To activate or deactivate eMMC Support apply the following settings:
1. Boot the system into the BIOS menu
2. Set up 'SCS/SCC Configuration' option in the BIOS Menu accordingly:
BIOS Frontpage > Setup Utility > Advanced (Tab) > RC Advanced Menu > PCH-IO Configuration > SCS Configuration > eMMC 5.1 Controller = <Enabled>
3. Press <F10> to save the settings and reboot the system
The module can be configured either on GPIOs or on SD card. The same pins are used for both functions.
Only one function can be used at a time.
Activate SD-Card:
1. Boot the system into the BIOS menu
2. Set up 'SD-Card Controller' option in the BIOS Menu accordingly:
BIOS Frontpage > Setup Utility > Advanced (Tab) > RC Advanced Menu > PCH-IO Configuration > SCS Configuration > eMMC 5.1 Controller = <Enabled> BIOS Frontpage > Setup Utility > Advanced (Tab) > RC Advanced Menu > PCH-IO Configuration > SCS Configuration > SDCard 3.0 Controller = <Enabled>
3. Set up 'GPIO/SD-Card Configuration' option in the BIOS Menu accordingly:
BIOS Frontpage > Setup Utility > Advanced (Tab) > SIO TQMx86 > GPIO/SD-Card configuration = <SD-Card Interface>
4. Press <F10> to save the settings and reboot the system
Activate GPIOs:
1. Boot the system into the BIOS menu
2. Set up 'SD-Card Controller' option in the BIOS Menu accordingly:
BIOS Frontpage > Setup Utility > Advanced (Tab) > RC Advanced Menu > PCH-IO Configuration > SCS Configuration > SDCard 3.0 Controller = <Disabled>
3. Set up 'GPIO/SD-Card Configuration' option in the BIOS Menu accordingly:
BIOS Frontpage > Setup Utility > Advanced (Tab) > SIO TQMx86 > GPIO/SD-Card configuration = <GPIO Interface>
4. Press <F10> to save the settings and reboot the system
To activate or deactivate console redirection apply the following settings:
1. Boot the system into the BIOS menu
2. Set up 'Console Redirection' option in the BIOS Menu accordingly:
BIOS Frontpage > Setup Utility > Advanced (Tab) > Console Redirection > Console Serial Redirect = <Enabled>
3. Select and activate the desired UART port:
COMx > PortEnable = <Enabled>
Press <F10> to save the settings and reboot the system
Now the UEFI interface will be printed on the desired port with the Serial Port settings.
There are several ways to reset the UEFI firmware settings to the default values.
The UEFI settings can be reset by pressing F9 in the UEFI. You have to be in the Setup Utility Page to use this function.
To reset the settings without the display, proceed as follows:
When updating the UEFI firmware, the firmware defaults are loaded and all changes to the settings are lost.
Installing the same firmware resets these settings (e.g. UEFI update under Windows).
Our modules provide a function that allows to reset the UEFI to default values in case of emergency.
For this, the reset button must be pressed three times within one second.
If the module LED blinks red for a short time the reset to defaults was successful.
