Safety Precautions

Before getting started, please read the following important safety precautions.

1. The eBOX622-830-FL does not come equipped with an operating system. An operating
system must be loaded first before installing any software into the computer.

2. Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when installing the internal
components. Use a grounding wrist strap and place all electronic components in any
static-shielded devices. Most electronic components are sensitive to static electrical
charge.

3. Disconnect the power cord from the eBOX622-830-FL before making any installation. Be
sure both the system and the external devices are turned OFF. Sudden surge of power
could ruin sensitive components. Make sure the eBOX622-830-FL is properly grounded.

4. Make sure the voltage of the power source is correct before connecting the equipment to
the power outlet.

5. Turn OFF the system power before cleaning. Clean the system using a cloth only. Do not
spray any liquid cleaner directly onto the screen.

6. Do not leave this equipment in an uncontrolled environment where the storage
temperature is below -20℃ or above 80℃. It may damage the equipment.

7. Do not open the system’s back cover. If opening the cover for maintenance is a must,
only a trained technician is allowed to do so. Integrated circuits on computer boards are
sensitive to static electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge,
observe the following precautions:

 Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the

system unit chassis for a few seconds. This will help to discharge any static electricity
on your body.

 When handling boards and components, wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from

most electronic component stores.

General Cleaning Tips

You may need the following precautions before you begin to clean the computer. When you
clean any single part or component for the computer, please read and understand the details
below fully.

When you need to clean the device, please rub it with a piece of dry cloth.

1. Be cautious of the tiny removable components when you use a vacuum cleaner to
absorb the dirt on the floor.

2. Turn the system off before you start to clean up the component or computer.

3. Never drop the components inside the computer or get circuit board damp or wet.

4. Be cautious of all kinds of cleaning solvents or chemicals when you use it for the sake of

cleaning. Some individuals may be allergic to the ingredients.

5. Try not to put any food, drink or cigarette around the computer.

Cleaning Tools:

Although many companies have created products to help improve the process of cleaning
your computer and peripherals users can also use household items to clean their computers
and peripherals. Below is a listing of items you may need or want to use while cleaning your
computer or computer peripherals.

Keep in mind that some components in your computer may only be able to be cleaned using a
product designed for cleaning that component, if this is the case it will be mentioned in the
cleaning.

 Cloth: A piece of cloth is the best tool to use when rubbing up a component. Although

paper towels or tissues can be used on most hardware as well, we still recommend you
to rub it with a piece of cloth.

 Water or rubbing alcohol: You may moisten a piece of cloth a bit with some water or

rubbing alcohol and rub it on the computer. Unknown solvents may be harmful to the
plastics parts.

 Vacuum cleaner: Absorb the dust, dirt, hair, cigarette particles, and other particles out of

a computer can be one of the best methods of cleaning a computer. Over time these
items can restrict the airflow in a computer and cause circuitry to corrode.

 Cotton swabs: Cotton swaps moistened with rubbing alcohol or water are excellent tools

for wiping hard to reach areas in your keyboard, mouse, and other locations.

 Foam swabs: Whenever possible it is better to use lint free swabs such as foam swabs.

Note We strongly recommended that you should shut down the system before you start

to clean any single components.

Please follow the steps below:

1. Close all application programs

2. Close operating software

3. Turn off power switch

4. Remove all device

5. Pull out power cable

vi

Scrap Computer Recycling

If the computer equipment’s needs the maintenance or are beyond repair, we strongly
recommended that you should inform your Axiomtek distributor as soon as possible for the
suitable solution. For the computers that are no longer useful or no longer working well, please
contact your Axiomtek distributor for recycling and we will make the proper arrangement.

eBOX622-830-FL support dual PCI Express Mini Card slots. Those two slots support
a PCI Express x1 link and a USB 2.0 link. The PCI Express Mini Card slots can be
applied to either PCI Express or USB 2.0, and compile with PCI-Express Mini Card
Spec. V1.2.

The USB 2.0 support will be helpful during the transition to PCI Express, because
peripheral vendors will need time to design their chipsets to have the PCI Express
function. During the transition, PCI Express Mini Cards can be quickly implemented
by using USB 2.0.

Appendix A

Watchdog Timer

About Watchdog Timer

Software stability is major issue in most application. Some embedded systems are not
watched by human for 24 hours. It is usually too slow to wait for someone to reboot when
computer hangs. The systems need to be able to reset automatically when things go wrong.
The watchdog timer gives us solution.

The watchdog timer is a counter that triggers a system reset when it counts down to zero from
a preset value. The software starts counter with an initial value and must reset it periodically. If
the counter ever reaches zero which means the software has crashed, the system will reboot.

How to Use Watchdog Timer

The I/O port base addresses of watchdog timer are 2E (hex) and 2F (hex). The 2E (hex) and
2F (hex) are address and data port respectively.

Assume that program A is put in a loop that must execute at least once every 10ms. Initialize
watchdog timer with a value bigger than 10ms. If the software has no problems; watchdog
timer will never expire because software will always restart the counter before it reaches zero.
