Hardware Setup
Installing the Cool LiteRunner-ECO is very straightforward. First, unpack the board observing the usual
electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions.
Caution
Before you touch the board, make sure that you have discharged yourself and your
gear towards a grounded terminal. Damages due to ESD are usually not immediately
visible and will only show up later as failures in the field.
If not already done, mount the module and the cooling device.
Caution
Never operate the Cool LiteRunner-ECO without suitable cooling devices. Failing this
can destroy the module.
Caution
Never connect or disconnect peripherals like hard drives while the board's power
supply is connected and switched on!
Use the cable set provided by LiPPERT to connect the Cool LiteRunner-ECO to a VGA monitor. Connect USB
keyboard and mouse, respectively. Connect a hard drive with a SATA cable (not part of the cable set) to start an
operation system. Make sure that the pins match their counterparts correctly and are not bent! If you plan to use
additional other peripherals, now is the time to connect them, too.
Connect a standard ATX with the adapter cable (art. no 862-0044-10) or a 5 volt, 5.0 A power supply to the power
connector and switch the power on.
Note The 5.0 A
value is the minimum you should have for the standard peripherals
mentioned. If you want to use more and/or others, please plan your power budget
first! The system will not work if there is not enough supply current for all your
devices.
The display shows the BIOS messages. If you want to change the standard BIOS settings, press the <DEL> key to
enter the BIOS menu. See BIOS chapter of the corresponding CoreExpress module for more details.
If you need to load the BIOS default values, the jumper “CMOS” have to be plugged during startup. This forces the
BIOS to load the factory settings from Flash.
The Cool LiteRunner-ECO can boot from CD drives, USB floppy, USB stick, hard disk, or network. Provided any of
these is connected and contains a valid operating system image, the display then shows the boot screen of your
operating system.
Note Not all USB devices are suitable to boot the Cool LiteRunner-ECO. If there are
problems, please try to use another device from another manufacturer.
