Introduction
The Relio R5100 dual-core industrial computer is designed for CPU-intensive applications in industrial
environments. Available with a fanless 2.16GHz Intel® Core™2 Duo processor and up to 4GB RAM, the R5100
offers first-class performance and reliability. The system offers a wealth of standard I/O features including dual
Gigabit Ethernet, six USB 2.0 ports, four serial ports, and VGA video. Expansion options include one PCI slot and
one PCI Express X4 slot. The R5100 includes an external power supply and US power cord that accepts 100-240V
AC input and outputs 19VDC @ 90W. A pair of removable brackets allow for versatile mounting to walls, under

Jumper Descriptions & Locations
The R5100 has jumpers on the motherboard for configuring the COM1 serial port and CompactFlash settings. In
rare instances where an incorrect setting is saved in the Setup Utility, you can use a jumper to clear the CMOS
memory.
The jumpers are located on the top side of the motherboard, under the large heat sink on top of the enclosure.
The PCI Express backplane jumper is located on the backplane, which can be accessed under the heat sink.
To access the jumpers, remove the eight (8) screws from the top of the heat sink. Remove the heat sink by lifting
straight up (it may seem hard to remove due to the thermal pads connecting internal heat sinks to external heat
sink). For the COM jumpers located at the corner of the motherboard, removing the side panels and the heat sink
will make access to these jumpers easier.
The jumpers can be found in the following locations.
