Page 8: Lpx Form Factor
Advanced/RH. The Advanced/RH LPX form factor does adhere to the standard LPX guidelines in that the outer dimensions are 13” x 9”. Location of the I/O connectors, riser slot, and mounting holes are in strict compliance with the LPX specification. However, if business audio is selected by an OEM, a slight modification to the OEM’s chassis may be necessary to accept the audio jacks on the motherboard. -

CPU. SECOND LEVEL CACHE The Intel 82430HX PCIset supports a second level cache that uses high performance Synchronous Pipeline Burst SRAM. Asynchronous cache is not supported by the 82430HX controller. Pipeline Burst (PB) SRAM provides performance similar to expensive Synchronous Burst SRAMs for only a slight cost premium over slower performing asynchronous SRAMs. -

POWER SUPPLY CONTROL (J9H1,J9K2) When used with a power supply that supports remote power on/off, the Advanced/RH motherboard can turn off the system power via software control (“soft-off”). The Powerman utility supplied for Windows 3.1x allows for soft-off as does the shutdown icon in Windows 95 Start menu. The system BIOS will turn the system power off when it receives the proper APM command from the OS. - Page 17 SPEAKER The external speaker provides error beep code information during the Power-On Self Test if the system cannot use the video interface. If no speakers are plugged into the audio output jack, the audio output is redirected to the external PC speaker. SLEEP / RESUME When Advanced Power Management (APM) is activated in the system BIOS and the operating system’s APM driver is loaded, Sleep mode (Stand-By) can be entered in one of three ways: an optional front panel...

Page 18: Audio Connectors
AUDIO CONNECTORS There are two methods of accessing the audio features on the Advanced/RH. The method installed depends on the audio option that has been selected. For business audio, audio is accessed using audio jacks provided on the motherboard. These two 1/8” jacks supply Line Out, and Mic In connections and are available through the back I/O panel. - Page 19 WAVE TABLE UPGRADE An eight pin header is provided as part of the consumer audio option to connect to a wave table upgrade card for richer sound quality in both DOS and Windows environments. The wave table upgrade module is simply installed into a standard ISA slot with a cable routed to the connector. Compatible wave table upgrade cards are available from several venders;...
