Protect Mode

The Eaton XP-503 family of products has a unique and

exclusive Protect Mode feature that safeguards the integrity

of files stored on the Ce: drive of your operating system.

This feature ensures that data and operating system files

cannot be modified by anyone or corrupted by unexpected

power disruptions. As a result, you can be confident that

the XP-503 meets your rigorous industrial environmental

requirements and can be protected against all unauthorized

alterations.

For more details on the operation of Protect Mode, consult

the XP-503 OS Windows Embedded information manual.

Creating a Backup/Restore Point for Your XP System

It is strongly recommended that the user back up the XP’s

operating system after the unit is received, powered up, and

placed in Protect Mode. This is so that in the unlikely event

of an unintentional corruption of the operating system, the

user will be able to recover the unit to its original factory

settings. Under the Start menu’s Maintenance folder are

utilities to back up and restore the XP unit and to create a

system repair disk and system image.
