Unpacking and checking the delivery
It is recommended not to throw away the original packaging material! It may be required for
reshipment at some later date.
► Unpack all the individual parts.
► Check the delivery for damage incurred during transportation.
► Check whether the delivery agrees with the details in the delivery note.
Should you discover that the delivery does not correspond to the delivery note, notify your local sales
outlet immediately.
Steps for initial setup
Only a few steps are necessary to put your new PC into operation for the first time:
– Select location for PC and set up PC
– Connect the monitor, mouse and keyboard
– Check the voltage at the mains outlet and connect the PC to an electrical outlet
– Switching on the PC
You will learn more about the individual steps in the following sections.
External devices
i
If you have received other devices in addition to your PC (e.g. a printer or a modem), do
not connect these until after the initial installation. The following sections contain a
description of how to connect these external devices: "Connecting external devices to the
serial port" and " Connecting external devices to the parallel port".
Drives and boards
If you have received drives or boards with your PC, please do not install them until after
first-time setup. How to install drives and boards is described in the "System expansions "
chapter.

Preparing for use
Setting up the PC
When installing your PC, give consideration to the recommendations and safety notes in
the "Safety" manual.
!
Set up the PC only in its correct orientation. The points to observe are illustrated on the
following pages.
We recommend that you place your device on a surface with good anti-slip qualities. In
view of the multitude of different finishes and varnishes used on furniture, it is possible that
the rubber feet will mark the surface they stand on.
Do not expose the PC to extreme environmental conditions (see "Technical data "
chapter). Protect the PC from dust, humidity and heat.
When installing the PC, provide sufficient clearance around the PC, as indicated in the
"Technical data " chapter to ensure adequate ventilation. In order to avoid overheating, do
not cover the ventilation area of the monitor or the PC.
Do not place several PCs one above the other.
Depending on the location of your device, bothersome vibrations and noises may occur.
To prevent this, a distance of at least 3 mm should be maintained from other devices on
casing sides without ventilation surfaces. In addition, we recommend placing the device on
support feet, as these buffer vibrations.

Some units with a main power switch have a wide-range power supply, depending on the
configuration level. This means that manual voltage setting is not necessary for these
devices. Therefore there is no switch available for the voltage setting.
The following refers to the other devices:
The value indicated with an arrow must be compatible with the local rated voltage:
115 = 100 V to 127 V 230 = 200 V bis 240 V
If the voltage setting is incorrect, then lift out the manual voltage adjuster with a
screwdriver (1), turn it to the required setting and reinsert it.
Devices without main power switch:
The visible value must agree with the local mains voltage:

Access authorisation via SmartCard
In systems equipped with a SmartCard reader, access can be restricted to those users who have a
corresponding SmartCard.
Access protection with SystemLock
With SystemLock you can protect your system from unauthorised booting. Then a system can only
be booted when the user inserts a valid SmartCard in the SmartCard reader and enters his/her
personal code number (PIN). To use SystemLock you require the following components:
● External SmartCard reader
● SystemLock installed (see "BIOS Setup" manual)
● SmartCard
SystemLock controls access to your PC. When a SmartCard is initialised, permissions are assigned
for system access (system, setup, system+setup, admin). You can configure several SmartCards for
one system and initialise them with different permissions. In addition you can protect access to your
hard disk.
In this way users can be divided into user groups. Users of a user group use SmartCards with the
same permissions.

Tips
The PC cannot be switched off with the ON/OFF switch
Cause: The PC was not switched on with the ON/OFF switch.
► Press the ON/OFF switch again.
Cause: System crash
► Press and hold the ON/OFF switch for at least four seconds until the PC switches off.
Out of system resources
If you have too many applications running at once, you may experience problems due to a lack of
system resources. In this case you should:
► close unnecessary applications
or
► run the applications in a different order.

As the PC has to be shut down in order to install/deinstall system hardware components, it
is a good idea to print out the relevant sections of this chapter.
i
It may be necessary to update the BIOS when carrying out a system expansion or
hardware upgrade. Additional information is contained in the "BIOS Setup" manual or
possibly in the technical manual for the mainboard.
When installing components that become very hot, make sure that the maximum
permissible temperatures of the individual components are not exceeded.
The PC must be switched off when installing/removing the system expansions and may
not be in the energy-saving mode.
This chapter describes all the activities required to modify your PC hardware (e.g. installing boards or
drives).
Read the supplied documentation before installing new drives and/or boards.
Refer to the technical manual for the mainboard before making any extensions to the mainboard.
Information about boards
Take care with the locking mechanisms (catches and centring pins) when you are replacing boards
or components on boards.
To prevent damage to the board or the components and conductors on it, please take care when you
insert or remove boards. Make sure expansion boards are inserted straightly.
Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage.
Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are identifiable by the label
shown.
When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must, under all
circumstances, observe the following points:
●You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a
grounded object) before working.
● The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.
● Remove the power plug from the mains supply before inserting or
removing boards containing ESDs.
● Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.
● Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.

Replacing lithium battery
In order to permanently save the system information, a lithium battery is installed to provide the
CMOS-memory with a current. A corresponding error message notifies the user when the charge is
too low or the battery is empty. The lithium battery must then be replaced.
Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion!
!
The lithium battery may be replaced only with an identical battery or with a type
recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not throw lithium batteries into the household waste. They must be disposed of in
accordance with local regulations concerning special waste.
Make sure that you insert the battery the right way round. The plus pole must be on the
