1. Getting Started

1.1 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 experienced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis.

Caution!

Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the CPU card. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. As a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components in a static-dissipative surface or static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis.

1.2 Packing List

Before you begin installing your single board, please make sure that the following materials have been shipped:

 1 x ESM-BYT COMe Module  1 x DVD-ROM contains the followings:

— User’s Manual (this manual in PDF file) — Ethernet driver and utilities — VGA drivers and utilities — Audio drivers and utilities

 5 x Fixing screws  1 x Desiccant (5g)

1.4 Manual Objectives

This manual describes in details Avalue Technology ESM-BYT Single Board.

We have tried to include as much information as possible but we have not duplicated information that is provided in the standard IBM Technical References, unless it proved to be necessary to aid in the understanding of this board.

We strongly recommend that you study this manual carefully before attempting to set up ESM-BYT series or change the standard configurations. Whilst all the necessary information is available in this manual we would recommend that unless you are confident, you contact your supplier for guidance.

Please be aware that it is possible to create configurations within the NVRAM that make booting impossible. If this should happen, clear the NVRAM settings, (see the description of the Jumper Settings for details).

If you have any suggestions or find any errors regarding this manual and want to inform us of these, please contact our Customer Service department with the relevant details.

2.2 Installation Procedure

This chapter explains you the instructions of how to setup your system.

1. Turn off the power supply.

2. Insert the DIMM module (be careful with the orientation).

3. Insert all external cables for hard disk, keyboard, mouse, USB etc. except for flat panel. A CRT monitor must be connected in order to change NVRAM settings to support flat panel.

4. Connect power supply to the board via the ATXPWR.

5. Turn on the power.

6. Enter the BIOS setup by pressing the delete key during boot up. Use the "Save & Exit \ Restore Defaults" feature.

7. If TFT panel display is to be utilized, make sure the panel voltage is correctly set before connecting the display cable and turning on the power.

SODIMM

2.2.1 Main Memory

ESM-BYT provides two 204 -pin SODIMM socket, supports up to 8GB DDR3L 1066/1333 SDRAM, DIMM1 must be inserted when only a single memory is used.

Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to board and components.

Ejector

204-pin DDR3L SODIMM

 Locate the SODIMM socket on the board.  Carefully hold two edges of the SODIMM module. avoid touching its connectors.  Align the notch key on the module with the rib on the slot.  Firmly press the modules into the socket which automatically snaps into the mounting

notch. Do not force the SODIMM module in with extra force as the SODIMM module only fits in one direction.

 To remove SODIMM modules, simultaneously push the two ejector tabs outward,

then pull out the SODIMM module.

Note:

(1) Please do not change any DDR3L SDRAM parameter in BIOS setup to increase

your system’s performance without acquiring technical information in advance.

(2) Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or

optional boards. Before proceeding, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by briefly touching a grounded metal object.

2.3 Connector List

You can configure your board 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 two pins.

The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows:

A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. Connectors on the board are linked to external devices such as hard disk drives, a keyboard, or floppy drives. In addition, the board has a number of jumpers that allow you to configure your system to suit your application. If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your application, contact your local distributor or sales representative before you make any changes.

The following tables list the function of each of the board’s jumpers and connectors.
