Compliances and Certification

CE Certification

This product has passed the CE test for environmental

specifications. Test conditions for passing included the

equipment being operated within an industrial enclosure.

In order to protect the product from being damaged by

ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) and EMI leakage, we

strongly recommend the use of CE-compliant industrial

enclosure products.

FCC Class A Certification

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 equipment in a

residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in

which case the user will be required to correct the

interference at his own expense.

EMC Notice

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 equipment in a residential area is likely to cause

harmful interference in which case users will be required

to correct the interference at their own expense.

Safety Guidelines

Follow these guidelines to ensure general safety:

• Keep the chassis area clear and dust-free before,

during and after installation.

• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that could get

caught in the chassis. Fasten your tie or scarf and roll up

your sleeves.

• Wear safety glasses/goggles if you are working under

any conditions that might be hazardous to your eyes.

• Do not perform any action that creates a potential

hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.

• Disconnect all power by turning off the power and

unplugging the power cord before installing or removing a

chassis or working near power supplies

• Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions

exist.

• Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit;

always check the circuit.

LITHIUM BATTERY CAUTION:

Risk of explosion could occur if battery is replaced by an

incorrect type. Please dispose of used batteries

according to the recycling instructions of your country.

• Installation only by a trained electrician or only by an

electrically trained person who knows all the applied or

related installation and device specifications.

• Do not carry the handle of power supplies when moving

to other place.

• The machine can only be used in a fixed location such

as labs or computer facilities.

Operating Safety

• Electrical equipment generates heat. Ambient air

temperature may not be adequate to cool equipment to

acceptable operating temperatures without adequate

circulation. Be sure that the room in which you choose to

operate your system has adequate air circulation.

• Ensure that the chassis cover is secure. The chassis

design allows cooling air to circulate effectively. An open

chassis permits air leaks, which may interrupt and

redirect the flow of cooling air from internal components.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment

and impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs when

electronic components are improperly handled and can

result in complete or intermittent failures. Be sure to

follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing and

replacing components to avoid these problems.

• Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it

makes good skin contact. If no wrist strap is available,

ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.

• Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic

strap, which should be between 1 and 10 mega ohms

(Mohms).

Chapter 5: UEFI Setup Utility

5.1 Introduction

This section explains how to use the UEFI SETUP UTILITY to configure your system. The UEFI chip on the system

stores the UEFI SETUP UTILITY. You may run the UEFI SETUP UTILITY when you start up the computer. Please press

or during the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) to enter the UEFI SETUP UTILITY, otherwise, POST will continue

with its test routines.

If you wish to enter the UEFI SETUP UTILITY after POST, restart the system by pressing + + , or

by pressing the reset button on the system chassis. You may also restart by turning the system off and then back on.

NOTE: Because the UEFI software is constantly being updated, the following UEFI setup screens and

descriptions are for reference purpose only, and they may not exactly match what you see on your screen.

5.1.1 UEFI Menu Bar The top of the screen has a menu bar with the following selections:

Main: To set up the system time/date information

Advanced: To set up the advanced UEFI features

H/W Monitor: To display current hardware status

Security: To set up the security features

Boot: To set up the default system device to locate and load the Operating System

Exit: To exit the current screen or the UEFI SETUP UTILITY

Use < > key or < > key to choose among the selections on the menu bar, and then press to get into the sub

screen. You can also use the mouse to click your required item.

5.1.2 Navigation Keys Please check the following table for the function description of each navigation key.

Navigation Key(s) Function Description

When you enter the UEFI SETUP UTILITY, the Main screen will appear and display the system overview.

5.3 Advanced Screen

In this section, you may set the configurations for the following items: CPU Configuration, Chipset Configuration, Storage

Configuration, Intel(R) Smart Connect Technology, Super IO Configuration, ACPI Configuration and USB Configuration

WARNING: Setting wrong values in this section may cause the system to malfunction.

Instant Flash

Instant Flash is a UEFI flash utility embedded in Flash ROM. This convenient UEFI update tool allows you to update

system UEFI without entering operating systems first like MS-DOS or Windows®. Just launch this tool and save the new

UEFI file to your USB flash drive, floppy disk or hard drive, then you can update your UEFI only in a few clicks without

preparing an additional floppy diskette or other complicated flash utility. Please be noted that the USB flash drive or hard

drive must use FAT32/16/12 file system. If you execute Instant Flash utility, the utility will show the UEFI files and their

respective information. Select the proper UEFI file to update your UEFI, and reboot your system after UEFI update

process completes.
