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 HS-4600 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
PROTECTION.

Chapter 1
General Description
The HS-4600 is an embedded little board that features support for
Intel® Pentium®II/III microprocessors. The board design combines
together all necessary input and output factors that make it an ideal
all-in-one industrial single board computer. Its 100MHz FSB
architecture accommodates microprocessors of up to 133MHz FSB. A
special feature bundled with the HS-4600 is its provision for a GPS
system application. The board provides a 20-pin internal I/O connector
for convenient installation of Rockwell’s "Jupiter" Global Positioning
System (GPS) Receiver.
To meet the sound quality required by most sound applications, its ESS
Solo1 3D sound interface/adapter provides the perfect solution. Its IDE
architecture offers DMA33 access of mode 4 to IDE drives, at
33.3MB/sec data transfer rate on all four IDE drives. For easy network
connection, the HS-4600 has a 10/100 Base TX LAN controller to serve
this need. The HS-4600 also deploys a single Flash chip for the system
BIOS. Modifying the Flash BIOS is possible and implemented via the
Utility Update.

Additional onboard connectors include an IrDA port providing a faster
data transmission, a DOS-compatible DiskOnChipsocket with a
maximum capacity of 144MB, a CRT/VGA connector for C&T69000
display controller –compatible CRTs/panels providing up to a maximum of
1280x1024, 256colors resolution, and two DIMM socket up to 512MB. To
ensure the reliability in an unmanned or standalone system, the
Watchdog Timer (WDT) onboard HS-4600 is designed with pure
hardware that does not need the arithmetical functions of a real-time
clock chip. If any program causes unexpected halts to the system, the
onboard Watchdog Timer (WDT) will automatically reset the CPU or
generate an interrupt to resolve such condition.
