Precautions for setting OS boot drive to [A: Standard CF Card]
(1) GOT startup time
When the OS boot drive is set to [A: Standard CF Card], the GOT startup time with the A drive takes longer
than that with the C drive.
The GOT startup time with the A drive differs depending on the CF card type, the numbers of extended
function OSs and option OSs, and project data size.
(2) Handling CF card during booting OS
Do not remove the CF card and do not turn off the CF card access switch during booting the OS.
Doing so causes the boot to fail. As a result, the GOT does not start correctly.
(3) Corrective actions when OS cannot be booted
The OS cannot be booted in the following conditions.
Take the following corrective actions, and then boot the OS again.
The type of the GOT to be used differs from the GOT type data
set with GT Designer3 or GT Designer2 stored in the CF card.
The GOT has insufficient memory.
The CF card access switch is off.
1 - 4 1.2 Rough Pre-operation Procedure
By connecting with the Ethernet interface included as standard in GT 16, project data can be downloaded/uploaded.
For download/upload of project data with the Ethernet connection, BootOS and standard monitor OS should be installed in the
GOT in advance so that the GOT and PC can communicate with each other via Ethernet by setting Communication Settings.
Refer to the following manual for details.
•GT Designer3 Version1 Screen Design Manual (Fundamentals)
(Chapter 8 COMMUNICATION WITH GOT)
•GT Designer2 Version
The B drive or E drive cannot be set as the OS boot drive.
