4 Boot IGEL
one
The boot procedure will last for only a few seconds and during this time the IGEL startup image is
displayed along with a progress bar. While booting, a series of services and settings is initiated,
including the network configuration. If your network is configured for the use of DHCP, no changes
are required
5 Choose a digital service
IGEL
one
is a 'single service device' - only
one of the digital services can be configured
and used on the client. A list of services
available on IGEL
one
is displayed during the
initial boot of the client (see picture).
Select one of the services and confirm your
choice by clicking on button
OK
. The device
will finish the boot procedure and IGEL
one
is
ready to use.
A change of the service available with IGEL
one
requires a total reset to factory defaults.
6 The IGEL Linux desktop
The IGEL linux desktop will be displayed with a task bar at its bottom and showing the Application
Launcher program to start your application (session). Application Launcher also gives information on
your IGEL product such as hardware and firmware information and allows to update, shutdown or
restart the device.
IGEL Setup program can be started from the Application Launcher to configure the terminal’s basic
settings (display, keyboard etc.) and define user sessions (depending on the digital service chosen
before). Basic system settings in the setup are described in the following.
