1.1 Introduction
AIS-Q574 adopts the Intel® CoreTM i3/i5/i7 LGA 1156 Processors.
The chipset is equipped with Intel
®
Q57. Moreover, the system
memory features two DDR3 1066/1333 MHz DIMM up to 4 GB. It
deploys two LAN ports that consist of 10/100/1000Base-TX
Ethernet RJ-45 ports. AIS-Q574 condensed appearance features
desktop and wallmount form factor that fits nicely into a
space-limited environment.
This AIS-Q574 equipped with two 3.5” Hard Disk Drive with SATA
3.0Gb/s interface and one optional slim DVD-RW. Moreover, the
flexible expansion interfaces feature one PCI-Express[x16], one
PCI-Express[x4], and two PCI-Express[x1] x 2 slots. In addition,
this model supports two COM ports and eight USB2.0 (four ports
at I/O interfaces and four ports on the front panel). Furthermore,
the Realtek ALC888 supports HD audio codec and the AIS-Q574
can support dual displays with VGA and DVI via Intel
®
Q57.
With the increasing demands of high performance in audio and
video, AAEON released the specific Advanced System Controller
to fulfill the needs of the applications, such as Factory Automation,
Building Automation, and etc.

2.5 Setting Jumpers
You configure your card to match the needs of your application by
setting jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. 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”
a jumper you connect the pins with the clip.
To “open” a jumper you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will
have three pins, labeled 1, 2 and 3. In this case you would connect
either pins 1 and 2 or 2 and 3.

A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with
jumpers.
If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for
your application, contact your local distributor or sales
representative before you make any change.
Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most
connections.
