1.2  Features

1.

Standard ATX form factor with industrial features:

 AIMB-742 

provides industrial features like long product life, reliable operation 
under wide temperature range, watchdog timer, CMOS backup 
functions, etc.

2.

PCI and ISA bus support:

 in addition to the 5 PCI slots, AIMB-

742 provides 2 ISA slots, allowing existing ISA legacy devices to 
be used in modern high performance computing system.

3.

Healthy status monitoring and remote management:

 System 

voltage levels, fan speed, CPU temperature are monitored to ensure 
stable operation.  The remote management interface allows the sys-
tem to be managed through Ethernet when it is connected to the 
SNMP-1000 Remote HTTP/SNMP System Manager.

4.

BIOS CMOS backup and restore:

 When BIOS CMOS setup has 

been completed, data in the CMOS RAM is automatically backed 
up to the Flash ROM. This is particularly useful in harsh environ-
ments which may cause setup data loss such as battery failure. 
Upon such an error occurring, BIOS will check the data, and auto-
matically restore the original data for booting.

5.

Automatically power on after power failure: 

 It is often required 

to have an unattended system come back to operation when power 
resumes after a power failure.  Advantech's industrial motherboard 
allows users to set the system to power on automatically without 
pushing the power on button.
