Power Management Modes
Windows
Your ReVolution will manage power consumption while running the Windows operating system, based on the settings
in Windows Control Panel power options. To maximize battery run-time, be aware of the settings affecting power
consumption. In addition to Control Panel power options, the following items can influence battery run time:
•
•
•
LCD backlight level
Intel Speed Step mode
Wireless network settings
Set the power management properties for your application in Windows Power Options.
If you are running an operating system that does not fully support power management (APM or ACPI), such as
Legacy, you can set basic power management features in BIOS setup. Refer to the “Phoenix BIOS Setup” section
in this document for these settings.

Battery Operations
The right bay battery is the primary battery source and is identified as battery number 1. The left bay battery is the
secondary battery source identified as battery number 2. Using two or more batteries will allow you to swap charged
batteries into the module bays for extended portable operation.
Single battery operation
The ReVolution running on a single battery will deplete battery charge until an alarm level is met then trigger the
action set for that alarm. Set the alarm level and action in Power Options in Windows Control Panel.
Stand-by battery operation
When running the ReVolution with two charged batteries, the secondary battery will be depleted first. The primary
battery will power the ReVolution when the secondary battery is empty, keeping the ReVolution running as a stand-by
battery. Replace the depleted secondary battery with a charged battery to resume powering the ReVolution on the
secondary battery.
Alternate battery operation
Place a battery in either bay and run the ReVolution until a low battery message is displayed. Place a charged battery
in the remaining open bay to continue operation and remove the discharged battery.

Wireless - Bluetooth
Do not operate the ReVolution in areas sensitive to radio
interference, such as airplanes and hospitals. There is no
means to shut off the Bluetooth and WLAN radios installed in the system.
For PAN environments, Bluetooth provides freedom from wired connections. By using this radio-based link,
computers, mobile phones, PDA and other portable handheld devices are able to transmit data to each other or
connect to Internet without a single cable.
While the possibilities are nearly endless for the applications of the technology, some of the current capabilities
include:
•
•
•
•
•
Eliminating the need for wired connections between electronic products and accessories such as a keyboard,
mouse, headsets, printers, other computers;
Exchanging files, business cards, calendar appointments, etc. with groups of Bluetooth users;
Transferring and synchronizing files between devices;
Connecting to localized content services in public areas;
Functioning as remote controls, keys, tickets and e-cash wallets.
The Bluetooth wireless technology and Wireless LAN (802.11b) are complementary technologies. The Bluetooth
wireless technology is designed to replace cables between cell phones, laptops, and other computing and
communication devices within a 10-meter range. Wireless LAN is wireless Ethernet; it provides an extension or
replacement of wired networks for dozens of computing devices.
Issues do arise with the coexistence of both Bluetooth and Wireless LAN. Any time devices are operated in the same
frequency band, there is the potential for interference which results in a lower bandwidth
This device has a maximum range of about 10 meters, depending on the environment. The maximum data transfer
rate is 1.0Mbps. This is a Class 2 device with a typical Tx power of 0 dBm. The operating frequency range is 2.402
GHz to 2.480 GHz with a channel spacing of 1 MHz.

Embedded Controller
The Embedded Controller (EC) in the ReVolution supervises its “power state” by monitoring incoming power levels
and temperature, making decisions for safe operation. The EC also interacts with the system BIOS and informs the
APM manager with power-related messages. When a fault condition occurs, the EC will change the power state and
indicate the fault by flashing a series of codes on the power LED:
Embedded Controller LEDs
Refer to the “ReVolution at a Glance” section for LED locations.
Symbol
Name
NumLock
Battery Indicator
Purpose
Indicates NumLock state. LED is on when NumLock
is active.
Indicates capital letter state. LED is on when Caps
Lock is active.
Indicates battery status
Power
Indicates AC power attached
Hard Disk Drive Activity
Indicates when hard drive is accessed.
LAN Activity
Indicates embedded LAN activity.
Wireless Activity
Future Use
Mail
Future Use
Caps Lock
You must clear the active fault before the EC will continue operation. The EC is continuously on when power is
applied to the ReVolution. It is field-upgradeable.
The EC will perform a power-down override, which forces the ReVolution to turn off, when a user presses the power
on/off button continually for 4 seconds.
Note: The Embedded Controller is active whenever there is a DC power source (external or battery) present, even
with ReVolution power off. If the ReVolution is stored with one battery installed, the EC will discharge a fully charged
battery in approximately 27 days. Kontron recommends that the ReVolution be stored for extended periods with no
battery installed.

