1.2 Features
1. Standard ATX form factor with industrial features: AIMB-742
provides industrial features like long product life, reliable operation
under wide temperature range, watchdog timer, CMOS backup
functions, etc.
2. PCI and ISA bus support: in addition to the 5 PCI slots, AIMB-
742 provides 2 ISA slots, allowing existing ISA legacy devices to
be used in modern high performance computing system.
3. Healthy status monitoring and remote management: System
voltage levels, fan speed, CPU temperature are monitored to ensure
stable operation. The remote management interface allows the sys-
tem to be managed through Ethernet when it is connected to the
SNMP-1000 Remote HTTP/SNMP System Manager.
4. BIOS CMOS backup and restore: When BIOS CMOS setup has
been completed, data in the CMOS RAM is automatically backed
up to the Flash ROM. This is particularly useful in harsh environ-
ments which may cause setup data loss such as battery failure.
Upon such an error occurring, BIOS will check the data, and auto-
matically restore the original data for booting.
5. Automatically power on after power failure: It is often required
to have an unattended system come back to operation when power
resumes after a power failure. Advantech's industrial motherboard
allows users to set the system to power on automatically without
pushing the power on button.
