This creates many opportunities for accidental damage during handling, installation and connection to other equipment. The list here describes common causes of failure found on boards returned to Diamond Systems for repair. This information is provided as a source of advice to help you prevent damaging your Diamond (or any vendor‟s) boards.
RS-232 port or one of the Ethernet ports. Wide Power DC/DC Power Supply Epsilon can be powered through a wide voltage +7-36V DC/DC power supply input or a regulated +5VDC input. +5VDC power may also be provided through the PC/104 connector.

Power can be provided through the +7-36VDC wide-range DC power supply built into the board, enabling use with industrial power sources. Epsilon can also be powered from a +5VDC input source, using either the main power connector or an optional connection to the PC/104 bus or PC/104-Plus (PCI) bus.
BOARD OUTLINE AND LAYOUT 4.1 Epsilon Board Drawing The following diagram shows the locations for all connectors and jumpers which are described in the next sections. Figure 2. Epsilon Top (Connectors and Jumpers) www.diamondsystems.com Epsilon User Manual Revision A Page 7...
Jumpers (see Jumper Block (J15) JTAG 5.2 Jumper Block (J15) The following table summarizes the functions of Epsilon‟s jumper block, J15. Refer to the drawing in Section 4 for the locations of J15 on Epsilon. Jumper Function J15 Pins 1&2 Reset: Install jumper to reset the switch 3&4...
6.1 PC/104 Connectors (J1 and J2) - Optional Connectors J1 and J2 are a special order option to provide a passthrough ISA bus which allows Epsilon to be incorporated into a PC/104 stack. Epsilon can also be powered from the ISA bus when these connectors are installed.
Connector J3 is a special order option to supply power via the PCI bus. In the pinout below, the pins are noted as Epsilon pin number / PCI standard pin number. The function are also listed as Epsilon signal/PCI standard signal, with only one name when the function is common (i.e., +5V or ground).
An on-board DC power supply converts the wide range +7-36VDC input, if present, down to +5VDC. 6.7 JTAG (J16) – Factory Use Only This connector provides a scan capability that is for factory use only. www.diamondsystems.com Epsilon User Manual Revision A Page 11...

The web interface offers an alternate user interface to the CLI. The web interface is in-band and requires use of one of the Ethernet ports. This port provides simultaneous web management and normal usage. The same commands with the same functionality can be accessed via either interface.

For the full temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) the recommended solution is the conduction cooling heatspreader plate shown in Figure 3. The plate attaches to Epsilon using the four #4-40 holes in the corner that are also used to attach the board to another PC/104 board. The four #6-32 holes in the plate are used to attach it to the enclosure wall.
Figure 4. The heatsink has a lower profile and is better adapted to removing heat from the board when there is airflow. Figure 4. Epsilon Heatsink www.diamondsystems.com Epsilon User Manual Revision A Page 34...
