What is the PCWS 2015
The System
The System
The MICROS PCWS 2015 sets a new standard for performance in a Point of Sale terminal. Based on the Intel Calpella mobile platform, it provides the processing power demanded by the latest applications, while at the same time maintaining a low thermal output and minimal power consumption.
Two dual-core mobile processors from this family are available: the Intel Celeron P4505 or Core i5-520.
The PCWS 2015 is designed to operate along side the Workstation 5A, retaining similar styling and compatibility with existing stands, customer displays, magnetic card readers, biometric devices and other peripherals.
Operator Features
Figure 1-1 points out the primary external operator controls.
Figure 1-1: The PCWS 2015 - Operator Features
15” TFT LCD and Resistive Touchscreen
The Operator LCD consists of a 15” TFT LCD, at a fixed resolution of 1024x768 and is capable of supporting up to 262K colors. Placed over the LCD is a five-wire resistive touchscreen. An optional capacitive touchscreen will be available after release.

PCWS 2015 Setup Guide - 2nd Edition 1-3
What is the PCWS 2015
The System
Operator LED
The PCWS 2015 Operator LED is Green to easily distinguish the unit from the Workstation 5A, which shares similar casework.
The Operator LED blinks two times per second as the workstation starts-up and performs the Power On Self T est (POST). After the operating system starts and loads the PCWS API, the Operator LED turns solid Green.
Power Button
The recessed illuminated power button is located on the lower right of the base. It is used to power the PCWS 2015 on and off. The illuminated power button is identified by the international symbol for power on/off.
3-Track Magnetic Card Reader
The low profile 3-Track Mag Card Reader is the same as used in the Workstation 5A.
Cooling System
The dual-core Celeron and i5 processor selections consume sufficient power to require active cooling. After conducting extensive thermal simulations, heat pipe cooling technology was selected for the PCWS 2015.
Heat Pipes combine the principles of thermal conductivity and phase transition to efficiently manage the transfer of heat between ‘warm’ and ‘cold’ surfaces. A heat pipe consists of a sealed pipe or tube made of copper, connected to both the ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ ends. A vacuum pump is used to remove all air from the empty heat pipe, and then it is filled with a small amount of coolant chosen to match the operating temperature.
On the PCWS 2015, the ‘warm’ end of the heat pipe is heatsink attached to the processor and the ‘cold’ end of the heat pipe is located under the power supply cover. The power supply cover is shaped to form a ‘cooling tunnel.’
The 60mm CPU fan pulls ambient air through the front of the base, across the heat pipe radiator and power supply, before it exits from the left side of the workstation base. This is illustrated in Chapter 3.
The CPU fan runs at full speed when you start the workstation, then slow to about 2500 RPM in about two minutes. The fan continues to run at this speed as long as the workstation is on. If the CPU fan temperature sensor exceeds 47°C, the CPU fan will increase speed to compensate.
Internal Speakers
The PCWS 2015 introduces Intel High Definition Audio capability. The digital audio controller in the PCH is coupled to the analog RealTek ALC268-VB1 High Definition codec.The IO Panel includes a Line-Out audio jack for driving external powered speakers.

Mass Storage
The PCWS 2015 can use standard 2.5” form factor SATA drives, but is also capable of booting from a USB Hard Drive.
2.5” SATA Drive Bay
The PCWS supports one or two laptop form factor (2.5”) SATA drives, accessed from the front and rear of the base. The PCWS 2015 ships with a single 2.5” SATA drive installed in bay 0, near the IO panel. A second drive can be added for expansion or two drives can be used in combination to build a RAID 0 or RAID 1 array.
2.5” SATA Solid State Drives (SSD) are available, but are currently substantially more expensive than spinning drives and not yet available in a standard PCWS 2015 configuration.
Each bay is secured by access panels with captive allen head screws. Chapter 3 contains more information about adding and removing hard drives.

