1.0 Installing and upgrading your system
1.1 Unpacking your computer
Your PC is packed with ecologic moulded boxboard on four sides to keep it in place during transit.
The keyboard is on the top of the box, the other accessories are completely underneath.
Carefully unpack your computer and be sure to save all boxboards for future shipping and transportation.
To repack the PC it may be easier to place the moulded cushioning on the ends of the PC, and then slide the box over the PC together
with the cushioning, rather than lifting the PC.

1.2 Choosing a site for the system
All CIARA computers operate reliably in a typical office or home environment. Choose a location that is readily accessible and meets
the following requirements :
•Is near a grounded, three-pronged power outlet
•The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
•Is clean and dust free.
•Is well-ventilated and lighted and away from sources of heat.
•Is isolated from strong electromagnetic fields produced by electrical devices.
(I.e. air conditioners, large fans, large electric motors, radio and TV transmitters)
•Has an appropriate table or desk that will allow you to work without physical discomfort and strain.
The power supply input should be 120 V, 10 A and 60 Hz.
A few general precautions should always be observed :
•Never connect any peripheral such as a monitor to the system unit if the power is turned "ON". Always shut down the system
first.
•Never remove any internal adapter cards in the system unit if the power is turned "ON" as this will ruin the Card/Computer
and Void the Warranty.
•Never install and connect more peripherals than available power supply plugs to avoid exceeding the maximum power of the
system.
NOTE The Horizon D10500 and T10500 models come either with or without a power supply On/OFF switch. For those systems that do
not have a switch, make sure to shut down the system through Windows before proceeding to any repair or replacement work inside
the system.

1.3.3 Corrupted BIOS recovery
The ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 is an auto recovery tool that allows you to restore the BIOS file when it fails or gets corrupted during the
updating process. You can restore a corrupted BIOS file using the motherboard support DVD or a USB flash drive that contains the
updated BIOS file.
NOTE: Before using this utility, rename the BIOS file in the removable device into PB550MC.CAP.
• Download the latest BIOS file from the ASUS website at www.asus.com.
Recovering the BIOS
To recover the BIOS :
1. Turn on the system.
2. Insert the support DVD to the optical drive or the USB flash drive that contains the BIOS file to the USB port.
3. The utility automatically checks the devices for the BIOS file. When found, the utility reads the BIOS file and enters ASUS EZ Flash
2 utility automatically.
4. The system requires you to enter BIOS Setup to recover BIOS settings. To ensure system compatibility and stability, we
recommend that you press <F5> to load default BIOS values.
DO NOT shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS! Doing so can cause system boot failure.
1.3.4 System maintenance
Read and follow carefully all the instructions and warnings in this manual and on these products!
Only use a damp cloth to clean your system unit and monitor case. Do not use detergents!
Position your system unit, monitor and cables/wires away from direct sunlight, moisture, dust, oil, and thoroughfares.
Ensure that all ventilation outlets are always free from obstruction.
In the event of mechanical/power failure or damage, do not attempt to repair the system unit, monitors, cables /wires. Refer all such
problems to experienced service personnel.
Ensure that the back of the system unit is at least 6" away from anything that might obstruct the ventilation outlets and cause
overheating.
Ensure that the power source is grounded correctly. This product is equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug. This plug will only fit
into a grounded power outlet.

1.3.5 Using the CIARA Horizon D10500 / T10500
1.3.5.1 Introduction
The CIARA Horizon D10500 / T10500 is a powerful personal computer that has the ability to run a variety of operating systems. Unless
you have specified something different, your system comes configured with a Windows operating system pre-loaded onto the hard
drive. Each operating system comes with its own user manuals, and you should refer to these for information specific to your system.
1.3.5.2 A caution about viruses
Due to the prevalence of computer viruses, we strongly recommend that you take precautions to protect your computer from them.
Purchase and use a reputable virus-checking program. Ensure that the program is kept up to date by registering the program, and
installing updates as they become available. Please be aware, however, that even the best virus checking programs cannot be
regarded as the perfect solution. It is possible for even the best program to fail, particularly if it is not updated. Please contact your
CIARA account representative for more information.
1.3.5.3 Windows
Windows is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that provides a screen composed of icons. You select or “click” on the icons to run
programs. As noted above, Windows has been installed on your computer. For further information about using Windows, please
consult the appropriate Microsoft software manual provided with your CIARA Horizon D10500 / T10500.
1.3.5.4 Windows Server 2019, 2016 and Linux
Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016 and Linux are operating systems that provide sophisticated networking capabilities to
Windows based computers. The onboard Network Interface Card (NIC) in the computer allows the user to connect the CIARA Horizon
D10500 / T10500 to a network server computer running Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016 or Linux.
Microsoft and Linux provide workstations on the network with access to files and applications stored on the file server (a dedicated
computer running the Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016 or Linux operating systems), as well as access to shared printers
on the network. Sophisticated tools are built into the Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016 and Linux operating systems to
manage the network, and to restrict access to resources on the file server.
For further information about Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016 or Linux, please consult the manuals provided with the
network operating system (NOS), or speak to your service representative.

1.4 Troubleshooting your system after first install
1.4.1 Helpful hints
If you encounter some minor problems with the computer, monitor, or software, see the following list of general suggestions before
taking further action :
•Check that the computer and monitor are plugged into a working electrical outlet.
•When available check to see if power supply button is switched on.
•Check to see that the computer is turned on and the power light is on.
•Check to see that the monitor is turned on and the monitor light is on.
•Turn up the brightness and contrast controls of the monitor if the monitor is dim.
•Press and hold any key. If the system beeps, then the keyboard should be operating correctly.
•Check all cable connections for loose connections or incorrect connections.
•Wake the computer by pressing any key on the keyboard or pressing the power button. If the system remains in suspend
mode, shut down the computer by pressing and holding the power button for at least four seconds then press the power
button again to restart the computer. If the system will not shut down, unplug the power cord, wait a few seconds, and then
plug it in again. The computer will restart if automatic start on power loss is set in the BIOS. If it does not restart, press the
power button to start the computer.
•Be sure that all the needed device drivers have been installed. For example, if you are using a printer, you need a driver for
that model of printer.
•If you have installed an operating system other than the factory-installed operating system, check to be sure that it is
supported on the system.
•If the system has multiple video sources (embedded and PCI Express x16 adapters) and a single monitor, the monitor must
be plugged into one of the three video connectors of the system, i.e. DisplayPort or HDMI. Your system can support three
independent monitors using any of the three available video connectors. If a PCI Express x16 video controller is added, then
the system will support a fourth monitor connected to any of the ports of the video controller. This type of configuration will
require adjustments to the BIOS parameters.
