Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of the Captor 370™ industrial single
board computer motherboard. The Captor 370 design was based on the
Intel™ 440BX chipset providing the ideal platform to industrial
applications. The Captor 370 design is based on the Intel Celeron and
PIII processor.
With proper installation and maintenance, your Captor 370 will provide
years of high performance and trouble free operation.
This manual provides a detailed explanation into the installation and
use of the Captor 370 industrial single board computer. This manual is
written for the novice PC user/installer. However, as with any major
computer component installation, previous experience is helpful and
should you not have prior experience, it would be prudent to have
someone assist you in the installation. This manual is broken down into
3 chapters and 6 appendixes.
Chapter 1 - System Board Pre-Configuration
This chapter provides all the necessary information for
installing the Captor 370. Topics discussed include: installing
the CPU, (if necessary), DRAM installation, jumper settings
for CPU and standard I/O. Connecting all the cables from the
system board to the chassis and peripherals.
Chapter 2 - BIOS Configuration
This chapter shows the final step in getting your system
firmware setup.
Chapter 3 - Upgrading
The Captor 370 provides a number of expansion options
including memory. All aspects of the upgrade possibilities are
covered.

Static Electricity Warning!
The Captor 370 has been designed as rugged as possible but can still be
damaged if jarred sharply or struck. Handle the motherboard with care.
The Captor 370 also contains delicate electronic circuits that can be
damaged or weakened by static electricity. Before removing the Captor
370 from its protective packaging, it is strongly recommended that you
use a grounding wrist strap. The grounding strap will safely discharge
any static electricity build up in your body and will avoid damaging the
motherboard. Do not walk across a carpet or linoleum floor with the
bare board in hand.

Chapter 1 Pre-Configuration
This chapter provides all the necessary information for installing the
Captor 370 into a standard PC chassis. Topics discussed include:
installing the CPU (if necessary), DRAM installation, jumper settings
for CPU and standard I/O.
Handling Precautions
The Captor 370 has been designed to be as rugged as possible but it can
be damaged if dropped, jarred sharply or struck. Damage may also
occur by using excessive force in performing certain installation
procedures such as forcing the system board into the chassis or placing
too much torque on a mounting screw.
Take special care when installing or removing the system memory
DIMMs. Never force a DIMM into a socket. Screwdrivers slipping off
a screw and scraping the board can break a trace or component leads,
rendering the board unusable. Always handle the Captor 370 with care.

Static Warning
The Captor 370 contains delicate electronic semiconductors that are
highly sensitive to static electricity. These components, if subjected to a
static electricity discharge, can be weakened thereby reducing the
serviceable life of the system board. BEFORE THE BOARD IS
REMOVED FROM ITS PROTECTIVE ANTISTATIC PACKAGING,

TAKE PROPER PRECAUTIONS! Work on a conductive surface that
is connected to the ground. Before touching any electronic device,
ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal object or, and highly
recommended, use a grounding strap.

Step 1 Setting the Jumpers
Your Captor 370 is equipped with a large number of peripherals and
has the ability to run at a variety of speeds without the need to change
any crystals or oscillators. As such, there is a large number of
configuration jumpers on the board. Taken step by step, setting these
jumpers is easy. We suggest you review each section and follow the
instructions.
Jumper Types
Jumpers are small copper pins attached to the system board. Covering
two pins with a shunt closes the connection between them. The Captor
370 examines these jumpers to determine specific configuration
information. There are three different categories of jumpers on the
Captor 370.
A. Two pin jumpers are used for binary selections such as enable,
disable. Instructions for this type of jumper are open, for no shunt over
the pins or closed, when the shunt covers the pins.
B. Three or four pin jumpers are used for multiple selection.
Instructions for these jumpers will indicate which two pins to cover.
For example: for JPx2-3 the shunt will be covering pins 2 and 3
leaving pins 1 and 4 exposed.
C. Grouped jumpers are used when a certain function has multiple
selections. There are two grouped jumpers on the board and careful
attention should be given when setting these jumpers. Instructions for
grouped jumpers are similar to those above.

CMOS Reset
This option is provided as a convenience for those who need to reset
the CMOS registers. It should always be set to "Normal" for standard
operation. If the CMOS needs to be reset, turn off the system, move J1
to 2-3, turn the system on, move jumper to 1-2 and press reset.
