Ampro Corporation PCI-104 Connecting the Power Supply, Applying Power to the CoreModule

Chapter 1 Setting Up the CoreModule 800

Connecting the Power Supply

12) Connect the Power Supply

•Connect the AT power supply to the power adapter cable connected to J7 on the CoreModule 800.

The available connector mates with the standard power connectors used for hard disk drives on AT or ATX power supplies.

13)	Connect all support devices	• Ensure all of the support devices you have plugged into the
	to the power supply	connectors (except the CRT (VGA) from the CoreModule 800 have
		good power connections to the AT power supply.
14)	Check/Set jumper settings	• Check or set the jumpers on the CoreModule 800 and the I/O Board.
		Refer to Table 1-1 and Figure 1-8 for CoreModule 800 jumper
		settings. Refer to Table B-1 and Figure B-1 for the I/O Board settings.

Applying Power to the CoreModule 800

15) Check/Set the Power Supply	• If the power supply uses auto-ranging operation at 50/60 Hz, skip
Input Voltage	this step.
	• Check the input voltage switch on the power supply located on the
	rear of the supply just below the power connector.
	The input voltage switch typically has two positions: 115 or 230
	volts – 115 volts is typically the default position.
16) Power up the	a. Plug the CRT monitor’s power cord into an AC outlet and turn on
CoreModule 800
	the monitor.
	b. Plug the AT power supply’s power cord into the AC outlet.
	c. Turn the AT power supply’s power switch to On before continuing.
17) Verify the CoreModule 800	• Verify the CoreModule 800 passes POST successfully
powers-up satisfactorily	• If a bootable device, the LAN Boot image, or the desired operating
	system is not loaded on one of the boot devices (floppy drive or CD-
	ROM) prior to power up, you will see an error message Reboot and
	Select proper Boot device, or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot
	device and press a key near the end of the boot process. The boot
	process stops until you intervene, by selecting from:
	♦ Reboot the system and go to Step 18 (Enter BIOS Setup), or
	a. Turn off the power switch on the power supply.
	b. Connect a bootable device to the CoreModule 800, reapply
	power to the system, which reboots the system, and then skip
	to Step 18 or 20.
	NOTE	Ampro does not recommend using a hard disk drive
		with a preinstalled OS from another model computer to
		boot the CoreModule 800. This has proven to cause
		problems or provide unreliable operation. Use a
		bootable device (floppy or CD-ROM) to load the
		desired OS onto the hard drive and then the drivers,
		while attached to the Core Module 800. See Step 20.
