SECTION 3 - SETUP
The IRV-3702 SBC uses the latest AMI Plug-n-Play BIOS that contains an internal Setup Utility for
configuring the system. The BIOS includes a graphical user interface, and a new system configuration
utility, as well as all the features of the standard BIOS. The system configuration settings are stored in
the on-board CMOS memory which is backed up by a Lithium battery.
The Setup Utility can be invoked by first causing a cold boot (reset) or a warm boot (Cntrl Alt Del)
and pressing the Del key when instructed. This will cause the memory diagnostics to be aborted and
the Setup Utility to display the MAIN SETUP MENU. Using the
→↑↑↓↓← cursor keys, move the
highlighted bar to the option you wish to modify and then press Enter to select it. When in the
MAIN SETUP MENU, the F2 key is used to select the colors used in the setup screens, and the F10
key is used to save the changes before exiting the Setup Utility. The Esc key may be used to exit the
Setup Utility without saving the changes. The PgUp and PgDn keys are used to scroll through the
selections for a given setting. PgUp is also used to decrease the setting and PgDn to increase the
setting. In addition, you may also enter the setup utility directly by pressing the Cntrl Alt Esc
simultaneously. A jumper at JP4 is provided to force the BIOS to use its internal default SETUP values.
This is accomplished by first removing power from the IRV-3702 and momentarily interrupting the
battery power to the system controller chip. To interrupt the battery power, install a shunt on pins 3 &
4 momentarily (the "Clear CMOS" position). After waiting a few seconds, remove the shunt jumper.
Note: This procedure must be performed with the power on.
After making the desired selections from the various setup menus, you can save your selections by
pressing the F10 key or by selecting the appropriate selection from the MAIN SETUP MENU.
Notes:
1. The user should be aware that improper selection of certain values in the CHIPSET, POWER
MANAGEMENT, and PNP/PCI selections may cause unpredictable results. If this occurs select the
FAIL SAFE SETTINGS from the MAIN SETUP MENU and then press the F10 to save and exit.
