1.3Safety Precautions
Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and the
products from damage.
1. To avoid electrical shock, always disconnect the power from your
PC chassis before you work on it. Don't touch any components on
the CPU card or other cards while the PC is on.
2. Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. The
sudden rush of power as you connect a jumper or install a card
may damage sensitive electronic components.
3. Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before you
touch your CPU card. Be particularly careful not to touch the chip
connectors. Modern integrated electronic devices, especially
CPUs and memory chips, are extremely sensitive to static electrical discharges and fields. Keep the card in its antistatic packaging
when it is not installed in the PC, and place it on a static dissipative mat when you are working with it. Wear a grounding wrist
strap for continuous protection.

1.6.2 Jumper Settings
This section tells how to set the jumpers to configure your card. It
gives the card default configuration and your options for each jumper.
After you set the jumpers and install the card, you will also need to
run the BIOS Setup program (discussed in Chapter 6) to configure the
serial port addresses, floppy/hard disk drive types and system
operating parameters. Connections, such as hard disk cables, appear
in Chapter 2.
For the locations of each jumper, see the board layout diagram
depicted earlier in this chapter.
You configure your card to match the needs of your application by
setting jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge that closes an electrical
circuit. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal cap (often
protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them.
To "close" a jumper you connect the pins with the cap. To "open" a
jumper you remove the cap. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins,
labeled 1, 2 and 3. In this case you connect either pins 1 and 2 or 2
and 3.

1.9Installing SDRAM (DIMMs)
The MIC-3365 provides two 168-pin DIMM sockets. Each socket
accepts either 16, 32, 64, 128 or 256 MB SDRAM. The sockets can
be filled in any combination with DIMMs of any size, giving a total
memory capacity between 16 and 512 MB.
Since the MIC-3365 can operate at 66 or 100 MHz, we recommend
using PC100-compliant DIMMs.
The procedure for installing DIMMs appears below. Please follow
these steps carefully.
1. Ensure that all power supplies to the system are switched Off.
2. Install the DIMM modules. Install the DIMM so that its gold pins
point down into the DIMM socket.
3. Slip the DIMM into the socket and carefully fit the bottom of the
card against the connectors.
4. Gently push the DIMM into the socket, until the clips on the ends
of the DIMM sockets snap into place.
5. Check to ensure that the DIMM is correctly seated and all connector contacts touch. The DIMM should not move around in its
socket.
Note:The DIMM modules can only fit into sockets one way ,
in accordance with the keyed notches along the
bottom edge of the modules. Their gold pins must
point down into the DIMM socket.

3.1Introduction
The MIC-3365 has two on-board high-performance fast Ethernet
interfaces which comply with IEEE 802.3/802.3u for 10Base-T and 100
Base-TX data rates.
The module uses two Intel® 82559 fast Ethernet controllers with
integrated PHY and is compatible with the Intel® PRO/100+ Server and
Client Adapter. The dual Ethernet channel design provides several
options for increasing throughput and fault tolerance when running
Windows NT 4.0 or NetWare 4.1x and newer versions of these,
includes:
•Adapter Fault Tolerance (AFT) - provides automatic redundancy for
your Ethernet channel. If the primary channel fails, the secondary
takes over.
• Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB) - creates a team of 2 channels to
increase transmission throughput. Also includes AFT and ALB.
This function works with any 100BASE-TX switch.
• Fast EtherChannel (FEC) - creates a team of 2 to 4 channels to
increase transmission and reception throughput. Also includes AFT.
This function requires a Cisco switch with FEC capability.
The MIC-3365 comes with drivers for a wide variety of networks and
operating systems. The MIC-3365 is an excellent choice for operation
in standalone and harsh industrial environments.

Award BIOS Setup
6.1Introduction
A ward's 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 so that it retains the Setup information
when the power is turned off.
6.2Entering Setup
Turn on the computer and check for the "patch code". If there is a
number assigned to the patch code, it means that the BIOS supports
your CPU.
If there is no number assigned to the patch code, please contact
Advantech's application engineer to obtain an up-to-date patch code
file. This will ensure that your CPU's system status is valid.
After ensuring that you have a number assigned to the patch code,
press <DEL> and you will immediately be allowed to enter Setup.
