Safety Precautions

Before getting started, please read the following important safety precautions.

1. The eBOX670-891-FL does not come with an operating system which must be loaded first before installation of any software into the computer.

2. Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when installing any internal components. Use a wrist grounding strap and place all electronic components in any static-shielded devices. Most electronic components are sensitive to static electrical charge.

3. Disconnect the power cord from the eBOX670-891-FL prior to making any installation.

Be sure both the system and all external devices are turned OFF. Sudden surge of power could ruin sensitive components. Make sure the eBOX670-891-FL is properly grounded.

4. Make sure the voltage of the power source is correct before connecting it to any power outlet.

5. Turn Off system power before cleaning. Clean the system using a cloth only. Do not spray any liquid cleaner directly onto the screen.

6. Do not leave equipment in an uncontrolled environment where the storage temperature is below -40℃ or above 80℃ as it may damage the equipment.

7. Do not open the system’s back cover. If opening the cover for maintenance is a must, only a trained technician is allowed to do so. Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:





Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system unit chassis for a few seconds. This will help discharge any static electricity on human body.

When handling boards and components, wear a wrist grounding strap available from most electronic component stores. iii

Classifications

1. Degree of production against electric shock: not classified

2. Degree of protection against ingress of water: IP40

3. Equipment not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.

4. Mode of operation: Continuous iv

General Cleaning Tips

Please keep the following precautions in mind while understanding the details fully before and during any cleaning of the computer and any components within.

A piece of dry cloth is ideal to clean the device.

1. Be cautious of any tiny removable components when using a vacuum cleaner to absorb dirt on the floor.

2. Turn the system off before clean up the computer or any components within.

3. Avoid dropping any components inside the computer or getting circuit board damp or wet.

4. For cleaning, be cautious of all kinds of cleaning solvents or chemicals which may cause allergy to certain individuals.

5. Keep foods, drinks or cigarettes away from the computer.

Cleaning Tools:

Although many companies have created products to help improve the process of cleaning computer and peripherals, users can also use house hold items accordingly for cleaning.

Listed below are items available for cleaning computer or computer peripherals.

Pay special attention to components requiring designated pro ducts for cleaning as mentioned below.











Cloth: A piece of cloth is the best tool to use when rubbing up a component. Although paper towels or tissues can be used on most hardware as well, it is recommended to use a piece of cloth.

Water or rubbing alcohol: A piece of cloth may be somewhat moistened with water or rubbing alcohol before being rubbed on the computer. Unknown solvents may be harmful to plastic parts.

Absorb dust, dirt, hair, cigarette and other particles outside of a computer can be one of the best methods of cleaning a computer. Over time these items may restrict the airflow in a computer and cause circuitry to corrode.

Cotton swabs: Cotton swaps moistened with rubbing alcohol or water are applicable to reach areas in keyboard, mouse and other areas.

Foam swabs: If possible, it is better to use lint free swabs such as foam swabs.

.

【Note】:

It is strongly recommended that customer should shut down the system before start to clean any single components.

Please follow the steps below:

1. Close all application programs;

2. Close operating software;

3. Turn off power switch;

4. Remove all devices;

5. Pull out power cable. v

Scrap Computer Recycling

Please inform the nearest Axiomtek distributor as soon as possible for suitable solutions in case computers require maintenance or repair; or for recycling in case computers are out of order.

APPENDIX A

WATCHDOG TIMER

About Watchdog Timer

Software stability is major issue in most applications. Some embedded systems are not watched by human for 24 hours. It is usually too slow to wait for someone to reboot when computer hangs. The systems need to be able to reset automatically when things go wrong.

The watchdog timer gives us solutions in this regard.

The watchdog timer is a counter that triggers a system to reset when it counts down to zero from a preset value. The software starts the counter with an initial value and must reset it periodically. If the counter ever reaches zero, it means the software has crashed, the system will reboot.

CONFIGURING SATA FOR RAID

D.1 Configuring SATA Hard Drive(s) for RAID

(Controller: Intel

®

Q170)

Before you begin the SATA configuration, please prepare:

 Two SATA hard drives (to ensure optimal performance, it is recommended that you use two hard drives with identical model and capacity). If you do not want to create RAID with the SATA controller, you may prepare only one hard drive.

Please follow up the steps below to configure SATA hard drive(s):

1.

2.

3.

Install SATA hard drive(s) in your system.

Enter the BIOS Setup to configure SATA controller mode and boot sequence.

Configure RAID by the RAID BIOS.

1. Installing SATA hard drive(s) in your system.

Connect one end of the SATA signal cable to the rear of the SATA hard drive, and the other end to available SATA port(s) on the board. Then, connect the power connector of power supply to the hard drive.

2. Configuring SATA controller mode and boot sequence by the BIOS Setup.

You have to make sure whether the SATA controller is configured correctly by system BIOS

Setup and set up BIOS boot sequence for the SATA hard drive(s).

Configuration SATA For RAID

67


2.1.

Turn on your system, and then press the <Del> button to enter BIOS Setup during running

POST (Power-On Self-Test). If you want to create RAID, just go to the Advanced Settings menu\SATA Configuration, select the

“SATA Mode Selection”, and press <Enter> for more options.

A list of options appears, please select

“RAID”.

2.2.

Save and exit the BIOS Setup.

68

Configuring SATA for RAID


3. Configuring RAID by the RAID BIOS.

Enter the RAID BIOS setup utility to configure a RAID array. Skip this step and proceed if you do not want to create a RAID.

3.1.

After the POST memory testing and before the operating system booting, a message

"Press <Ctrl-I> to enter Configuration Utility" shows up, accordingly, press <Ctrl + I> to enter the RAID BIOS setup utility.

3.2.

After you press <Ctrl + I>, the Create RAID Volume screen will appear. If you want to create a RAID array, select the Create RAID Volume option in the Main Menu and press

<Enter>.


69

70

After entering the Create Volume Menu screen, you can type the disk array name with

1~16 letters (letters cannot be special characters) in the item

“Name”.

3.4.

When finished, press <Enter> to select a RAID level. There are three RAID levels: RAID0,

RAID1 and RAID5 and RAID10. Select a RAID level and press <Enter>.



3.5.

Set the stripe block size. The KB is the standard unit of stripe block size. The stripe block size can be 4KB to 128KB. After the setting, press <Enter> for the array capacity.

3.6.

After setting all the items on the menu, select Create Volume and press <Enter> to start creating the RAID array.


71

72


3.7.

When prompting the confirmation, press <Y> to create this volume, or <N> to cancel the creation.

After the creation is completed, you can see detailed information about the RAID Array in the

Disk/Volume Information section, including RAID mode, disk block size, disk name, and disk capacity, etc.



Delete RAID volume

If you want to delete a RAID volume, select the Delete RAID Volume option in Main Menu.

Press <Enter> and follow on-screen instructions.

Please press <Esc> to exit the RAID BIOS utility. Now, you can proceed to install a SATA driver controller and the operating system.
