1.3 Safety Precautions
The following sections tell how to make each connection. In most cases,
you will simply need to connect a standard cable.
Warning! Always disconnect the power cord from your
chassis whenever you are working on it. Do not
connect while the power is on. A sudden rush of
power can damage sensitive electronic components. Only experienced electronics personnel
should open the chassis.
Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static
electric charge before touching UNO-2173A/AF.
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 staticshielded bag.

A.10 Clear CMOS (CN3)
This jumper is used to erase CMOS data and reset system BIOS information. Follow the procedures below to clear the CMOS.
1. Turn off the system.
2. Close jumper CN3 (1-2) to clear CMOS .
3, Remove jumper CN3(1-2)
3. Turn on the system. The CMOS is now cleared.
4. Turn on the system. The BIOS is reset to its default setting.
