52 CommPlete Series 4000 Server SBC, Model IPC-623C
Award BIOS Setup
Time:
< Hour >, < Minute >, and < Second >. Use 24 hour clock
format, i.e., for “p.m.” numbers, add 12 to the hour. For
example, 4: 30 p.m. should be expressed as 16:30:00.
Drives: Primary Master/Slave & Secondary Master/
Slave
In general, the IPC-623C can handle four disk drives: a primary
master, a primary slave, a secondary master, and a secondary
slave. The hard drive shipped with the CommPlete 4000 will be
a “Primary Master” drive designated as Drive C. An IDE
CDROM may optionally function as a Primary Slave drive and
be designated as Drive D. The “type” and “mode” settings for
the primary master and the primary slave drives should, in most
cases, be AUTO. The default configuration state for the
secondary master/slave is DISABLED.
When this field of the Standard CMOS Setup screen is set to
AUTO, the IPC-623C will automatically detect the hard drive(s)
in the system. The IPC-623C can auto-detect 45 specific drive
types ( designated 1-45 in this field).
The drive type can also be entered manually. If entered
manually, the drive in use must match the type entered in this
field. If the drive being used is not of the type specified in this
field, it will not work properly in the CommPlete 4000. For drives
not on the list of 45 types, a user-defined drive can also be
specified in this field (as type “User”). When “User” is selected
for this field, the operator must specify the parameters of the
hard drive (number of cylinders, heads, etc.). This information
should be provided in the documentation for the hard drive unit
(this information is often specified on the exterior of the hard
drive unit, as well).
Note: If your IPC-623C has trouble detecting your hard drive when the
Type field in the Standard CMOS Setup screen is set to AUTO, then you
should enable the IDE HDD Auto Detection function in the CMOS Setup
Utility screen. If the hard drive is still not detected, designate the Type as
User and enter the hard-drive values into the Standard CMOS Setup screen
