  • Page 5: Preface

    With proper installation and maintenance, your board will provide years of high performance and trouble free operation. This manual provides a detailed explanation into the installation and use of the C23AX industrial embedded motherboard. It is written for the novice PC user installer.

  • Page 6: Safety Precautions Warning

    Safety Precautions Warning! Static Electricity Warning! The C23AX motherboard has been designed as rugged as possible but can still be damaged if jarred sharply or struck. Handle the motherboard with care. It contains delicate electronic circuits that can be damaged or weakened by static electricity. Before removing the board from its protective packaging, it is strongly recommended that you use a grounding wrist strap.

  • Page 7: Chapter 1 Technical Specifications

    The C23A is a long-life industrial motherboard with multi-core processor technology and PCI Express 2.0 and 3.0 support. Powered by the Intel® C236 chipset (Skylake), the C23AX motherboard was designed specifically for embedded applications such as Medical, Security, Imaging, Industrial Automation, and Manufacturing that require a smaller, compact footprint with ECC memory support.

  • Page 17: Setting The Jumpers

    Jumpers or headers are small pins attached to the system board. Covering two pins with a shunt closes the connection between them. The C23AX examines these jumpers to determine specific configuration information. There are two different categories of jumpers on the C23AX.

  • Page 68: Appendix Cefi Bios And Post Codes

    Appendix C EFI BIOS and POST Codes The status code, or POST code, is used to indicate progress during the boot phase. A subset of these status codes, also known as checkpoints, indicates common phases of the boot process. Checkpoints are very useful to determine the cause of a failure or problem during the pre-boot process.
