1. Introduction
1.1 Description
The ADE-6050 all-in-one Mini-ITX is designed to fit a high performance IntelR CoreTM Duo based processor and compatible for high -end computer system applications with PCI bus architecture to meet today’s demanding pace and keep complete compatibility with hardware and software designed. The onboard devices support one PCI Express x1 and one PCI slot, integrated graphics, and onboard dual Marvell Gigabit Ethernet controllers. It’s beneficial to build up a high performance and high data availability system for VARs, or system integrators.
The ADE-6050 supports IntelR CoreTM Duo socket M processors built IntelR 945GM and ICH7M chipset integrated GMA 950 graphics with DVMT 3.0 display memory up to 224 MB for dual display function by VGA/LVDS, VGA/DVI, and DVI/LVDS. The board supports two SODIMMs up to 2 GB with dual channel DDR2 533/667, enhanced onboard one PCI-IDE interface supporting one drive up to PIO mode 4 timing and Ultra ATA 33/66/100 synchronous mode feature, one CF socket interface, and two SATAII high -speed data
transferring at up to 3 GB/s, integrated RealtekR ALC655 AC97 codec. The onboard Super I/O chipsets support four serial ports: two RS-232 serial port interfaces and two RS-232 pin headers, Hardware Monitor function, eight Hi-speed USB 2.0 ports offering up to 40X greater bandwidth over USB 1.1, and two 6-pin Mini-DIN connectors for PS/2 mouse and keyboard. Besides, high precision Real Time Clock built to support Y2K for accurate scheduling and storing configuration information, one 20-pin standard connector designed to support ATX power function, and a feature of CPU overheat protection will provide user more security and stability.
Target for key embedded applications such as Point of Sales (POS), automated KIOSKs, medical instruments, advanced automation for buildings and homes, and gaming machines. All of these features make ADE-6050 excellent in all-in-one applications.

2. Hardware Configuration Setting
This chapter gives the definitions and shows the positions of jumpers, headers and connectors. All of the configuration jumpers on the board are in the proper position. The default settings shipped from factory are marked with an asterisk («).
In general, jumpers on the board are used to select options for certain features. Some of the jumpers are designed to be user-configurable, allowing for system enhancement. The others are for testing purpose only and should not be altered. To select any option, cover the jumper cap over (SHORT) or remove (NC) it from the jumper pins according to the following instructions. Here, NC stands for “Not Connect”.

3. System Installation
This chapter provides you with instructions on how to setup your system. The additional information shows you how to install CPU / FAN and memory.
3.1 Socket 478 Processors
3.1.1 Installing CPU
w Check and confirm that you are going to install correctly CPU type and pin numbers. w Take the screwdriver and releasing screw-nut of the socket 478. w Rotate mark of screw -nut to face the “OPEN”. w Align the pins of the CPU against the pinholes of the socket 478. Be sure to pay
attention to the orientation of the CPU.
OPEN
Screw Nut
CLOSED
w Push down the CPU into the socket 478. w Rotate mark of screw -nut to face the “CLOSED”.
Note: Do not force the CPU into the socket. It may bend the pins and damage the
CPU.
3.2 Installing Cooling Fan
Warning： For a safety landing, avoid leaving prongs on hard surface. Instructions：Smear thermal grease on the top of the CPU. Lower the CPU fan onto
the CPU/CPU socket and secure it using the attachments or screws provided on the fan. Finally, attach the fan power cable to the CPUFAN adapter and be careful not to place the cable on the CPU cooling fan.

3.3 Main Memory
The figures display the notch marks and what they should look like on your SO-DIMM memory module.
SO-DIMM ha s 200-pins and two notches, that will match with the onboard SO-DIMM socket. Memory modules are installed by placing the chip firmly into the socket at a parallel angle and pressing straight down until it fits tightly into the SO-DIMM socket.
SO-DIMM Memory and 200-pins Socket
Memory Installation
NOTE: For maintaining system stability, do not change any of memory parameters in BIOS
setup to upgrade your system performance without acquiring technical information.
3.4 Installations
To install the board into standard chassis or proprietary environment, you need to perform the following steps:
1. Check all jumpers setting on proper position
2. Install and configure CPU and memory module on right position
3. Place the board into the dedicated position in your system
4. Attach cables to existing peripheral devices and secure it

4. BIOS Setup
4.1 Entering Setup
PHOENIX-AWARD™ has a built-in setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This information is stored in CMOS RAM whose power is supplied by a battery so that it can retain the setup information even when the power is turned off. Press the key “Delete” when you Power on or Reboot the computer system. (i.e. After the logo appears at the center of the screen, please press Delete to enter the BIOS setup program). In the BIOS, make sure that everything is working fine before you try to optimize it for maximum performance.
It is possible for the CMOS battery to fail, this will cause data loss in the CMOS only. If this does happen you will need to reconfigure your BIOS settings.
4.2 Main Menu
When you enter the PHOENIX-AWARD™ CMOS Setup Utility, the Main will appear on the screen. The Main allows you to select several configuration options. Use the left/right arrow keys to highlight a particular configuration screen from the top menu bar or use the down arrow key to access and configure the information below.

Set User Password: just can only enter but do not have the right to change the options of
the setup menus. When you select this function, the following message will appear at the center of the screen to assist you in creating a password.
ENTER PASSWORD:
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>. The
password typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password.
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the
password. A message will confirm the password will be disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try
to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to request a
password every time your system is rebooted. This would prevent unauthorized use of your computer.
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features Setup Menu and its Security option (see Chapter 4). If the Security option is set to “System”, the password will be required both at boot and at entry to Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter Setup.

Save & Exit Setup
Pressing <Enter> on this item asks for confirmation:
Save to CMOS and EXIT (Y/N)? Y
Pressing “Y” stores the selections made in the menus in CMOS – a special section of
memory that stays on after you turn your system off. The next time you boot your computer, the BIOS configures your system according to the Setup selections stored in CMOS. After saving the values the system is restarted again.
Exit Without Saving
Pressing <Enter> on this item asks for confirmation:
Quit without saving (Y/N)? Y
This allows you to exit Setup without storing in CMOS any change. The previous
selections remain in effect. This exits the Setup utility and restarts your computer.
