1.1 Introduction

AAEON, a leading embedded boards manufacturer, is pleased to announce the debut of their new generation 3.5” SubCompact Board—GENE-QM57. The GENE-QM57 is a cutting-edge product that provides high performance and low power consumption in the embedded market.

GENE-QM57 adopts the latest Intel

Core™ i7/i5 Mobile/ Celeron® (32nm) processor. The system memory deploys with 204-pin DDR3 SODIMM up to 4 GB. In addition, Intel

82574L & 82577LM supports two 10/100/100Base-TX that allow faster network connections. One Mini Card, two SATA 3.0Gb/s and one CFast™ are configured on the GENE-QM57. Moreover, GENE-QM57 also equips eight USB2.0, two COM, one keyboard and one mouse ports for flexible I/O expansions.

The display of GENE-QM57 supports CRT/LCD, DVI/LCD simultaneous/ dual view displays and up to 24-bit dual channel LVDS. This brand new SubCompact board is developed to cater to the requirements of Automation, Medical, ticket machine, transportation, gaming, KIOSK, and POS/POI applications.

2.1 Safety Precautions

Always completely disconnect the power cord from your board whenever you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on, because a sudden rush of power can damage sensitive electronic components.

Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the board. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. 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

2.6 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.

Open Closed Closed 2 -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.
