Safety Approvals
CE Marking

FCC Class A
 FCC Compliance
This equipment has been tested in compliance with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are meant to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. If not installed and used in
accordance with proper instructions, this equipment might generate or radiate radio frequency
energy and cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following methods:
1. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
2. . Connect the equipment to another outlet of a circuit that doesn’t connect with the receiver.
3. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply with the emission limits.
iii
Safety Precautions
Before getting started, please read the following important safety precautions.
1.
The OPS871-HM series does not come equipped with an operating system. An
operating system must be loaded first before installing any software into the
computer.
2.
Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when installing the internal
components. Use a grounding wrist strap and place all electronic components
in any static-shielded devices. Most electronic components are sensitive to
static electrical charge.
3.
Disconnect the power cord from the OPS871-HM series before any installation.
Be sure both the system and external devices are turned OFF. A sudden surge
of power could ruin sensitive components that the OPS871-HM series must be
properly grounded.
4.
Make sure it is the correct voltage of the power source before connecting the
equipment to the power outlet.
5.
The brightness of the flat panel display will be getting weaker as a result of
frequent usage. However, the operating period varies depending on the
application environment.
6.
The flat panel display is not susceptible to shock or vibration. When assembling
the OPS871-HM series, make sure it is securely installed.
7.
Do not leave this equipment in an uncontrolled environment where the storage
temperature is below 0℃ or above 45℃. It may damage the equipment.
8.
External equipment intended for connection to signal input/out or other
connectors shall comply with relevant UL/IEC standard.
9.
Do not open the back cover of the system. If opening the cover for
maintenance is a must, only a trained technician is allowed to do so. Integrated
circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static electricity. To avoid
damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:
iv

Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of
the system unit chassis for a few seconds. This will help to discharge any
static electricity on your body.

When handling boards and components, wear a wrist -grounding strap,
available from most electronic component s tores.
Scrap Computer Recycling
If the computer equipments need the maintenance or are beyond repair, we strongly
recommended that you should inform your Axiomtek distributor as soon as possible
for the suitable solution. For the computers that are no longer useful or no longer
working well, please contact your Axiomtek distributor for recycling and we will
make the proper arrangement.

INTEL RAPID STORAGE TECHNOLOGY
®
This feature requires that the SATA controller be set to RAID mode via the
system BIOS.
Note
Intel ® Smart Response Technology is an Intel ® Rapid Storage Technology (RST)
caching feature that improves computer system performance. It allows a user to
configure computer systems with an SSD used as cache m emory between the hard
disk drive and system memory. This provides the advantage of having a hard disk
drive (or a RAID volume) for maximum storage capacity while delivering an SSD -like
overall system performance experience.
Intel ® Smart Response Technology
caching is implemented as a single drive letter solution; no additional drive letter is
require for the SSD device used as cache.
System Requirements:
For a system to support Intel Smart Response Technology it must have the following:
1. Intel ® QM77 Express Chipset-based desktop board
2. System BIOS with SATA mode set to RAID
3. Intel Rapid Storage Technology software 10.5 version release or later
4. Single Hard Disk Drive(HDD) or multiple HDD ’s in a single RAID volume.
5. Solid State Drive(SSD) with a minimum capaci ty of 18.6GB
6. Operating system: Microsoft ware Window’s* Vista 32-bit Edition and 64-bit
Edition, Microsoft W indows* 7 32-bit Edition and 64-bit
System Requirements:
Configuration SATA Mode in BIOS Setup
1. Press the F2 during boot up to enter the BIOS setup m enu
2. Go to Configuration > SATA Drives
3. Select the setting for Chipset SATA Mode and change the value to RAID.
4. Press the F10 key to save settings and restart the system.
System Requirements:
5. You may now begin installation of the operating system on the HDD(o r RAID
volume)
6. Install all required device drivers
7. Install the Intel Rapid Storage Technology software version 10.5 or later
Enable Intel Smart Response Technology
The Intel RST software denotes Intel Smart Response Technology as
Accelerate
Note

63
OPS871-HM User’s Manual
8. Run the Intel RST software thought the ALL Programs menu or the task bar icon.
9. Click “Enable acceleration” either under “Status” or “Accelerate”
10. Select the SSD to be used as a cache device.
11. Select the size from the SSD to be allocated for the cache memory.
Any remaining space on the SSD may be used for data storage using the
simple data single-disk RAID 0 volumes that is automatically created.
Note
12. Select the HDD (or RAID volume) to be accelerated. It is highly recommended
to accelerate the system volume or system disk for maximum performance.
13. Select the acceleration mode, and then click “OK”. By default, Enhanced mode
is selected.
Enhanced mode (default) Acceleration optimized for data protection.
