Safety Instructions Do not connect or disconnect any cables or modules to or from any onboard connectors (except for the rear I/O connectors) until the conga-IGX is completely powered down. Any damage caused to the conga-IGX by misuse of the onboard connectors is excluded from the standard warranty. congatec cannot be held liable for any damage that results from incorrect use of any onboard connectors.
System Memory Configuration If you use only one memory module, then you must insert this memory module into slot A (upper slot), otherwise the conga-IGX will not operate. Note The conga-IGX will not operate if memory slot A is empty.
6 in the USB 2.0 specification. USB 3.0: conga-IGX will only support USB 3.0 compliant cables with a maximum length of 16 inches (40.5cm) (internal USB cable to the USB connector type A). The differential characteristic impedance for the SDP pairs is recommended to be within 90 Ω +/- 7 Ω. USB 3.0 cables have eight primary conductors: three twisted signal pairs for USB data paths and a power pair.
Display Options Basic Display Features The graphics engine of the conga-IGX supports maximum 2 independent displays, following combinations are possible: Config# DisplayPort V1.2 LVDS DVI-I (digital) DVI-I (analog VGA) Maximum 3840 x 2160 Maximum 1920 x 1200 Maximum 1920 x 1200...
Note The LVDS tool (DOS-based) allows flashing specific LVDS settings to the system BIOS of the conga-IGX. The LVDS tool needs a panel-specific EDID configuration file based on the specification data of the LVDS panel. Sample configuration EDID files are available in the LVDS Tool kit.
LVDS Cabling Reference congatec does not provide LVDS cables. The user must create their own LVDS cables. Sample cabling diagrams for the following LVDS displays and related inverters are available at www.congatec.com Display Size Pixel Inverter 10.4” NEC NL6448BC33-63D 640x480...
Connector Switch max. 8A “Other Devices” = any device that can be attached to the conga-IGX, such as fans, internal/external USB devices, (Mini-) PCIe controllers, mSATA modules, LVDS display + inverter, drives, GPIO devices etc. Caution Overall conga-IGX input power must never exceed 100W.
The DC power supply input provides a capacitive load of 700µF, which has to be covered by the AC adapter respectively the DC source during power ramp-up. 6.3.2 Limited conga-IGX output current The maximum conga-IGX output power available via (Mini-) PCIe- connector, fan-connectors, USB-connectors, GPI/O, LVDS/backlight connector, and drive power connector is limited. Maximum overall output current for each voltage: • +3.3V / 5A •...
Limited conga-IGX output current: System Keyboard mini PCIe SPDIF FAN 2 The maximum conga-IGX output power available via (Mini-) PCIe- connector, fan-connectors, USB-connectors, Battery GPI/O, LVDS/backlight-connector, and drive power connector is limited. Maximum overall output current for each voltage: PCIe X4 +3.3V 4.5A...
Processor Throttling is enabled @ 108°C and disabled again below 105°C. Above 115°C the processor shuts down the system. The onboard System Monitoring implementation provides a processor Alert above 105°C. Caution Fans must NOT be attached or removed while the system is powered, otherwise the conga-IGX may be damaged. Note Fan1 PWM (4-wire) only! Fan2: PWM (4-wire) or voltage controlled (3-wire) possible.

Power On BIOS POST OS Boot OS running BIOS Boot Watchdog OS Watchdog BOOT-WD-timeout OS-WD-timeout (max. 255 minutes) (according to BIOS Setup) (according to specific WD software agent) OS started.
BIOS Update T o carry out a Flash BIOS Update you must first download the necessary files from the congatec website. The BIOS is installed on a flash memory module. If an error occurs during the flash BIOS update procedure, the BIOS image may be destroyed.
