Twist the wires 1-3 twists per inch.
Chapter 3 Initial Operation and Setup Chapter Objective This chapter provides information on: • operating recommendations • boot-up sequence • system reset and Power On Self Test (POST) • Universal Serial Bus (USB) • Windows NT networking • Windows 2000 touchscreen driver installation Operating Recommendations We recommend the following operating guidelines for the RAC6181 Computer: • Avoid turning the system on and off frequently.
3–2 Initial Operation and Setup System Checkout To boot up the system: 1. Apply power to the computer. The RAC6181 Computer performs a Power On Self Test (POST) in which it tests the processor board, memory, keyboard, and certain peripheral devices. 2. The RAC6181 Computer displays the progress of the POST and initialization of accessory devices. 3. If your system does not boot up, or you notice other problems, refer to Chapter 11, System Troubleshooting. 4.
Initial Operation and Setup Using USB 3–3 The RAC6181 Computer has two USB connectors. The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is an external bus standard that supports data transfer rates of 12Mbps (12 million bits per second). A single USB port can connect multiple peripheral devices, such as mice, modems, and keyboards. USB also supports Plug-and-Play installation and hot plugging. For more information on installing or using USB, refer to the documentation for your USB peripheral device.
3–4 Initial Operation and Setup Publication 6181-UM001D-EN-P
Initial Operation and Setup 3–5 Initial Startup and Service Packs The initial system startup begins with the NT operating system at Service Pack 1, and enters Window NT Workstation Setup. During setup, the system is built, the drivers and applications are installed, user information is gathered via the start-up dialogs. At the end of setup, the current Service Pack is automatically installed and is visible when the system is restarted.

Appendix C Using a Touchscreen Appendix Overview This appendix describes how to configure a touchscreen to work with a RAC6181 Computer. Topics include: • Installing touchscreen driver software • Calibrating the touchscreen • Touchscreen interface RAC6181 Computers with Touchscreen The RAC6181 Computer can be ordered with an optional touchscreen. The following table describes the touchscreen and controller board used for the RAC6181 Computer: Value Non-Keypad Version 12.
C–2 Using a Touchscreen Note: The 6181 12.1 inch keypad bezel computer uses a Touchko WIN32 touch screen application instead of an operating system driver. This means the touch screen is not active until after the operating system is completely booted. This application is factory configured to automatically start during the operating system boot. It is placed in the appropriate start-up folder for the Windows operating system.
Using a Touchscreen C–3 To calibrate the touchscreen: 1. Locate the Elo calibration utility in the Control Panel or insert the touchscreen driver diskette in the floppy drive of the RAC6181 Computer. 2. Using the appropriate commands for your operating system, run the Elo calibration utility. 3. Follow the instructions in the Elo calibration utility to complete the calibration process.
