, this field is set to [CF].
For WIN32, this field is not valid. The registry resides with the operating
system, located on either the USB Hard Drive or optional SATA Disk
Drive.
