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 handle the product to ensure
harmlessly discharge 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
COMPONENTS WITHOUT ALL NECESSARY ANTI-STATIC
PROTECTIONS.

General Description
HS-6254 HS-6654
The HS-6254/HS-6654 is a VIA CX700(M) chipset-based board
designed. The HS-6254/HS-6654 is an ideal all-in-one single board
computer. Additional features include an enhanced I/O with CF,
CRT/LVDS, dual LAN, audio, SATA, 4 COM, USB2.0, and PC/104
interfaces.
Its onboard ATA/33/66/100 to IDE drive interface architecture allows
the HS-6254/HS-6654 to support data transfers of 33, 66 or
100MB/sec. to one IDE drive connection. Designed with the VIA
CX700(M), the board supports VIA V4 Eden 1GHz CPU.
The VIA CX700(M) with 32/64/128MB shared main memory supporting
CRT/Panel displays up to 1920 x 1440. It also supports 24-bit
single/dual-channel LVDS interface supporting up to 1600 x 1200.
System memory is also sufficient with the one SO-DDRII socket that
can support up to 1G.
Additional onboard connectors include five USB2.0 ports providing
faster data transmission. And two external RJ-45 connectors for
10/100 Based Ethernet use.
To ensure the reliability in an unmanned or standalone system, the
watchdog timer (WDT) onboard HS-6254/HS-6654 is designed with
software that does not need the arithmetical functions of a real-time
clock chip. If any program causes unexpected halts to the system, the
onboard WDT will automatically reset the CPU or generate an interrupt
to resolve such condition.

Unpacking
2.1 Opening the Delivery Package
The HS-6254/HS-6654 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. Examine all integrated circuits, particularly the BIOS,
processor, memory modules, ROM-Disk, and keyboard controller chip
to ensure that they are firmly seated. The HS-6254/HS-6654 delivery
package contains the following items:
 HS-6254/HS-6654 Board x 1

NOTE: LVDS cable should be produced very carefully. Y0- & Y0+ have to
be fabricated in twister pair (Y1- & Y1+, Y2- & Y2+ and so on)
otherwise the signal won’t be stable. Please set the proper voltage
of your panel using JP10 before proceeding on installing it.
NOTE: If use CN9 only, it just supports 24-bit single channel LVDS panel;
If you want to use 48-bit dual channel LVDS panel, please use CN9
and CN10 combined.
