    IS18005: Update BIOS Boot Option When Changing
    Compact Flash Card
    INFORMATION SHEET
    1 INTRODUCTION
    The Single Board Computer (SBC) is programmed from the factory to use the boot option
    specific to the compact flash card originally included with it. When changing the flash card to
    another brand (e.g.: from SanDisk to Cactus) you may be required to manually change the
    boot option priorities for the AUI to load properly.

    1.1 Equipment Affected


    This modification affects all NV, GV, NX (NX15 and higher) series transmitters, as well as NXC
    combiners, when changing the brand of compact flash card used in the SBC for the first time.

    1.2 Responsibility for Implementation


    Only qualified station maintenance personnel who are familiar with the affected broadcast
    transmitter series should perform this procedure.

    1.3 Scheduling
    Implement this procedure as needed at the convenience of station maintenance personnel.

    1.4 Manpower Requirements


    Completing this procedure requires approximately 5 minutes.

    1.5 Special Tools/Test Equipment


     USB keyboard

    1.6 Publications Affected


    This procedure does not affect the technical manual set.

    2 PRELIMINARY REQUIREMENTS
    Ensure power to the SBC is disconnected prior to removing or installing any flash cards.
     For NX, NV or NXC this will require unplugging the 4-pin power connector located in
    the upper left corner of the SBC.
     For GV this will require unplugging the dc input cable on the controller module noting
    that it will take the transmitter off-air.

    3 UPDATE BIOS BOOT OPTION

    (a) Plug the keyboard in the USB port of the single board computer or the NAC118*
    controller (GV Series).

    (b) With the replacement flash card inserted, re-apply power to the SBC or the NAC118*
    controller.

    (c) While the SBC is still booting (AUI is still blank), press Delete multiple times until the
    SBC presents an audible “beep” to bring up the BIOS settings.

    (d) Arrow right to the Boot tab to access the “Boot Option Priorities”.

    (e) Verify the “Boot Configuration” settings as follows:

    i. Bootup NumLock State is [On]


    ii. Quiet Boot is [Enabled]
    iii. Launch PXE OpROM is [Disabled]

    (f) Modify the “Boot Option Priorities” so that Boot Option #1 matches the brand of compact
    flash card being installed. If there is more than one Boot Option shown, mark them as
    [Disabled] if necessary. See Figure 1 if inserting a Cactus brand flash card, or Figure 2 if
    inserting a SanDisk brand flash card.

    Figure 1: Example of a Cactus brand compact flash card (Nautel # UB110)

    Figure 2: Example of a SanDisk brand compact flash card (Nautel # UB105)

    NOTE
    Figures shown as examples only. If using a flash card brand not specified above,
    ensure it is selected as Boot Option #1.

    (g) Arrow right to the Save & Exit tab to confirm changes and proceed.

    (h) The procedure is complete.
