Overview – Front Panel

Reset Button

The power button is a non-latched switch for ATX mode on/off operation. To turn on the system, press the power button and the PWR LED should light-up green. To turn off the system, issuing a shutdown command in OS is preferred, or you can simply press the power button. To force shutdown when the system freezes, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. Please note that there is a 5-second interval between on/off operations (i.e. once the system is turned off, there is a 5-second wait before you can power-on the system).

System Status LED

There are four LED indicators on the I/O panel: PWR (power), WDT (Watchdog timer), HDD (hard disk drive). The descriptions of the LED are listed in the following table.

Reset Button

The reset button is used to manually reset the system in case of system halt or malfunction. To avoid unexpected reset, the button is purposely placed behind the panel. To reset, please use a pin-like object (eg. tip of a pen) to access the reset button.

2.5G Ethernet Port

The system offers two 2.5Gb Ethernet ports using Intel® I226 controller, and each port each come with screw-lock mechanism (indicated in red). When plugged in and connected via the Ethernet  cable, the LEDs on the RJ45 connector indicate connection status and speed.

DisplayPort

The system has a DisplayPort (DP) output which is a digital display interfaces that mainly connect video source and carry audio to a display device. When connecting a DP, it can deliver up to 4K UHD (4096 x 2304) in resolution. The system is designed to support passive DP adapter/ cable. You can connect to other display devices using DP-to-HDMI cable or DP-to-DVI cable.
With the VGA output on the rear panel, the system supports dual independent display outputs. To support dual display outputs and achieve best VGA/ DisplayPort output resolution in Windows, you need to install corresponding graphics drivers.

USB3.2 Gen1 Port

The system offers four USB 3.2 Gen1 (SuperSpeed USB) ports on its front panel with screw-lock mechanism. They are backward compatible with USB 2.0, USB 1.1 and USB 1.0 devices. UEFI USB is also supported so you can use USB keyboard/ mouse in UEFI shell environment. USB 3.2 Gen1 driver is supported natively in Windows The screw-lock mechanism is available on the three ports indicated in blue and red, and due to the width of the screw-lock connector, only the USB ports indicated in red can be connected simultaneously when using the screw- lock mechanism.

Note
Depending on the design of your screw-lock USB connector, the CMOS reset button may be obstructed if the USB pot below is connected.

CMOS Reset Button

The CMOS Reset button is used to manually reset the motherboard BIOS in case of system halt or malfunction. To avoid unexpected operation, it is purposely placed behind the panel. To reset, please use the tip of a pen, press and hold for at least 5 seconds to reset the BIOS.

 Overview – Rear Panel

4-Pole 3.5mm Microphone-in/ Speaker-out Jack

There is a female 4-pole audio jack for headphone (speaker) output and microphone input. To utilize the audio function in Windows, you need to install corresponding drivers.

VGA Port

VGA connector is the most common video display connection. The VGA output supports up to 1920×1200@60Hz resolution. With the DisplayPort on the front panel, the system supports dual independent display outputs. To support dual display outputs and achieve best VGA/ DisplayPort output resolution in Windows, you need to install corresponding graphics drivers.

Note
Please make sure your VGA cable includes SDA and SCL (DDC clock and data) signals for correct communication with monitor to get resolution/timing information. A cable without SDA/ SCL can cause blank screen on your VGA monitor due to incorrect resolution/timing output.

COM1 Port

The port provides up to 921600 bps baud rate,it is a software-configurable RS-232/422/485 port via 9-pin D-Sub male connector. The operation mode, slew rate and termination of COM1 can be set in BIOS setup utility. The following table describes the pin definition of COM ports

COM2/3/4 Port

The port provides up to 921600 bps baud rate, it can be configured in the BIOS as single RS-422/ 485 port (COM2) or three 3-wire RS-232 ports (COM2/ 3/ 4). An optional 1-to-3 Y-cable is available to connect three RS-232 devices.

USB2.0 Port

The USB2.0 ports are implemented via native xHCI (extensible Host Controller Interface) in the Intel 600 chipset and are backward compatible with USB 1.1 and USB 1.0 devices. UEFI USB support is also provided so you can use USB keyboard/ mouse in UEFI shell environment. xHCI driver is supported natively in Windows 10, therefore you do not need to install xHCI driver to utilize USB functions.

3-pin Terminal Block & Remote ON/ Off

The system accepts a wide range of DC power input from 8 to 35V via a 3-pin pluggable terminal block, which is fit for field usage where DC power is usually provided. The screw clamping mechanism on the terminal block offers connection reliability when wiring DC power. The Remote On/ Off connection allows for external switch extension. It is useful when the system is placed in a cabinet or a not easily accessed location.

Warning
Please make sure the voltage of DC power is correct before you connect it to the system. Supplying a voltage over 35V will damage the system.
