2.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:

Failure to take ESD precautions during installation permanent damage to the TANK-870AI series and severe injury to the user.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the TANK-870AI series. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the TANK-870AI series or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static preca utions 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 TANK-870AI series, place it on

an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the TANK-870AI series.

2.2 Unpacking Precautions

When the TANK-870AI series is unpacked, please do the following:

 Follow the anti-static precautions o utlined in Section 2.1.  Make sure the packing box is facing up wards so the TANK-870AI series does

not fall out of the box.

 Make sure all the components shown in Section 2.3 are present.

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 F2 key 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 t he 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 E keys are shown in.

When F1 is pressed a small help window describing the appropriate keys to use and the possible selections for the highlighted item appears. To ex it the Help Window press E the F1 key again.

5.1.4 Unable to Reboot after Configuration Changes

If the computer cannot boot after changes to the system configuration is made, CMOS defaults. Use the jumper described in Chapter 2.

5.1.5 BIOS Menu Bar

The menu bar on top of the BIOS screen has the foll owing main items:

 Main – Changes the basic system configuration.  Advanced – Changes the advanced system settings.
