The BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) firmware comes pre-installed on the SBC-APL-350. The AMI
UEFI BIOS is a non-volatile firmware used to perform hardware initialization during the booting process
and provides a basic level of communication between the processor and peripherals. The BIOS setup
program includes menus for configuring settings and enabling features of the SBC-APL-350.
