1.1 Introduction
The GENE-QM87 supports Intel® 4th Generation Core™ i Series
processors which when paired with the Intel® QM87 chipset
offers a high performance computing platform with low power
consumption. This new product supports 204-pin DDR3L
SODIMM at speeds of 1333/1600 MHz, up to 8 GB.
One CFast™ and two SATA 6.0Gb/s (Optional RAID) interfaces
provide ample storages. With dual Gigabit Ethernet, four COM
ports, two USB3.0 and six USB2.0, the GENE-QM87 meets the
requirements of today’s demanding applications.
Display requirements are met with an abundance of interfaces
such as CRT, HDMI, DVI-I and LCD. The graphic engine
adopts Intel® QM87 to offer high definition display function. In
addition, it supports up to triple view for two 24-bit Dual-Channel
LVDS, one HDMI, one DVI and one CRT.
With all of its integrated features, the GENE-QM87 strikes a
balance of performance and price. This versatile product targets
Industrial Automation, Entertainment, KIOSK/POS,
Transportation, Banking, and Digital Signage.

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 Clos ed 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.
