3.7 Hardware Reset Switch Connector Installation
The RESET switch on your cases' display panel provides users with the
HARDWARE RESET function which is the same as power on/off. The
system will do a cold start after the RESET switch is pushed by the user.
The RESET switch is a 2 pin connector and should be installed on jumper
J46.
3.8 Flash EEPROM-Jumper J9
The S1662 uses flash memory to store BIOS data. It can be updated as new
versions of the BIOS becomes available. The flash utility will guide you
through the process step by step. If your system is functioning properly,
you may want to forego updating your BIOS in the event the new one
causes problems with your existing hardware and software.
J9 determines which type of EEPROM is used. This jumper has been set
to match the on board BIOS chip. The factory default for the S1662 is on
pins 1-2.
Refer to chapter 5 for Flash EEPROM upgrade procedures.
