This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reason­able protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour­aged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician for help.

About this Manual

Static Electricity Precautions

An electronic file of this manual is included in the CD. To view the user’s manual in the CD, insert the CD into a CD-ROM drive. The autorun screen (Main Board Utility CD) will appear. Click “User’s Manual” on the main menu.

Warranty

1. Warranty does not cover damages or failures that arised from misuse of the product, inability to use the product, unauthorized replacement or alteration of components and product specifications.
2. The warranty is void if the product has been subjected to physical abuse, improper instal­lation, modification, accidents or unauthorized repair of the product.
3. Unless otherwise instructed in this user’s manual, the user may not, under any circum­stances, attempt to perform service, adjustments or repairs on the product, whether in or out of warranty. It must be returned to the purchase point, factory or authorized service agency for all such work.
4. We will not be liable for any indirect, special, incidental or consequencial damages to the product that has been modified or altered.
It is quite easy to inadvertently damage your PC, system board, components or devices even before installing them in your system unit. Static electrical discharge can damage computer components without causing any signs of physical damage. You must take extra care in han­dling them to ensure against electrostatic build-up.
1. To prevent electrostatic build-up, leave the system board in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install it.
2. Wear an antistatic wrist strap.
3. Do all preparation work on a static-free surface.
4. Hold the device only by its edges. Be careful not to touch any of the components, contacts or connections.
5. Avoid touching the pins or contacts on all modules and connectors. Hold modules or con­nectors by their ends.
Important:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drive and other com­ponents. Perform the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD worksta­tion only. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the system chas­sis. If a wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain contact with the system chassis throughout any procedures requiring ESD protection.

Safety Measures

To avoid damage to the system:
• Use the correct AC input voltage range.
To reduce the risk of electric shock:
• Unplug the power cord before removing the system chassis cover for installation or servic­ing. After installation or servicing, cover the system chassis before plugging the power cord.

• Jumper Setting
JP1 (for USB 0-1), JP2 (for USB 2-3) and JP23 (for USB 4-5) must be set to “2-3 On: +5V_ standby”. Refer to “USB Power Select” in this chapter for more information.
Important:
If you are using the Wake-On-USB Keyboard/Mouse function for 2 USB ports, the +5V_standby power source of your power supply must support 1.5A. For 3 or more USB ports, the +5V_standby power source of your power supply must support ≥2A.

CAN-Bus
The CAN controller performs communication in accordance with the BOSCH CAN Protocol Ver­sion 2.0B Active1 (standard format and extended format). The bit rate can be programmed to a maximum of 1Mbit/s. To connect the CAN controller module to the CAN bus, it is necessary to add transceiver hardware.

These fan connectors are used to connect a cooling fan. The cooling fan will provide adequate airflow throughout the chassis to prevent overheating the system board components.
When communicating in a CAN network, individual message objects are configured. The mes­sage objects and the identifier masks for the receive filter for the received messages are stored in the message RAM.
Controller Area Network (CAN or CAN-bus) is a message based protocol designed specifically for automotive applications but now is also used in other areas such as industrial automation and medical equipment.

mSATA Port
The Mini PCIe socket is used to install a Mini PCIe card. Mini PCIe card is a small form factor PCI card with the same signal protocol, electrical definitions, and configuration definitions as the conventional PCI.
PCI Express x4 Slot
Install PCI Express cards such as network cards or other cards that comply to the PCI Express specifications into the PCI Express x4 slot.
SDIO Slot
This expansion port is used to insert a Secure Digital Input/Output (SDIO) or Multimedia Card (MMC) device. Aside from storing data files, an SDIO card is also capable of storing powerful software applications.

Note:
The Sleep and Lid functions are supported only when your operating system supports ACPI.
• Lid: it is used to turn the LVDS on or off.
• Sleep: it is used to set the system to “sleep” or “wake-up” mode.
Thermal Trip LED
This LED will light to indicate that the processor is on an overheating status.
Low Power State LED
This LED will light red when the system is in the standby mode. It indicates that the system will be entering a low power state soon.
