ESD Precautions
Computer boards have integrated circuits sensitive to static electricity. To prevent chipsets
from electrostatic discharge damage, please take care of the following jobs with precautions:

Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging until you are
ready to install them.

Before holding the board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system
unit chassis for a few seconds. It discharges static electricity from your body.

Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component stores, when
handling boards and components.

®
TM
The CAPA841, a 3.5” board, supports Intel Atom E3845/E3827 processors. Meanwhile
®
®
CAPA842, a 3.5’ board, supports Intel Celeron J1900/N2807 processors. Both of them
deliver outstanding system performance through high-bandwidth interfaces, multiple I/O
functions for interactive applications and various embedded computing solutions.
The CAPA841/CAPA842 comes with one 204-pin unbuffered SO-DIMM socket for single
channel DDR3L 1333/1066MHz memory, maximum memory capacity up to 8GB. There are
two Gigabit/Fast Ethernet ports, one SATA port with transfer rate up to 3Gb/s, four USB 2.0
high speed compliant, and built-in HD audio codec that can achieve the best stability and
reliability for industrial applications. Additionally, they provide you with unique embedded
features, such as four serial ports (two RS-232/422/485 and two RS-232) and 3.5” form factor
that applies an extensive array of PC peripherals.

Pin 1 connects anode(+) of LED and pin 5 connects cathode(-) of LED. The power LED
lights up when the system is powered on.
External Speaker and Internal Buzzer
Pin 2, 4, 6 and 8 connect the case-mounted speaker unit or internal buzzer. While
connecting the CPU board to an internal buzzer, please set pin 2 and 4 closed; while
connecting to an external speaker, you need to set pins 2 and 4 opened and connect the
speaker cable to pin 8(+) and pin 2(-).
Power On/Off Button
Pin 9 and 10 connect the power button on front panel to the CPU board, which allows
users to turn on or off power supply.
System Reset Switch
Pin 11 and 12 connect the case-mounted reset switch that reboots your computer
without turning off the power switch. It is a better way to reboot your system for a longer
life of system power supply.
HDD Activity LED
This connection is linked to hard drive activity LED on the control panel. LED flashes
when HDD is being accessed. Pin 13 and 14 connect the hard disk drive to the front

AMI BIOS Setup Utility
The AMI UEFI BIOS provides users with a built-in setup program to modify basic system
configuration. All configured parameters are stored in a flash chip to save the setup information
whenever the power is turned off. This chapter provides users with detailed description about
how to set up basic system configuration through the AMI BIOS setup utility.
4.1
Starting
To enter the setup screens, follow the steps below:
1.
2.
Turn on the computer and press the <Del> key immediately.
After you press the <Del> key, the main BIOS setup menu displays. You can access the
other setup screens from the main BIOS setup menu, such as the Advanced and Chipset
menus.
If your computer cannot boot after making and saving system changes with BIOS
setup, you can restore BIOS optimal defaults by setting JP4 (see section 2.3.4).
Note
It is strongly recommended that you should avoid changing the chipset’s defaults. Both AMI
and your system manufacturer have carefully set up these defaults that provide the best
performance and reliability.
4.2
Navigation Keys
The BIOS setup/utility uses a key-based navigation system called hot keys. Most of the BIOS
setup utility hot keys can be used at any time during the setup navigation process. These keys
include <F1>, <F2>, <Enter>, <ESC>, <Arrow> keys, and so on.
Some of the navigation keys differ from one screen to another.
