Note: To clear all BIOS settings, including Password protection, activate “Load Default BIOS Settings”

2 Installation Procedure

2.1 Installing the Board

To get the board running follow these steps. If the board shipped from KONTRON has already components like RAM and CPU cooler mounted, then relevant steps below can be skipped.
1. Turn off the PSU (Power Supply Unit)
Warning: Turn off PSU (Power Supply Unit) completely (no mains power connected to the PSU) or
(RAM, LAN cards etc.) might get damaged. Make sure only to use standard ATX PSU. Running the board with non-compliant ATX PSU may damage the board within minutes.
2. Insert the DDR3 DIMM 240pin DIMM module(s)
Be careful to push it in the slot(s) before locking the tabs. For a list of approved DDR3 DIMMs contact your Distributor or FAE. See also chapter “System Memory Support”.
3. Install the processor
The CPU is keyed and will only mount in the CPU socket in one way. Use finger to open/ close the CPU socket. Refer to supported processor overview for details.
4. Cooler Installation
Make sure the heat paste etc. on the cooler is intact and cover the full area of the CPU. Connect Cooler Fan electrically to the FAN_CPU connector.
5. Connecting Interfaces
Insert all external cables for hard disk, keyboard etc. A monitor must be connected in order to change BIOS settings.
6. Connect and turn on PSU
Connect PSU to the board by the ATXPWR (24pole power plug) and the ATX4p (4-pole power plug).
7. Power Button
If the board does not start by itself when switching on the ATX PSU AC mains, then follow these instructions to start the board. Install the Always On Jumper in the Always On position or toggle the PWRBTN_IN# signal (available in the FRONTPNL connector), by momentary shorting pins 16 (PWRBTN_IN#) and pin 18 (GND). A “normally open” switch is recommended.
8. BIOS Setup
Enter the BIOS setup by pressing the <F2> key during boot up. Enter “Exit Menu” and Load Setup Defaults. Refer to the “BIOS Configuration / Setup“ section of this manual for details on BIOS setup.
Jumper for 10 sec (without power connected).

That the enclosure of the peripheral device fulfils the fire protecting requirements of IEC60950.
9. Mounting the board in chassis
Warning: When mounting the board to chassis etc. please notice that the board contains
components on both sides of the PCB which can easily be damaged if board is handled without reasonable care. A damaged component can result in malfunction or no function at all.
When fixing the Motherboard on a chassis it is recommended using screws with integrated washer and a diameter of 7mm. Do not use washers with teeth, as they can damage the PCB and cause short circuits.

2.2 Requirements IEC60950

Take care when designing chassis interface connectors in order to fulfil the IEC60950 standard.
When an interface or connector has a VCC (or other power) pin which is directly connected to a power plane like the VCC plane: To protect the external power lines of the peripheral devices the customer has to ensure:
Wires have suitable rating to withstand the maximum available power.

Warning
Not all CPU even of same type support all functions ex. i7-4770S & i5-4570S supports VPRO other CPU types may not. Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 is supported by i5 and i7, as indicated in above list of processors, and is enabling overclocking of all cores, when operated within the limits of thermal design power, temperature and current.
Note: KTH81 do not support VPRO.
Sufficient cooling must be applied to the CPU in order to remove the effect as listed in above table (Thermal Guideline). The sufficient cooling is also depending on the maximum (worst-case) ambient operating temperature and the actual load of processor.
!
the cooler. Different coolers are available on the market and some is not generating any airflow or is blocking the airflow around these components, causing reduced lifetime.
: Make sure sufficient airflow is always present around the components located below
It is recommended to use a cooler like the Kontron PN 1046-6305 “KTQ77 Cooler”.
The design of this cooler makes sure airflow is always present around the components below the cooler. Even if Fan is set to be off, it is still running a minimum RPM (Rotation Per Minute).
Air sucked in to the cooler
Air blown out of the cooler
Components below the cooler
Note: The temperature of the air blown out of the cooler must be less than 60°C maximum, in order not to
overheat components near the CPU. However most CPU’s requires maximum 57,4°C, so in general, not to violate the CPU specification the temperature of the air should be maximum ~55°C. Some of the 65W CPU’s
running full load and cooled by above cooler, might start throttling at 50°C ambient air temperature.

