To Prevent Accidents
• Since the HDD unit is a precision instrument, be sure it is neither hit by nor
pressed strongly against another object. After unpacking, be sure the unit is not
dropped or jolted during installation. Also, a PS-B built in to a larger unit (i.e.
operation panel) should be removed and packed separately prior to shipping.
• Be sure water, liquids or metal particles are not allowed to enter the HDD unit.
Any of these may cause either a breakdown or an electrical shock.
• Do not place or store this unit in a location where there is direct sunlight, exces-
sive heat, dust or vibration.
• Do not store or operate this unit near chemicals, or where there are chemical fumes.
• Do not allow anyone other than Pro-face’s own service staff to perform mainte-
nance or adjustments to this unit.
• Do not move or shift the PS-B while the HDD unit is installed and the PS-B
unit's power is ON.
• Do not use the HDD unit in locations where corrosive gasses are present, since
they can lead to a hard disk breakdown.
• To prevent damage to file data, be sure to shut down the PS-B unit's OS before
turning OFF the main power.
• To prevent HDD memory leaks, restart the OS periodically.
• In order to extend the lifetime of the hard disk, Pro-face recommends you set the
Windows [Control panel]-[Power Management option]-[Turn off hard disks]
selection to turn the hard disk off when the unit is not being operated. A setting
of 5 minutes is recommended.
• Be sure to check that the PS-B’s power is disconnected be-
fore installing the unit, in order to prevent an electrical shock.
• Do not attempt to modify or open the HDD unit, since it can
cause a shock or fire.
• When installing the HDD unit, be sure to read the following “2.
Installation” section’s information completely to insure that
the unit is correctly installed.
• When this HDD unit is disposed of, it should be done so according
to your country's regulations for similar types of industrial waste.

• The environment specifications given here are for a unit installed
in a PS-B.
• Pro-face does not guarantee the preservation of any data stored
on the HDD unit if the HDD unit has an accident, malfunctions or
is damaged in any way. Therefore, the regular backing up of im-
portant HDD unit data to either a floppy disk, or other type of suit-
able magnetic media is strongly recommended.
• This HDD unit has a finite usage lifetime. The lifetime figure given
in this document is for reference, and the periodic replacement of
the current HDD unit with a new HDD unit is strongly advised.
• Using the HDD unit in an environment that is excessively hot and/
or humid will shorten the disk’s usage lifetime. A wet bulb tem-
perature of 29oC or less is recommended. This is equivalent to the
following data.
• In order to extend the lifetime of the hard disk, Pro-face recom-
mends you set the Windows [Control panel]-[Power Management
option]-[Turn off hard disks] selection to turn the hard disk off
when the unit is not being operated. A setting of 5 minutes is rec-
ommended.

6 HDD Recovery Procedure
• After performing hard disk recovery, the PS-B unit’s
hard disk is returned to its factory shipped condition.
• For recovery, the following things are required;
The PS-B unit, HDD to be recovered, a CD-ROM drive
(PSB-CD/FD01 or a commercial USB-type CD-ROM
drive), and a PS/2 keyboard.
Use the following steps used to recover the Windows®XP Multi-Language
Preinstalled Hard Disk.
1. Insert the Recovery CD's Disk 1 into the CD-ROM drive and turn the PS-B
unit's power ON. Immediately after the power turns ON, keep pressing the
[F2] key. The unit's BIOS Setup Screen will appear.
2. Select [CDROM] for [First Boot Device] of [Advanced BIOS Features].
(When using a commercial USB-type CD-ROM drive, select [USB-CDROM]
for [First Boot Device].)
3. Press the [F10] key to save the setting and restart the PS-B unit.
4. After the PS-B unit restarts, the Symantec GhostTM will automatically start.
5. After the Symantec GhostTM starts, the [Question] dialog box will appear.
"Partition sizes correct?"
6. The volume displayed in New Size will be recovered. After confirming it,
press the [Yes] button. To change it, press the [No] button and go to the
[Destination Drive Details] dialog box. In the [Destination Drive Details]
dialog box, change the size of the New Size and press the [OK] button.
7. The [Question] dialog box will appear. Press the [Yes] button. It will be
reconfirmed that the data of the hard disk is all reset to the original values
at the time of delivery.
"Proceed with disk restore?
Destination drive will be permanently overwritten."
8. The Recovery CD's Disk 1's hard disk recovery program will start.
You will be prompted several times. Please replace the Recovery CD Disk
each time as instructed.

-15-
• If the hard disk unit breaks down due to a hardware prob-
lem, (Ex. if BIOS cannot find the hard disk, if the hard disk's
lifetime expires, or it breaks down), Symantec GhostTM can-
not recover the hard disk. Pro-face recommends that in this
case you contact your local PS-B distributor for instruc-
tions about hard disk recovery or replacement.
• Pro-face does not guarantee the preservation of any data
stored on the HDD unit if the HDD unit has an accident,
malfunctions or is damaged in any way. Therefore, the
regular backing up of important HDD unit data to either
floppy disks, or other type of suitable magnetic media is
strongly recommended.
9. After the recovery operation finishes, Symantec GhostTM finishes and the
following message will appear.
After the message appears, turn off the power supply of the unit.
"Please turn off the computer."
10. After turning on the power supply once again, push the [F2] key to go to
the BIOS Setup Screen.
11. In the Setup screen, set Load Optimized Defaults to reset all BIOS set-
tings to their original values at the time of delivery. When using FD, set
[1.44M, 3.5 in] for [Drive A] of [Standard CMOS Features]. Press the
[F10] key to save the settings and restart the unit.
12. After the unit restarts, set up your OS.
