1.5LED Indicators (DRPC-100-CV-LED Only)
The LED indicators on the front panel of the DRPC-100-CV-LED are shown in Figure 1-4.
Failure to take ESD precautions during installation may result in
permanent damage to the DRPC-100 and severe injury to the user.
2.1 Anti-static Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the DRPC-100. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore
critical that whenever the DRPC-100 or any other electrical component is 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.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the DRPC-100, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the DRPC-100.
2.2 Unpacking Precautions
When the DRPC-100 is unpacked, please do the following:
Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 2.1.
Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the DRPC-100 does not fall
out of the box.
Make sure all the components shown in Section 2.3 are present.

WARNING:
Some surfaces of the equipment may become hot during operation.
The surface temperature may be up to several tens of degrees hotter
than the ambient temperature. Under these circumstances, the
equipment needs to be protected against accidental contact.
3.1 Installation Precautions
During installation, be aware of the precautions below:
Read the user manual: The user manual provides a complete description of
the DRPC-100, installation instructions and configuration options.
DANGER! Disconnect Power: Power to the DRPC-100 must be
disconnected during the installation process. Failing to disconnect the power
may cause severe injury to the body and/or damage to the system.
Qualified Personnel: The DRPC-100 must be installed and operated only by
trained and qualified personnel. Maintenance, upgrades, or repairs may only
be carried out by qualified personnel who are familiar with the associated
dangers.
Air Circulation: Make sure there is sufficient air circulation when installing the
DRPC-100. The DRPC-100’s cooling vents must not be obstructed by any
objects. Blocking the vents can cause overheating of the DRPC-100. Leave at
least 5 cm of clearance around the DRPC-100 to prevent overheating.
Grounding: The DRPC-100 should be properly grounded. The voltage feeds
must not be overloaded. Adjust the cabling and provide external overcharge
protection per the electrical values indicated on the label attached to the back
of the DRPC-100.
3.1.1 High Surface Temperature
The equipment is intended for installation in a RESTRICTED ACCESS LOCATION.

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.

To access the jumpers, the motherboard has to be removed from the DRPC-100. Follow
the instruction described in Section 3.3 to complete the task.
3.5.2 Clear CMOS Jumper
If the DRPC-100 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 the pins for a few seconds then remove the jumper clip.
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.
The clear CMOS jumper settings are shown in Table 3-2.

5.1 Introduction
The BIOS is programmed onto the BIOS chip. The BIOS setup program allows changes to
certain system settings. This chapter outlines the options that can be changed.
5.1.1 Starting Setup
The UEFI BIOS is activated when the computer is turned on. The setup program can be
activated in one of two ways.
1. Press the DEL or F2 key as soon as the system is turned on or
2. Press the DEL or F2key when the “Press DEL or F2 to enter SETUP”
message appears on the screen.
If the message disappears before the DEL or F2 key is pressed, restart the computer and
try again.
5.1.2 Using Setup
Use the arrow keys to highlight items, press ENTER to select, use the PageUp and
PageDown keys to change entries, press F1 for help and press ESC to quit. Navigation