PCWS 2015 Setup Guide - 2nd Edition 1-5
What is the PCWS 2015
The System
eUSB Flash Drive
The PCWS 2015 includes a dedicated 2x5 header reserved for an eUSB flash drive, similar to that used in the Workstation 5 and 5A. This device can be installed for additional storage and backup purposes. It can also be configured as boot device and primary storage for POSReady 2009 or Linux images. eUSB Flash Drives are available in multiple capacities as described in the PMA.
Compact Flash Card
Like most MICROS workstations, the PCWS 2015 includes an externally accessible T ype 1 C ompact Flash Card Socket. It is s ecured by a plate held in place by allen head screws.
Like the USB Flash Drive, a CF card can be used for additional storage and backup. However, it is not recommended that the CF Card be used as the primary storage device as this prevents the socket from being used for an optional Recovery CF.
Optional Recovery CF Cards are available for both POSReady 2009 and Windows 7 that can return the unit to an out-of-box condition within minutes. The Recovery CF ships with a current factory image, but customer specific images can be substituted by simply editing a text file.
Pressing the Recovery Button, accessed through a hole in bottom of the workstation is detected by the BIOS. On the next power cycle, the BIOS changes the boot order to boot from the Recovery CF. A recovery script automatically starts GHOST to transfers the image to the primary storage device.
Once the image transfer is complete, the unit automatically reboots, the default boot order is restored and the workstation boots from the primary storage device.
The PCWS 2015 uses a new CF Riser Card, called the SATA to CF Riser Card. The new riser card installs in the same physical location as the original CF Riser Card so that it is accessible from the IO panel, but does not use the same system board connector used by the original CF Riser Card, which it replaces.
See Chapter 3 for more information about the SATA to CF Riser Card.
Memory Expansion
Current PCWS 2015 configurations ship with a single 2GB DDR3 SO-DIMM installed in socket SO-DIMM1, located on the top of the system board.
Removing a small door on the bottom of the workstation exposes the second SO-DIMM socket. Adding a second 2GB DDR3 SO-DIMM can increase the total memory size to 4GB.

The System
AC Input
The IO Panel AC Input connector is similar to that used on the Workstation 5/5A, and uses the same angled AC input connector compatible with the Workstation 5 and 5A Adjustable Stand.
IO Door
To accommodate the 10mm increase the overall height of the base, the 2015 uses a new IO Door. The new door features a flexible tab on one end to ease removal and installation.
VESA 100 Mount
The VESA 100 compatible mount on the base of the PCWS 2015 can support virtually any mounting from under a shelf to wall mount or an adjustable arm.

Software Platform
Software Platform
Software components include the BIOS, Operating System, the PCWS API, platform specific drivers, and utilities. These components are pre-installed on each unit to create a foundation upon which POS applications are installed using the Client Application Utility (CAL).
BIOS
The PCWS 2015 is based on the Phoenix SecureCore Tiano (SCT) BIOS. It is built on a decade of support for industry initiatives to handle the widest possible range of processors chip set and IO interfaces. The BIOS includes a pre-boot environment called UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) to provide optional features such as CF Recovery.
Operating Systems
Operating Systems supported by the PCWS 2015 includes both 32 and 64-bit versions Windows 7 Professional Embedded or Windows Embedded POSReady 2009. Formerly known as Windows Embedded for Point of Service (WEPOS), Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 is derived from W indows XP Professional, and tailored for the point of service environment.
Additionally, a Windows XP Professional image will be available for those who wish to downgrade from Windows 7 Professional.
PCWS API and MICROS OPOS Drivers
The PCWS API is used by MICROS applications to control MICROS specific ports such as the cash drawers, IDN printers, customer displays and mag card reader. The API also controls the operator display brightness and operator LED, while the most recent version included with the PCWS 2015 adds the ability to enable/disable the external USB ports.
Third party application designers can choose to utilize the PCWS API to directly control these ports or use the MICROS OPOS (Open POS) drivers. The MICROS OPOS drivers provide third party application developers an industry standard structure for controlling point of sale peripherals. The OPOS drivers interact with the PCWS API in place of controlling the ports directly.
The MICROS OPOS drivers are included in the POSReady 2009 and W indows 7 Professional images, but not installed.
PCWS 2015 Diagnostics Utility
Utilities included with the PCWS 2015 include the WIN32 Client Application Loader (CAL), and an updated Diagnostics Utility for testing the unit.

