up completely.

(e.g. CD) for long-term storage and safekeeping.
S Master images (images for series start-up) can be loaded by the machine
manufacturer.
S Machine manufacturers can perform upgrades/downgrades (master images)
themselves, irrespective of software supplied by Siemens.
S The Norton Ghost
R
backup program is installed on every MMC102/103 with
SW 4.4 and higher.
The Norton Ghost
R
software allows the complete contents of an MMC102/103
hard disk to be saved as a “disk image”. This image can be safely stored on
various types of data medium for the purpose of restoring the hard disk at a
later time. The Norton Ghost
R
program is supplied as standard with every
MMC102/103 module.

by pressing DEL during MMC power-up.
You can undo BIOS settings by loading the
“BIOS Setup Defaults”.
