3. Safety Instructions

3.1. Safety Instructions for the Lithium Battery

The PCI-760 board is equipped with a Lithium battery. For the replacing of this battery please observe the instructions
described in the chapter

Caution!

Danger of explosion when replaced with wrong type of battery. Replace the battery only with
UL recognized Lithium battery that has the same or equivalent type recommended by Kontron.

Do not dispose of lithium batteries in domestic waste. Dispose of the battery according to the local
regulations dealing with the disposal of these special materials (e.g. to the collecting points for the
disposal of batteries).

3.2. Basic Safety and EMC Compatibility

The PCI-760 board is a fixed component that shall be installed into a stationary system by applying good engineering
practices and respecting the information on the intended use of the components with a view to meeting the protection
requirements [refer to (a) and (b)].

9.1.5.1 ”Replacing the Lithium Battery”.

The PCI-760 board was designed and manufactured, having regard to the state of the art, as to ensure that:
(a) the electromagnetic disturbance generated does not exceed the level above which radio and telecommunications

equipment or other equipment cannot operate as intended;
(b) it has a level of immunity to the electromagnetic disturbance to be expected in its intended use which allows it to

operate without unacceptable degradation of its intended use.
The PCI-760 board was designed, manufactured and checked according to the basic safety requirements in the scope of

the low-voltage (LVD) directive.

4. Important Instructions

4. Important Instructions

The manufacturer’s instructions provide useful information on your PCI-760 board.

4.1. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

The components on the board are sensitive to static electricity. Care must therefore be exercised at all times during
handling and inspection of the PCI-960 board, in order to ensure the product integrity.
❏ Do not handle this product while it is outside its protective enclosure, while it is not used for operational purposes,

unless it is otherwise anti-static protected.

❏ Unpack or install this product only at EOS/ESD safe workstations. When safe work station are not guaranteed, it is

important for the user to be electrically discharged before touching the PCI-960 board with his/her hands or tools.
This is most easily done by touching a metal part of your system housing.

❏ Only hold the assemblies at the edge.
❏ Do not touch any connection pins or conductors on the assembly.

4.2. Note on the Warranty

Due to their limited service life, parts which, by their nature, are especially subject to wear (wearing parts) are not
included in the guarantee beyond the legal stipulations. This applies to the batteries, for example.

4.3. Exclusion of Accident Liability Obligation

Kontron Embedded Computers shall be exempted from the statutory accident liability obligation if the user fails to
observe the safety instructions.

4.4. Liability Limitation / Exemption from the Warranty Obligation

In the event of damage to the device caused by failure to observe the hints in this manual and eventually on the device
(especially the safety instructions), Kontron Embedded Computers shall not be required to honor the warranty even
during the warranty period and shall be exempted from the statutory accident liability obligation.

4.5. General Instruction on Usage

In order to ensure safe operation, the user must observe the instructions and warnings contained in this manual.
Kontron Embedded Computers can only guarantee the safety, reliability and performance of the board if following

instructions are observed.

❏ The PCI-760 board must be used in accordance with the instructions for use.
❏ The PCI-760 board is designed to be built-in to a system, which fulfill all necessary technical and environmental

requirements.

❏ When installing the board into a system, ensure that the system is switched off and the systems power cord is

disconnected from the power source. Disconnect all cable connections of peripheral devices from the system.

❏ Ensure that the DC operating voltages adheres to the specification given in the “
❏ Only devices and components which fulfill the requirements of a SELV circuit (security extra low voltage) in

accordance with IEC / EN 60950-1 may be connected to the interfaces of the PCI-760 board.

❏ If extensions are made to the PCI-760 board, the legal stipulations and the board specifications must be observed.

8. Memory Installation

8. Memory Installation

The PCI-760 board supports four DDR2 DIMM sockets (240-pin) for up to a total memory of up to 8GB DDR2 SDRAM.
The single/double sided memory modules can be user-defined combined in sizes of 256MB, 512MB up to max. 2GB per
DDR2 DIMM-socket.

The majority of systems supporting dual-channel memory can be configured in either single-channel or
dual-channel memory mode.

The speed used in all channels is the speed of the slowest DIMM in the system.
Only around a memory of 3.5 GB is usable for most of 32 bit operating systems.
DIMM0 (nearest positioned to the CPU) must be fitted first for AMT and QST feature.

For the best dual-channel memory performance on boards with the Intel dual-channel DDR2 chipsets must be used
identically paired memory modules in channel A and B.

We recommend installing into the board DDR2 DIMM sockets a dual channel kit (identically manufacturer, capacity,
speed, number of chips and modules).

Prerequisites for dual-channel memory configuration:

1. Both modules are the same capacity (e.g. both are 256MB or 512MB)

2. Both modules are the same speed (e.g. both are PC2700 or PC3200)

3. Both have the same number of chips and module sides (e.g. both have the same number of chips on the module,

and both are either single-sided or double-sided).

If other memory configuration is used, the system will revert to the single-channel memory mode (lower­performing mode).

The speed of the bus clock and the timing of the memory access for the whole main memory (RAM) are
given by the slowest DDR2 DIMM Module built-in the system.

9. Jumpers and Connectors Overview

9.1.2. Jumpers on the PCI-760

The jumpers on the PCI-760 allow you to configure your CPU card according to the needs of your applications.

The following examples show the conventions used in this section.

In order to change a jumper setting, turn off the computer using the ATX-power supply switch.
If your power supply has no On/Off switch, disconnect the main power source. The board otherwise
could be damaged.

9.1.2.1. JP1 and JP2: Jumpers for COM2 Configuration as RS422 or RS485

The serial port COM2 (RS232 default setting) can be configured in the BIOS setup RS422 or RS485.
The jumpers JP1 and JP2 allow you to connect or disconnect the termination resistors (120 ohm) on / from the serial port
COM2, when the operation mode in the BIOS is set to RS422 or RS485.

When installing the board at one end of the network, JP1 and JP2 jumper caps must be installed to
connect the 120 ohm termination resistors.

In RS422 mode, both jumper caps (JP1 and JP2) must be installed to connect the 120 ohm line
termination resistors.

This jumper allows you to clear the data (such as system password, date, time, and system setup parameters) in CMOS.

In order to change a jumper setting, please turn off the computer and unplug the power source to the
board. Otherwise, the board could be damaged.

The board might not start with this jumper in “closed” position.
