Industrial Motherboard
I M B A - Q 7 7
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.
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.

Industrial Motherboard
I M B A - Q 7 7
3.1 System Test and Iinitialization
These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines
encounter an error during the tests, you will either hear a few short
beeps or see an error message on the screen. There are two kinds
of errors: fatal and non-fatal. The system can usually continue the
boot up sequence with non-fatal errors.
System configuration verification
These routines check the current system configuration stored in the
CMOS memory and BIOS NVRAM. If system configuration is not
found or system configuration data error is detected, system will
load optimized default and re-boot with this default system
configuration automatically.
There are four situations in which you will need to setup system
configuration:
1. You are starting your system for the first time
2. You have changed the hardware attached to your system
3. The system configuration is reset by Clear-CMOS jumper
4. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration
information has been erased.
The IMBA-Q77 CMOS memory has an integral lithium battery
backup for data retention. However, you will need to replace the
complete unit when it finally runs down.
Chapter 3 AMI BIOS Setup 3-2
Industrial Motherboard
IMBA- Q 7 7
3.2 AMI BIOS Setup
AMI BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to
modify the basic system configuration. This type of information is
stored in battery-backed CMOS RAM and BIOS NVRAM so that it
retains the Setup information when the power is turned off.
Entering Setup
Power on the computer and press <Del>or <F2> immediately. This
will allow you to enter Setup.
Main
Set the date, use tab to switch between date elements.
Advanced
Enable disable boot option for legacy network devices.
Chipset
Host bridge parameters.
Boot
Enables/disable quiet boot option.
Security
Set setup administrator password.
Save & Exit
Exit system setup after saving the changes.
