Product Warranty (2 years)

Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be

free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of pur-

chase.

This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by

persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or which have been

subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Advantech assumes no

liability under the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events.

Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of

our customers never need to use our repair service. If an Advantech product is defec-

tive, it will be repaired or replaced at no charge during the warranty period. For out-

of-warranty repairs, you will be billed according to the cost of replacement materials,

service time and freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.

If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:

1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU

speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and software used, etc.) Note

anything abnormal and list any onscreen messages you get when the problem

occurs.

2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product,

and any helpful information readily available.

3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return merchandise

authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us to process your return

more quickly.

4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and Replacement

Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt)

in a shippable container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date

is not eligible for warranty service.

5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and ship it prepaid

to your dealer.

1.7 Safety Precautions

Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord from chassis whenever

you work with the hardware. Do not make connections while the power

is on. Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by sudden

power surges. Only experienced electronics personnel should open the

PC chassis.

Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the

motherboard. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to electro-

static discharges. As a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap at

all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface

or in a static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis.

Caution! The computer is provided with a battery-powered real-time clock circuit.

There is a danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace

only with same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.

Discard used batteries according to manufacturer's instructions.

Caution! There is a danger of a new battery exploding if it is incorrectly installed.

Do not attempt to recharge, force open, or heat the battery. Replace the

battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the man-

ufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s

instructions.

1.8 Jumper Settings

This section provides instructions on how to configure your motherboard by setting

the jumpers. It also includes the motherboards's default settings and your options for

each jumper.

1.8.1 How to Set Jumpers

You can configure your motherboard to match the needs of your application by set-

ting the jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge that closes an electrical circuit. It consists

of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides

over the pins to connect them. To “close” (or turn ON) a jumper, you connect the pins

with the clip. To “open” (or turn OFF) a jumper, you remove the clip. Sometimes a

jumper consists of a set of three pins, labeled 1, 2, and 3. In this case you connect

either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3. A pair of needle-nose pliers may be useful when set-

ting jumpers.

1.8.2 CMOS Clear (CMOS1)

The AIMB-210 motherboard contains a jumper that can erase CMOS data and reset

the system BIOS information. Normally this jumper should be set with pins 1-2

closed. If you want to reset the CMOS data, set J1 to 2-3 closed for just a few sec-

onds, and then move the jumper back to 1-2 closed. This procedure will reset the

CMOS to its default setting.

1.9 System Memory

The AIMB-210 has one socket for a 200-pin SODIMMx1.

All these sockets use 1.8 V unbuffered double data rate synchronous DRAMs (DDR

SDRAM). They are available in capacities of 256, 512, and 1024 MB. The sockets

can be filled in any combination with DIMMs of any size, giving a total memory size

between 256 MB and 2 GB. AIMB-210 does NOT support ECC (error checking and

correction).

1.10 Memory Installation Procedures

To install SODIMMs, first make sure the two handles of the SODIMM socket are in

the “open” position, i.e., the handles lean outward. Slowly slide the SODIMM module

along the plastic guides on both ends of the socket. Then press the SODIMM module

well down into the socket, until you hear a click when the two handles have automat-

ically locked the memory module into the correct position of the SODIMM socket. To

remove the memory module, just push both handles outward, and the memory mod-

ule will be ejected by the mechanism.

A.1 Programming the Watchdog Timer

The AIMB-210's watchdog timer can be used to monitor system software operation

and take corrective action if the software fails to function within the programmed

period. This section describes the operation of the watchdog timer and how to pro-

gram it.

A.1.1 Watchdog Timer Overview

The watchdog timer is built into the super I/O controller W83627DHG. It provides the

following user-programmable functions:

Can be enabled and disabled by user program

Timer can be set from 1 to 255 seconds or 1 to 255 minutes

Generates an interrupt or resets signal if the software fails to reset the timer

before time-out

A.1.2 Programming the Watchdog Timer

The I/O port address of the watchdog timer is 2E (hex) and 2F (hex). 2E (hex) is the

address port. 2F (hex) is the data port. You must first assign the address of register

by writing an address value into address port 2E (hex), then write/read data to/from

the assigned register through data port 2F (hex).
