Computer Overview

Operating Systems

Non-display industrial computers run operations from small visual interface and maintenance applications to large control and information applications. Combine an industrial display with the 750R (catalog number 6177R-MM) or 1450R (catalog number 6177R-RM) computer to complete your system.

These computers are available with performance, advanced, and server features. They come standard with a selection of I/O ports for peripheral connections and expansion slots.

The following Microsoft-licensed operating systems are available:

• Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro (64-bit)

• Windows 7 Professional, Service Pack 1 (64-bit)

• Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard (64-bit)

• Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard, Service Pack 1(64-bit)

• Windows 10 IoT Enterprise (64 bit)

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

Computers with HDDs include a recovery partition with the original factory image. You can use AMI Rescue that is embedded in the BIOS/UEFI set-up utility to restore the operating system from the recovery partition, and create a recovery image. See AMI Rescue

on page 75 for instructions.

IMPORTANT Computers with the Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro operating system

do not contain a backup of the factory image in the recovery partition.

Environment and Enclosure Information

ATT EN TI ON : This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2

industrial environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6561 ft) without derating.

This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to IEC/CISPR 22. Without appropriate precautions, there can be potential difficulties with electromagnetic compatibility in other environments due to conducted and radiated disturbance.

This equipment is supplied as open type equipment. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only by the use of a tool. UL Listed equipment need not be mounted inside another enclosure. Subsequent sections of this publication can contain extra information about specific enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with certain product safety certifications.

In addition to this publication, see the following:

• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication 1770-

4.1, for additional installation requirements

• NEMA 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection that are provided by different types of enclosure

European Union Directive

This computer meets the European Union Directive requirements when installed within the European Union or EEA regions and have the CE mark. A copy of the

http://www.rockwellautomation.com/certification

declaration of the conformity is available at

ATT EN TI ON : This computer is intended to operate in an industrial or control room environment, which uses some form of power isolation from the public low–voltage mains. Some computer configurations cannot comply with the EN 61000-3-2 Harmonic Emissions standard as specified by the EMC Directive of the European Union. Obtain permission from the local power authority before you connect any computer configuration that draws more than 75 W of AC power directly from the public mains.

To comply with EN 55024, the Ethernet port LAN cable must be only used indoors. All other I/O cables must be less than 3 m (9.84 ft) and only used indoors.

Installation Guidelines

Follow these guidelines to make sure that your computer provides service with excellent reliability:

• The installation site must have sufficient power.

ATTENTION: To maintain an electrically safe installation, AC powered computers must be plugged into a grounded outlet.

• In dry environments, static charges can build up easily. A properly grounded computer helps to reduce static discharges, which can cause shock and damage electronic components.

• The enclosure must allow sufficient space around air inlets and outlets to provide the circulation necessary for cooling. See Mounting Clearance

Requirements on page 22 for further information. Never allow air

passages to become obstructed.

•The ambient air temperature must not exceed the maximum operating temperature of 0…50° C (32…113° F). Consider a user-supplied fan, heat exchanger, or air conditioner for heat from other devices in the enclosure.

TIP Hot air rises. The temperature at the top of the enclosure is often

higher than the temperature in other parts of the enclosure, especially when air does not circulate.

IMPORTANT The computer can operate at a range of extremes. However, the life

span of the computer is shortened if you continuously operate it at its highest rated temperature, which includes the touch screen and LCD panel.

• The humidity of the ambient air must not exceed 10…90% and must avoid condensation.

• The enclosure or cover must always remain in place during operation. The cover provides protection against high voltages inside the computer and inhibits radio-frequency emissions that can interfere with other equipment.

Set-up Utility Overview

In this chapter, universal extensible firmware interface (UEFI) replaces Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) to describe the system firmware except where BIOS is used, such as on a graphical interface. The set-up utility is a hardware configuration program that is built into the UEFI. The UEFI is already configured and optimized so there is no need to run this utility. However, you can run the set-up utility to do the following:

• Change the system configuration.

• Change the UEFI setup when the system detects a configuration error.

• Redefine communication ports to prevent any conflicts.

• Read the current amount of system memory.

• Change the boot drive.

• Set or change the password or make other changes to the security settings.

• Upgrade the system firmware.

• Run the diagnostic utility to determine the cause of system malfunction.

• Restore or back up the operating system.
