1.1 Introduction

NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 EPIC SBC
Figure 1-1: NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252
The NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 EPIC motherboard is a Intel® Atom™ processor D525, D425 or N455 platform. Up to one 2.0 GB 800 MHz or 667 MHz DDR3 SDRAM SO-DIMM is supported by the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252.
The integrated Intel® ICH8M Chipset supports a GbE LAN port through the Realtek RTL8111E Ethernet controller (with ASF 2.0 support). The NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 also supports two SATA 3Gb/s drives and provides 5 V SATA power.
The NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 supports dual display via VGA and two internal LVDS LCD connectors. Eight USB 2.0 channels, one PCIe mini socket, one PCI-104 slot and internal one parallel port connector provide flexible expansion options. High Definition Audio (HDA) support ensures HDA devices can be easily implemented on the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252. Serial device connectivity is provided by a RS-232 seri al

2.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING!
Static electricity can destroy certain electronics. Make sure to follow the ESD precautions to prevent damage to the product, and injury to the user.
Make sure to adhere to the following guidelines:
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing an anti-static wristband can prevent
electrostatic discharge.
Self-grounding: Touch a g rounded cond uctor every few minutes to discharge
any excess static buildup.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring any circuit board, place it on an
anti-static mat.
Only handle the edges of the PCB: Don't touch the surface of the
motherboard. Hold the motherboard by the edges when handling.

2.2 Unpacking Precautions

When the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 is unpacked, please do the following:
Follow the antistatic guidelines above.  Make sure the packing box is facing upwards when opening.  Make sure all the packing list items are present.

4.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 may result in permanent damage to the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple ant i-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.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the
NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252, place it on an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the NANO-PV-D4252/ N4552/D5252.
Only handle the edges of the PCB: When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.

4.2 Installation Considerations

NOTE:
The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 and injury to the person installing the motherboard.

4.2.1 Installation Notices

WARNING:
The installation instructions described in this manual should be carefully followed in order to prevent damage to the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252, NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 components and injury to the user.
Before and during the installation please DO the following:
Read the user manual:
o The user manual provides a complete description of the
NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 installation instructions and configuration options.
Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD):
o Electronic components are easily damaged by ESD. Wearing an ESD cuff
removes ESD from the body and helps prevent ESD damage.
Place the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 on an antistatic pad:
Page 42
o When installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic
pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage.
NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 EPIC SBC
Turn all power to the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 off:
o When working with the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252, make sure that it
is disconnected from all power supplies and that no electri city is being fed into the system.
Before and during the installation of the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 DO NOT:

4.5 Jumper Settings

NOTE:
A 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.
Page 44
NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 EPIC SBC
Before the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 is installed in the system, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 are listed in

If the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 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.

WARNING:
Airflow is critical to the cooling of the CPU and other onboard components. The chassis in which the NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/ D5252 must have air vents to allow cool air to move into the system and hot air to move out.
The NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 must be installed in a chassis with ventilation holes on the sides allowing airflow to travel through the heat sink surface. In a system with an individual power supply unit, the cooling fan of a power supply can also help generate
NANO-PV-D4252/N4552/D5252 EPIC SBC
airflow through the board surface.
