Chapter 3. BIOS Setup
The single board computer uses the Award BIOS for the system configuration.
The Award BIOS in the single board computer is a customized version of the
industrial standard BIOS for IBM PC AT-compatible computers. It supports
Intel x86 and compatible CPU architecture based processors and computers.
The BIOS provides critical low-level support for the system central processing,
memory and I/O sub-systems.
The BIOS setup program of the single board computer let the customers
modify the basic configuration setting. The settings are stored in a dedicated
battery-backed memory, NVRAM, retains the information when the power is
turned off. If the battery runs out of the power, then the settings of BIOS will
come back to the default setting.
The BIOS section of the manual is subject to change without notice and is
provided here for reference purpose only. The settings and configurations of
the BIOS are current at the time of print, and therefore they may not be
exactly the same as that displayed on your screen.
