  • Page 20: Jumper Settings

    1.8.1.1 CMOS and ME clear (JCMOS1) The ASMB-784 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 JCMOS1 to 2-3 closed for just a few seconds, and then move the jumper back to 1-2 closed.
  • Page 21 The ASMB-784 contains a watchdog timer that will reset the CPU. This feature means the ASMB-784 will recover from a software failure or an EMI problem. The JWDT1 jumper settings control the outcome of what the computer will do in the event the watchdog timer is tripped.
