December 15 th, 2015 Hardware Compatibility List ETAS RTPC 6.2.0 Introduction The purpose of this document is to guide the user in the selection of a suitable PC for the installation of ETAS RTPC 6.2.0. For finding suitable PCs for older versions of ETAS RTPC, please contact the ETAS support. The HW compatibility list differentiates between released PCs, on which ETAS RTPC 6.2.0 has been deeply tested, and known-installation PCs, on which ETAS RTPC 6.2.0 is known to run but no deep testing has been performed. If none of the PCs in both categories is available in your region, some general requirements and hints for selecting other PCs are given. While ETAS RTPC 6.2.0 runs on most PCs with Intel processor, ETAS strongly recommends using the released PCs. Only for these PCs, ETAS can warrant high-quality support.

If none of the released PCs is available in your region, please do one of the following: Call ETAS support for the latest update of this document. Alternatively select a PC which has the same set of CPU, main board and memory as one of the released PCs. These components and their compatibility determine whether a PC is suitable for ETAS RTPC. If you nevertheless want to select your own hardware obey the following three steps. But please keep in mind that ETAS cannot guarantee that this PC will also be supported by upcoming versions of ETAS RTPC. 1 st step General Hardware requirements Check if the following requirements are fulfilled: CPU Onboard Ethernet Adapter RAM South bridge chip Hard Disk Keyboard Graphic Adapter Removable Media Drive PCI/PCIe Ethernet Adapter Intel Core i7 Intel Core2Quad Intel Core2Duo Intel Xeon All types supported by Linux kernel version 3.2.x (e.g. Realtek 8139, SiS900, Intel 8255x, Intel 82573x, Intel Gigabit Network Connection 82574L, 82583V, 82567V-3, 82567LM-4, 82567LM-3, 82567LF-3, 82567V-4, 82577LM, 82577LC, 82578DM, 82578DC) 4 GB mandatory; 8 GB recommended ICH 2,4,5,6,7,8, 9 for example the Intel chipsets 915, 925, 945, 955, 965, 975, E7230 and X38, X48 and X58 IDE or SATA / 250 GB or more PS/2 or USB, for installation only VGA compatible adapter (text mode only) Bootable / IDE, SATA or USB DVD - Intel PRO/100 card S, revision 12 (0C) or later - Intel PRO/1000 family - Intel PRO/1000 PT Quad Server Adapter PCIe Datei: ETAS RTPC V6.2.0 - Hardware Compatibility List.doc.
