BIOS Version 1.04

1- Getting Started

1.1 - Introduction

The UEFI BIOS is a small program which runs when your computer starts and configures its basic functions. That configuration is automatic, and most users will be satisfied with the default configuration. If the default configuration is not sufficient, the BIOS has setup menus which can be used to reconfigure the computer.

The purpose of this manual is to document the function of the BIOS and its available configuration options. The text of this document lists the BIOS menus and options exactly as they appear in the BIOS menus: in the correct order, with the correct default values for this BIOS version. Some options are hidden based on how other options are set and which hardware is detected in the system, so some options may not appear on all systems. Informative screenshots are also provided throughout, but their contents may not exactly match this BIOS version.

1.2 - Navigating the Setup Menu

To access the BIOS setup menu, hold the DEL key on the keyboard while turning on the system. After a few seconds, the BIOS front page menu is shown:

On each menu, the selected option is shown in white, other options are shown in blue, and read-only options are shown in gray. Some menus have multiple screens, which are shown at the top of the screen. The active screen is shown with a gray background and inactive screens are shown with blue backgrounds.

BIOS menus are navigated by pressing keys on the keyboard:

• F1 shows help on available keyboard shortcuts

• ↑/↓ arrow keys select the option above or below the currently-selected option

• →/← arrow keys activate the screen to the right or left of the currently-activated screen

To access the BIOS boot manager, hold the F10 key on the keyboard while turning on the system. After a few seconds, the BIOS boot manager is shown:

To access the Secure Boot Menu, hold the Ctrl+Alt+F4 key on the keyboard while turning on the system. After a few seconds, the Secure Boot menu is shown:

• The system will prompt you to set admin passwords to configure secure boot for the first time.

• Enter the admin password to access the secure boot setting page.

The Error LED is effectively controlled by BIOS based on the following conditions:

Blinking frequencies:

• Slow blinking: 0.5 Hz (Blinks once every two seconds)

• Medium blinking: 1 Hz (Blinks once every second)

• Fast blinking: 4 Hz (Blinks four times every second)

When RTC battery is low, BIOS will display "Warning: Low RTC battery" for 30 seconds during the BIOS POST.

If a BIOS update is interrupted, your system may fail to boot. The system will attempt to recover in two ways:

1. Automatic Recovery

The system will automatically try to restore the original BIOS image.

• Look for the text "Crisis Recovery" on your screen.

• This indicates the repair is in progress.

2. Manual Recovery (USB Method)

If the system keeps rebooting and does not recover automatically, follow these steps:

1. Save a valid BIOS image file onto a USB flash drive.

2. Rename the file to: CL260.bin

3. Insert the USB drive into the computer.

You can enable the Factory Reset Button under Onlogic Feature Configuration of the BIOS setup menu

1. Turn off the system completely.

2. Press and hold the Factory Reset button.

3. While still holding Reset, press the Power button to turn the system on.

4. Wait 5 seconds after the system powers up, then release the Factory Reset button.

The Result:

• All BIOS settings return to default.

• Admin passwords are deleted.

SSD S.M.A.R.T Health Check is enabled by default in the Onlogic Feature Configuration

BIOS will check the SSD health status and display warnings if the status is bad for 30 seconds

• Normal Operation: Once the computer boots to an OS, the BIOS constantly resets a hidden countdown timer to prove the system is still running smoothly.

• If the system freezes ("hangs") and stops working, it fails to reset that timer.

• When the timer runs out (hits zero), it automatically forces the computer to restart to recover from the freeze.

To enable In-Band ECC in the memory configuration page, Intel Trusted Execution Technology must be disabled in the CPU configuration page.

Several options are available on the Main page:

• Platform information: a comprehensive summary of the computer's hardware components and firmware details

• Language: Select which language to display

• System Time: adjust RTC time

• System Date: adjust RTC date

The Advanced menu contains the following options:

• BT

  • Enable/Disable BT module

• WIFI

Enabling Turbo Mode on the CL260 Description By default, Turbo Mode is disabled in the shipping BIOS to prevent total power consumption from exceeding the maximum output of the power adapter, particularly when Power over Ethernet (PoE) is utilized to power external devices.

The LAN Ports on CL260 supports up to 1Gbps link speeds over standard shielded CAT5e or CAT6 cables. The connector is the industry standard RJ45 connector. The LAN link state is shown by the two LEDs enclosed in the port. The description is included below.

When Factory Reset Button is pressed, it resets system BIOS settings back to factory defaults. In order for the factory reset button to be functional it must be enabled in the BIOS setup menu.

The mainboard power is applied to the CL260 platform through a 3-pin terminal block connector (Mating part: Dinkle / OnLogic 0225-0603 or equivalent).

The system is operational from 12V~24V. The maximum rated current of the connector is 15A per pin. Use a wire gauge that is rated for the operational current. Cables should be properly terminated with wire ferrules. Do not use the terminal block with tinned wire ends or solid core wire. See below for the connector pinout which is also indicated on the terminal block mounting panel adjacent to the connector. Installation of DC Mains connection shall only be performed by skilled personnel and in accordance with your local and national electrical code (Example: NEC, CEC).

When using the remote switch connections with the terminal block option, mating power switch cables should be a twisted-pair wire with floating shield to assure proper immunity to EMI/RFI. It is recommended to keep wires at less than 3 meters in length. Switches should be momentary contact type only.

The RTC battery on the CL260 platform is used to maintain the real-time clock for the system. If the RTC battery is low, the Error LED will indicate the error event. The cabled RTC battery should be replaced with an UL listed battery. The battery shall use a ACES 50276-002H or equivelent connector to mate with the on-board connector.

Two Intel Twin Lake Processor options are available for the CL260.

The CL260 platform has the onboard LPDDR5 chips:

• Capacity: 8GB

• Speed: 4800 MT/s

The power consumption of the CL260 system was measured for various system configurations, workloads, and power states at 12V system input voltages. Tests were performed using BurnInTest v10.2 to stress system components. The build configurations and power consumption are listed in the tables below.

*The configurations below are using representative samples of internal devices, the specific components mentioned below may vary from the devices provided by OnLogic. The power consumption for each system configuration is record below

Configuration 1 : N150

Configuration 2 : N250

These DC levels specified are the absolute max values for the pins for function and safety of the system. The protection circuitry allows for brief transient voltages above these levels without the system turning off or being damaged. A transient voltage suppressor on the power input allows momentary excursions above stated limits. For input power consumption and current see Power Consumption

The CL platform supports multiple power states. The wake-up events can be configured in the BIOS. This section describes the supported power management functions and gives information on protection circuitry for power adapters. Low power shutdown is an additional option in the BIOS. See for more information.

120-ohm termination resistor:

For RS-422 and RS-485, the internal 120Ω termination resistor is enabled by default.

RS-485 Built-in biasing/fail-safe:

The transceiver supports enhanced fail-safe operation and does not require external biasing resistors to maintain a defined receiver state when the bus is idle.

Standard RS-485 biasing:

The transceiver implements an enhanced fail-safe receiver function. When the bus is open, shorted, or idle (un-driven), the receiver output is guaranteed to remain at a logic-high state. Therefore, no external RS-485 biasing resistors are required.
