1.10. For Your Safety
Your new DIGITAL-LOGIC product was developed and tested carefully to provide all features
necessary to ensure its compliance with electrical safety requirements. It was also designed for a
long, fault-free life. However, this life expectancy can be drastically reduced by improper treatment
during unpacking and installation. Therefore, in the interest of your own safety and for the correct
operation of your new DIGITAL-LOGIC product, please comply with the following guidelines.
Attention!
All work on this device must only be carried out by sufficiently skilled personnel.
Caution, Electric Shock!
Before installing your new DIGITAL-LOGIC product, always ensure that your mains power is
switched off. This applies also to the installation of piggybacks or peripherals. Serious
electrical shock hazards can exist during all installation, repair and maintenance operations
with this product. Therefore, always unplug the power cable and any other cables which
provide external voltage before performing work.
Warning, ESD Sensitive Device!
Electronic boards and their components are sensitive to static electricity. In order to ensure
product integrity at all times, be careful during all handling and examinations of this product.
1.11. RoHS Commitment
DIGITAL-LOGIC AG is committed to develop and produce environmentally friendly products according to the
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive (2002/95/EC) and the Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE) Directive (2002/96/EC) established by the European Union. The RoHS directive was
adopted in February 2003 by the European Union and came into effect on July 1, 2006. It is not a law but a
directive, which restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacturing of various types of
electronic and electrical equipment. It is closely linked with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Directive (WEEE) 2002/96/EC, which has set targets for collection, recycling and recovery of electrical goods
and is part of a legislative initiative to solve the problem of huge amounts of toxic e-waste.
Each European Union member state is adopting its own enforcement and implementation policies using the
directive as a guide. Therefore, there could be as many different versions of the law as there are states in
the EU. Additionally, non-EU countries like China, Japan, or states in the U.S. such as California may have
their own regulations for green products, which are similar, but not identical, to the RoHS directive.
8
DIGITAL-LOGIC AG
SMX945 Condensed Manual V1.0A
RoHS is often referred to as the "lead-free" directive but it restricts the use of the following substances:
ꢀ Lead
ꢀ Mercury
ꢀ Cadmium
ꢀ Chromium VI
ꢀ PBB and PBDE
The maximum allowable concentration of any of the above mentioned substances is 0.1% (except for
Cadmium, which is limited to 0.01%) by weight of homogeneous material. This means that the limits do not
apply to the weight of the finished product, or even to a component but to any single substance that could
(theoretically) be separated mechanically.
1.11.1. RoHS Compatible Product Design
All DIGITAL-LOGIC standard products comply with RoHS legislation.
Since July 1, 2006, there has been a strict adherence to the use of RoHS compliant electronic and
mechanical components during the design-in phase of all DIGITAL-LOGIC standard products.
1.11.2. RoHS Compliant Production Process
DIGITAL-LOGIC selects external suppliers that are capable of producing RoHS compliant devices. These
capabilities are verified by:
1. A confirmation from the supplier indicating that their production processes and resulting devices are
RoHS compliant.
2. If there is any doubt of the RoHS compliancy, the concentration of the previously mentioned
substances in a produced device will be measured. These measurements are carried out by an
accredited laboratory.
1.11.3. WEEE Application
The WEEE directive is closely related to the RoHS directive and applies to the following devices:
ꢀ Large and small household appliances
ꢀ IT equipment
ꢀ Telecommunications equipment (although infrastructure equipment is exempt in some countries)
ꢀ Consumer equipment
ꢀ Lighting equipment – including light bulbs
ꢀ Electronic and electrical tools
ꢀ Toys, leisure and sports equipment
ꢀ Automatic dispensers
It does not apply to fixed industrial plants and tools. The compliance is the responsibility of the company that
brings the product to market, as defined in the directive. Components and sub-assemblies are not subject to
product compliance. In other words, since DIGITAL-LOGIC does not deliver ready-made products to end
users the WEEE directive is not applicable for DIGITAL-LOGIC. Users are nevertheless encouraged to
properly recycle all electronic products that have reached the end of their life cycle.

Since the BIOS is auto-configuring during the start-up procedure, normally the user does not enter the BIOS
setup. Manual setup is needed only to change the default settings. Please refer to the driver/software/BIOS
manual “SMX945_BIOS” printed from the CD for the BIOS setup details.
4.2. Boot Up the Operating System and Install the Drivers
Depending on which boot drive is available, boot up the operating system from the CompactFlash, hard disk,
or floppy disk.
To install the drivers, see the driver/software/BIOS manual “SMX945_BIOS” on the Product CD.
