1. Introduction
About the Product

This product is a fanless computer for embedded applications. It features an Intel Atom processor E3845
chipset. Thanks to a quad-core CPU, simultaneous stable high-speed processing for four applications is
possible with four cores. This CPU also allows for computing power almost four times that of
conventional products in addition to three times the graphics performance, a significant improvement.
Moreover, power consumption has been significantly reduced, resulting in nearly double the power
efficiency compared w it h t he previous ge neration's architecture.It combines sufficient performance and
low power consumption in a space-saving de s ign that can be ins talled in spaces only 50-mm thick with
roughly the same area as a paperback book. This "resource-saving PC" helps you design more compact,
energy efficient equipment to reduce running costs and promote energy efficiency.

It has extension interfaces such as DVI-I, Display Port, 1000BASE-T, USB 3.0, and serial. It employs a
CFast card for storage and is fanless to ensure a totally spindleless design that simplifi es maintenance.

In addition, this product is equipped with a proprietary extended RAS*1 function independent of the main
computer functions. This feature provides various functions to increase system reliability by
automatically restarting the system when detecting errors such as frozen programs, operating system
startup faults, and a rise in internal temperature, and by saving detailed logs of the occurrence of errors,
which can be useful in failure analysis.

Embedded-type CPU have been adopted. The use of readily ava ilable parts ensures the ease o f the use of
the product . In addition, the use of Contec-customized BIOS allows support to be provided at the BIOS
level.

This product is av a ilable in the f ol l owing 5 models:

- Base model with Intel Atom Processor E3845 1.91GHz
BX-220D-DC700000 (Memory 4GB, ECC, without OS, withou t CFast)

- OS-installed mod el wit h Intel Atom Processor E3845 1.91GHz
BX-220D-DC731211 (Memory 4GB, ECC, Windows Embedded Standard 7 32bit (Japanese version),

- Contributing to redu ction of running cost and promotion of energy efficiency
It adopts the low-power platform with Intel
consumption while ensuring sufficient performance.

- Contributing to c omp ac t device design. Ultra-small PC is roughly the same area as a paperback book
It is the smallest [178 (W) x 115 (D) x 29 (H)] and lightest [800 g] PC in the series, and can be installed
almost anywh ere.

Can be installed in spaces only 50-mm thick with roughly the same area as a paperback book. It largely
serves downsizing of your equipment, fits any area with the aestheticness kept.

- Slitless/fanless design that reduces maintenance work
This product's spindleless design eliminates the heat dissipating slit and CPU fan and adopts CFast card
for the storage. There is no need to worry about the intrusion of dust or foreign objects , and the use of
parts that degrade over time is minimized to facilitate maintenance.

- Remote power managemen t function to reduce operation tasks
Supports system startup by external device over network (Wake-on-LAN), by general purpose input
(power on by GPI), and by modem reception (power on by ring). It encourages significant labor saving in
operation.

- Major types of peripherals are supported with rich interfaces including the two CFast card slots
It has a variety of extended i nterface such as DVI-I x 1, Display Port x 1, 1000BASE-T x 2, USB3.0 x 1,
serial (RS-232C) x 2.
It has two CFast card slots (one built into main unit), providing the ability to separate data from the
operating system, as well as the convenience of being able to use one slot for system star tup and the oth er
for maintenance or for taking home system logs or collected data.

- Built-in monitoring function for improved reliability of industrial equipment
The built-in sub-CPU for monitoring offers the ability to save failure logs documenting such information
as start-up failures, abnormal temperatures, abnormal OS operation, and reco r ding media swapped while
powered up, as well as the ability to restart the OS or the device. Recording the power-on time and the
operation time allows for proactive predictions of malfunctions due to parts having reached thei r service
life. This ability makes it possible to construct stable and highly reliable industrial systems.

- Falling-off prevention tools and fixing clamps pr ovided to avoid trouble caused by disconnected cable
This product stays trouble-free, being equipped with USB removal prevention fitting and cable clam p for
connectors with no loc king mechanism, such as USB cable, and with hardware to properly mount and
avoid falling out of CFast card.

4. BIOS Setup

4. BIOS Setup

Introduction

This chapter d iscusses American Megatrends’s (AMI) Setup program built into the FLASH ROM BIOS.
The Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This special information is
then stored in FLASH ROM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off.

