VBIOS Update

For thermal considerations, the engine clock of the cPCI-R6700
can be changed by applying a VBIOS update. ADLINK provides
four VBIOS options (100, 300, 400, 600 MHz) for users to set the
best performance and thermal combination for their application.
The VBIOS updates can be found on the All-In-One DVD at
X:XMC\cPCI-R6700\VBIOS, or downloaded from the ADLINK
website (http://www.adlinktech.com).

Follow the steps below to update the VBIOS.

1. Create a DOS bootable USB flash drive.

2. Extract the contents of the R6700_VBIOS.zip file

located in X:\cPCI-R6700\VBIOS on the All-In-One DVD
or downloaded from the ADLINK website.

3. Copy the files inside the R6700_VBIOS folder to the

root directory of USB flash drive.

4. Boot the system from the USB flash drive.

5. Type the command "xxx" (without the "...") from the root

directory to update the VBIOS, where "xxx" is the
desired engine clock frequency (e.g. “100”, “300”, “400”,
“600”).

NOTE:

NOTE:

The graphics driver must be installed before applying any
VBIOS updates.