Memory Cache
Enabling cache saves time for the CPU by holding data most recently accessed in regular memory (dynamic RAM or
DRAM) in a special storage area of static RAM (SRAM), which is faster. Before accessing regular memory, the CPU
first accesses the cache. If it does not find the data it is looking for there, it accesses regular memory.
Selecting Memory Cache from the Main Menu displays a menu like the one shown here. The actual features
displayed depend on your system's hardware.

I/O Device Configuration Menu
The CPU communicates with external devices such as printers through devices called Input/Output (I/O) ports such
as serial and parallel ports. These I/O devices require the use of system resources such as I/O addresses and
interrupt lines. If these devices are Plug and Play, either the BIOS can allocate the devices during POST, or the
operating system can do it.
If the I/O devices are not Plug and Play, they may require manually setting them in Setup. On some systems, the
chipset manages the communication devices. Other systems have, instead, a separate I/O chip on the motherboard
for configuring and managing these devices.
Many systems allow you to control the configuration settings for the I/O ports.
Select I/O Device Configuration on the Advanced Menu to display this menu and specify how you want to configure
these I/O Devices:
Use the legend keys to make your selections and exit to the Main Menu.
Use the following chart to configure the Input/Output settings:

Boot Menu
Select Boot from the menu bar on the Main Menu.
Use this menu to arrange to specify the priority of the devices from which the BIOS will attempt to boot the Operating
System. The BIOS will attempt first to boot from the CD-ROM drive (the only Removable Device listed). Failing that, it
will attempt to boot from the Primary Master hard disk, and so on down the list.
Removable Devices, Hard Drive, and Network Boot are the generic types of devices on your system from which
you can boot an operating system. You may have more than one device of each type. If so, the generic type is
marked with a plus or minus sign. Use the  key to expand or collapse the devices marked with <+> or <->.
Press  to expand all such devices.
Note: Floppy drives are not managed on this menu as part of Removable Devices. To change a device’s priority on
the list, first select it with the up-or-down arrows, and move it up or down using the <+> and <-> keys. Pressing 
moves a device between the Removable Devices and Hard Drive. Pressing  enables or disables a device.

Exit Menu
Select Exit from the menu bar on the Main Menu.
The following sections describe each of the options on this menu. Note that  does not exit this menu. You must
select one of the items from the menu or menu bar to exit.
Exit Saving Values
After making your selections on the Setup menus, always select either "Exit Saving Value" or "Save Changes." Both
procedures store the selections displayed in the menus in CMOS (short for "battery-backed CMOS RAM") a special
section of memory that stays on after you turn your system off. The next time you boot your computer, the BIOS
configures your system according to the Setup selections stored in CMOS.
After you save your selections, the program displays this message: Values have been saved to CMOS!
Press  to continue
If you attempt to exit without saving, the program asks if you want to save before exiting.
During bootup, PhoenixBIOS attempts to load the values saved in CMOS. If those values cause the system boot to
fail, reboot and press  to enter Setup. In Setup, you can get the Default Values (as described below) or try to
change the selections that caused the boot to fail.
Exit Discarding Changes
Use this option to exit Setup without storing in CMOS any new selections you may have made. The selections
previously in effect remain in effect.

Load Setup Defaults
To display the default values for all the Setup menus, select "Load Setup Defaults" from the Main Menu. The program
displays this message:
ROM Default values have been loaded!
Press  to continue
If, during bootup, the BIOS program detects a problem in the integrity of values stored in CMOS, it displays these
messages:
System CMOS checksum bad - run SETUP
Press  to resume,  to Setup
The CMOS values have been corrupted or modified incorrectly, perhaps by an application program that changes data
stored in CMOS. Press  to resume the boot or  to run Setup with the ROM default
values already loaded into the menus. You can make other changes before saving the values to CMOS.
Discard Changes
If, during a Setup Session, you change your mind about changes you have made and have not yet saved the values
to CMOS, you can restore the values you previously saved to CMOS. Selecting “Discard Changes” on the Exit menu
updates all the selections and displays this message:
CMOS values have been loaded!
Press  to continue
Save Changes
Selecting “Save Changes” saves all the selections without exiting Setup. You can return to the other menus if you
want to review and change your selections.

BIOS Messages
The following is a list of the messages that the BIOS can display. Most of them occur during POST. Some of them
display information about a hardware device, e.g., the amount of memory installed. Others may indicate a problem
with a device, such as the way it has been configured.
Following the list are explanations of the messages and remedies for reported problems. *If your system displays one
of the messages marked below with an asterisk (*), write down the message and contact Kontron Technical Support.
If your system fails after you make changes in the Setup menus, reset the computer, enter Setup and install Setup
defaults or correct the error.
