meet various operating requirements. It is divided into five chapters, with each
chapter addressing a basic concept and operation of Single Host Board.

Chapter 1:System Overview. Presents what you have in the box and give you an
overview of the product specifications and basic system architecture for this series
model of single host board.

Chapter 2: Hardware Configuration. Show the definitions and locations of Jumpers
and Connectors that you can easily configure your system.

Chapter 3: System Installation.Describes how to properly mount the CPU, main
memory and Compact Flash to get a safe installation and provides a programming
guide of Watch Dog Timer function.

Chapter 4: BIOS Setup Information.Specifies the meaning of each setup
parameters, how to get advanced BIOS performance and update new BIOS. In
addition, POST checkpoint list will give users some guidelines of trouble-shooting.

Chapter 5: Troubleshooting.Provide various of useful tips to quickly get GMB­C2165-LLVA running with success. As basic hardware installation has been
addressed in Chapter 3, this chapter will basically focus on system integration
issues, in terms of backplane setup, BIOS setting, and OS diagnostics.

The content of this manual is subject to change without prior notice. These changes
will be incorporated in new editions of the document. The vendormay make
supplement or change in the products described in this document at any time

1. System Overview

1.1. Introduction

Powell Inc., a world-leading innovator in the Industrial PC (IPC) market and a
member of the Intel® Communications Alliance, has launched its new GMB-C2165­LLVA in response to market demand for a simplified embedded system board (ESB)
that combines a smaller footprint, lower power consumption, robust computing
power and with longevity support.

Against the pre-generation chipset GMB-C2165-LLVA based on C216 chipset, C216
offers Core i3/Xeon processors, VGA, DVI-D, Display port, USB 3.0 and SATA III

2. Hardware Configuration

This chapter gives the definitions and shows the positions of jumpers, headers and
connectors. All of the configuration jumpers on GMB-C2165-LLVA are in the proper
position. The default settings shipped from factory are marked with an asterisk (★).

2.1 Jumper Setting

In general, jumpers on the single board computer are used to select options for certain
features. Some of the jumpers are designed to be user-configurable, allowing for system
enhancement. The others are for testing purpose only and should not be altered. To select
any option, cover the jumper cap over (SHORT) or remove (NC) it from the jumper pins
according to the following instructions. Here NC stands for “Not Connect”.
