2 Getting Started
The following chapter describes how to set up and operate the
ReadySystem™ 850.
2.1 Preparation
1. Unpack the contents of the shipping carton. Please
check that your package contains the items below. If you
discover damaged or missing items, please contact your
vendor.
ZReadySystem 850
ZAC adapter (12V DC output)
Z2x power cords (US, EU)
Optional items:
ZY-cable for PS/2 keyboard/mouse (P/N: 30-01016-0000)
2. Place the system on a flat work surface. Ensure there is
sufficient airflow clearance around the chassis.
WARNING:
DO NOT install or apply power to equipment that is damaged
or if there is missing/incomplete equipment. Retain the ship-
ping carton and packing materials for inspection. Please con-
tact your ADLINK dealer/vendor immediately for assistance.
Obtain authorization from your dealer before returning any
product to ADLINK.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the system, ensure there is sufficient
clearance around the air vents for unrestricted airflow. The air
temperature inside the enclosure could rise above the speci-
fied operating temperature limits if the airflow through the vents
is restricted.

2.2 Installation
Connecting Peripherals
Connect the desired peripheral devices (e.g. monitor, key-
board, mouse, LAN) to the system. Refer to Figure 2-1 below
for connector locations.
Figure 2-1: ReadySystem™ 850 Front Panel
NOTE:
NOTE:
The combined PS/2 keyboard/mouse connector requires an
optional Y-cable in order to connect both a keyboard and
mouse. A PS/2 keyboard can be directly connected to the sys-
tem without a Y-cable.

Installing a CompactFlash card
Before installing or removing a CompactFlash card, make sure
the system is powered off and the power supply is discon-
nected.
Use a phillips screwdriver to remove the two screws securing
the CompactFlash socket cover as shown below.
Figure 2-2: Removing the CF socket cover
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the ReadyBoard or the CompactFlash
card, make sure the system is powered off and the power sup-
ply is disconnected before installing or removing a Compact-
Flash card.
M3x0.5 Screws (2)
(Flat Head, 3mm)
CompactFlash
Protective Cover

10 Getting Started
Insert the CompactFlash card into the socket upside-down,
matching the pin-1 orientation of the card as shown.
Figure 2-3: Inserting the CF card
Push the CompactFlash card into the opening until it firmly
seats into the socket and mates with the pins. Do not force the
card into the socket.
Reinstall the socket cover to prevent the CompactFlash card
from coming loose and to provide protection from EMI interfer-
ence.
Removing a CompactFlash card
To remove a CompactFlash card, reverse the procedure
described above for installing a CompactFlash card. Use the
eject button on the R-hand side of the slot to eject the Com-
pactFlash card.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the ReadyBoard or the CompactFlash
card, do not force the card into the slot. If you need to force the
CompactFlash card into the slot, it is not installed correctly.
