Getting started

Please observe the safety information in the "Important information", Page 3 chapter.

Unpacking and checking the equipment supplied

Keep the original packaging of the equipment in case you need to return it.

Remove all the equipment from the packaging.
After removal from the packaging, check the equipment for evidence of damage in transport.
Check that that the equipment matches the delivery note.
If you find damage in transport or a mismatch with the delivery note, inform your sales office without delay!

Steps for initial startup

Only a few steps are required to start up your machine for the first time:

• Select the position for your machine and place it there
• Connect the external devices
• Check the rated voltage and connect the machine to the mains
• Switch on the machine

You can find more details on the individual steps in the following sections.

External devices

If you wish to attach other external devices (such as a printer) to your machine, complete the initial installation of your machine before connecting them. The steps for connecting these external devices are described in the following sections.

Drives and modules

If you wish to fit other drives or modules to your machine, complete the initial installation of your machine before fitting them. The steps for fitting drives and modules are described in the "AMILO Desktop" manual in the chapter"System expansion".

Setting up the device

When installing your device, please read the recommendations and safety notes in the "Safety" manual.

Do not place the machine in any position other than the one intended (upright on its feet).

We recommend that you place your device on a surface with good anti-slip qualities. In view of the multitude of different finishes and varnishes used on furniture, it is possible that the rubber feet will mark the surface they stand on.

Do not stack several devices on top of each other.

Do not start the machine in any position other than upright on its feet.

Depending on the location of your machine, it may emit annoying vibration or noises. To avoid this, allow a minimum clearance of 3mm from other equipment or objects at the sides of the casing where there are no ventilation grilles.

Make sure that the device is adequately ventilated. In order to avoid overheating, do not cover the ventilation area of the monitor or the device.

Do not expose the device to extreme ambient conditions (see "AMILO Desktop L / AMILO Desktop P", Page 16, "Ambient conditions"). Protect the device against dust, humidity and heat.

Connecting external devices

Read the documentation on the external device before connecting it. With the exception of USB devices, always remove all power plugs before connecting external devices!

Do not connect or disconnect cables during a thunderstorm.

Always take hold of the actual plug. Never unplug a cable by pulling the cable itself.

Connect and disconnect the cables in the order described below.

Connecting the cables

Turn off all power and equipment switches.
Remove all power plugs from the grounded mains outlets.
Connect all the cables to the device and the external devices. Please make sure that you always observe the safety notes provided in "Important information", Page 3.
Plug all data communication cables into the appropriate sockets.
Plug all power cables into the grounded mains outlets.

Disconnecting the cables

Switch off all affected devices.
Remove all power plugs from the grounded mains outlets.
Unplug all data communication cables from the appropriate sockets.
Disconnect all of the cables from the device and from the external devices.

Connecting the monitor

Follow the instructions contained in the monitor manual to prepare the monitor for operation (e.g. connecting cables).
Plug the data cable into the monitor port of the device.

Depending on the expansion stage of your machine and your monitor, you can also connect the data cable to the DVI interface.

Plug the monitor power cable into the grounded mains outlet.

Mouse and keyboard

Your machine is supplied with a mouse and a keyboard. A description of these devices can be found in the operating instructions for the "AMILO Desktop".

Connecting the mouse and keyboard

Connect the mouse and keyboard each to a USB port, see "Connecting external devices to the USB ports", Page 9.

Connecting external devices to the USB ports

You can connect a wide range of external devices to the USB ports (e.g. printer, scanner, modem or keyboard).

USB devices are hot-pluggable. This means you can connect and disconnect USB cables while your device is switched on.

Additional information can be found in the documentation for the USB devices.

Connect the data cable to the external device.
Connect the data cable to one of the USB ports on your device.

Device drivers

The external USB devices you connect to the USB ports usually require no driver of their own, as the required software is already included in the operating system. However, if the external USB device requires its own software, please install it from the data carrier provided with the USB device.

To ensure USB 2.0, the length of the cable used between the front USB port of your device and the external USB device must not exceed 3m .

Connecting the machine to the mains

Connect the mains cable to the machine (1).
Plug the mains plug into a three-pin socket (2).

Switching on for the first time: installing the software

If the device is integrated into a network, the user and server details as well as the network protocol are required during the software installation.

When you switch on the device for the first time, the supplied software is installed and configured. Plan a reasonable amount of time for this, as this process must not be interrupted.

Once the installation has been started the device must not be switched off, unless the installation has been completed.

During installation, the device may only be rebooted when you are requested to do so! The installation will otherwise not be carried out correctly and the contents of the hard disk must be completely restored.

Switch on the monitor and the machine

Switch on the monitor (see operating instructions for the monitor).

Switch the main switch at the back of the machine to position "l" (1).
Press the on/off button on the front of the machine.
The operational display will light up and the machine will start.

Installation of the software

During installation, follow the instructions on the screen.
If anything is unclear regarding the data you are asked to input, read the online Help in your operating system.

Further information on the system, its drivers, utilities and updates can be found in the manual for reinstalling installed software and on the Internet under "http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/support".

Operation

Switch the device on

If necessary, switch the monitor on (see the operating manual for the monitor).
Press the ON/OFF switch on the front of the device.

Switching off the device

Shut down the operating system properly.
If the operating system does not automatically switch the device into power-saving mode or switch it off, press the ON/OFF switch for at least 4 seconds.
The device then consumes a minimum amount of energy.

The ON/OFF switch does not fully disconnect the TV from the mains voltage. To completely disconnect the mains voltage, remove the power plug from the power socket.
If necessary, switch the monitor off (see the operating manual for the monitor).
