Introduction AIMB-277 is designed with the Intel® Q470E PCH for industrial applications that require both performance computing and enhanced power management capabilities. The motherboard supports Intel desktop Corei9/i7/i5/i3/Pentium/Celeron processors, up to 20 MB SmartCache, and 2 x DDR4 2933MHz SO-DIMM, up to 64 GB. Multiple I/O connectivity of 2 x serial ports, 4 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 + 4 x USB 3.2 Gen 1, 2 x GbE...
Jumpers and Connectors Connectors on the AIMB-277 motherboard link it to devices such as hard disk drives and a keyboard. In addition, the board has a number of jumpers used to configure the system for your application. The tables below list the function of each of the board jumpers and connectors. Later sections in this chapter give instructions on setting jumpers.
1, 2, and 3. In this case you connect either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3. A pair of needle-nose pliers may be useful when set- ting jumpers. AIMB-277 User Manual...
1.8.2 CMOS Clear (JCMOS1) The AIMB-277 motherboard contains a jumper that can erase CMOS data and reset the system BIOS information. Normally this jumper should be set with pins 1-2 closed. If you want to reset the CMOS data, set CMOS1 to 2-3 closed for just a few seconds, and then move the jumper back to 1-2 closed.
System Memory AIMB-277 has two sockets for a 260-pin DDR4 SO-DIMM. These sockets use a 1.2 V unbuffered double data rate synchronous DRAM (DDR SDRAM). DRAM is available in capacities of 4GB, 8GB, 16GB and 32GB. The sockets can take any combination with SODIMMs of any size, giving a total memory size between 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, and up to max 64GB.
LAN1_USB12 + LAN2_USB34, USB56, USB78 The AIMB-277 provides up to eight USB ports. Four USB3.2 Gen2 on the rear side and two pin header on the board. The USB interface complies with USB specification Rev. 2.0 and Rev. 3.0 supporting transmission rates up to 10 Gbps for USB1234, and up to 5Gbps for USB5678.
LVDS Backlight Inverter Power Connector (INV3) 2.12 Serial ATA Interface Connector (SATA1/2/3) AIMB-286EF features a high performance Serial ATA III interface (up to 600 MB/s) which eases hard drive cabling with thin, space-saving cables. SATA3 SATA1 SATA2 Signal AIMB-277 User Manual...

AIMB-277 setup screens. BIOS Setup The AIMB-277 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.
