      Manual

      User's Guide conga-MCB The conga-MCB is a COM Express™ Type 2 Compact module mini carrier board. It has an industrial 5 pin power connector and therefore can be used as a stand-alone carrier board for the COM Express™ Compact modules. It’s also possible to use the conga-MCB as a small evaluation platform for your battery supported application using COM Express™ Compact modules or it can be directly integrated into an application.

      User's Guide congatec System Utility The intention of the congatec System Utility is to provide a common tool for all congatec COM (Computer on Module) products, which allows you to perform various standard and congatec specific system or BIOS configuration and modification tasks. The utility consists of six main function modules: 1. BIOS Update Module Offers functions to update the system BIOS of a congatec board. 2. Firmware Update Module Offers functions to update the firmware of the congatec board controller. 3. Panel Configuration Module Offers functions to support or ease local flat panel configuration. 4. BIOS Module Modification Module Offers functions to customize a standard congatec system BIOS by adding OEM defined BIOS modules such as boot logos, CMOS default or backup maps and OEM code or data modules. 5. BIOS/Board Information Module Offers functions to easily gather congatec specific BIOS and hardware information 6. BIOS Setup Configuration Module Offers functions to modify the standard BIOS setup menu (only supported for AMIBIOS based products).

      User's Guide CGOS API Certain hardware features found on congatec AG modules are only accessible through the use of a specialized API developed by congatec AG called CGOS API (congatec operating system application program interface). The CGOS library interface provides access to these features in a hardware independent manner when using common 32-bit operating systems. The interface works under any version of Win32, as well as other operating systems. Driver support is provided for the following: Microsoft® Windows® NT Microsoft® Windows® CE Microsoft® Windows® 98 SE Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Microsoft® Windows® XP Microsoft® Windows® XP embedded Linux QNX
