ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System Figure 4-1: Bottom Surface Retention Screws Step 2: Gently remove the bottom surface from the ECW-281B/B2-D525. Step 0: 4.2.4 Configure the Jumper Settings To configure the jumper settings, please follow the steps below. Step 1: Remove the bottom surface. See Section 4.2.3. 765 Step 2: Locate the jumper settings on the embedded motherboard. See Chapter 4.2.4.1. 765... Step 3: Make the jumper settings in accordance with the settings described and defined in Chapter 4.2.
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System 4.2.4.1 Jumpers NOTE: A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electrical circuit. It consists of two or three metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To CLOSE/SHORT a jumper means Figure 4-2: Jumpers connecting the pins of the jumper with the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper means removing the plastic clip from a jumper. The WAFER-PV-D5252 motherboard has several onboard jumpers (Table 4-2).
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System 4.2.4.2 CF Card Setup Jumper Label: JCF1 Jumper Type: 2-pin header Jumper Settings: See Table 4-3 Jumper Location: See Figure 4-3 765 765 The CF Card Setup jumper sets the CF Type I card or CF Type II cards as either the slave device or the master device. CF Card Setup jumper settings are shown in Table 4-3.
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System If the ECW-281B/B2-D525 fails to boot due to improper BIOS settings, the clear CMOS jumper clears the CMOS data and resets the system BIOS information. To do this, use the jumper cap to close pins 2 and 3 for a few seconds then reinstall the jumper clip back to pins 1 and 2. If the “CMOS Settings Wrong” message is displayed during the boot up process, the fault may be corrected by pressing the F1 to enter the CMOS Setup menu.
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System 4.2.4.4 COM 6 Function Select Jumper (ECW-281B-D525 Series Only) Jumper Label: JP1 Jumper Type: 8-pin header Jumper Settings: See Table 4-5 Jumper Location: See Figure 4-5 765 765 The COM 6 Function Select jumper sets the communication protocol used by the second serial communications port (COM 6) as RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485. The COM 6 Function Select settings are shown in Table 4-5.
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System 4.2.4.5 COM 1 Pin 9 Setting Jumper Jumper Label: JP2 Jumper Type: 6-pin header Jumper Settings: See Table 4-6 Jumper Location: See Figure 4-6 5 5 The COM 1 Pin 9 Setting jumper configures pin 9 on COM 1 as either a +5 V, +12 V power source or as a ring-in (RI) line. The COM 1 Pin 9 Setting jumper selection options are shown in Table 4-6.
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System 4.2.5 Hard Drive Installation One 2.5” SATA hard drive supported. The SATA drive is installed into a hard drive bracket attached on the inside of the bottom panel (Figure 4-7). 765 Figure 4-7: Hard Drive Bracket To install the hard drive into the system, please follow the steps below. Step 1: Remove the bottom surface See Section 4.2.3.
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System Step 4: Align the retention screw holes in the HDD with those in the bottom of the bracket. Step 5: Secure the HDD with the bracket by inserting four retention screws into the bottom of the bracket (Figure 4-9). 765 Figure 4-9: HDD Retention Screws Step 6: Locate the breather hole of the HDD. Cut off the corresponding area of the breather hole from the thermal pad. Step 7: Adhere the thermal pad to the HDD.
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System Figure 4-10: HDD Thermal Pad Step 8: Replace the HDD bracket onto the bottom surface by aligning the four retention screw holes in the HDD bracket with those in the back of the bottom surface. Step 9: Reinsert the four previously removed retention screws. Step 10: Connect the SATA cable connector in the ECW-281B/B2-D525 to the HDD. Step 11: Replace the bottom surface to the bottom panel by reinserting the six previously removed retention screws.
ECW-281B/B2-D525 Embedded System 4.2.6 Mounting the System with Mounting Brackets To mount the embedded system onto a wall or some other surface using the two mounting brackets, please follow the steps below.
