Hardware Preparation and Installation
Figure 2-1 shows the thermal management diagram.
Figure 2-1Board Thermal Management
Two PNP thermal transistors are integrated in Pineview-D processor. It is used as a diode and
connects to an external digital thermal sensor EMC2103. CPU receives the data of junction
temperature through SMBus. Note that, this is an inaccurate value and the temperature offset
must be taken into account by reading MSR of CPU.
When the CPU junction temperature is more than 125C, CPU asserts the THERMTRIP# signal,
and then stops all bus activities, and the core power must be shut down in the specified time.

MITX-430/MITX-440-DVI-2E Installation and Use Guide (6806800K37B)
71
Functional Description
The RTC also supports two lockable memory ranges. By setting bits in the configuration space,
two 8-byte ranges can be locked to read and write accesses. This prevents unauthorized
reading of passwords or other system security information.
The RTC also supports a data alarm that allows for scheduling a wakeup event up to 30 days in
advance, rather than just 24 hours in advance.

MITX-430/MITX-440-DVI-2E Installation and Use Guide (6806800K37B)
Operation
5.1POST
After power up or reset, the BIOS performs a self-test, POST, that attempts to determine if
further operation is possible and that the detected configuration is expected. This process
either completes normally or results in a warning or an error. The boot process does not stop
after a warning but displays a message on the primary display device.
To view all checkpoints generated by Aptio firmware, you require a checkpoint card, also
referred to as a POST Card or POST Diagnostic Card. These are LPC add-in cards that show the
value of I/O port 80h on a LED display.
5.2Boot Process
While performing the functions of the traditional BIOS, Aptio 4.x core follows the firmware
model described by the Intel Platform Innovation Framework for EFI. The framework refers to
the following boot phases, which applies to various status code descriptions:
zDriver Execution Environment (DXE) - main hardware initialization2
zBoot Device Selection (BDS) - system setup, pre-OS user interface and selecting a bootable
device (CD/DVD, HDD, USB, Network, Shell, and so on)
5.3Initiating Setup
During the boot, press the F2 key on the keyboard to launch the setup utility once the self-test
is complete and before searching for a boot device. If you exit setup without saving any
changes, the boot process continues with the search for a boot device. If changes are made,
the motherboard loads the new settings and resets, restarting the entire boot process.

5.4Setup Utility
The BIOS incorporates a setup utility that allows you to alter a variety of system options. This
section describes the operation of the utility by describing the various options available
through a set of hierarchical menus. Not all options are available with all products and some
depend on BIOS customizations.
The current settings are stored in the SPI FLASH NVRAM area and any changes can be copied
back to this area via the Exit menu.
To start the utility, press the F2 key during the early stages of POST after powerup. This
functionality operates with PS/2 keyboards, USB keyboards when enabled, and via the console
redirection facility when enabled.
Table 5-1 briefly describes the primary menus.
