1.7 Safety Precautions

Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord

from your 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 experi enced electr onics personne l should open the PC chassis.

Caution! Always ground yourself t o remove any static

charge before touchin g the mo th er boa rd . Mo dern electronic devices are ve ry se nsitive to static electric charges. As a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap at all times.

1.8 Jumper Settings

This section provides instructions on how to configure your motherboard by setting the jumpers. It also includes the motherboards's and your options for each jumper.

1.8.1 How to set jumpers

default settings

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

setting the jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge that closes an elec-

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, either pins 1 when setting jumpers.

1.8.3 Watchdog timer output (J4)

The DVMB-554E contains a watchdog timer that will reset the CPU or send a signal to PIRQE in the event the CPU stops processing. This feature means the DVMB-554E will recover from a software failure or an EMI problem. The J4 computer will do in the event the watchdog timer is tripped.

1.9 System Memory

The DVMB-554E has two sockets for 240-pin memory modules (SODIMMs). All these sockets use 1.8 V unbuffered double data synchronous DRAMs (DDR 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 2GB.

1.9.1 CPU FSB and memory speed

The DVMB-554E can accept DDR2 SDRAM memory chips without parity. Also note: The SDRAM, and DDR2 ECC (error checking and
