ESD Precautions

Computer boards have integrated circuits sensitive to static electricity. To prevent chipsets from

electrostatic discharge damage, please take care of the following jobs with precautions:

◼ Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging until you are

ready to install them.

◼ Before holding the board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system

unit chassis for a few seconds. It discharges static electricity from your body.

◼ Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component stores, when

handling boards and components.

2.5 Jumper and Switch Settings

Jumper is a small component consisting of jumper clip and jumper pins. Install jumper clip on

2 jumper pins to close. And remove jumper clip from 2 jumper pins to open. Below illustration

shows how to set up jumper.

Properly configure jumper and switch settings on the CAPA55R to meet your application

purpose. Below you can find a summary table of jumper, switch and onboard default settings.

Note

Once the default jumper or switch setting needs to be changed, please do it under

power-off condition.

2.5.1 LVDS/eDP Voltage Selection (JP1)

This is a 2x3-pin (pitch=2.0mm) jumper. The board supports voltage selection for flat

panel displays. Use JP1 to set LVDS/eDP connector (CN3/SCN1) VCCM pin to +3.3V,

+5V or +12V voltage level. To prevent hardware damage, before connecting please make

sure that input voltage of the flat panel is correct.

2.5.2 Restore BIOS Optimal Defaults (SW1)

Use SW1 to clear CMOS. Press the tact switch for at least 1 second to restore BIOS

optimal defaults.

2.5.3 Auto Power On (SSW1)

If SSW1 is enabled for power input, the system will be automatically power on without

pressing soft power button. If SSW1 is disabled for power input, it is necessary to

manually press soft power button to power on the system.
