EMC-FDM Manual
Configuring the BIOS Setup
The EMC-FDM is electrically an EXM device, and is configured like any other EXM module.
The configuration data in the EPC to which the EMC-FDM is connected needs to be modified
to recognize and enable the module. After installing the module, turn on the system and boot it
up. From the command line, invoke the BIOS setup function by pressing the CTRL-ALT-ESC
keys simultaneously.
Enabling the EMC-FDM Module
Once in the setup function, a menu displays specifying which function keys are available for
further configuration. Press the F2 function key to invoke the EXM Setup Screen. Informa-
tion similar to the screen shown in Figure 1 below displays:

Figure 1: EXM Setup Screen
This screen displays the EXM configuration data (in hexadecimal) stored in nonvolatile memory.
The EPC uses this information at power-up to recognize and configure each installed EXM.
The displayed data shows SLOT, ID, OB1 and OB2 information. These are defined as follows:
SLOT
Indicates the slot in which the EXM is installed. See Figure 2 below to
determine which slot the EXM occupies.
