FCC Class A
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:
(1)This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2)This device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a

RoHS
ARBOR Technology Corp. certies that all components in its products are in
compliance and conform to the European Union’s Restriction of Use of Haz-
ardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS) Directive
2002/95/EC.
The above mentioned directive was published on 2/13/2003. The main pur-
pose of the directive is to prohibit the use of lead, mercury, cadmium, hexava-
lent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), and polybrominated diphenyl
ethers (PBDE) in electrical and electronic products. Member states of the EU
are to enforce by 7/1/2006.
ARBOR Technology Corp. hereby states that the listed products do not contain
unintentional additions of lead, mercury, hex chrome, PBB or PBDB that ex-
ceed a maximum concentration value of 0.1% by weight or for cadmium exceed
0.01% by weight, per homogenous material. Homogenous material is dened
as a substance or mixture of substances with uniform composition (such as sol-
ders, resins, plating, etc.). Lead-free solder is used for all terminations (Sn(96-
96.5%), Ag(3.0-3.5%) and Cu(0.5%)).

SVHC / REACH
To minimize the environmental impact and take more responsibility to the
earth we live, Arbor hereby conrms all products comply with the restriction
of SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) in (EC) 1907/2006 (REACH
--Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals)
regulated by the European Union.
All substances listed in SVHC < 0.1 % by weight (1000 ppm)
Warning
Single Board Computers and their components contain very delicate
Integrated Circuits (IC). To protect the Single Board Computer and its
components against damage from static electricity, you should always follow
the following precautions when handling it :
1. Disconnect your Single Board Computer from the power source when you
want to work on the inside.
2. Hold the board by the edges and try not to touch the IC chips, leads or cir-
cuitry.
3. Use a grounded wrist strap when handling computer components.
4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that comes
with the Single Board Computer, whenever components are separated from
the system.
Replacing the Lithium Battery
Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion.
The lithium battery must be replaced with an identical battery or a battery type
recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not throw lithium batteries into the trash-can. It must be disposed of in
accordance with local regulations concerning special waste.

Introduction
1.2 About This Manual
This user’s manual provides general information and installation instructions
about the product. This User’s Manual is intended for experienced users and
integrators with hardware knowledge of personal computers. If you are not
sure about any description in this booklet, please consult your vendor before
further handling.
1.1 The Product
EmETX-i2304 needs another carrier board, PBE-
1000, to work with to deliver best performance. The I/O
cabling from boards to chassis, or the daughter boards
are not needed. Money spent on these parts can be
saved. Cost is substantially reduced.
Enabling easier system upgrade, EmETX-i2304
actually reduces the risk resulted from previous wrong assessment of
system performance. It decreases design requirements and eases technical
complexity, and therefore reduces business risk. It has these features:
• Fanless Design
• Soldered Onboard Intel® Atom™ E3800 Family CPU
• Support LVDS, Analog RGB and DDI Port
• Integrated 10/100base-T Ethernet
• Extended Operating Temp.: -20 ~ 70ºC
• Wide Range Operating Temp.:-40°C ~ 85ºC (-40°F ~ 185ºF, WT
series)
