Mounting SI-38 to the Wall
You can install SI-38 on plastic (LCD monitor), wood, drywall surface over studs, or
a solid concrete or metal plane directly. Ensure the installer uses at least four
M3-length 6mm screws to secure the system on wall. Six M3 length 6mm screws are recommended to secure the system on wall.
Fasteners are not included with the unit, and must be supplied by the installer. The
types of fasteners required are dependent on the type of wall construction. Choose
fasteners that are rated either ”Medium Duty“ or ”Heavy Duty.“ To assure proper
fastener selection and installation, follow the fastener manufacturer’s
recommendations.
11
Wall mounting requirements
Note: Before mounting the system on wall, ensure that you are following all
applicable building and electric codes.
When mounting, ensure that you have enough room for power and signal cable
routing. And have good ventilation for power adapter. The method of mounting must
be able to support weight of the SI-38 plus the suspend weight of all the cables to
be attached to the system. Use the following methods for mounting your system:
Mounting to hollow walls
Method 1: Wood surface – A minimum wood thickness – 38mm (1.5in.) by
25.4 cm (10in.) – of high, construction – grade wood is recommended.
Note: This method provides the most reliable attachment of the unit with
little risk that the unit will come loose or require ongoing maintenance.
Method 2: Drywall walls - Drywall over wood studs is acceptable.
Mounting to a solid concrete or brick wall - Mounts on a flat smooth surface.
Selecting the location
Plan the mounting location thoroughly. Locations such as walkway areas, hallways,
and crowded areas are not recommended. Mount the unit to a flat, sturdy,
structurally sound column or wall surface.
The best mounting surface is a standard countertop, cabinet, table, or other
structure that is minimally the width and length of the unit. This recommendation
reduces the risk that someone may accidentally walk into and damage the device.
Local laws governing the safety of individuals might require this type of
consideration.

Installation
Installing CPU
The SI-38 (IB938 board) supports PGA-722 socket for AMD R-Series 32nm QC/DC
APU. (The maximum TDP supported is 35W)
The processor socket comes with a screw to secure the processor. As shown in the
left picture below, loosen the screw first before inserting the processor. Place the
processor into the socket by making sure the notch on the corner of the CPU
corresponds with the notch on the inside of the socket. Once the processor has slid
into the socket, fasten the screw. Refer to the figures below.
15
Installing the memory
The IB938 board supports two DDR3 memory socket for a maximum total memory of
8GB in DDR3 SO-DIMM memory type.
Installing and Removing Memory Modules
To install the DDR3 modules, locate the memory slot on the board and perform the
following steps:
1. Hold the DDR3 module so that the key of the DDR3 module aligns with that on
the memory slot. Insert the module into the socket at a slight angle
(approximately 30 degrees). Note that the socket and module are both keyed,
which means that the module can be installed only in one direction.
2. To seat the memory module into the socket, apply firm and even pressure to
each end of the module until you feel it slip down into the socket.
3. With the module properly seated in the socket, rotate the module downward.
Continue pressing downward until the clips at each end lock into position.
4. To remove the DDR3 module, press the clips with both hands.

BIOS Setup
BIOS Introduction
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your computer system’s ROM
provides critical low-level support for a standard device such as disk drives, serial
ports and parallel ports. It also adds virus and password protection as well as special
support for detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.
BIOS Setup
The BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the system configurations
and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores the Setup utility. When you turn on
the computer, the BIOS is immediately activated. Pressing the <Del> key immediately
allows you to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit late pressing the <Del> key,
POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its test routines, thus preventing you
from invoking the Setup. If you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing
the ”Reset” button or simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys.
You can also restart by turning the system Off and back On again. The following
message will appear on the screen:
Press <DEL> or <F2> to Enter Setup
In general, you press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to select, the <PgUp>
and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help and <Esc> to quit.
When you enter the Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will appear on the screen.
The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup functions and exit choices.

Note:
If the system cannot boot after making and saving system changes with
Setup, the AMI BIOS supports an override to the CMOS settings that
resets your system to its default.
Warning:
It is strongly recommended that you avoid making any changes to the
chipset defaults. These defaults have been carefully chosen by both AMI
and your system manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum
performance and reliability. Changing the defaults could cause the system
to become unstable and crash in some cases.

A. I/O Port Address Map
Each peripheral device in the system is assigned a set of I/O port addresses, which
also becomes the identity of the device. The following table lists the I/O port
addresses used.

C. Watchdog Timer Configuration
The WDT is used to generate a variety of output signals after a user programmable
count. The WDT is suitable for use in the prevention of system lock-up, such as when
software becomes trapped in a deadlock. Under these sorts of circumstances, the
timer will count to zero and the selected outputs will be driven. Under normal
circumstance, the user will restart the WDT at regular intervals before the timer counts
to zero.
