There is danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only

with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.

Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.

ATTENTION

Il y a danger d’explosion s’il y a remplacement incorrect de la batterie.

Remplacer uniquement avec une batterie du même type ou d’un type

équivalent recommandé par le constructeur. Mettre au rebut les batteries

usagées conformément aux instructions du fabriquant.

IMPORTANT

This manual covers both PCI-946-1 and P3S440BX Single Board

Computers where the difference resides in the usage of the Celeron® and

Pentium® III® processor respectively.

POWERING-UP THE BOARD

If you should encounter a problem, verify the following items:

Make sure that all connectors are properly connected.

Check your boot diskette.

If the board still does not start up properly, you should try booting your

system with the PCI-946-1 and P3S440BX installed in the system, a monitor

and a mouse connected to the board. This is the minimum required to verify

the board’s operation.

If you still are not able to verify your board, please refer to the

emergency Procedure in the Appendix Section.

If you still are not able to get your board up and running, contact our

technical Support department for assistance.

BIOS UPGRADE & AUTOMATIC CPLD HARDWARE UPGRADE

During the first system boot up after you update the Boot Block Flash BIOS

with the UPGBIOS utility, the BIOS may need to upgrade the CPLD

devices. In such a case, do not interrupt the system in any way (power

down, reset, mouse or keyboard functions). The devices will be

damaged and your board rendered inoperative if you disturb the CPLD

hardware upgrade process!

If your device upgrade was successful, the following message is displayed

under the “Status:” line prior to rebooting:

Update complete successfully, wait for the automatic reboot.

Rebooting in 5 second(s).

If the update is not successful, the following message appears under the

“Status:” line:

ERROR: general failure programming CPLDs!

Please contact Kontron’s technical support.

You must contact Kontron’s technical support for further instructions.

ADAPTER CABLES

While adapter cables are provided from various sources, the pinout is often

different. The direct crimp design offered by Kontron allows the simplest

cable assembly. All cables are available from Kontron Sales Department.

UNPACKING AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

STATIC ELECTRICITY

Since static electricity can cause damage to electronic devices, the following precautions

should be taken:

1. Keep the board in its anti-static package, until you are ready to install it.

2. Touch a grounded surface or wear a grounding wrist strap before removing the board

from its package; this will discharge any static electricity that may have built up in

your body.

3. Handle the board by the edges.

Storage Environment

Electronic boards are sensitive devices. Do not handle or store devices near strong

electrostatic, electromagnetic, magnetic or radioactive fields.

Power Supply

Before any installation or setup, ensure that the board is unplugged from power sources or

subsystems.

Unpacking

Follow these recommendations while unpacking:

1. After opening the box, save it and the packing material for possible future shipment.

2. Remove the board from its anti-static wrapping and place it on a grounded surface.

3. Inspect the board for damage. If there is any damage or missing items, notify Kontron

immediately.

When unpacking you will find:

1. One PCI-946-1 or P3S440BX Single Board Computer.

2. One CDROM containing drivers.
