Owner’s Record
The serial number of this product is located at the rear panel of your system. Refer to
the model and serial number when you contact the factory for services.
IMPORTANT THERMAL NOTE ON SYSTEM USAGE:
This is a fanless system, so it must be properly mounted to allow for proper cooling.
Be sure to use the metal stand to hold the system upright with blue LED on top, or to
mount the system at least 1 or 2 inches away from the flat side surfaces of the system.
This will help keep the system cool and within thermal operating limits.
Do not leave the system turned on and lying flat on its side. This blocks the air flow
through the vents.
Patton suggests keeping the system cool by using the suspend or sleep features of the
NanoServ™.

NanoServ™ User Manual 5 • Taking Care Of Your NanoServ™
Storing
• Do not place your NanoServ™ in a location that is subject to:
- Heating sources, such as a stove, oven, heater, radiator or air duct
- Direct contact from sunlight
- Rain or moisure
- Excessive dust accumulation
- High humidity
- Constant or occasional mechanical movement, vibration or shock
- Strong magnets, magnetic fields or magnetically unshielded speakers
- Ambient temperature of more than 95ºF (35ºC) or less than 32ºF (0ºC)
Do not place other electronic devices or electronic equipment near your NanoServ™.
•
The electromagnetic field of the NanoServ™ may cause interference subjecting the unit to malfunction.
- Provide adequate air ventilation (circulation) to prevent internal buildup of heat. Do not place your
NanoServ™ near the wall, behind the curtains or draperies, or in between two books that block its ventilation slots.
- Leave a space of at least 8 inches (20cm) around the sides and the back panel of the NanoServ™.
•
Change of environmental temperature: Problems may occur when there is a sudden change of
environmental temperature. If the NanoServ™ is brought directly from a cold location to a warm one,
moisture may condense inside the unit. Allow time for the system to reach normal temperature before use.
•
Checking the surrounding appliance(s) before using your NanoServ™: Because the
NanoServ™ uses a high-frequency radio signal, it may interfere with radio or TV reception causing interference or poor signal display. When this happens, move the NanoServ™ to a suitable distance away from
the set.
•
Do not drop the NanoServ™ from the working table or place heavy objects on top of
the NanoServ™.
Storing 22
NanoServ™ User Manual 5 • Taking Care Of Your NanoServ™
Using cables for connection
• To avoid problems, use only the specified interface cables that match the system. The supplier will not be
responsible for problems caused by improper connection with other devices or cables.
• Do not use cut or damaged cables to connect devices to the NanoServ™.
The Interconnecting cables shall be acceptable for external use and shall be
rated for the proper application with respect to voltage, current, anticipated
temperature, flammability, and mechanical serviceability
Cleaning your NanoServ™
• Clean the NanoServ™ with a soft, dry cloth or a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solu-
tion.
• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine, as these may
damage the finish of your NanoServ™.
• When a solid object falls or a liquid spills onto the NanoServ™, turn off the unit immediately and unplug
the 10/100 Ethernet and power cables. Contact a qualified person or your dealer to check the NanoServ™
before you use it again.
• Always disconnect the power cord from the power source before cleaning the NanoServ™.

Troubleshooting your system
This section describes the techniques of resolving some basic problems that you may encounter when using
your NanoServ™. For more troubleshooting guidelines, see “Contacting Patton for assistance” on page 27.
A. The NanoServ™ does not start
• Make sure that the NanoServ™ is properly secured and plugged into a power source before it is turned on.
Make sure the power indicator shows the power is on. See Chapter 2, “NanoServ™ System Overview” on
page 10 for more information about the system power buttons and other connections.
• When the NanoServ™ is plugged into a power strip or the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), make
sure the power strip or UPS is turned on and working normally.
• Check if your VGA or LCD monitor is properly plugged into a power source and turned on. Make sure the
brightness and contrast controls are adjusted correctly. See the manual that came with your monitor for
details.
• If your power control button does not function, remove the AC adaptor. Wait for one minute, and then
reattach the power connection before pressing the power button.
• Condensation may cause the NanoServ™ to malfunction for awhile. If this happens, do not use the
NanoServ™ for at least one hour after the condensation has disappeared.
• When you have checked all the above guidelines and the NanoServ™ still does not work, remove the
power adaptor from the NanoServ™, unplug the power cord, and plug it in again. Then, turn on the
power. This double check is important because sometimes a cable is loose or not completely plugged in.
B. BIOS Error Message
- BIOS error message appears when the NanoServ™ starts
If the BIOS error message appears, press any key to resume or press <DEL> to enter the BIOS setup main
menu.
Follow these steps:
1. Press <DEL>, and the BIOS Setup main menu will appear. Check if HDD is detected at “Pri Master”. If
it is not detected, use the “Sel” keys < > to choose “AUTO”, then go back to the main menu by pressing
<ESC>. Move your cursor down with the “Sel” keys < > , and choose “Save Settings and Exit”, a message
dialog appears as seen below, press <Enter>.
2. “Save current settings and exit (Y/N)? Y ”
3. Go to “Auto Configuration with Optimal Settings” using the “Sel” keys < >, then press <Enter>. A mes-
sage dialog appears as seen below, press “ Y ”, then press <Enter> to save and recover the factory setting.
4. “Load high default settings (Y/N)? N ”
Troubleshooting your system 25
NanoServ™ User Manual 6 • Troubleshooting
C. “Operating System Not Found”
- A message indicating that “Operating system not found” appears when the NanoServ™ starts (Win-
dows won’t start).
- Often this message says that an unformatted blank hard disk or blank IDE flash module is installed.
In this case, there is no problem, just load your desired operating system on the disk or flash.
Enter your BIOS setup main menu by pressing the <DEL> key. (Be sure that your C: drive is enabled).
If Windows still does not start, follow these steps to initialize the BIOS:
– 1. Turn off the NanoServ™.
– 2. Remove any peripheral devices connected to the NanoServ™.
– 3. Restart the NanoServ™.
– 4. Press <DEL> to enter BIOS Setup main menu window.
– 5. Follow the steps as written in item, “B. BIOS Error Message” on page 25.
• If you have just connected your NanoServ™ to a CDR or Floppy disk, remove these peripherals. Restart
the NanoServ™ to confirm that the Windows operating system starts properly.
• If the NanoServ™ continues to display the message ”Operating system not found,” and Windows does not
start, please verify that your system came with a disk or flash, and that it is formatted, and that it contains a
valid operating system.
