Chapter 2 — Installation
Installation Overview
The rugged design of the 1341 unit allows it to be installed in most industrial
environments. The system is generally placed in a NEMA 4/4X/12 enclosure to
protect against contaminants such as dust, and moisture. Metal enclosures also help
minimize the effects of electromagnetic radiation that nearby equipment can generate.
Read the following sections carefully to be sure that you are complying with all the
safety requirements.
1. Select a NEMA rated enclosure and place the unit in a position to allow easy
access to the system ports.
2. Be sure to account for the unit’s depth when choosing the depth of the enclosure.
3. The 1341 unit can be mounted in a vertical or horizontal position.
4. Attach DC power cable from AC Adapter to the power receptacle on the 1341
and the other end to a properly grounded 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz outlet.
5. Turn on power to the system. The system will boot up the installed operating
system.
Additional aspects to take into account when mounting your 1341:
•
••
• Consider locations of accessories such as AC power outlets and lighting (interior
lighting and windows) for installation and maintenance convenience
•
••
• Prevent condensation by installing a thermostat-controlled heater or air
conditioner
•
••
• To allow for maximum cooling, avoid obstructing the airflow
•
••
• Place any fans or blowers close to the heat generating devices. If using a fan,
make sure that outside air is not brought into the enclosure unless a fabric or
other reliable filter is used. This filtration prevents conductive particles and other
harmful contaminants from entering the enclosure.
•
••
• Do not select a location near equipment that generates excessive electromagnetic
interference (EMI) or radio frequency interface (RFI). Examples of these types
of equipment are: high power welding machines; induction heating equipment;
and large motor starters.
•
••
• Place incoming power line devices (such as isolation or constant voltage
transformers, local power disconnects, and surge suppressers) away from the
system. The proper location of incoming line devices keeps power wire runs as
short as possible and minimizes electrical noise transmitted to the unit.
•
••
• Make sure the location does not exceed the unit’s shock, vibration, and
temperature specifications

Chapter 3 – Award BIOS Setup
System Test and Initialization
These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines encounter an error during the tests,
you will either hear a few short beeps or see an error message on the screen. There are two kinds of
errors: fatal and non-fatal. The system can usually continue the boot up sequence with non-fatal errors.
Non-fatal error messages usually appear on the screen along with the following instructions:
Press <F1> to RESUME
Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the boot up sequence.
System configuration verification
These routines check the current system configuration against the values stored in the CMOS
memory. If they do not match, the program outputs an error message. You will then need to run the
BIOS setup program to set the configuration information in memory.
There are three situations in which you will need to change the CMOS settings:
1. You are starting your system for the first time
2. You have changed the hardware attached to your system
3. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration information has been erased.
The 1341 CMOS memory has an integral lithium battery backup for data retention. However, you will
need to replace the complete unit when it finally runs down.
3.2 Award BIOS Setup
Awards BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system
configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-backed CMOS RAM so that it retains the
Setup information when the power is turned off.
Entering Setup
Power on the computer and press <Del> immediately. This will allow you to enter Setup.
