Chapter 2
Hardware Configuration
This chapter gives the definitions and shows the positions of jumpers, headers and
connectors. All of the configuration jumpers on WADE-8021 are in the proper
position. The default settings shipped from factory are marked with an asterisk ().
2.1 Jumper Setting
In general, jumpers on the single board computer are used to select options for
certain features. Some of the jumpers are designed to be user-configurable, allowing
for system enhancement. The others are for testing purpose only and should not be
altered. To select any option, cover the jumper cap over (SHORT) or remove (NC) it
from the jumper pins according to the following instructions. Here NC stands for
“Not Connect”.

Chapter 3
System Installation
This chapter provides instructions to set up your system. The additional information
is enclosed to help you handle Watch Dog Timer (WDT) with operation of GPIO in
software programming.
3.1 Intel® Socket P 32 nm (988 Pin) Processor
Installing Intel Socket P CPU on actuator (for 32nm 988 Pin Processor)
1) Make sure to loosen the latch of actuator at correctly position (Open).
2) Align the processor pins with pinholes on the socket. Make sure that the notched
corner or dot mark (pin 1) of the CPU corresponds to the socket’s bevel end. Then
press the CPU gently until it fits into place. If this operation is not easy or smooth,
don’t do it forcibly. You need to check and rebuild the CPU pin uniformly.
3) Turn the latch of actuator to lock processor chip into the socket once CPU fits.
