2.3 System memory
The motherboard comes with a Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module
(SODIMM) slot designed for DDR3L memory modules.

2.4 Onboard jumpers
1. Clear RTC RAM jumper
The Clear RTC RAM jumper allows you to clear the Real Time Clock (RTC)
RAM in the CMOS, which contains the date, time, system passwords,
and system setup parameters.
To erase the RTC RAM:
1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.
2. Short-circuit pin 1-2 with a metal object or jumper cap for about
5-10 seconds.
3. Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.
4. Hold down the <Del> key during the boot process and enter
BIOS setup to re-enter data.
WARNING! DO NOT remove the jumper cap from its default position
except when clearing the RTC RAM. Removing the jumper cap will
cause system boot failure!
NOTE: If the steps above do not help, remove the onboard button cell
battery and move the jumper again to clear the CMOS RTC RAM data.
After clearing the CMOS, reinstall the button cell battery.

Single Board Computer 19
2. LVDS Panel Power Selection jumper (on selected models)
The LVDS Panel Power jumper allows you to select the voltage for the
LVDS panel.
3. Back Light Power Selection jumper
The Back Light Power Selection jumper allow you to select the voltage
for the LVDS back light module.

20 Single Board Computer
4. Back Light Power Enable jumper
The Back Light Power Enable jumper allows you to congure the power
setting for the panel.
5. HW WDT Enable jumper
A watchdog timer is an electronic timer that is used to detect and
recover from computer malfunctions. The HW WDT (watchdog
timer) Enable jumper allows the HW watchdog resets the system
automatically even when the system crashes.
NOTE: The default setting for this jumper is set to HW WDT enabled
with a jumper cap attached.
