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 3301500
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 3301500 is an Intel®82855GME/ICH4 chipset-based board
designed for PCI Bus PGA 479 Intel®Pentium®M 1.2~1.7GHz CPU
compatibility. These features combine and make the 3301500 an ideal
all-in-one industrial single board computer. Additional features include
and enhanced I/O with CRT/LVDS Panel, Giga LAN, audio and
USB2.0 ports interface.
Its onboard ATA/33/66/100 to IDE drive interface architecture allows
the 3301500 to support data transfers of 33, 66 or 100MB/sec. to each
IDE drive connection. Designed with the Intel®82855GME/ICH4 core
logic chipset, the board supports all PGA 479 Pentium®M CPU series
operating 1.2~1.7GHz. The display controller is Intel®82855GME
supporting CRT display up to 1600 x 1200, and also provides 24-bit
single channel LVDS panel interface.
System memory is also sufficient with one DDR socket that can support
up to 1GB.
Additional onboard connectors include an advanced USB2.0 port
providing faster data transmission, and one RJ-45 connector for
10/100 Base-TX Ethernet use.

Unpacking
2.1 Opening the Delivery Package
The 3301500 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, and keyboard controller chip to ensure
that they are firmly seated. The 3301500 delivery package contains the
following items:
 Board x 1
 Utility CD Disk x 1

ATA/66/100 IDE flat cable
 Parallel flat cable x 1

USB2.0 cable
 ATX power cable

Low Profile Heatsink with Fan
 User’s Manual