The rest of this chapter is intended to guide you through the process of configuring your system using
Setup.

Starting Setup

The AMI BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The BIOS reads the
system information contained in the FLASH ROM and begins the process of checking out the system and
configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then
launch and turn control over to the operating system.

While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways:
1 By pressing <Del> or <ESC> immediately after switching the system on, or
2 By pressin g the <Del> or <ESC> key when the following message appears briefly at the bottom of

the screen during the POST (Power On Self-Test).

Press <DEL> ot <ESC> to enter SETUP.

If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system to try
again by turning it OFF then ON on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing
<Ctrl>, < Alt>, and <Delete> keys.

Using Setup

In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter> to select, us e t he PageUp and
PageDown keys to change entries, press <F1> for help and press <Esc> to quit. The following table
provides more detail about how to navigate in the Setup program using the keyboard.

Getting Help

Press F1 to pop up a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and the possible
selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window press <Esc> or the F1 key again.

In Case of Problems

If you cannot boot the com puter after using Setup to change and save system settings, the computer will
have to be repaired. It is safest not to change system settings you do not fully understand. Therefore, it is
strongly recommended that you do not change any of the default settings for the chipset. These defaults
have been selected with sufficient consideration by the AMI and system manufacturers to ensure
maximum performance an d r eliability. Even changing the chipset settings slightly can result in an
unavoidable need for repairs.

If the OS is booted without connecting the display cable to the DVI interface, and then the display is

­connected after the OS boots, the display may not be shown properly.

- When the anal o g display is used, Windows MS-DOS may not be properly displayed in full-screen
mode.
This is because the frequency and resolution of Windows and MS-DOS (full-screen displa y) are the
same due to the screen settings while the display parameters are different.
For display, as only one parameter can be stored for one frequency or resolution, only either of
Windows or MS-DOS screen can be displayed properly.
In this case, change the resolution or display frequency of Windows so that it is not the same as for
the MS-DOS display.

- When using a digital display, an analog display may be detected even though no analog display is
connected.

- This will not affect how the digital display appears. However, change the multi-display se tting s as
necessary.

- To change the settings from digital output to analog output, change the settings from the standard
Windows properties screen.

A baud rate is set by software by dividing the clock input (1.8432MHz). The baud rate in terms of

hardware can be set to a maximum of 115,200 bps for SERIALA, B. The bau d rates availab l e in practice
depend on the operating environment (cable, software, etc.). The table below lists typical baud rates and
their respective values to be written to the divisor latch register (LSB, MSB).

Yes

If [WDT Stop] is not performed within the limit time set up
by [WDT Start], system reset occurs.

When performing the re-start of WDT, it repeats [WDT Start] and [WDT Stop].

Watch-Dog-Timer

The watchdog timer serves as a safeguard against possible system lock-up in your industrial computer
system. In most industrial environments, there are heavy equipment, generators, high-voltage power lines,
or power drops that have adverse effects on your computer system. For instance, when a power drop
occurs, it could cause the CPU to come to a halt state or enter into an infinite loop, resulting in a system
lock-up.

The applic ation software c reated by user with the watchdog timer enabled, a RESET automatically
generated unless the software periodically triggers the timer within the setting time-out interval. That is,
while the system gets hung up, the running program can’t trigger th e timer periodically. The timer will
generate a reset signal to reboot the system.

With this function, running programs can be resta rted in the usual way even if an abnorm al state occurs.
The software can be configured using 255 levels (1 to 255 seconds) of timeout intervals for the watchdog

timer. There is also a 2-second tolerance for timeout intervals. To mai ntain normal system operation,
trigger the watchdog timer again using a user-written progra m w ith th e tolerance in mind.

Ex.) If the time-out interval is set to 30 seconds, the us er-created program must retrigger the watchdog

timer before 28 seconds will have elapsed in consideration of the tolerance. If the program failed to
retrigger the timer (if 28 - 32 seconds have elapsed), the system will automatically reboot.

The I/O por t is de fined at addre s s 2e/2fH. You can trigger/enable disable the timer by writing address
2e/2fH.

Here is an example for flow chart and programming how to use t he watch-dog-timer.

* It is also possible not to perform [WDT Stop] instead of performing [WDT Stop] to [WDT Start], but to perform [WDT

Start] continuously at the time of a re-start.
