CompactPCI J2 Pin Assignment The CT-30 board provides Rear I/O connectivity for special compact systems. Some standard PC interfaces are implemented and assigned to the front panel and to the rear connector J2. When the Rear I/O module is used, of some the signals of the main board are routed to the Rear I/O module interface. Thus the Rear I/O module makes it much easier to remove the CPU in the rack as there is practically no cabling on the CPU board.

After you press the < Delete > key, the main BIOS setup menu displays. You can access the other setup screens from the main BIOS setup menu, such as Chipset and Power menus.
Setup Menu The main BIOS setup menu is the first screen that you can navigate. Each main BIOS setup menu option is described in this user’s guide. The Main BIOS setup menu screen has two main frames. The left frame displays all the options that can be configured. “Grayed” options cannot be configured, “Blue” options can be. The right frame displays the key legend. Above the key legend is an area reserved for a text message. When an option is selected in the left frame, it is highlighted in white.
CT-30 These keys include < F1 >, < F10 >, < Enter >, < ESC >, < Arrow > keys, and so on. . There is a hot key legend located in the right frame on most setup screens. NOTE: The < F8 > key on your keyboard is the Fail-Safe key. It is not displayed on the key legend by default. To set the Fail-Safe settings of the BIOS, press the < F8 > key on your keyboard. It is located on the upper row of a standard 101 keyboard.
F10 The < F10 > key allows you to save any changes you have made and exit Setup. Press the < F10 > key to save your changes. The following screen will appear: Press the < Enter > key to save the configuration and exit. You can also use the < Arrow > key to select Cancel and then press the < Enter > key to abort this function and return to the previous screen. ESC The < Esc > key allows you to discard any changes you have made and exit the Setup.

You can select any of the items in the left frame of the screen to go to the sub menu for that item. You can display an Advanced BIOS Setup option by highlighting it using the < Arrow > keys. The Advanced BIOS Setup screen is shown below. The sub menus are described on the following pages. CPU Configuration You can use this screen to select options for the CPU Configuration Settings.
Intel® Core™2 Duo L7400 Hardware Prefetcher The processor has a hardware prefetcher that automatically analyzes its requirements and prefetches data and instructions from the memory into the Level 2 cache that are likely to be required in the near future. This reduces the latency associated with memory reads. When Enabled, the processor's hardware prefetcher will be enabled and allowed to automatically prefetch data and code for the processor.
CT-30 This reduces cache latency by making the next cache line immediately available if the processor requires it as well. When Enabled, the processor will retrieve the currently requested cache line, as well as the subsequent cache line. When Disabled, the processor will only retrieve the currently requested cache line.
CPU Frequency on XP/Linux This option is used to manually set the CPU frequency on XP and Linux operating systems. The following options are available: 1500MHz, 1333MHz, 1166MHz, and 1000MHz. Intel® Core™ Duo U2500 Intel® Virtualization Technology This is used to enable or disable the Intel® Virtualization Technology (IVT) extension, which is also known by the development code name of Vanderpool. It allows multiple operating systems to run simultaneously on the same system.
CT-30 Intel® SpeedStep™ Techology This allows you to enable or disable Intel® SpeedStep™ Technology.
IDE Configuration You can use this screen to select options for the IDE Configuration Settings. Use the up and down < Arrow > keys to select an item. Use the < + > and < - > keys to change the value of the selected option. A description of the selected item appears on the right side of the screen. The settings are described on the following pages. An example of the IDE Configuration screen is shown below.
CT-30 Primary IDE Master, Primary IDE Slave, Secondary IDE Master, Secondary IDE Slave Select one of the hard disk drives to configure it. Press < Enter > to access its sub menu.