Power Management States
Power Management S tates
Introduction
This section introduces the PCWS 2015 power management states. References to power management states are specified in bold capital letters,
e.g., NOPOWER, and ON. See chapter 3 for more information about operating the PCWS 2015.
UNPLUGGED
The AC power cord is not connected to a wall outlet. This state is also referred to as “ACPI G3 Mechanical Off.”
The Operator LED is Off.
The Operator LCD is blank.
The workstation can be safely disassembled when in this state.
NOPOWER
The AC power cable is attached, but the operating system and applications are not running. RAM contents are undefined.
The Operator LED is Off.
The Operator LCD is Blank. This is the ACPI S5 ‘soft-off’ state where the power supply remains active,
delivering minimal power to several key circuits in order to detect the power-button, recovery button or Wake-On-Lan event.
It is not safe to disassemble the workstation when in this state. Power supply components remain energized, presenting a shock hazard. Always remove the AC power cord from the IO Panel before disassembling the PCWS 2015.
ON
The Operating System and POS application are operating. RAM contents are maintained.
The Operator LED is solid Green.
Standby and Hibernate
Standby is available with POSReady and the more advanced Hibernate is available with Windows 7 Professional. Both power saving modes are supported at the hardware level, but may not be supported in some POS applications.
Last Power State Retention
The PCWS 2015 retains the last power state (ON or NOPOWER) in non-volatile memory . In B IOS Setup, the Power Failure Resto ration field in the Advanced ­Special Configuration menu determines how the unit behaves when AC power to the workstation fails and then returns.

PCWS 2015 BIOS
Advanced
ACPI Configuration
The PCWS 2015 defines two thermal zones, SYS and CPU. Each zone contains a sensor coupled to fan controllers located in the Super IO. At start-up, the BIOS configures the fan controllers using the default active trip points for the CPU and SYS fans.
Figure 2-5: Advanced - ACPI Configuration Fields
Active Trip Point SYS Fan
This field displays the temperature at which the SYS thermal zone activates the SYS fan. The SIO SYS fan controller continuously compares the system zone temperature to the SYS Active Trip Point. When the system temperature reaches 55°C (131°F), the fan starts. As the fan runs, the SYS fan thermal zone will cool to below 55°C and the fan slows down.
Note: the SYS Fan may not be installed on later production units.
Active Trip Point CPU Fan
This field displays the temperature at which CPU thermal zone increases the CPU fan speed. At start-up, the BIOS programs the controller to run the CPU fan at a continuous speed of about 2500RPM.
When the CPU zone temperature (as measured by T2, located near the CPU) exceeds the trip point value of 47°C, the CPU fan speed increases. When the increased fan speed brings the zone temperature below 47°C, the CPU fan speed returns to about 2500RPM.

Passive Trip Point [95C]
If the processor exceeds the Passive Trip Point Temperature the passive cooling policy is implemented. This may result in processor clock speed throttling.
Passive TC1 Value [1]
The Passive Thermal Compares Value is used as a constant for the TC1 Passive Cooling formula.
Passive TC2 Value [5]
The Passive Thermal Compares Value is used as a constant for the TC2 Passive Cooling formula.
Passive TSP Value [10]
The Passive Thermal Sampling Period value (in tenths of seconds) is used used to implement the Passive cooling equation. TSP along with TC1 and TC2, enables the proper hysteresis required by the system to accomplish an effective passive cooling policy.
Critical Trip Point [POR]
The Critical Trip Point is the temperature at which the operating system performs a critical, but orderly shutdown of the system. The default value ‘POR’ is the Plan of Record for the installed processor.
HPET Support [Enabled]
The PCH contains two High Precision Event Timers (HPET) used for ACPI Interrupt Mapping.
HPET Memory Map BAR (Base Address Registe r) [0FED0000]

The Special Configuration screen is shown in Figure 2-14, below. It contains custom BIOS fields specific to the PCWS 2015. This includes settings to determine the Powered RS232 Voltage, Cash Drawer Voltage or enable the WIN32 Factory Recovery feature.
Figure 2-14: Special Configuration Menu (BIOS O1301g)
Boot Test Image [Normal]
Enable or Disable the eUSB Hard Drive socket J3. The default selection of [Normal] causes the BIOS to boot from the USB Flash Drive socket (if installed).
Setting this field to [Alternate] disables the eUSB Hard Drive by removing power from socket J3, forcing the BIOS to boot from a removable thumb drive attached to an IO panel USB Port.
Boot Test Image is used for Windows CE configurations, and is not valid when used in WIN32 booting from a SATA disk drive or RAID.
Cash Drawer Voltage [12V]
This selection determines the Cash Drawer solenoid voltage. The default selection of 12V is suitable for all MICROS Cash Drawers.
COM Port Voltage [5V] or [0V]
This selection determines the voltage used by COM1, the Powered RS232 Port on the IO Panel. Selections include 5V, 9V, and 12V.
BIOS Version O1301g or later defaults to 0V.
Personality Module [CF]
This field determines the loca tion of the persistent registry; eithe r the CF or USB Flash Drive. It is used for Windows CE configurations, and is not valid when used with WIN32 operating systems.

