System Overview
1.1 Introduction
Powell Inc., a world-leading innovator in the Industrial PC (IPC) market and a
member of the Intel® Communications Alliance, has launched its new
WADE-8079 series in response to market demand for a simplified embedded
system board (ESB)that combines a smaller footprint, lower power consumption,
robust computing power and with longevity support.
Built with Intel’s latest chipset, WADE-8079 series take advantage of the Intel®
Atom™ Valleyview E38XX series and Intel® Celeron® J1900 processors.
WADE-8079 has lots of features, also features Two SATA connectors (SATA
3Gb/s) storage specification(Switch with mini-PCIe slot) , Two DDR3 SO-DIMM
memory slot for DDR3L non-ECC SDRAM up to 8GB, support total 5 USB ports
(1x USB3.0 and 2x USB2.0 on REAR I/O, 2x USB2.0 on board header), VGA / DVI
/ DP / LVDS display ,Dual Gigabit Ethernet, and one PCIe x1 slot .
WADE-8079’s ability to drive two displays simultaneously makes them
particularly suitable for lottery and gaming applications. They are also ideal for
applications such as point-of-sale (POS), digital signage, kiosks, Panel PC
1.2 Check List

System Installation
This chapter provides you with instructions to set up your system. The additional
information is enclosed to help you set up onboard PCI device and handle Watch Dog
Timer (WDT) and operation of GPIO in software programming.
3.1 Intel® Valleyview CPU
Intel® E3800 family CPU
3.2 Main Memory
WADE-8079 provides 1 x 204-pin SO-DIMM sockets which supports 1333 MHz
DDR3L-SDRAM (1.35V) memory as main memory, non-ECC (non-Error Checking
and Correcting). The maximum memory can be up to 8GB. Memory clock and related
settings can be detected by BIOS via SPD interface.
Watch out the contact and lock integrity of memory module with socket, it will
impact on the system reliability. Follow normal procedures to install memory module
into memory socket. Before locking, make sure that all modules have been fully
inserted into the card slots.
3.3 Installing the Single Board Computer
To install your WADE-8079 into standard chassis or proprietary environment, please
perform the following:
Step 1 : Check all jumpers setting on proper position
Step 2 : Install and configure CPU and memory module on right position
Step 3 : Place WADE-8079 into the dedicated position in the system
Step 4 : Attach cables to existing peripheral devices and secure it
WARNING
Please ensure that mother board is properly inserted and fixed by mechanism.
Note:
Please refer to section 3.3.1 to 3.3.4 to install INF, Graphic, LAN and Audio drivers.

BIOS Setup Information
WADE-8079 is equipped with the Phoenix BIOS stored in Flash ROM. These BIOS has
a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration
easily. This type of information is stored in CMOS RAM so that it is retained during
power-off periods. When system is turned on, WADE-8079 communicates with
peripheral devices and checks its hardware resources against the configuration
information stored in the CMOS memory. If any error is detected, or the CMOS
parameters need to be initially defined, the diagnostic program will prompt the user
to enter the SETUP program. Some errors are significant enough to abort the start up.
.

Troubleshooting
This chapter provides a few useful tips to quickly get WADE-8079 running with
success. As basic hardware installation has been addressed in Chapter 2, this chapter
will primarily focus on system integration issues, in terms of BIOS setting, and OS
diagnostics.
5.1 Hardware Quick Installation
ATX Power Setting
Unlike other Single board computer, WADE-8079 supports a Power adaptor only.
Therefore, there is no other setting that really needs to be set up. However, there is 12
/ 24V DC Jack – J3 on the WADE-8079 board.
12 / 24V DC Jack – J3
Serial ATA
Unlike IDE bus, each Serial ATA channel can only connect to one SATA hard disk at a
time;
The installation of Serial ATA is simpler and easier than IDE, because SATA hard
disk doesn’t require setting up Master and Slave, which can reduce mistake of
hardware installation.
The WADE-8079 can support two SATA interface (SATAII, 3.0 Gb/s) with IDE or
AHCI mode. It has two J16 & J19 SATA ports on the board.
Troubleshooting
WADE-8079 User’s Manual 5-2
5.2 BIOS Setting
It is assumed that users have correctly adopted modules and connected all the
devices cables required before turning on ATX power. 204-pin DDR3L Memory,
keyboard, mouse, SATA hard disk, VGA connector, power cable of the device, ATX
accessories are good examples that deserve attention. With no assurance of properly
and correctly accommodating these modules and devices, it is very possible to
encounter system failures that result in malfunction of any device.
To make sure that you have a successful start with WADE-8079, it is recommended,
when going with the boot-up sequence, to hit “F2” key and enter the BIOS setup
menu to tune up a stable BIOS configuration so that you can wake up your system far
well.
Loading the default optimal setting
When prompted with the main setup menu, please scroll down to “Load Setup
Defaults”, press “Enter” and select “Yes” to load in default optimal BIOS setup. This
will force your BIOS setting back to the initial factory configuration. It is
recommended to do this so you can be sure the system is running with the BIOS
setting that Portwell has highly endorsed. As a matter of fact, users can load the
default BIOS setting any time when system appears to be unstable in boot up
sequence.
5.3 Q&A
Information & Support
Question: I forget my password of system BIOS, what am I supposed to do?
Answer:
You can switch off your power supply then find the JP6 to set it from 1-2 short to 2-3
short and wait 5 seconds to clean your password then set it back to 1-2 short to switch
on your power supply.

Question: How to install USB 3.0 Windows 7 driver of the WADE-8079?
Answer:
Because of the WADE-8079 is Bay Trail platform, USB 3.0 driver need to use the other
method to install USB 3.0 driver on windows 7, but windows 8 OS doesn’t.
Step1. You must disable the XHCI mode and enable the EHCI Controller from BIOS
setup menu before install windows 7.
Step2. After complete the Windows 7 installation then change the BIOS setting of
XHCI mode to [Smart Auto] and keep EHCI Controller as [Enable].
Step3. Then Boot into windows 7 and install the USB 3.0 driver.
Troubleshooting
WADE-8079 User’s Manual 5-6
Step4. After USB 3.0 driver installed completely, you have to change the BIOS setting
of XHCI mode to [Enable] and EHCI Controller to [Disable], and then complete the
procedure.
Complete the USB 3.0 driver installation.
Following the above 4 steps, USB 3.0 can work well on Windows 7 OS.
