System Maintenance

Page 79


5.1 System Maintenance Introduction

If the components of the AFL3-12C-ULT3 fail they must be replaced. Please contact the system reseller or vendor to purchase the replacement parts. Back cover removal instructions for the AFL3-12C-ULT3 are described below.

5.2 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:

Failure to take ESD precautions during the maintenance of the



Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the AFL3-12C-ULT3. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the AFL3-12C-ULT3 is accessed internally, or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.

 Wear an anti-static wristband : - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.

 Self-grounding : - Before handling the board touch any grounded conducting material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the ground.

 Use an anti-static pad : - When configuring the AFL3-12C-ULT3, place it on an anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the

AFL3-12C-ULT3.

 Only handle the edges of the PCB : - When handling the PCB, hold the PCB by the edges.

Page 80


5.3 Turn off the Power

WARNING:

Failing to turn off the system before opening it can cause permanent damage to the system and serious or fatal injury to the user.

Before any maintenance procedures are carried out on the system, make sure the system is turned off.

5.4 SO-DIMM Module Replacement

The AFL3-12C-ULT3 has one SO-DIMM module installed. To replace the SO-DIMM module, follow the instructions below.

Step 1: Follow all anti-static procedures. See Section 5.2

.

Step 2: Turn off the power. See Section 5.3.


Section 3.4

above.

Step 4:

Locate the SO-DIMM module (Figure 5-1).

Page 81


Figure 5-1: SO-DIMM module Location

Step 5: Remove the DDR4 memory module by pulling both the spring retainer clips outward from the socket.

Step 6: Grasp the DDR4 memory module by the edges and carefully pull it out of the socket.

Step 7: Install the new DDR4 memory module by pushing it into the socket at a 20º

angle ( Figure 5-2 ).

Step 8: Gently push the memory module downwards and the arms clip into place

( Figure 5-2 ).

Figure 5-2: SO-DIMM Installation

Watchdog Timer

Page 117


NOTE:

The following discussion applies to DOS. Contact IEI support or visit the IEI website for drivers for other operating systems.

The Watchdog Timer is a hardware-based timer that attempts to restart the system when it stops working. The system may stop working because of external EMI or software bugs.

The Watchdog Timer ensures that standalone systems like ATMs will automatically attempt to restart in the case of system problems.

A BIOS function call (INT 15H) is used to control the Watchdog Timer.

INT 15H:

AH – 6FH Sub-function:

AL – 2: Sets the Watchdog Timer’s period.

BL: Time-out value (Its unit-second is dependent on the item “Watchdog

Timer unit select” in CMOS setup).

Table D-1: AH-6FH Sub-function

Call sub-function 2 to set the time-out period of Watchdog Timer first. If the time-out value is not zero, the Watchdog Timer starts counting down. When the timer value reaches zero, the system resets. To ensure that this reset condition does not occur, calling sub-function

2 must periodically refresh the Watchdog Timer. However, the watchdog timer is disabled if the time-out value is set to zero.

A tolerance of at least 10% must be maintained to avoid unknown routines within the operating system (DOS), such as disk I/O that can be very time-consuming.

Page 118


NOTE:

The Watchdog Timer is activated through software. The software application that activates the Watchdog Timer must also deactivate it when closed. If the Watchdog Timer is not deactivated, the system will automatically restart after the Timer has finished its countdown.
