A
ECW-281B Embedded System
jumper is a metal bridge used to close
an electrical circuit. It consists of two or
three metal pins and a small metal clip
(often protected by a plastic cover) that
slides over the pins to connect them. To
CLOSE/SHORT a jumper means
connecting the pins of the jumper with
the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper
means removing the plastic clip from a
jumper.
The WAFER-945GSE motherboard has several onboard jumpers (735H735H735HTable 3-19).

If the ECW-281B/281B2-R20 fails to boot due to improper BIOS settings, the clear CMOS
jumper clears the CMOS data and resets the system BIOS information. To do this, use the
jumper cap to close pins 2 and 3 for a few seconds then reinstall the jumper clip back to
pins 1 and 2.
If the “CMOS Settings Wrong” message is displayed during the boot up process, the fault
may be corrected by pressing the F1 to enter the CMOS Setup menu. Do one of the
following:
Enter the correct CMOS setting
Load Optimal Defaults
Load Failsafe Defaults.
After having done one of the above, save the changes and exit the CMOS Setup menu.

4.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
If the following anti-static precautions are not followed, a user may be
injured and the system irreparably damaged.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the WAFER series motherboard and the power module. (Dry climates are
especially susceptible to ESD.) It is therefore critical that whenever the
ECW-281B/281B2-R20 is opened and any electrical component handled, the following
anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
Self-grounding:- Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
