6.1.5 Keyboard versus NUM-Lock
Without a connected keyboard, the NUM-Lock ON field in the BIOS setup must not be activated. Otherwise the time-
out noticeably slows down the reaction speed of the computer as soon as the keyboard is not connected. The PS2
peripherals (KB and MS) are not hot-plug compatible.
6.2 Related Application Notes
Application Notes are available at http://support.kcc-ag.ch/ or on any KCC Application CD.
6.3 High Frequency Radiation (to meet EN55022)
Since the PC/104 CPU modules are very highly integrated embedded computers, peripheral lines are not protected
against radiation from the high frequency spectrum. To meet a typical EN55022 requirement, all peripherals that go
outside of the computer case must be externally filtered.
Typical signals that must be filtered:
Keyboard: KBCLK, KBDATA and VCC
Mouse: MSCLK, MSDATA and VCC
COM1/2/3/4: All serial signals must be filtered
LPT:
All parallel signals must be filtered
CRT: Red, blue, green, hsynch and vsynch must be filtered
Typical signals that must not be filtered, since they are used internally:
IDE: Connected to the hard disk
Floppy: Connected to the floppy
LCD: Connected to the internal LCD
6.3.1 For Peripheral Cables
Use a filtered version for all DSUB connectors. Select the filter specifications carefully. Place the filtered DSUB
connector directly on the front side and be sure that the shielding makes good contact with the case.

25pin DSUB connector from AMPHENOL FCC17B25P 820pF
6.3.2 For Stack-Through Applications
On each peripheral signal line that goes outside the computer case, place a serial inductivity followed by a grounded
capacitor of 100pF to 1000pF. In this case, no filtered connectors are needed. Place the filter directly under or behind
the onboard connector.
