System CMOSThe VXIpc-800 contains a backed-up memory used to store BIOS
defaults and configuration information.
To clear the CMOS contents, simply short the pins of W2 as shown in
Figure 3-12b.
Caution: You should not keep these two pins shorted because the CMOS memory
cannot be sustained when the power is turned off if these two pins are
shorted.
