BPI

BIOS programming interface

specification, which provides

unified interface for software to

access hardware.

All supporting BPI

motherboards and PCs of EVOC

company

eManager

A platform management

application software developed

based on BPI, which enables

users to check the status of

embedded PCs, keep daily

records, and basic functions

commonly used by embedded

computers, such as WDT, GPIO,

Hardware monitoring, and etc.

All the motherboards/complete

PCs that support BPI can run

eManager, and the sub-functions

depend on the specific

motherboard. For those which

do not support BPI,

customization service can be

provided. (Please consult

customer service for the cost).
