3 Assembly and start-up
3.1 Installation dimensions
Make sure that there is always sufficient clearance for the air circulation on the
ventilation slots of the iPC. Failure to observe this measure will result in overheating
and possible defects in the control computer.
Avoid, as far as possible, extreme environmental conditions.
Protect the PC from dust, moisture and heat.
The ventilation slots of the PC must not be covered.

3.2 Switching on the control unit
The control unit is switched on via the contacts of the sub-D9-pin socket connection in the slot of
the iPC (see chapter 2.2).
When a 12V DC supply voltage is applied, the computer can also power up the
operating system independently. This is the default setting in the BIOS of the computer.
On delivery, the IPC25 computers are set up, so that the standalone start-up
is disabled.
The BIOS setting can be found under "POWER Power Failure Recovery“
Important notice!
If the start-up of the control computer is set up in the BIOS when the supply voltage is applied, the
computer must be shut down properly before the machine is switched off. Otherwise there is the
risk of a loss of data as well as a damaged, operating system that can no longer be booted.

4 Recovering the operating system Windows® Embedded Standard 7
Important information
4.1 Preparations for restoring the operating system.
Backing up user data
Preparing USB Boot
1) To restore the Windows® Embedded operating system
Standard 7 of your control computer, you need the USB Recovery Stick supplied. This
data carrier contains an image of the operating system of your installed control
computer in the delivery state.
2) The hard disk of the control computer delivered is set to two partitions
in the factory The primary partition (approx. 40 GB) of the hard disk contains
the operating System Windows® Embedded Standard 7, while the second
partition for user data is available.
3) If you have partitioned the hard disk other than in the delivery state,
this will be returned to the delivery state when restored.
I.e only the partitions described under 2.) are created.
1) Back up your user data from all partitions to an external
data carrier (USB stick, USB HDD).
2) If you have made changes to the control configuration of your software since the
delivery please back up your current control configuration with the CNC
wbBackup wizard. This is located within the CNCworkbench entry in the Start
menu. Also save this backup on the external disk!
The backup must be done on an external data carrier,
since when restoring the operating system all partitions
are formatted and thus all data is lost.
1) After you have backed up all the data, you must use the operating system of the
recovery USB stick supplied. Plug the USB stick into an available USB port on the
computer. Switch on the computer and press the <F12> key at the beginning of
the boot process.
The boot menu of the computer is displayed.
2) Use the <Up / Down arrow keys> to select the USB stick in the list
Confirm your selection with the <ENTER> key.
3) If you have set everything correctly, do not boot the installed
operating system but the operating system on the USB Stick.
Alternatively, you can also use the <Delete> key in the system start to call up
the BIOS of the computer There you have to change the boot sequence and set
the USB Recovery Stick as the first boot medium. After saving the settings, the
operating system is now started on the Recovery Stick.

4.2 Performing system recovery
5 Maintenance and repair
Maintenance
The industrial PCs of the iPC series are maintenance-free.
Cleaning
Switch off the control computer and the connected components and remove the
power supply.
Use a damp, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use detergents or abrasive cleaners. Be
careful not to allow moisture to enter the housing through the ventilation slots.
1) After you have set the boot medium or the boot-
sequence, start the computer again.
2) If the USB stick does the booting, a "Blue"
cube is displayed on the screen and below this a rotating circle ".
3) After loading the operating system, a command line starts
and then the Windows® Embedded Standard 7 Recovery Wizard.
4) Follow the wizard's instructions. Click on the last
window on the "Install" button to start the recovery.
After successful recovery, a wizard window is displayed. Confirm with OK!
5) Remove the USB Stick (Recovery Stick).
6) Now in the still open command line window, enter the command
<exit> to close the window. The computer will now start again
