ESD Precautions
Computer boards have integrated circuits sensitive to static electricity. To prevent chipsets
from electrostatic discharge damage, please take care of the following jobs with precautions:
Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging until you are
ready to install them.
Before holding the board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system
unit chassis for a few seconds. It discharges static electricity from your body.
Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component stores, when
handling boards and components.

2.3 Jumper Settings
Jumper is a small component consisting of jumper clip and jumper pins. Install jumper clip on 2
jumper pins to close. And remove jumper clip from 2 jumper pins to open. The following
illustration shows how to set up jumper.
Before applying power to MANO310 Series, please make sure all of the jumpers are in factory
default position. Below you can find a summary table of all jumpers and onboard default
settings.
Note
Once the default jumper setting needs to be changed, please do it under power-off
condition.

2.3.1 Clear CMOS (JP1)
This jumper allows you to clear the Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM in CMOS. You can
clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and system setup parameters by erasing the
CMOS RTC RAM data. The onboard button cell battery powers the RAM data in CMOS,
which includes system setup information such as system passwords.
To erase the RTC RAM:
1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.
2. Remove the onboard battery.
3. Move the jumper clip from pins 1-2 (default) to pins 2-3. Keep the clip on pins 2-3
for about 5~10 seconds, then move the clip back to pins 1-2.
4. Re-install the battery.
5. Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.
6. Hold down the <Del> key during the boot process and enter BIOS setup to re-enter
data.
2.3.2 AT/ATX Power Mode Select (JP2)
This 3-pin (pitch=2.54mm) jumper allows you to select AT or ATX power mode.
2.3.3 COM1 RS-232/422/485 Mode Select (JP3, JP4, JP5)

Hardware Description
3.1 Microprocessors
The MANO310 supports Intel® Pentium® N4200/ Celeron® N3350 processors, which enable
your system to operate under Windows® 7, Windows® 8.1, Windows® 10 and Linux
environments. The system performance depends on the microprocessor. Make sure all correct
settings are arranged for your installed microprocessor to prevent the CPU from damages.
3.2 BIOS
The MANO310 uses AMI Plug and Play BIOS with a single SPI Flash.
3.3 System Memory
The MANO310 supports two 204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM sockets for maximum memory
capacity up to 8GB DDR3L SDRAMs. The memory module comes in sizes of 1GB, 2GB, 4GB
and 8GB.
Note
If only one memory module is used, please install in DIMM1 (the upper SO-DIMM
socket).

AMI BIOS Setup Utility
The AMI UEFI BIOS provides users with a built-in setup program to modify basic system
configuration. All configured parameters are stored in a flash chip to save the setup information
whenever the power is turned off. This chapter provides users with detailed description about
how to set up basic system configuration through the AMI BIOS setup utility.
4.1 Starting
To enter the setup screens, follow the steps below:
1. Turn on the computer and press <Del> during the Power On Self Test (POST) to enter
BIOS setup, otherwise, POST will continue with its test routines.
2. Once you enter the BIOS, the main BIOS setup menu displays. You can access the other
setup screens from the main BIOS setup menu, such as the Advanced and Chipset
menus.
Note
If your computer cannot boot after making and saving system changes with BIOS
setup, you can restore BIOS optimal defaults by setting JP1 (see section 2.3.1).
It is strongly recommended that you should avoid changing the chipset’s defaults. Both AMI
and your system manufacturer have carefully set up these defaults that provide the best
performance and reliability.
4.2 Navigation Keys
The BIOS setup/utility uses a key-based navigation system called hot keys. Most of the BIOS
setup utility hot keys can be used at any time during the setup navigation process. These keys
include <F1>, <F2>, <Enter>, <ESC>, <Arrow> keys, and so on.
Note
Some of the navigation keys differ from one screen to another.

- Full On: The fan always runs at full speed.
- Automatic Mode: The following option selections appear only in Automatic Mode. The
initial spinning speed of fan is determined according to start PWM value. The PWM
Slope is used to control how fast the fan speeds up or slows down; larger value means
faster. When temperature gets higher, the fan increases its speed according to PWM
Slope.

Watchdog Timer 53
Appendix A
Watchdog Timer
A.1 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.
A.2 Watchdog Timer Programming
1. Enter ADU, and press <F4> to select the superior ITE
2. PORT setting 002E, 002F
3. Address 07h, set 07 GPIO
4. Address 72h, set countdown, for example Sec: C0, Min: 40
5. Address 73h, set countdown time, for example 10sec: 0A

Digital I/O 55
Appendix B
Digital I/O
B.1 About Digital I/O
The onboard GPIO or digital I/O has 16 bits (DIO1~16). Each bit can be set to function as input
or output by software programming. In default, all pins are pulled high with +5V level
(according to main power). The BIOS default settings for CN12/CN13 are 4 inputs and 4
outputs where all of these pins are set to 1.
B.2 Digital I/O Programming
Change boot mode to legacy mode, enter to DOS environment and execute debug.exe to
enter debug mode. Then do the following steps under debug mode:
For CN12, the I/O space=a06h.
1. “o a06 FF” set all 8 pins to output high.
2. “o a06 00” set all 8 pins to output low.
3. “i a06” check I/O status. ‘1’ represents high status, ‘0’ represents low status.
For CN13, the I/O space=a07h.
1. “o a07 FF” set all 8 pins to output high.
2. “o a07 00” set all 8 pins to output low.
3. “i a07” check I/O status. ‘1’ represents high status, ‘0’ represents low status.
