Getting Started
Applying Power
Before applying power, ensure that the floppy disk drive does not contain a
disk.
Imagestore does not have a power on/off switch and power is applied
immediately when the IEC plug is connected to mains power. The product
should be connected to the mains via an appropriate circuit breaker.
Boot-Up Sequence
Once power is applied Imagestore boots automatically and the complete
process takes about 50 seconds. The unit first checks to see if there is a disk
in the floppy drive and, if it finds one, it will attempt to boot from that disk.
Miranda Technologies Ltd issues specialised floppy disks for use as part of
the boot-up sequence when software upgrades are being implemented. No
other disk should ever be present in the floppy disk drive during the boot
sequence. The boot sequence is complete when the following top level "boot-
up" menu appears on the front panel VFD display.
