Updated July 14, 2008 Chapter 4. Diagnostics and configuration settings This chapter provides information on the diagnostics, CMOS, and configuration settings for the SurePOS 720. Important Information SurePOS 720 require new POS I/O and LAN drivers. Existing drivers for Models 4694 and Models 4800 will not work properly with these products. This notice applies to all operating systems: DOS, 4690, Windows, and Linux. Additionally, a hard drive image for a predecessor product will not work properly. Be sure and download the appropriate drivers from the IBM Retail web site: http://www.ibm.com/solutions/retail/store/support. Service and diagnostics The service and diagnostics programs for the SurePOS 720 are available from the Retail Stores Web site at www.ibm.com/solutions/retail/store. Follow these steps to run the diagnostics: 1. Download the appropriate diagnostics image from the Web site and copy it to your media. 2. Ensure that your BIOS settings on the terminal are set to allow booting from the media for your installation. 3. Boot your system using the executable file. Using the BIOS setup program The BIOS Setup Utility is a program for viewing and configuring system functions. Some examples of these system functions are: v Setting the system time and date v Changing the boot device order v Configuring power management settings v Cash drawer power configuration v Setting passwords The settings controlled by the BIOS Setup utility are stored in nonvolatile memory. The default settings for most system functions controlled by the BIOS Setup Utility are acceptable for the majority of environments. Navigation and menus Use an attached PC keyboard to execute, navigate, and configure options. Start the BIOS Setup utility during the POST by pressing Del when the system prompts you to enter setup. Note: If the keyboard is USB-connected, you must connect to a PC USB port, and not a powered-USB port. Menus allow configuration of different system functions. Menus preceded by the > symbol have submenus. Use the arrow key to navigate the menus and use the Esc key to exit them. After you select a submenu, press Enter to open it. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2003, 2008 79
