    2.2 Installation Procedure This chapter explains you the instructions of how to setup your system. 1. Turn off the power supply. 2. Insert the DIMM module (be careful with the orientation). 3. Insert all external cables for hard disk, floppy, keyboard, mouse, USB etc. except for flat panel.
  • Page 24: Main Memory

    ECM-5510 2.2.1 Main Memory ECM-5510 provides one 184-pin SODIMM sockets to support DDR SDRAM. The total maximum memory size is 512 MB. Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both the board and the components.
  • Page 25 • Locate the DIMM slot on the board. • Hold two edges of the DIMM module carefully. Keep away of touching its connectors. • Align the notch key on the module with the rib on the slot. • Firmly press the modules into the slot automatically snaps into the mounting notch. Do not force the DIMM module in with extra force as the DIMM module only fit in one direction.

  • Page 80 ECM-5510 3.5.5.4 IRQ Wakeup Events The VGA, LPT & COM, HDD & FDD, and PCI master are I/O events which can prevent the system from entering a power saving mode or can awaken the system from such a mode. When an I/O device wants to gain the attenetion of the operating system, it signals this by causing an IRQ to occur.
  • Page 81: Pnp / Pci Configuration

    3.5.6 PnP / PCI Configuration This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or Personal Computer Interconnect, is a system which allows I/O devices to operate at speeds nearing the speed the CPU itself uses when communicating with its own special components. This section covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced users should make any changes to the default settings.
