2: System Environment Setting

When you install the system or change the system configuration, it is necessary to execute setup operations and to make configuration settings with the system setup utility. Note that if these settings are not done, you cannot install or operate your operating system and applications.

Before Operations

Be sure to read this section before conducting system environment settings.

Flow of System Environment Setting

When you initially use the system or after you changed the system configuration (for example, by installing an ISA board), you need to conduct system environment setting. There are two capabilities provided for system environment setting, the Setup Menu and the ISA Configuration Utility (ICU), which must be executed in the following procedure:

Start of the system environment setting

Turn off the system equipment, plug off the power cord,

and wait 30 seconds

Change the system configuration

Connect the power cord with the system equipment, and turn on power

Create backup disks for the ISA configuration utility disks

Execute the Setup Menu

Execute the ISA configuration utility

End of the system environment setting

Built-in devices must be added or exchanged by maintenance personnel only. Be sure to avoid removing the cover and installing/removing built-in devices. Otherwise, operation of the equipment shall not be guaranteed.
