Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord from chassis whenever you work with the hardware. Do not make connections while the power is on. Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by sudden power surges. Only experienced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis. Caution! The computer is provided with a battery-powered real-time clock circuit. There is a danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
1.8.2 CMOS Clear (CMOS1) The AIMB-270 motherboard contains a jumper that can erase CMOS data and reset the system BIOS information. Normally this jumper should be set with pins 1-2 closed. If you want to reset the CMOS data, set CMOS1 to 2-3 closed for just a few seconds, and then move the jumper back to 1-2 closed. This procedure will reset the CMOS to its default setting. Table 1.3: CMOS1 Function Jumper Setting *Keep CMOS data 1-2 closed Clear CMOS data 2-3 closed * Default 1.8.

The sockets can be filled in any combination with SODIMMs of any size, giving a total memory size between 1 GB, 2 GB and 4GB.
Chapter 2 Connecting Peripherals 2
2.1 Introduction You can access most of the connectors from the top of the board as it is being installed in the chassis. If you have a number of cards installed or have a packed chassis, you may need to partially remove the card to make all the connections. 2.2 USB Ports (LAN1_USB12/LAN2_USB34/USB56/ USB78) The AIMB-270 provides up to eight USB ports. The USB interface complies with USB Specification Rev. 2.0 supporting transmission rate up to 480 Mbps and is fuse protected.
Chapter 2 2.3 VGA/DVI Connector (VGA1+DVI1) 4 2 1 5 10 15 1 6 11 The AIMB-270 includes VGA and DVI interface that can drive conventional VGA and DVI displays. VGA1 is a standard 15-pin D-SUB connector commonly used for VGA. DVI1 is DVI-I connector but only for DVI-D single link signals output. Pin assignments for VGA and DVI connector are detailed in Appendix B.
2.4 Serial Ports (COM1~COM6) COM1/COM2 3 4 2 1 AIMB-270 supports six serial ports. COM1 ~ COM6 only support RS-232. These ports can connect to serial devices, such as a mouse or a printer, or to a communications network. The IRQ and address ranges for both ports are fixed. However, if you want to disable the port or change these parameters later, you can do this in the system BIOS setup. Different devices implement the RS-232 standards in different ways.
4 2 1 Two 6-pin mini-DIN connectors (KBMS1) on the motherboard provide connection to a PS/2 keyboard and a PS/2 mouse, respectively. 2.6 CPU Fan Connector (CPU_FAN1) 4 3 3 4 2 2 1 1 If a fan is used, this connector supports cooling fans of 500 mA (6 W) or less. 15 AIMB-270 User Manual Connecting Peripherals 3 Chapter 2 2.