Power Failure Restoration [Last State]
This selection determines how the PCWS 2015 recovers from a power failure, should it occur during operation.
The default selection of [Last State] causes the workstation to return to the previous power state before AC power failed. For example, if the PCWS 2015 is ON and AC power suddenly fails, it automatically restarts when AC power is restored.
Conversely, if the 2015 is in the NOPOWER (Soft-Off) state when AC power fails, it remains in the NOPOWER state when AC power is restored.
Other selections include [Power On] and [Remain Off]. The [Remain Off] setting requires the user to press the power button to
restart the unit after AC power is restored. The [Power On] setting causes the unit to automatically power-up when the
AC power cable is connected to the unit or when AC power is restored after an AC Power failure.
SATA Port 2 [Enabled]
On 2015 Revision C Boards, the BIOS temporarily disables SAT A Port 2 at start-up to avoid excessive delays at boot time if a CF card is not installed.
WIN32 Factory Recovery [Disabled]
Enable or Disable the WIN32 Factory Recovery. WIN32 Factory Recovery requires an optional PCWS 2015 Recovery CF
for each supported operating system, currently POSReady 2009 and Windows 7 Professional.
When you install the Recovery CF and set this field to [Enabled], the BIOS changes the system boot order to boot from the Recovery CF.
Each Recovery CF contains a pre-boot environment and start-up scripts that automatically start the GHOST utility and transfer the factory (or user specified) image to the PCWS 2015 boot device. When the image transfer is complete, the workstation re-starts and boot order is reset to the previous configuration.
BIOS Version 1301g or later optionally adds the ability to require a password to start the recovery CF.
If you have BIOS O1301g or later, see page 2-32 to configure the Supervisor password that will be required to start the Recovery CF.
See Chapter 4 for more information about using the Recovery CF.

Power Supply Cover and Fans
Figure 3-5 shows the Power Supply Cover and 60mm CPU fan positioned over the base. The CPU fan speed is controlled by a sensor located near the CPU.
The CPU fan draws ambient air in through slots at the front of the base. The power supply cover forms a duct to direct the incoming air across the heat pipe radiator and power supply before it exits the unit on the left side of the base.
The CPU fan runs at full speed at start-up. After the operating system starts, the CPU fan slows to an inaudible 2500 RPM and runs continuously.
Figure 3-5: PCWS 2015 Fan Operation
Should the CPU thermal zone trip point value exceed 47°C, the fan speed increases to compensate. Increasing the fan speed cools the CPU thermal zone and eventually, when the trip point drops below 47°C, the CPU fan slows to 2500RPM.
The 30mm System Fan is located on the right side of the base, just in front of the right speaker. The System Fan is controlled by a sensor located near the SODIMM1 Socket. The SYS fan runs only when necessary, drawing ambient air across the SO-DIMM sockets and the remainder of the System Board before exiting the right side of the base.
The System Fan will be removed after the first 1000 units.

CF Riser Cards
Like all recent MICROS Workstations, the PCWS 2015 includes a CF Card slot accessible from the IO Panel. It can be used for the available Recovery CF Cards. Also, CF Cards of virtually any size can added for removable mass storage. With the introduction of the PCWS 2015 System Board Revision D, the DMA Enabled CF Card used in the WS5A returns.
SATA CF Riser XBRG15 (Revision C System Board Only)
The PCWS 2015 with a Revision C board uses a version of the CF Riser Card called the SATA CF Riser Card. Unlike the original CF Riser Card, the SATA CF Riser Card cont ain s ac ti ve circ uitry in t he form of a S ATA to IDE bridge and uses a modified CF bracket as shown below.
The SATA CF Riser Card installs in the same footprint as the original CF Riser Card but does not attach to the IDE1 connector. In other words, it will not install in any MICROS workstation with the exception of the PCWS 2015 with a Revision C System Board.
The SATA CF Riser Card incl udes two connectors, one for data and one for power. F igure 3-9 displays t he power and data cables that mus t be attached to the Revision C System Board.
