6.8.2
Power Loss Control
The cBC has full control of the power-up of the SBC and therefore can be used to specify the behavior of the system after an AC power loss
condition. Supported modes are “Always On”, “Remain Off” and “Last State”.
6.8.3
Board Information
The cBC provides a rich data-set of manufacturing and board information such as serial number, EAN number, hardware and firmware revisions,
and so on. It also keeps track of dynamically changing data like runtime meter and boot counter.
6.9
Embedded BIOS
The conga-IC175 is equipped with congatec Embedded BIOS, which is based on American Megatrends Inc. Aptio UEFI firmware. The BIOS
provides the features described below:
6.9.1
OEM Default Settings and OEM BIOS Logo
This feature allows system designers to create and store their own default configuration and BIOS logo (splash screen) within the BIOS flash
device. Customized BIOS development by congatec for these changes is no longer necessary because customers can easily do these changes
by themselves using the congatec system utility CGUTIL.
6.9.2
OEM BIOS Code
With the congatec embedded BIOS it is even possible for system designers to add their own code to the BIOS POST process. Except for
custom specific code, this feature can also be used to support Window 7 SLIC table, verb tables for HDA codecs, rare graphic modes and
Super I/O controllers.
For more information about customizing the congatec embedded BIOS, refer to the congatec system utility user’s guide (CGUTLm1x.pdf) and
