Quickpanel + Os Utilities Settings Tool - GE IC755CxS06RDx User Manual

3.9 QuickPanel
DIP switches are set in the
OFF position (default) in the
factory.
The DIP Switch feature is
designed as a security
measurement. However,
security requirements can also
be met using the gesture-based
feature.
Prior to the listed firmware
builds, these operations were
only supported using the DIP
Switch settings.
Software
For public disclosure
+ OS Utilities Settings Tool
The QuickPanel + Operator Interface is equipped with DIP switches to perform control
functionality, as follows:
• DIP Switch 1 (SW2 Switch) enables firmware upgrade. Firmware upgrade is
allowed only after turning this switch in the ON position. It is highly recommended
to turn the switch position to OFF after firmware upgrade is completed as a security
measurement.
• DIP Switch 2 (SW2 Switch) controls Force Startup. Turning this switch to the ON
position forces the startup applications to run when the operating system is started.
Some operators find it difficult to use the DIP Switch settings to perform these functions
(such as removing the back plate of the device and adjusting the positions of DIP Switch
for each operation). As an alternative to using the DIP Switch settings, the QuickPanel
OS Utilities Settings tool contains finger gesture-based utilities to perform the same
operations. This functionality is available with the firmware builds listed in the following
table.

The tool operation buttons for each utility only respond to a double-tap finger gesture. It
will not accept any keyboard or mouse clicks, finger simulator-based inputs, or click
inputs from any remote touch-based device. The user can access the tool from the Start
menu by selecting Programs, System, and QuickPanel
the device. The tool can be used to perform the following operations using the double-tap
feature, without adjusting the DIP Switch positions:
• Firmware Upgrade
• Bypass Startup Programs
• Reset Enhanced Security
• Enable/Disable SNMP Agent

For security, only permit these operations when the
