Product Warranty
Evalue warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be free from
defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of purchase.
This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by
persons other than repair personnel authorized by Evalue, or which have been subject to
misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Evalue assumes no liability under the
terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events. Because of Evalue’s high
quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of our customers never need to use
our repair service. If an Evalue’s product is defective, it will be repaired or replaced at no
charge during the warranty period. For out-of-warranty repairs, you will be billed
according to the cost of replacement materials, service time, and freight. Please consult
your dealer for more details. If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:
1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU type
and speed, Evalue’s products model name, hardware & BIOS revision number, other
hardware and software used, etc.) Note anything abnormal and list any on-screen
messages you get when the problem occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product, and
any helpful information readily available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return material authorization)
number from your dealer. This allows us to process your good return more quickly.
4. Carefully pack the defective product, a complete Repair and Replacement Order Card
and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt) in a shippable
container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date is not eligible for
warranty service.
5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and ship it prepaid to
your dealer.

ECM-5716 Series User’s Manual 1
1. Manual Objectives
This manual describes in detail the Evalue Technology ECM-5716 series 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-5716 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 CMOS RAM that
make booting impossible. If this should happen, clear the CMOS 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.

2. Introduction
2.1 System Overview
The ECM-5716 series is a compact 5.25” CD-ROM size Single Board Computer that
equips with Intel Banias Chipset, LCD Interfaces, AC97 Audio, dual 10/100Base-Tx
Ethernet, four USB2.0interfaces, dual IEEE1394 interfaces, PCMCIA, and Compact Flash.
The ECM-5716 series support Intel Pentium M series CPU, which are powerful in
performance and low power in system consumption. Its display is bolstered up with the
chipset Intel 855GME Integrated graphics which supports LVDS flat panel, DVO, and CRT
interfaces. This makes this PC engine a perfect solution for Retail / Financial Transaction
Terminals, and high-end multimedia POS / KIOSK Terminals.
Furthermore, the ECM-5716 series is outstanding in a 5.25" form factors designed with
Intel 82801DB ICH4 built-in and 82551ER or Intel 82551QM PCI-bus Ethernet
10/100Base-Tx Ethernet controllers (optional an Intel 82540EM PCI-bus Ethernet
controller onboard support Gigabit Ethernet function) making it the ideal solution for
popular networking devices like Gateway, Router, Thin Server, Firewall and E-Box. In
addition, the on board IEEE1394 and 4USB2.0interfaces make the ECM-5716 series
also ideal for demanding high-end Entertainment Devices that require high integration
multimedia Single Board Computer.

2.3.1 855GME and 82801DB
The Intel 855GM/855GME GMCH components provide the processor interface, DDR
SDRAM interface, display interface, and Hub interface. The Intel 855GME also has an
option for AGP external graphics port, in addition to integrated graphics support for added
board flexibility options.
The Intel 855GM GMCH is in a 732-pin Micro-FCBGA package and contains the following
functionality listed below:

Enhanced PowerManagementGraphics features•
The GMCH IGD provides a highly integrated graphics accelerator delivering high
performance 2D, 3D, and video capabilities. With its interfaces to UMA using a DVMT
configuration, an analog display, a LVDS port, and two digital display ports (e.g. flat
panel), the GMCH can provide a complete graphics solution.
The GMCH also provides 2D hardware acceleration for block transfers of data (BLTs).
The BLT engine provides the ability to copy a source block of data to a destination and
perform raster operations (e.g., ROP1, ROP2, and ROP3) on the data using a pattern,
and/or another destination. Performing these common tasks in hardware reduces CPU
load, and thus improves performance. High bandwidth access to data is provided through
the system memory interface. The GMCH uses Tiling architecture to increase system
memory efficiency and thus maximize effective rendering bandwidth. The Intel
855GM/855GME GMCH improves 3D performance and quality with 3D Zone rendering
technology. The Intel 855GME GMCH also supports Video Mixer rendering, and Bi-Cubic
filtering.
The Intel 855GM/855GME GMCH has four display ports, one analog and three digital.
With these interfaces, the GMCH can provide support for a progressive scan analog
monitor, a dedicated dual channel LVDS LCD panel, and two DVO devices. Each port can
transmit data according to one or more protocols. The data that is sent out the display port
is selected from one of the two possible sources, Pipe A or Pipe B.
