A.1 BIOS IntroductionA.1 BIOS Introduction

•BIOS = Basic Input/Output System

•The fundamental purposes of the BIOS are:•Boot the computer by providing a basic set of instructions•Initialize system hardware componentsy p•Perform POST (Power-On Self Test)•Provide set-up program for changing BIOS parameters•Provide low-level routines for the communications between OS and hardware devices•Load the operating system after turning on the computer

So you must set MAC address manually byusing “EEUPDATE exe ”using EEUPDATE.exe.Please check the MAC address first like the following picture.And then getting inside DOS, type“eeupdate –nic=1 –mac=************”p

E. FAQE. FAQ

E. FAQ E. FAQ If we have no CPU card on hand, you can reference the manual to get BIOS picture, and then you can find which BIOS type be used.

There are BIOS upgrade tools for Windows O.S. But we recommend to upgrade BIOS under DOS.

For customized BIOS request, Advantech will help you to modify it.

For AMI BIOS if the ME has updated you have to add “/me”For AMI BIOS, if the ME has updated, you have to add /me commend. For example: V1.xx to 2.xx

#afudos BIOS.bin /p /b /n /x /meAnd the jumper-JME1 have change to “ME update enable” beforeAnd the jumper-JME1 have change to ME update enable before upgrade.
