1. Getting Started
1.1 Safety Precautions
Warning!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your
chassis whenever you work with the hardware. Do not
make connections while the power is on. Sensitive
electronic components can be damaged by sudden power
surges. Only experienced electronics personnel should
open the PC chassis.
Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before
touching the CPU card. Modern electronic devices are very
sensitive to static electric charges. As a safety precaution,
use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic
components in a static-dissipative surface or static-shielded
bag when they are not in the chassis.

1.4 Manual Objectives
This manual describes in detail the Avalue Technology ECM-BDWH Single Board.
We have tried to include as much information as possible but we have not duplicated
information that is provided in the standard IBM Technical References, unless it proved to
be necessary to aid in the understanding of this board.
We strongly recommend that you study this manual carefully before attempting to interface
with ECM-BDWH series or change the standard configurations. Whilst all the necessary
information is available in this manual we would recommend that unless you are confident,
you contact your supplier for guidance.
Please be aware that it is possible to create configurations within the NVRAM that make
booting impossible. If this should happen, clear the NVRAM settings, (see the description of
the Jumper Settings for details).
If you have any suggestions or find any errors concerning this manual and want to inform
us of these, please contact our Customer Service department with the relevant details.

ECM-BDWH User’s Manual 17
2.2 Installation Procedure
This chapter explains you the instructions of how to setup your system.
1. Turn off the power supply.
2. Insert the SODIMM module (be careful with the orientation).
3. Insert all external cables for hard disk, floppy, keyboard, mouse, USB etc. except for flat
panel. A CRT monitor must be connected in order to change NVRAM settings to support
flat panel.
4. Connect power supply to the board via the ATXPWR.
5. Turn on the power.
6. Enter the BIOS setup by pressing the delete key during boot up. Use the "Save & Exit \
Restore Defaults" feature.
7. If TFT panel display is to be utilized, make sure the panel voltage is correctly set before
connecting the display cable and turning on the power.
Note: Make sure the heat sink and the CPU top surface are in total contact to
avoid CPU overheating problem that would cause the system to hang or
unstable
18 ECM-BDWH User’s Manual
2.2.1
Main Memory
ECM-BDWH provides one 204-pin DDR3L SODIMM socket, supports up to 8GB DDR3L
1333/1600 SDRAM.
(Rear side)
Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing SODIMMs
or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to
both the board and the components.
Locate the SODIMM socket on the board.
Hold two edges of the SODIMM module carefully. Keep away of touching its
connectors.
Align the notch key on the module with the rib on the slot.
Firmly press the modules into the socket automatically snaps into the mounting notch.
Do not force the SODIMM module in with extra force as the SODIMM module only fit
in one direction.
SODIMM
ECM-BDWH User’s Manual 19
To remove the SODIMM modules, push the two ejector tabs on the slot outward
simultaneously, and then pull out the SODIMM module.
Note:
(1) Please do not change any DDR3 SDRAM parameter in BIOS setup to increase
your system’s performance without acquiring technical information in advance.
(2) Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or
optional boards. Before starting these procedures, ensure that you are
discharged of static electricity by touching a grounded metal object briefly.
20 ECM-BDWH User’s Manual
2.3 Jumper and Connector List
You can configure your board to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A
jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch.
It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that
slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a jumper you connect the pins with the clip.
To “open” a jumper you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1,
2, and 3. In this case, you would connect either two pins.
The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows:
A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers.
Connectors on the board are linked to external devices such as hard disk drives, a
keyboard, or floppy drives. In addition, the board has a number of jumpers that allow you to
configure your system to suit your application.
If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your application, contact
your local distributor or sales representative before you make any changes.
The following tables list the function of each of the board's jumpers and connectors.

3.1 Introduction
The BIOS setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. In this
following chapter will describe how to access the BIOS setup program and the
configuration options that may be changed.
3.2 Starting Setup
The AMI BIOS™ is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The BIOS
reads the system information contained in the NVRAM and begins the process of checking
out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system
on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways:
By pressing or immediately after switching the system on, or
By pressing the or key when the following message appears briefly at the
bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self Test).
Press or to enter SETUP
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the
system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" button on the
system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing , , and
keys. Remove all storage can also enter the BIOS Setup Utility.
ECM-BDWH User’s Manual 39
3.3 Using Setup
In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press to select, use the
PageUp and PageDown keys to change entries, press for help and press to
quit. The following table provides more detail about how to navigate in the Setup program
using the keyboard.

3.4 Getting Help
Press F1 to pop up a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and the
possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window press or
key.
3.5 In Case of Problems
If, after making and saving system changes with Setup, you discover that your computer no
longer is able to boot, the AMI BIOS supports an override to the NVRAM settings which
resets your system to its defaults.
The best advice is to only alter settings which you thoroughly understand. To this end, we
strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the chipset defaults. These
defaults have been carefully chosen by both BIOS Vendor and your systems manufacturer
to provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small
change to the chipset setup has the potential for causing you to use the override.
ECM-BDWH User’s Manual 41
3.6 BIOS setup
Once you enter the Setup Utility, the Main Menu will appear on the screen. The Main Menu
allows you to select from several setup functions and exit choices. Use the arrow keys to
select among the items and press to accept and enter the sub-menu.
