Starting Up The System - Wincor Nixdorf BEETLE /M-III User Manual

Starting Up the System

After installing the BEETLE /M-III, switch on the POS system using the
ON/OFF button on the front panel.
The system first performs an automatic self-test to test its basic functions.
For example, you may see the following message on the monitor:
WN „ID xx/xx Date"
xx/xx is the placeholder of the BIOS version number.
The system then determines the medium from which the operating system
and POS application are to be booted. Each medium is assigned a logical
drive according to the configuration of your BEETLE /M-III.
A drive can be assigned to the following media:
Network

Hard disk/ SSD

USB drive

The logical drives are designated C: and D.
The network is always assigned to the C: drive during the run-up proce-
dure. The hard disk can be assigned to the C: or D: drive. The system can
only be started from the hard disk if the disk has been configured as C:
drive.
