1.2.8 Setup Boot up timer:
A) If we will use Windows OS, after set up boot up timer under BIOS menu, we need
to wait system boot into OS and then shut down the UTC-515 properly. Then the
UTC-515 can boot up automatically at the timing we set.
B) If we will use DOS, after set up boot up timer under BIOS menu, we need to wait
until we see C:/ and then turn off the UTC-515 by power switch. Then the UTC-
515 can boot up automatically at the timing we set.

2.1 A Quick Tour of the UTC-515
Before you start to set up the UTC-515, take a moment to become familiar with the
locations and purposes of the controls, drives, connectors and ports, which are illus-
trated in the figures below.
When you place the UTC-515 upright on the desktop, its front panel appears as
shown in Figure 2.1.
Figure 2.1 Front view of UTC-515
When you turn the UTC-515 around and look at its rear cover, you will find the I/O
section as shown in Fig. 2.2. (The I/O section includes various I/O ports, including
serial ports, Ethernet ports, USB ports, VGA, and Compact Flash slot.)

2.2 Installation Procedures
2.2.1 Connecting the power cord
The UTC-515 can be powered by a DC electrical outlet. Be sure to always handle the
power cords by holding the plug ends only. Please follow the Figure 2.5 to connect
the male plug of the power cord to the DC inlet of the UTC-515.
2.2.2 Connecting the keyboard or mouse
Before you start the computer, please connect keyboard port on the I/O section of the
UTC-515.
2.2.3 Switching on the power
When you look at the rear side of the UTC-515, you will see the power switch as
shown in Figure 2.2.

UTC-515 User Manual 10
2.3 Running the BIOS Setup Program
Your UTC-515 is likely to have been properly set up and configured by your dealer
prior to delivery. You may still find it necessary to use the UTC-515's BIOS (Basic
Input-Output System) setup program to change system configuration information,
such as the current date and time or your type of hard drive. The setup program is
stored in read-only memory (ROM). It can be accessed either when you turn on or
reset the UTC-515, by pressing the “Del” key on your keyboard immediately after
powering on the computer.
The settings you specify with the setup program are recorded in a special area of
memory called CMOS RAM. This memory is backed up by a battery so that it will not
be erased when you turn off or reset the system. Whenever you turn on the power,
the system reads the settings stored in CMOS RAM and compares them to the
equipment check conducted during the power on self-test (POST). If an error occurs,
an error message will be displayed on screen, and you will be prompted to run the
setup program.
2.4 Installing System Software
Recent releases of operating systems from major vendors include setup programs
which load automatically and guide you through hard disk preparation and operating
system installation. The guidelines below will help you determine the steps necessary
to install your operating system on the UTC-515 hard drive.
Installing software requires an installed HDD. Software can be loaded in the UTC-515
using any of four methods:
2.4.1 Method 1: Ethernet
You can use the Ethernet port to download software to the HDD.
2.4.2 Method 2: External USB CD-ROM
If required, insert your operating system's installation or setup diskette into the dis-
kette drive until the release button pops out.
The BIOS of UTC-515 supports system boot-up directly from the CD-ROM drive. You
may also insert your system installation CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
Power on your UTC-515 or reset the system by pressing the “Ctrl+Alt+Del” keys
simultaneously. The UTC-515 will automatically load the operating system from the
diskette or CD-ROM.
If you are presented with the opening screen of a setup or installation program, follow
the instructions on screen. The setup program will guide you through preparation of
your hard drive, and installation of the operating system. If you are presented with an
operating system command prompt, such as A:\>, then you must partition and format
your hard drive, and manually copy the operating system files to it. Refer to your
operating system user manual for instructions on partitioning and formatting a hard
drive.
Note! Some distributors and system integrators may have already pre-
installed system software prior to shipment of your UTC-515.

Chapter 2 System Setup
2.5 Installing the Drivers
After installing your system software, you will be able to set up the Ethernet, XGA,
audio, and touchscreen functions. All drivers are stored in a CD-ROM disc entitled
“Drivers and Utilities” which can be found in your accessory box.
The various drivers and utilities in the CD-ROM disc have their own text files which
helps users install the drivers and understand their functions. These files are a very
useful supplement to the information in this manual.
Note! The drivers and utilities used for the UTC-515 are subject to change
without notice.
If in doubt, check Advantech's website or contact our application engi-
neers for the latest information regarding drivers and utilities.
