1.1 Introduction

Figure 1-1: WAFER-US15WP2
The WAFER-US15WP2 is a 3.5" SBC with a 1.1 GHz Intel® Atom™ Z510P or 1.6 GHz Intel® Atom™ Z530P CPU.
WAFER-US15WP2 3.5" SBC
The WAFER-US15WP2 is designed for fanless operation. The low power CPUs don't require active cooling and stay within specified heat range using the included heatsink.
Storage on the board is handled by a SATA port for connecting a hard drive, optical drive or SSD. The CompactFlash® slot on the underside allows a Type I CompactFlash® card to be installed.
The board has three graphics outputs. A VGA output connects to a traditional VGA monitor and two LVDS connectors can be connected to LCD panels.
Other slots and connectors include a PCIe Mini cards slot, RS-232, RS-232/422/485, Gigabit Ethernet, USB ports, audio input and output, and digital I/O.

1.2 Benefits

Some of the WAFER-US15WP2 motherboard benefits include:
Low power consumption  Wide range of I/O interfaces

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 grounded conductor every few minutes to
discharge any excess static buildup.
WAFER-US15WP2 3.5" SBC
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 WAFER-US15WP2 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 installation may result in permanent damage to the product and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the WAFER-US15WP2. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical to strictly adhere to the following anti-static precautions whenever the WAFER-US15WP2, or any other electrical component, is handled.
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 WAFER-US15WP2, place it on
an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the WAFER-US15WP2.
Only handle the edges of the PCB:-: When handling the PCB, hold it by the
edges.

4.2 Installation Considerations

NOTE:
The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the WAFER-US15WP2 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of WAFER-US15WP2 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the WAFER-US15WP2 and injury to the person installing the motherboard.
Page 43
Page 56
WAFER-US15WP2 3.5" SBC
WARNING:
The installation instructions described in this manual should be carefully followed in order to prevent damage to the WAFER-US15WP2, WAFER-US15WP2 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 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 on an antistatic pad:
o When installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic
pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage.
Turn all power off:
o Make sure the product is disconnected from all power supplies and that
no electricity is being fed into the system.
Before and during the installation of the WAFER-US15WP2 DO NOT:
DO NOT remove any of the stickers on the PCB board. These stickers are
required for warranty validation.
DO NOT use the product before verifying all the cables and power connectors
are properly connected.
DO NOT allow screws to come in contact with the PCB circuit, connector pins,
or its components.

4.3 Jumper Settings

NOTE:
A jumper is a metal bridge that is used to close an electrical circuit. It consists of two 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.
Before the WAFER-US15WP2 is installed in the system, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the WAFER-US15WP2 are listed in

Jumper Settings: Jumper Location:
If the WAFER-US15WP2 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.