3.4 System Memory support

The KTH81/mITX, KTQ87/mITX and KTH81/Flex have two DDR3 UDIMM sockets while the KTQ87/Flex has four DDR3 UDIMM sockets. The sockets support the following memory features:
DDR3 1.5V/1.35V UDIMM 240-pin
Dual-channel with 1 UDIMM per channel (2 UDIMM for KTQ87/Flex)
Single/dual rank unbuffered 1333/1600MT/s (PC3-10600/PC3-12800)
The supported 4
From 1GB and up to 2x 8GB (4x 8GB for KTQ87/Flex).
o Note: Less than 4GB displayed in System Properties using 32bit OS o (Shared Video Memory/PCI resources is subtracted)
SPD timings supported
ECC supported
The installed DDR3 DIMM should support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. This allows the BIOS to read and configure the memory controller for optimal performance. If non-SPD memory is used, the BIOS will attempt to configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be impacted.
Memory Operating Frequencies
Regardless of the DIMM type used, the memory frequency will either be equal to or less than the processor system bus frequency. For example, if DDR3 1600 memory is used with a 1333 MHz system bus frequency processor, the memory clock will operate at 167 MHz. The table below lists the resulting operating memory frequencies based on the combination of DIMMs and processor.
DIMM Type Module
DDR3 1333 PC3-10600 1333 1333 / 1600 167 10666 DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 1600 1333 167 10666 DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 1600 1600 200 12800
Notes: Kontron offers the following memory modules:
1GB DDR3 1333 PC3-10600, P/N: 1031-9872 2GB DDR3 1333 PC3-10600, P/N: 1054-3702 4GB DDR3 1333 PC3-10600, P/N: 1054-3703 8GB DDR3 1333 PC3-10600, P/N: 1054-3704
1GB DDR3 1600 PC3-12800, P/N: 1054-3706 2GB DDR3 1600 PC3-12800, P/N: 1054-3707 4GB DDR3 1600 PC3-12800, P/N: 1054-3708 8GB DDR3 1600 PC3-12800, P/N: 1052-5601
Memory modules have in general a much lower longevity than embedded motherboards, and therefor EOL of modules can be expected several times during lifetime of the motherboard. Kontron guarantees that the above P/N will be maintained so that EOL module will be replaced by other similar type of qualified module.
As a minimum it is recommend using Kontron memory modules for prototype system(s) in order to prove stability of the system and as for reference.
For volume production you might request to test and qualify other types of RAM. In order to qualify RAM it is recommend configuring 3 systems running RAM Stress Test program in heat chamber at 60C for a minimum of 24 hours.

3.6 Power Consumption

In order to ensure safe operation of the board, the ATX12V power supply must monitor the supply voltage and shut down if the supplies are out of range – refer to the hardware manual for the actual power supply specification. Please note, In order to keep the power consumption to a minimal level, boards do not implement a guaranteed minimum load. In some cases, this can lead to compatibility problems with ATX power supplies, which require a minimum load to stay in regulation. The KTQ87/mITX / KTH81/mITX board must powered through the ATX4P (4-pole) and the ATX24P (24-pole) connector using standard ATX power supply.
ATX12V supply: Both ATX4P connector and ATX24P connector must be used in according to the ATX12V PSU standard.
Warning: Hot Plugging power supply is not supported. Hot plugging might damage the board.
The requirements to the supply voltages are as follows:
Supply Min Max Note
VCC3.3 3.135V 3.465V
Should be ±5% for compliance with the ATX specification
Vcc 4.75V 5.25V

Some Inverters generates noise on the BKLTCTL signal, causing the LVDS transmission to fail (corrupted picture on the display). By adding a 1Kohm resistor in series with this signal, mounted at the Inverter end of the cable kit, the noise is limited and the picture is stable. If the Backlight Enable is required to be active high then, check the following BIOS Chipset setting: Backlight Signal Inversion = Enabled.

