This article provides steps for using NCR imaging suite software with the EloPOS All-In-One (AIO) Touch Computer.
Notes:
- Network rules should allow UDP port 137 for NetBIOS traffic
- Network adapter should allow NetBIOS over TCP/IP
- Network shared folder (location to store and deploy captured images)
- Windows server or workstation
- No other DHCP service should exist on the network segment
- Works with and without a network gateway
- When adding additional drivers to Boot.wim, maintained file under 400MB

Instructions:
- Connect server “PXE server” and EloPOS “PXE client” on the same network segment
- On the PXE server, assign an IPv4 static address of 10.10.10.2, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, gateway 10.10.10.1, DNS 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4
- Create a network shared folder labeled “Images”
- Go into the folder \PXEBOOT-WINPE\UEFI\ and launch tftpd32.exe
- Configure the TFTP tab with the settings shown below
- Next, configure DHCP tab with the settings shown below
- On the Tftpd32 main window, select the server interface 10.10.10.2
- Go to the folder \ImagingSuite_5.4.0.4\Utilities\ and launch ImagingServer.exe
- Select Capture or Apply Image. In this example, we have a captured image ready.
- Click Choose Share and select the “Images” network shared folder
- Enter credentials allowed to access the shared folder
- Click Browse to select a previously captured image (.wim)
- Click Start
- On the PXE client, enabled PXE boot and UEFI mode in the BIOS settings
- Perform an IPv4 network boot
- Wait for the PXE client to receive a DHCP address from the PXE server
- Wait for PXE client to download boot.wim boot file.
- Wait for PXE client to enter pre-boot environment and load the network driver.
- Wait for PXE client to automatically launch ImageClient.exe
- Choose to Connect to NCR server
- If the IP address of the PXE server appears, the PXE client is ready to receive an image.
Other notes:
- When boot.wim is larger than 400MB, EloPOS will crash. Remove unnecessary drivers to reduce the size of the file. Use DISM utility in Windows to modify and cleanup .wim files.
- ImagingServer.exe will use NetBIOS service to communicate with ImageClient.exe
