    Chapter AMI BIOS Setup This chapter describes how to configure the AMI BIOS.
  • Page 24: Introduction

    Introduction The AMI BIOS has been customized and integrated into many industrial and embed- ded motherboards for decades. This section describes the BIOS which has been specifically adapted to the MIC-3329. With the AMI BIOS Setup Utility, you can mod- ify BIOS settings and control the special features of the MIC-3329.
  • Page 25: Bios Setup

    BIOS Setup The MIC-3329 Series system has AMI BIOS built in, with a CMOS SETUP utility that allows users to configure required settings or to activate certain system features. The CMOS SETUP saves the configuration in the CMOS RAM of the motherboard. When the power is turned off, the battery on the board supplies the necessary power to pre- serve the CMOS RAM.
