Safety Instructions
Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static electricity.
To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the
following precautions:
 Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static
packaging until you are ready to install them.
 Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion
of the system unit chassis for a few seconds. This helps to discharge any
static electricity on your body.
 Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component
stores, when handling boards and components. Fasten the ALLIGATOR
clip of the strap to the end of the shielded wire lead from a grounded
object. Please wear and connect the strap before handling the HS-1746
to protect yourself from the discharge of any static electricity through the
strap.
 Please use an anti-static pad when putting down any components or
parts or tools outside the computer. You may also use an anti-static bag
instead of the pad. Please inquire from your local supplier for additional
assistance in finding the necessary anti-static gadgets.
NOTE: DO NOT TOUCH THE BOARD OR ANY OTHER SENSITIVE
COMPONENT WITHOUT ALL NECESSARY ANTI-STATIC
PROTECTION.

General Description
The HS-1746 is an Intel®855GME GMCH/ICH4 chipset-based board
designed mITX board. Intel®Pentium®M/Celeron®M processor
1.3~2.0GHz compatibility. The combination of these features makes
the HS-1746 an ideal all-in-one industrial mITX board. Additional
features include an enhanced I/O with CRT/LVDS Panel, dual Giga
LAN, audio, COM, IrDA and USB2.0 port interface.
Its onboard ATA/33/66/100 connected to IDE drive interface
architecture allows the HS-1746 to support data transfers of 33, 66 or
100MB/sec. for each IDE drive connection. Designed with the Intel®
855GME GMCH/ICH4 core logic chipset, the board supports all Intel®
Pentium®M/Celeron®M processor 1.3~2.0GHz. The display controller
is Intel®855GME for CRT display, supporting up to 1600 x 1200 UXGA.
HS-1746 also provides 18-bit single channel/36-bit dual channel LVDS
Panel display interface.
System memory is also sufficient with the one DIMM socket that can
support up to 1GB. It also provides one standard PCI slot.

2
Additional onboard connectors include two internal and four external
USB2.0 ports providing faster data transmission, and two external
RJ-45 connectors for use of two 10/100/1000 Base-TX Ethernet
interfaces.

Unpacking
2.1 Opening the Delivery Package
The HS-1746 is packed in an anti-static bag. The board has
components that are easily damaged by static electricity. Do not
remove the anti-static wrapping until proper precautions have been
taken. Safety Instructions in front of this manual describe anti-static
precautions and procedures.
2.2 Inspection
After unpacking the board, place it on a raised surface and carefully
inspect the board for any damage that might have occurred during
shipment. Ground the board and exercise extreme care to prevent
damage to the board from static electricity.
Integrated circuits will sometimes come out of their sockets during
shipment. Make sure all integrated circuits, particularly the BIOS,
processor, memory modules, ROM-Disk, and keyboard controller chip
are firmly seated. The HS-1746 delivery package contains the following
items:

HS-1746 Board x 1
 Utility CD Disk x 1
