If you are using a PCU 50.5, you can split the disk image into
several files of a defined size.
Split the disk image size in the following cases:
● If the file system (e.g. FAT32) can only manage files of a
certain size.
● If the disk image is to be archived onto multiple data media,
for example, when using CDs.
If you are using a different PC system than the PCU 50.5, you
must deactivate the "Split image size" setting.
Select the compatibility of the name scheme.
This option is required so that a disk image with older versions
of the "PCU-Basesoftware Windows XP" can be read in by Win‐
dows XP.
It is not possible to use a different operating system on a Sie‐
mens PC system other than the preinstalled system (e.g. Win‐
dows XP on a PCU 50.5 Windows 7).
Activate Compression or select a compression level.
Higher compression results in a smaller file size, but increases
the time needed to compress or decompress the data.
