VGA Monitor: Any standard VGA or multi-resolution monitor may be used. The setup
instructions in this chapter assume the use of a standard VGA monitor, TV, or flat
panel monitor.
Keyboard: The development board can support either a PS/2 or USB style keyboard.
Mouse: The development board can support either a PS/2 or USB style mouse.
Hard Drives and Optical Disc Drives: Up to Three SATA drives and two IDE devices
(master and slave) may be connected to the development board. An optical disc drive
may be used to load the OS. All these storage devices may be attached to the board
simultaneously.
Video Adapter: Integrated video is output from the VGA connector on the back panel
of the development board. Alternately, a standard PCI Express* video adapter, ADD2
card or MEC video adapter may be used for additional display flexibility. Please contact
the respective vendors for drivers and necessary software for adapters not provided
with this development kit. Check the BIOS and the graphics driver, where appropriate,
for the proper video output settings.
Note: The enclosed driver CD includes drivers necessary for LAN, Integrated graphics, and
system INF utilities.
Network Adapter: A Gigabit network interface is provided on the development
board. The network interface will not be operational until after all the necessary
drivers have been installed. A standard PCI/PCI Express* adapter may be used in
conjunction with, or in place of, the onboard network adapter. Please contact the
respective vendors for drivers and necessary software for adapters not provided with
this development kit.
You must supply appropriate network cables to utilize the LAN connector or any other
installed network cards.
Power Supply: The development board has the option to be powered from two
different power sources: an ATX power supply or AC to DC adapter. The development
board contains all of the voltage regulators necessary to power the system.
There are two main supported power supply configurations, Desktop and Mobile. The
Desktop solution consists of only using the ATX power supply. The Mobile solution
consists of only using the AC to DC adapter.
Warning: The power supply cord is the main disconnect device to mains (AC power). The socket
outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be readily accessible.
Note: Desktop peripherals, including add-in cards, will not work in mobile power mode. If
desktop peripherals are used, the development board must be powered using desktop
power mode.
If using an ATX power supply, select a power supply that complies with the "ATX12V"
1.1 specification. For more information, refer to http://www.formfactors.org
.
Note: If the power button on the ATX power supply is used to shut down the system, wait at
least five seconds before turning the system on again to avoid damaging the system.
