12.2.10 Test the RM Module

If errors occur during the following steps, use the Boot Sequence table below to identify which modules
are responsible. If necessary, contact the local Customer Care Center for help.

01 Switch on standby power. Make sure the system is connected to an external power source, then turn
on the MAIN power switch on the back of the AC power tray.
02 Power up the system. Press the green STANDBY button on the Control Panel. Verify that the following
occurs within the first four (4) seconds of bootup:
The LEDs on the AC power tray illuminate.
The standby button changes to solid green.
The fans switch on.
The control panel emits a click, indicating that the power-on self-test (POST) is complete.

03 Verify the video initialization.

04 Verify that the BIOS loads.
About 17 seconds after the system has been powered on, the BIOS initiates a POST and the “Siemens”
screen displays. After about 30 seconds, the system clicks.
05 Verify that Windows operating system loads. The Windows operating system screen displays as the
operating system loads. This takes about one (1) minute. Note any error messages that appear during
this time.
06 Verify that syngo loads. syngo takes about two (2) minutes to load. During this time the system
displays the startup window, which displays a number count.
The system emits three (3) “clicks” when the syngo diagnostics become available.
The syngo user interface displays when loading is complete.

07 Verify that the system properly functions by selecting various buttons on the control panel and
viewing expected changes on the system monitor.

The following table summarizes the boot sequence for the system.
