Booting the JANUS Reader

The bootstrap process for the JANUS reader is similar to the bootstrap process

for a PC. However, while you often boot a PC, you seldom boot the reader. The

next sections explain how and why you perform these tasks:

• Cold Booting the Reader

• Executing or Skipping the Startup Files

Warm Booting the Reader

You may warm boot the reader to run a startup file that has changed. You may

also warm boot to start Interlnk.

A warm boot performs a power-on self test (POST) to ensure that the hardware

and peripherals are operational, runs CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT, and

displays the DOS prompt. The contents of the physical RAM drive (drive E)

remain intact.

Do not press any keys while the reader is performing a warm boot or you may

N'appuyez pas sur des touches pendant que le lecteur se réamorce, sinon vous

pouvez perdre des données.

To warm boot the reader
