Warning!
To prevent shorting, premature failure or damage to the lithium battery, do not
place the board on a conductive surface such as metal, black conductive foam or
the outside surface of a metalized ESD protective pouch. The lithium battery may
explode if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble or dispose of in fire. Dispose
of used batteries promptly.
Normal battery voltage should be at least 2.5V. If the voltage drops below 2.5V, contact the
factory for a replacement (part number T-HB3/0-1). The life expectancy under normal use is
approximately seven years.
Note:
The EPM-32 is designed to boot even with a dead or removed battery. See page 25
for further information.

The processor speed can be changed using CMOS Setup. The speed options range from 600 MHz
to 1800 MHz. Reducing the CPU speed will decrease system power consumption and
performance. Extended temperature versions of the board do not allow operation above 1000
MHz.
