Chapter 1. Introduction
1.1 Product Overview
The FS-978 SBC (Single Board Computer) is an all-in-one industrial full -size
PICMG (PCI/ISA)-bus CPU card based on Intel Socket 478 Pentium 4
architecture. With Intel 865G chipset, Intel 865G GMCH and ICH5, FS-978
offers the value computing solution including Intel NetBurst micro-architecture,
800/533/400 MHz of FSB, 2 GB DDR SDRAM, Intel Extreme Graphics 2 with
Intel Dynamic Video Memory up to 64 MBytes, One Intel PRO/100+ LAN and
one PRO/1000+ LAN, Hi-Speed USB 2.0 and Compact Flash Type II
interfaces.
Based on the Intel's long term supply chipset in the EIA (Embedded Intel
Architecture) division’s product roadmap, FS-978 shou ld be the ideal solution
for the industrial applied computing platform with high computing capacity,
cost effect and long life cycle. With Intel’s latest technology, the FS-978
should be the leading edge of comput ing capacity for the a dvanced indust rial
computing platform with the features as below.
Intel Hyper-Threading Technology
The FS-978 supports Intel Hyper-Threading Technology to offer the better
computing capacity for the industrial applied computing a ppl ication. Based on
Intel's latest technology, "the Intel Pentium 4 Processor with Hyper-Threading
technology allows software programs to "see" two processo rs and work more
efficiently. Improves performance and system responsiveness in today's
multitasking environments by enabling the processor to execute instruction
threads in parallel."
Powerful Computing Capacity
With Intel’s latest CPU technology, FS-978 supports Intel Socket 478 Pentium
4 CPU up to 3.2 GHz at 800 MHz of FSB and low cost Intel Socket 478
Celeron CPU from 2.0 GHz up to 2.4 GHz at 400 MHz of F SB. The FS-978
also provides two GBytes of DDR266/333/400 of system memory capacity.
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Interface: Intel ICH5 built-in Hi-Speed USB 2.0 controller
offers the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interface with up to 480 Mbps of data transfer
bandwidth with the USB bootable setting in the BIOS.

Chapter 3. BIOS Setup
The single board computer uses the Award BIOS for the system configuration.
The Award BIOS in the single board computer is a customized version of the
industrial standard BIOS for IBM PC AT-compatible computers. It supports
Intel x86 and compatible CPU architecture based pr ocessors and com puters.
The BIOS provides critical low-level support for the system central processing,
memory and I/O sub-systems.
The BIOS setup program of the single board computer let the customers
modify the basic configuration setting. The settings are stored in a dedicated
battery-backed memory, NVRAM, retains the information when the po wer is
turned off. If the battery runs out of the power, then the settings of BIOS will
come back to the default setting.
The BIOS section of the manual is subject to change without notice and is
provided here for reference purpose only. The settin gs and configurations of
the BIOS are current at the time of print, and therefore they may not be
exactly the same as that displayed on your screen.
To activate CMOS Setup program, press ＜DEL＞ key immediately after you
turn on the system. The following message “Press DEL to enter SETUP”
should appear in the lower left hand corner of your screen. When you enter
the CMOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu will be displaye d as Figure 3-1. You
can use arrow keys to select your function, press ＜Enter＞ key to accept
the selection and enter the sub-menu.
