Intermec 6640 Reference Guide

This recovery procedure is a mechanism for reflashing

BIOS after a power failure or a crash during a normal

BIOS reflash.  To initiate a BIOS recovery on the 6640

Computer:

1. Insert the floppy drive into the parallel port, then inĆ

sert the 6640 Crisis Recovery" floppy disk into the

floppy drive.

2. Press and hold the Suspend/Resume button located on

the top I/O panel, then press the power button to turn

on the unit.

3. When the 6640 Computer's power is off, unplug the

floppy drive from the unit.

The crisis recovery is implemented in such a manner that

unit failure can occur at any point in the process without

causing undue problems.  If such a failure occurs, powerĆ

cycle the 6640 Computer and let it run again.
