The front power button can be used to turn on and off the system. The power button is a momentary contact button with a blue LED backlight used to display the status of the system. A solid blue light indicates that the system is powered in the S0 state. The LED is off in S4 and deeper states.

The ML100G-56 supports an optional Isolated Digital I/O add-in card (OnLogic ADP120 DIO). This option allows for interfacing with digital logic applications. For a complete explanation of features, operating voltages, and safety information, please refer to the DIO expansion manual below:

The LAN ports on ML100G-56 support up to 2.5Gbps 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.

The serial port supports RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 configurations.

Two M.2 M-Key ports are present on the ML100G-56 motherboard to allow support for M-Key form-factor expansion cards. Form-factors 2242/2280 are supported on the primary slot, and the secondary slot supports 2242 form-factor, both M-Key ports are PCIe Gen 4 x 4. A full pinout table for this expansion slot is provided in Appendix B.

An M.2 E-Key port is present on the ML100G-56 motherboard to allow support for E-Key form-factor wireless expansion cards. Only 2230 form-factor cards are supported. The E-Key connector supports PCIe x1, USB 2.0, and CNVi. A full pinout table for this expansion slot is provided in Appendix B.

The ML100G-56 has two onboard DDR5 SO-DIMM slots with the following specifications:

• Maximum Capacity: DDR5-5600 up to 96GB (48GB per DIMM)

• Channel configuration: Dual Channels

If the BIOS needs to be updated, please refer to the following steps for flashing the EEPROM.

1. Save the BIOS ROM file in an USB thumb drive (FAT32 format)

2. Enter BIOS Setup Utility by pressing F2 or DEL during boot

3. Navigate to Advanced -> Instant Flash

4. Choose the ROM file you’d like to update

The ML100G-56 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.

• Temperature: 50°C soaking for minimum of 2hrs

• Conditions:

  • DC Load 1 Amps on 1x Back Panel USB port

  • DC Load 1 Amps on 1x Front panel USB port

The ML100G-56 with Intel Core Ultra 7 processor 155U operated upwards of 80% of its rated base clock speeds on the CPU cores while sustaining significant processor, memory and storage stress loads in an ambient temperature of 50ºC.

The ML100G-56 has optional Wall Mount brackets (SKU : MTW101) and DIN Rail mounting brackets (SKU : MTW101-K) available for purchase.

For Wall Mounting, follow steps below :

1. Align the four screw holes on the bottom of the system with the respective holes on the mounting brackets.

2. Attach wall mounting brackets (MTW101) to the system using the supplied M3 screws (M3X0.5 Flathead Screw, 4mm Long).

3. Install system to surface using keyhole slots on wall mount brackets and appropriate hardware for the surface (not provided).

For DIN Rail Mounting, follow the below steps:

1. Follow steps 1-2 from the Wall Mounting section.

2. Align the mounting holes of the din clip bracket to the three mounting holes on the wall mount bracket.

3. Install the din clips to the wall mount brackets using supplied screws and a Phillips head screwdriver.

4. Mount system onto the DIN rail.

Note: The mounting brackets are required to support 3x the hanging weight of the system (14.82lbs / 6.72 kgs). The mating surface and hardware must be capable of supporting the same load.

The ML100G-56 has an optional VESA mounting bracket (SKU : MTV100-K) available for purchase. Follow the steps below for mounting.

1. Align the four screw holes on the bottom of the system with the respective holes on the mounting bracket.

2. Attach VESA Mount Plate, to the system using the supplied M3 screws (M3X0.5 Flathead Screw, 4mm Long)

3. Install the system to VESA 75 or VESA 100 mounting pattern using provided VESA Mount screws.

The mounting bracket systems are required to secure 3x the hanging weight of the computer system (14.82lbs / 6.72 kgs). The mating substrate must be capable of maintaining the same rating.

The ML100G can be opened by the user. This does not void the warranty, however, any damage caused by doing so will not be covered.

1. Ensure your body is discharged of any static electricity by touching a grounded metal surface.

2. Remove the 4x phillips screws on the outside of the case.

3. Use the tab for leverage to pull the bottom panel off

1. The internals of the unit can now be accessed

• Enter the system’s BIOS by pressing the DELETE key repeatedly as the system is powering up

• Navigate to Advanced -> Chipset

• Change the “Restore on AC/Power Loss” setting to “Power On”

1. Press F2 upon system booting up to go to the BIOS menu.

2. Go to Advanced > Storage Configuration > VMD Configuration > Enabled

1. Press F10 to save and exit.

2. Press F2 again to boot to BIOS.

3. There will be a new row “Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology” under the Advanced tab.

1. Go to Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology. You will see the drives you’ve slotted in listed under the Non-RAID Physical Disks. Now go to Create RAID Volume.

1. Select RAID 0, check the box for both disks and then click Create Volume.

1. Now, you’ll see 2 drives have been merged into a single RAID volume.

1. Press F10 to save and exit, and start the Windows 11 Pro installation.

1. Browse to the folder where your driver is located.

1. Select Intel RST VMD Managed Controller 09AB and then click Install.

1. Now, you will see both drives have been merged into a single volume and ready for installation!

**Similar steps applied to RAID 1 Configuration.

1. Go to Device Manager > Disk Drives. It will show if your disk is under normal / RAID 0 / RAID 1 volume.

1. Run CrystalDiskMark test to compare the disk performance. The RAID 0 array should show higher sequential read/write speeds compared to a single drive.

2. For RAID 0, removing one of the disks will cause the system to go into bluescreen.

The ML100 can be opened by the user. This does not void the warranty, however, any damage caused by doing so will not be covered. Please see the Internal Access instructions above.
