located on the front of the PC Workstation, behind the Hardware
Control Panel. It is designed to detect whether your PC Workstation
has been opened since the last time it was used:
•If your PC Workstation has been opened, it is assumed that the
system configuration has changed and a full start-up check is carried
out.
•If your PC Workstation has not been opened, it is assumed that the
system configuration has not changed and a reduced start-up check
is carried out.
