Frequently Asked Questions - ADLN-IE1 ECS

What CPU does the ADLN-IE1 use?

The ADLN-IE1 features an onboard Intel® Alder Lake-N Series processor (e.g., Intel N200) soldered on the motherboard.

How much memory can I install?

It supports one DDR5-4800 SO-DIMM slot with a maximum capacity of 16 GB.

Can I use both M.2 B key (WWAN) and LAN2 simultaneously?

No. There is a design limitation: when the M.2 B key slot (for 4G/5G module) is occupied, LAN2 becomes disabled. Only one can work at a time.

How do I clear the CMOS?

Use the CLR_CMOS jumper on the board. Move the jumper from pins 1-2 (normal) to pins 2-3 (clear) for a few seconds, then return to 1-2. Ensure the system is powered off before doing this.

What display outputs are available?

The motherboard has 2 HDMI™ ports on the rear I/O and an internal LVDS connector for embedded LCD panels.

How do I update the BIOS?

Download the latest BIOS file and flash utility from the ECS IPC website. Boot from a USB drive, run the EFI utility (e.g., AFUEFIX64.EFI) and specify the BIOS file. Make sure to disable Firmware Write Protect in BIOS before flashing.

What is the maximum resolution supported via HDMI?

The manual details support for various resolutions up to 1920x1080 (and higher for dual-channel LVDS). HDMI should support standard 1080p and likely 4K at lower refresh rates, though not explicitly stated.

How do I configure the COM ports?

In the BIOS under Super IO Configuration, you can enable/disable each serial port and change its mode. COM1 supports RS232/422/485 via the RI1_SEL jumper.

Can I use a SATA hard drive?

Yes. There is one SATA 6Gb/s port (SATA1) and a SATA power header. You can also use an M.2 SSD in the M key slot.

What power supply do I need?

The motherboard accepts DC power input via a 2x2pin 3.0mm header. It also supports ATX/AT power mode via an internal AC_PWR jumper. The exact voltage range is not specified, but typically 12V DC is expected.

Step 2. Connecting Cables and Power Connectors:

a. Connect the SATA hard drive to its SATA cable

b. Connect SATA power connector to the SATA device

c. The 4 pin power cord is fully snapped in with the power connector at the board

Using BIOS

The BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) Setup Utility displays the system's configuration status and provides you options to set system parameters. When you power on the system, BIOS enters the Power-On Self Test (POST) routines, please press or F2 to enter setup. When powering on for the first time, the POST screen may show a "CMOS Settings Wrong" message. Please enter BIOS and choose "Load Default Settings" to reset the default CMOS values. (Changes to system hardware such as different CPU, memories, etc. may also trigger this message.)

The sequence of installation may differ depending on the type of case and devices used.

About the Setup Utility

The computer uses the latest “American Megatrends Inc.” BIOS with support for Windows Plug and Play. The CMOS chip on the motherboard contains the ROM setup instructions for configuring the motherboard BIOS.

The BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) Setup Utility displays the system's configuration status and provides you with options to set system parameters. The parameters are stored in battery-backed-up CMOS RAM that saves this information when the power is turned off. When the system is turned back on, the system is configured with the values you stored in CMOS.

The BIOS Setup Utility enables you to configure:

• Hard drives, diskette drives and peripherals
• Video display type and display options
- Password protection from unauthorized use
• Power Management features

The settings made in the Setup Utility affect how the computer performs. Before using the Setup Utility, ensure that you understand the Setup Utility options.

This chapter provides explanations for Setup Utility options.

The Standard Configuration

A standard configuration has already been set in the Setup Utility. However, we recommend that you read this chapter in case you need to make any changes in the future.

This Setup Utility should be used:

• when changing the system configuration
• when a configuration error is detected and you are prompted to make changes to the Setup Utility
• when making changes to the Power Management configuration
• when changing the password or making other changes to the Security Setup

Entering the Setup Utility

When you power on the system, BIOS enters the Power-On Self Test (POST) routines. POST is a series of built-in diagnostics performed by the BIOS. After the POST routines are completed, the following message appears:

Press DEL to enter SETUP

Using BIOS

When you start the Setup Utility, the main menu appears. The main menu of the Setup Utility displays a list of the options that are available. A highlight indicates which option is currently selected. Use the cursor arrow keys to move the highlight to other options. When an option is highlighted, execute the option by pressing .

Some options lead to pop-up dialog boxes that prompt you to verify that you wish to execute that option. Other options lead to dialog boxes that prompt you for information.

Some options (marked with an icon) lead to submenus that enable you to change the values for the option. Use the cursor arrow keys to scroll through the items in the submenu.

In this manual, default values are enclosed in parenthesis. Submenu items are denoted by an icon.

The default BIOS setting for this motherboard apply for most conditions with optimum performance. We do not suggest users change the default values in the BIOS setup and take no responsibility to any damage caused by changing the BIOS settings.

Updating the BIOS

You can download and install updated BIOS for this motherboard from the manufacturer's Website. New BIOS provides support for new peripherals, improvements in performance, or fixes for known bugs. Install new BIOS as follows:

1 If your motherboard has a BIOS protection jumper, change the setting to allow BIOS flashing.
2 If your motherboard has an item called Firmware Write Protect in Advanced BIOS features, disable it. (Firmware Write Protect prevents BIOS from being overwritten.)
3 Prepare a bootable device or create a bootable system disk. (Refer to Windows online help for information on creating a bootable system disk.)
4 Download the Flash Utility and new BIOS file from the manufacturer's Web site. Copy these files to the bootable device.
5 Turn off your computer and insert the bootable device in your computer. (You might need to run the Setup Utility and change the boot priority items on the Advanced BIOS Features Setup page, to force your computer to boot from the bootable device first.)
6 At the fs0:> prompt, type the Flash Utility program name and the file name of the new BIOS and then press . Example: AFUEFIX64.EFI 040706. ROM
7 When the installation is complete, remove the bootable device from the computer and restart your computer. If your motherboard has a Flash BIOS jumper, reset the jumper to protect the newly installed BIOS from being overwritten. The computer will restart automatically.

This concludes Chapter 3. Refer to the next chapter for information on the trouble shooting with the motherboard.
