MOBL-D2 major software features
AMIBIOS BIOS
The MOBL-D2 has an AMIBIOS BIOS optimized for the device and embedded installations.
Boot sequence
The MOBL-D2 can be configured to boot from Compact Flash, a network resource, or from a
USB device such as a floppy drive, hard drive, flash device, or a CD–ROM. A USB or network
boot allows software installation without opening the case.
Configuring and Ordering Your System
Hard Drive Options
The MOBL-D2 uses an optional Compact Flash device or external USB drive(s).
The internal Compact Flash socket looks like a hard drive to the system. This socket accepts
Type I or Type II Compact Flash devices. The Compact Flash feature is CF 3.0 compliant,
DMA capable, and supports true IDE mode. Octagon Systems only recommends industrial
grade, error-correcting Compact Flash of the quality available with the system.
Expansion Options
The MOBL-D2 can be used in a stand-alone mode or expanded through the Mini PCI, Mini
PCI Express (USB functions only) and PCI-104interfaces. Up to two PCI-104cards can be
added.
Operating Systems
Octagon Systems can preinstall some operating systems, including drivers for the standard
features such as digital I/O and COM ports. Octagon Systems has drivers for Windows XPe
and Linux for the standard MOBL-D2 features, as well as for Octagon System expansion
cards.
