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.
Depending on the baseboard used, it may be necessary to limit the USB speed of the USB3.1 ports to Gen1 (5Gbit/s). The MB-SMARC-3 is designed for USB3.1 Gen2 with 10Gbit/s, but on other baseboards this speed can cause instability of the USB interface. The USB speed can be limited individually for each USB3.1 port in the UEFI.
1. Boot the system into the BIOS menu
2. Set up 'USB3.1 Portx Speed Selection' option in the UEFI Menu accordingly:
BIOS Frontpage > Setup Utility > Advanced (Tab) > RC Advanced Menu > PCH-IO Configuration > USB Configuration > USB3.1 Portx Speed Selection
3. Decimal numbers from 0 to 15 can be entered in this field. When this number is converted to binary, each bit represents a USB port
To enable Gen2 on all USB-Ports, USB3.1 Portx Speed Selection must be set to 0.
To enable Gen1 on all USB-Ports, USB3.1 Portx Speed Selection must be set to 15.
To limit USB to Gen1 on Port 0 and 2 only, USB3.1 Portx Speed Selection must be set to 5.
