1.1 Introduction  
The IPPC-9151 seriesof industrial panel PCs is especially designed to fit  
in space-limited environments where expansion is restricted. Its solid  
structure enables systems to operate under harsh industrial conditions.  
Sturdy structure  
The whole system is protected by a firm solid structure. The front panel is  
made of sturdy aluminum and has strengthened glass. It is shock resistant,  
and complies with NEMA4/IP65. The stainless steel case (SUS304) on  
the rear side is rugged and corrosion resistant, and enables the system to  
operate reliably in even the harshest of environments.  
Easy maintenance  
A back door with lock is located right above the motherboard. Thus users  
can easily maintain the CPU, HDD, SDRAM and CD-ROM drive. Jump-  
ers can be easily set without removing a single screw. The lock protects  
the system from intruders.  
Economical  
The PCM-9683 motherboard has Socket 478 architecture. It supports  
Pentium 4 up to 2.8 GHz and Celeron up to 2.4 GHz. Socket 478 is an  
economical yet powerful system. Its reliability enables the system to  
operate faultlessly in industrial environments.  
Friendly HMI  
Systems in the IPPC-9151 series are equipped with a 15" LCD screen,  
which provides high resolution display quality. The result is vivid, bright,  
and sharp quality images. The panel PC is perfectly suited for Windows  
OS. The touschscreen version enables simple operation, making the Panel  
PC a solid industrial digital controller interface. In addtion, the rugged  
design of the IPPC-9151 series offers 3 front panel options with alumi-  
num/stainless/flat-seal for various requirements.

3.1 Jumpers and Connectors  
3.1.1 Setting jumpers  
You can configure your panel PC to match the needs of your application  
by setting jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electrical switch. It  
consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a  
plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a  
jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” a jumper you  
remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2,  
and 3. In this case, you would connect either pins 1 and 2 or pins 2 and 3.

application, contact your local distributor or sales representative before  
you make any changes.

Chapter 10 Award BIOS Setup  
10.1 Award BIOS Setup  
The IPPC-9151 comes with an Award BIOS chip that contains the ROM  
setup for your system. This chip serves as an interface between the pro-  
cessor and the rest of the mainboard's components. This chapter explains  
the information contained in the setup program and tells you how to mod-  
ify the settings according to your system configuration. Some setup items  
will not be explained, because it is recommended that users do not change  
such items.  
Note:  
Values for the various setup items that appear on  
your own screen (including default values) may  
not be the same as the values shown on the  
screen figures in this chapter. This is because  
the BIOS is revised and updated from time to  
time. If in doubt, check Advantech's website for  
the latest BIOS versions and related information.  
10.2 CMOS Setup Utility  
A setup program, built into the system BIOS, is stored in the CMOS  
RAM that allows the configuration settings to be changed. This program  
is executed when the user changes the system configuration; when the  
user changes the system backup battery; or when the system detects a  
configuration error and asks the user to run the setup program. At power-  
on RAM testing, the message "Press DEL to enter Setup" appears. After  
pressing the "DEL" key, the CMOS setup utility screen will appear as  
shown in followings. Use the arrow keys to select and press "Enter" to  
run the selected program.

Virus Warning  
When enabled, you receive a warning message if a program (specifically,  
a virus) attempts to write to the boot sector or the partition table of the  
hard disk drive.  
You should then run an antivirus program. Keep in mind that this feature  
protects only the boot sector, not the entire hard drive.  
Note:  
Many disk diagnostic programs that access the boot  
sector table can trigger the virus warning message. If  
you plan to run such a program, we recommend that  
you disable the virus warning.

CPU Internal Cache/External Cache  
Cache memory is additional memory that is much faster than conven-  
tional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type up contain internal  
cache memory, and most, but not all, modern PCs have additional (exter-  
nal) cache memory. When the CPU requests data, the system transfers the  
requested data from the main DRAM into cache memory, for faster  
access by the CPU.  
CPU L2 Cache ECC Checking  
When you select Enabled, it will speed up memory checking when the

they have 40 or 80 tracks. Only 360-KB floppy drives have 40 tracks;  
drives with 270KB, 1.2MB, and 1.44MB capacity all have 80 tracks.  
Because very few modern PCs have 40-track floppy drives, we recom-  
mend that you set this field to disabled to save time.  
Boot Up NumLock Status  
Toggle between On or Off to control the state of the NumLock key when  
the system boots. If On, the numeric keypad is in numeric mode. If off,  
the numeric keypad is in cursor control mode.

each mode (except the hard drive).  
• HDD Power Down: When enabled and after the set time of system  
inactivity, the hard disk drive will be powered down while all other  
devices remain active.  
• Suspend Mode: After the selected period of system inactivity, the  
chipset enters a hardware suspend mode, stopping the CPU clock and  
possibly causing other system devices to enter power management  
modes.  
• Doze Mode: After the selected period of system inactivity, the CPU  
clock runs at slower speed while all other devices still operate at full  
speed.

• IRQ Activity Monitoring: The following is a list of IRQ’s (Interrupt  
Requests), which can be exempted much as the COM ports and LPT  
ports above can. When an I/O device wants to gain the attention of the  
operating system, it signals this by causing an IRQ to occur. When the  
operating system is ready to respond to the request, it interrupts itself  
and performs the service. When set On, activity will neither prevent the  
system from going into a power management mode nor awaken it.

slots and turns off system clock generator pulses against empty slots.  
Spread Spectrum  
When the system clock generator pulses, the extreme values of the pulse  
generate excess EMI. Enabling pulse spectrum spread modulation  
changes the extreme values from spikes to flat curves, thus reducing EMI.  
This benefit may in some cases be outweighed by problems with timing-  
critical devices, such as a clock-sensitive SCSI device.  
10.10 Load Optimized Defaults  
When you press <Enter> on this item, you will get a confirmation dialog  
box with a message similar to:  
“ Load Optimized Defaults (Y/N) ? N ”  
“Y” is for “Yes”, and “N” is for “No”.  
Pressing “Y” loads the BIOS default values that are factor settings for  
optimal performance of system operations.

Note:  
The color LCD display installed in the IPPC is of  
high quality and reliability. However, it may con-  
tain a few defective pixels which may not always  
illuminate. With current technology, it is impossi-  
ble to completely eliminate defective pixels.  
Advantech is actively working to improve this  
technology.