KTQ87 / KTH81 has integrated SATA Host controller (PCH in the Q87 / H81 chipset) which supports independent DMA operation on 6 / 4 ports. One device can be installed on each port, via point-to-point interface (SATA cable), for a maximum of 6 / 4 SATA devices. On the mITX the SATA ports are available as 5 / 3 SATA connectors + 1 mSATA connector and on the Flex the SATA ports are available as 6 / 4 SATA connectors.
All the SATA ports on the Q87 support SATA Gen3 (6.0/3.0/1.5Gb/s) are supported, while two SATA ports on the H81 supports Gen3 and the remaining two ports support Gen2 (3.0/1.5Gb/s).
Note: Before installing OS on a SATA drive make sure the drive is not a former member of a RAID system. If so some hidden data on the disk has to be erased. To do this, connect two SATA drives and select RAID in BIOS. Save settings and select <Ctrl> <I> while booting to enter the RAID setup menu. Now the hidden RAID data will be erased from the selected SATA drive.
Note: KTH81 do not support RAID.
The SATA controller supports:
2 to 6-drive RAID 0 (data striping) 2-drive RAID 1 (data mirroring) 3 to 6-drive RAID 5 (block-level striping with parity). 4-drive RAID 10 (data striping and mirroring) 2 to 6-drive matrix RAID, different parts of a single drive can be assigned to different RAID devices. AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) NCQ (Native Command Queuing). NCQ is for faster data access. Swap bay support (not supported on mSATA) Intel® Rapid Recover Technology 2 – 256TB volume (Data volumes only) Capacity expansion TRIM in Windows 7 (in AHCI and RAID mode for drives not part of a RAID volume).

7.12 “Load Default BIOS Settings” (Load default) (CMOS)
The “Load Default BIOS Settings” Jumper (J5) can be used to recover from incorrect BIOS settings. As an example, incorrect BIOS setting which causes the attached display not to turn on can be erased by this Jumper.
The Jumper has 3 positions: Pin 1-2, Pin2-3 (default position) and not mounted.
Warning Don’t leave the jumper in position 2-3, otherwise if power is disconnected, the
battery will fully deplete within a few weeks.
To Load Default BIOS Settings, inclusive erasing password and RTC:
1. Turn off power completely (no SB5V).
2. Remove the Jumper completely from CMOS1.
3. Insert jumper into position 2-3 (Clear CMOS data).
4. Wait for 10 sec.
5. Move the Jumper back to position 1-2 (default position).
6. Turn on power (use the Power On Button if required to boot).
7. Motherboard beeps number of times.
8. CMOS data lost message are shown.
9. Reboot and enter BIOS setup menu and select new settings.
Motherboard might automatically reboot a few times. Wait until booting is completed.

Reset is used to bring PCI-specific registers, sequencers, and signals to a consistent state. What effect RST# has on
configuration registers. Anytime RST# is asserted, all PCI output signals must be driven to their benign state. In general, this means they must be asynchronously tri-stated. SERR# (open drain) is floated. REQ# and GNT# must both be tri-stated (they cannot be driven low or high during reset). To prevent AD, C/BE#, and PAR signals from floating during reset, the central resource may drive these lines during reset (bus parking) but only to a logic low level–they may not be driven high. RST# may be asynchronous to CLK when asserted or deasserted. Although asynchronous, deassertion is guaranteed to be a clean, bounce­system will respond after reset.
Address and Data are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. A bus transaction consists of an address phase followed by one or more data phases. PCI supports both read and write bursts.

During data phases AD[07::00] contain the least significant byte (lsb) and AD[31::24] contain the most significant byte (msb). Write data is stable and valid when IRDY# is asserted and read data is stable and valid when TRDY# is asserted. Data is transferred during those clocks where both IRDY# and TRDY# are asserted.

PCI clock by the agent reporting the error. The assertion of SERR# is synchronous to the clock and meets the setup and hold times of all bused signals. However, the restoring of SERR# to the deasserted state is accomplished by a weak pullup (same value as used for s/t/s) which is provided by the system designer and not by the 64signaling agent or central resource. This pull-up may take two to three clock periods to fully restore SERR#. The agent that reports SERR#s to the operating system does so anytime SERR# is sampled asserted.
INTERRUPT PINS (OPTIONAL).
Interrupts on PCI are optional and defined as “level sensitive,” asserted low (negative true), using open drain output drivers. The assertion and deassertion of INTx# is asynchronous to CLK. A device asserts its INTx# line when requesting attention from its device driver. Once the INTx# signal is asserted, it remains asserted until the device driver clears the pending request. When the request is cleared, the device deasserts its INTx# signal. PCI defines one interrupt line for a single function device and up to four interrupt lines for a multi-function device or connector. For a single function device, only INTA# may be used while the other three interrupt lines have no meaning.
INTA#
INTB#
INTC#

Interrupt A is used to request an interrupt.
Interrupt B is used to request an interrupt and only has meaning on a multi-function device.
Interrupt C is used to request an interrupt and only has meaning on a multi-function device.
Interrupt D is used to request an interrupt and only has meaning on a multi-function device.
