Product Warranty (2 years)

Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be

free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of pur-

chase.

This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by

persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or which have been

subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Advantech assumes no

liability under the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events.

Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of

our customers never need to use our repair service. If an Advantech product is defec-

tive, it will be repaired or replaced at no charge during the warranty period. For out-

of-warranty repairs, you will be billed according to the cost of replacement materials,

service time and freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.

If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:

1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU

speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and software used, etc.) Note

anything abnormal and list any onscreen messages you get when the problem

occurs.

2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product,

and any helpful information readily available.

3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return merchandize

authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us to process your return

more quickly.

4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and Replacement

Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt)

in a shippable container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date

is not eligible for warranty service.

5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and ship it prepaid

to your dealer.

The equipment has been dropped and damaged.

The equipment has obvious signs of breakage.

15. DO NOT LEAVE THIS EQUIPMENT IN AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE THE

STORAGE TEMPERATURE MAY GO BELOW -20° C (-4° F) OR ABOVE 60° C

(140° F). THIS COULD DAMAGE THE EQUIPMENT. THE EQUIPMENT

SHOULD BE IN A CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT.

16. CAUTION: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY

REPLACED. REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE

RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER, DISCARD USED BATTERIES

ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS.

The sound pressure level at the operator's position according to IEC 704-1:1982 is

no more than 70 dB (A).

Safety Precaution - Static Electricity

Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and the products from

damage.

To avoid electrical shock, always disconnect the power from your PC chassis

before you work on it. Don't touch any components on the CPU card or other

cards while the PC is on.

Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. The sudden rush

of power as you connect a jumper or install a card may damage sensitive elec-

tronic components.

1.1 Introduction

SOM-6896 is a new COM Express (PICMG COM.0) R2.1 Compact Module in a Type

6 pin-out module board. SOM-6896 is equipped with the latest 5th generation Intel®

Core™ Processor on a compact size 95x95mm COM Express module, resulting in

low power consumption and excellent CPU and graphics performance. SOM-6896 is

built for use in demanding applications such as medical equipment, automation, and

gaming industries.

Compared with its predecessor, SOM-6896 is designed with the latest 5th generation

Intel® Core™ Processor and supports DirectX 11.1, OpenGL 4.2 and OpenCL 2.0,

and AVC/VC1/MPEG2 codec support. SOM-6896 supports 3 simultaneous displays

(VGA, LVDS, HDMI/DisplayPort/DVI), and HDMI supports up to 4K (4096x2304) @

24Hz resolutions.

SOM-6896 provides flexible IO interface options with up to 3 PCIe x1 to fulfill various

function extension requirements. In addition, SOM-6896 improves thermal perfor-

mance with an added mounting hole designed around the CPU with a stronger board

structure that avoids board bending - designed to improve thermal effect, it offers

excellent connection between the module board and thermal solution.
