  • Page 14: System Memory Allocation

    SF810 Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.4.1 System Memory Allocation The video controller does not have its own memory and makes use of system memory for all its needs. This must be taken into account when the amount of system memory is chosen. When the on-board video controller is not used, it should be disabled completely via BIOS Setup to prevent system memory being allocated to the controller.

  • Page 16: Infra-Red Support

    SF810 Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.9.3 Infra-red Support The SF810 motherboard supports an IrDA compliant infra-red interface via the riser. An IR transceiver must be added such as the Hewlett Packard HSDL-3201 or the HSDL-3610 device. The IR port shares the serial port 2 channel and thus the two ports cannot be used simultaneously. A transfer rate of up to 115kbps is supported.
