1.0.1 Product warranty

Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its prod­ucts will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years
from the date of purchase.

This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or
altered by persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech,
or which have been subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper instal­lation. Advantech assumes no liability under the terms of this warranty as
a consequence of such events.

If an Advantech product is defective, it will be repaired or replaced at no
charge during the warranty period. For out-of-warranty repairs, you will
be billed according to the cost of replacement materials, service time and
freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.

If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:

Step 1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For

example, type of PC, CPU speed, Advantech products used,
other hardware and software used, etc.) Note anything abnormal
and list any on-screen messages you get when the problem
occurs.

Step 2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your man-

ual, product, and any helpful information readily available.

Step 3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return

material authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us
to process your return more quickly.

Step 4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair

and Replacement Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase
date (such as your sales receipt) in a shippable container. A prod­uct returned without proof of the purchase date is not eligible for
warranty service.

Step 5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and

ship it prepaid to your dealer.

Important Safety Information

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This device complies with the requirements in part 15 of the FCC rules: Operation is sub­ject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide rea­sonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio fre­quency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this device in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at his/her own expense. The user is advised that any
equipment changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance would void the compliance to FCC regulations and therefore, the user's
authority to operate the equipment.

CAUTION!!

There is a danger of a new battery exploding if it is incorrectly installed. Do not
attempt to recharge, force open, or heat the battery. Replace the battery only with
the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used bat­teries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Chapter 1 Hardware Configuration

1.1 Introduction

The PCA-6189 is designed with Intel® 855GME chipset and 6300ESB
(I/O controller) to support the Intel® Pentium® M / Celeron® M proces­sor, high speed DDR333 memory, and high performance I/O functions
such as dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, Serial/parallel ATA ports, and a PCI­X (64-bit / 66Mhz) bus. With the compliance with PICMG 1.0 specifica­tion, PCA-6189 can be used with wide choice of existing PCI/ISA back­planes to meet versatile requirements of industrial applications.

The PCA-6189 is designed to deliver high performance but low thermal
profile best for industrial embedded applications. It uses Intel's long-life
855GME and 6300ESB chipset, with the socket 479 it can supports vary
on the Pentium® M and Celeron® M processor by different applications.
It has 2 DIMM sockets and supports ECC (error checking and correction)
function for best reliability. It accepts up to 2GB DDR 333/266 SDRAM
memory, enough for most of applications. PCA-6189 could support dual
Giga LAN with the Gigabit Ethernet ports controller -- Intel® 82541
which is connected to the 32-bit PCI bus of the 6300ESB I/O controller.
With the 855GME integrated graphic controller PCA-6189 provides one
VGA display connector one LVDS and one DVI interface for panel dis­play. Two serial ATA ports (up to 150MB/s)which can support RAID 0,1
functions and allows the use of thin and long SATA cables for storage
devices, eliminating the cabling issue inside an industrial grade chassis.
In addition, the PCA-6189 also provides most of the popular I/O inter­faces such as four USB 2.0 ports, AC-97 audio interface, 2 RS-232 ports,
one enhanced parallel port and floppy disk interface.

The PCA-6189 is designed with reliability considerations to be suitable
for industrial environments. A specially designed heat-sink is attached to
the main chips to keep them cool and to extend the operating temperature
to 60 degree Celsius. The CMOS data backup and restore function pro­tects the BIOS setup data from loss due to battery failure. A 256-level
watchdog timer prevents the system from hanging up if a program cannot
be executed normally. A remote management port allows users to moni­tor the system healthy status and control the system remotely through the
standard SNMP/HTTP protocols when used with Advantech's SNMP­1000 Intelligent System Manager.
