14 Manual, 07/2009, A5E02280126-02
3.2 First boot
The SIMATIC Embedded Bundles include the WinAC RTX or HMI installation.
No further installation is necessary.
Note
The first System startup can take longer than usual for the basic commissioning. You will see
a blue screen for several minutes.
Errors and warnings can be displayed in the status bar, with the first and second switch on of
the first basic commissioning or after a restore procedure. They have no effect on the
operation of the device and can be ignored.
Procedure
The First Boot Agent of Windows Embedded runs the first time you start the PC and finalizes
the installation. You do not have to perform any additional configuration.
1. Connect the device to the 24 V DC power supply.
The PC performs a self test. During the self test, this message appears: "Press <F2>
to enter Setup or <Esc> to show Bootmenu"
2. Wait until this message is cleared.
3. Then follow the instructions on the screen.
After the First Boot Agent completes, the PC requests a reboot.
4. After you have entered all the necessary information and the operating system is
configured, you are prompted to restart the system.
5. Acknowledge the prompt with "Yes".
Note
When you turn on the PC now, the user interface of the Windows Embedded operating
system is automatically opened when the startup routine is completed.
Exchanging the CompactFlash card
The CompactFlash card is already pre-installed internally. In some situations, it may be
necessary to exchange it.
CAUTION
CompactFlash cards can only be exchanged on hardware systems with identical
processors.
