2.4 Unattended installation of the PCU Base Software
You can also install the PCU Base Software unattended.
Use this procedure in the following cases:
● If you are operating a PCU as a headless system (without screen and input devices)
● If you want to start up several PCUs with identical settings
To start unattended installation (Page 23), during initial startup use a USB flash drive with
answer file "unattend.xml" in its root directory. You preliminarily define the settings that you
would normally have to make as user entries during installation in this answer file.

2.4.1 Configuring an answer file
Overview
The PCU-Basesoftware, Windows 7, is pre-installed on your PCU 50.5, but for security
reasons, final installation and the setting up of user accounts must be performed during initial
startup.
Configuration using the unattend.xml response file
A response file (unattend.xml) allows Microsoft Windows to be installed unattended. In this
file, you define the settings in advance, which you must normally enter as user data during
installation. Before you switch on the PCU for the first time, copy your adapted unattend.xml
into the root directory of a USB flash drive and connect this to the PCU 50.5.
Unattended installation is required in the following cases:
● If you are operating a PCU as a headless system (without screen and input devices)
● If you want to start up several PCUs with identical settings
Obligatory settings
You preliminarily define the settings that you would normally have to make as user entries
during installation in unattend.xml. You must enter at least the following information:
● Name of the administrator account
● Password of the administrator account
● Password hint
● Confirmation of the EULA
