Computer Overview

The VersaView Industrial Non-display Computers run factory
operations from small visual interface and maintenance applications to
large control and information applications. These computers operate
in rugged environments where endurance to high-temperature, shock,
and vibration is critical. Combine the VersaView 200R, 700R, or 1400R
computer with any VersaView monitor to complete your system.

Most of the computers are available with the Windows 2000 or
Windows XP operating system, and offer standard or performance
features. All of the computers come standard with Ethernet and serial
ports.

For the less rugged environments where endurance to
high-temperature, shock, and vibration is not as critical, Rockwell
Automation offers a line of light industrial computers and monitors.

Operating Systems

The computers are shipped with one of these operating systems:

• Windows 2000 Professional, Service Pack 4 with Update
Rollup 1

• Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 2b

No operating system updates have been applied to the factory image
beyond the service packs.

For your convenience, the I386 source directory for Microsoft
Windows is on the system drive of your computer off the root
directory, C:\I386. This allows for easy removal and addition of
Windows components.

Publication 6155R-UM001G-EN-P - July 2007

10 System Features

Computers with rotating-media hard drives include a recovery
partition on the system drive containing the original factory image.
You can use the supplied System Accessories/Cloning CD to restore
the operating system from the recovery partition, create a new
recovery image, and create bootable external recovery media.

Refer to the Cloning Utility documentation, publication 6000-TD001,
for instructions. You can view or download publications at
http://literature.rockwellautomation.com

.

Computers with solid state drives have been customized to
accommodate the unique properties of the solid state drive. Some of
the pre-installed customizations include:

• no paging file.

• system restore set to zero and disabled.

• DLLCACHE directory emptied.

Computers with solid state hard drives do not contain a recovery
partition. If additional drive space is required, copy the I386 directory
to external media; then delete the I386 directory from C:\I386, which
is approximately 400 MB.

To obtain the original factory image on bootable external recovery
media, which also includes the I386 source directory, contact your
local technical support center.

Multilingual User Interface
CD Pack

The Microsoft Multilingual User Interface (MUI) CD Pack contains a
collection of different language sets that can be installed into the
operating system. MUI packs are available for all Windows XP
operating systems and provide a localized start menu and system
icons support.

The instructions for installing MUI languages on your computer are
supplied with the MUI CD Pack.

Connect Power

The power connection for the computers varies by model.

• The VersaView 200R computer connects to either a 120/240V ac
or 9…36V dc power source, depending on the model.

• The VersaView 700R and 1400R computers connect to a
120/240V ac power source.

Connect ac Power

Computers with an ac power input use a standard IEC 320 power
cord. The power supply input accepts 120/240V ac and is
autoranging.

Operate the computer in an industrial or control room environment,
which uses some form of power isolation from the public low-voltage
mains.

ATTENTION

• Connect the ac power cord to a power source with an earth ground to
prevent electrical shock. Failure to follow this warning could result in
electrical shock.

• The computer circuit should have its own disconnect. Use an
uninterruptible power source (UPS) to protect against unexpected
power failure or power surges.

• Always shut down the operating system before removing power to
minimize performance degradation and operating system failures.

Chapter Objectives

This chapter provides information on troubleshooting anomalies with
your computer.

• Troubleshooting procedure

• Diagnostic utility

• Troubleshooting checklists

• Shipping information

Troubleshooting Procedure

To identify and isolate an anomaly with your computer, follow these
steps.

1. Shut down the computer’s operating system by using the

appropriate method for your operating system.

2. Disconnect the power to the computer.

3. Disconnect peripheral devices such as a printer or external

drive.

4. Connect the keyboard and mouse, if used.

5. Check the video connections if using an external monitor.

6. Connect power to the computer.

When you apply power, check the power on self test (POST).
One of three events will occur.

• The computer completes the startup process.

• An error message displays to indicate a nonfatal fault. You

may have to acknowledge the message before the startup
process continues.

• The startup process terminates if a fatal error occurs.

7. If the system starts, isolate the anomaly by connecting peripheral

devices one at a time until the anomaly occurs.

If the anomaly is with a specific software package, or driver,
reinstall the software.

Publication 6155R-UM001G-EN-P - July 2007

52 System Troubleshooting

8. If the anomaly is not related specifically to a software installation

or peripheral device, refer to the diagnostic utility and the
troubleshooting checklists.

Diagnostic Utility

If you followed the troubleshooting procedure and are still having
anomalies, use the VersaView diagnostic utility to isolate the anomaly.
This utility determines the cause of the malfunction by testing
computer components.

You can perform an initial diagnosis without disconnecting or moving
your computer. The process takes as little as five minutes or as long as
eight hours, depending on the anomaly. After the diagnostic utility has
run, you can generate a report for analysis by a technical support
representative, expediting any necessary repair process.

The diagnostic utility and documentation are on the VersaView
Support CD that ships with your computer. To run the diagnostic
utility, insert the Support CD into the computer’s CD-ROM drive and
restart the computer. No software is installed, nor does the utility
affect any software already installed.

Troubleshooting Check
Lists

– One of the power supply voltages is outside its specified

range.

If the alarm light remains on, the computer should be returned
for service.

Problems Running New Software

• Does the software have a hardware requirement that is not
present?

• Are you using an authorized copy of the software? Some copies
of software will not work without proper activation.

• Did the software install correctly? Reinstall the software.

• Are you following the software instructions? Refer to the vendor

user manual.

Problems With an Add-in Card

• Is the card installed and configured correctly? Check the jumper
and other configuration settings.

• Are cables incorrectly installed?

• Does the card use a dedicated interrupt? You may need to

reserve that interrupt in the CMOS setup PCI/PNP menu.

Publication 6155R-UM001G-EN-P - July 2007

Upgrade to a New BIOS

Sometimes a new BIOS is released to enhance the performance of
your computer, make it compatible with new hardware or software, or
to correct a defect. You can download BIOS updates from the
Rockwell Automation website
http://www.ab.com/industrialcomputers

to update your computer.

Follow these steps to update the BIOS in your computer.

1. Attach a monitor and keyboard to your computer.

For the 200R computer, connect an external USB floppy drive.

2. On any computer connected to the Internet and containing a

floppy disk, go to the website
http://www.ab.com/industrialcomputers

.

3. Click Support Resources>Drivers.

4. Click the link matching your computer’s description and

navigate to the specific product.

5. Click the link for the specific BIOS download and save it to the

hard drive.

6. Unzip the download.

7. Run the extracted executable and choose to write on the floppy

drive.
This creates a BIOS update floppy disk that you can use to start

your VersaView computer.

8. Load the floppy disk containing the BIOS update in your

VersaView computer and restart the computer.

9. Follow the directions that appear on the computer screen to

properly update the BIOS.
