Embedded Controller AEC-6911

1.1 Introduction

The AEC-6911 BOXER α Advanced Embedded Control system continues the BOXER design concept but focuses on the fast expanding Machine Automation market. The AEC-6911 can provide two PCI slots for expansion. Therefore AEC-6911’s expandable function, compact size combined with fanless design and highly efficient heat conduction mechanism can fulfill any rugged technical application in industrial automation, factory control, test instrumentation and safety surveillance.

Low Power Consumption Design

Intel’s

Atom™ N270 1.6GHz processor combined with fanless design and high performance is widely acceptable and dependable in this market. USB 2.0, Ethernet and 4 Serial ports allow communication with diverse devices with a high transfer rate. Furthermore, the AEC-6911 can concurrently support both tiers of expansion interfaces – PCI and PCMCIA. These interfaces are fully integrated within the BOXER series and allow an upgrade to their usefulness. It is a leading-edge thermal and vibration design (up to 55°C operation and 5g rms vibration) and also an innovation for Machine Automation in the IPC industry. AEC-6911 plays a role in connecting all subsystems in common

Embedded Controller AEC-6911

3.1 System Test and Initialization

These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines encounter an error during the tests, you will either hear a few short beeps or see an error message on the screen. There are two kinds of errors: fatal and non-fatal. The system can usually continue the boot up sequence with non-fatal errors. Non-fatal error messages usually appear on the screen along with the following instructions:

Press <F1> to RESUME Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the

boot up sequence.

System configuration verification

These routines check the current system configuration against the values stored in the CMOS memory. If they do not match, the program outputs an error message. You will then need to run the BIOS setup program to set the configuration information in memory.

There are three situations in which you will need to change the CMOS settings:

1. You are starting your system for the first time

2. You have changed the hardware attached to your system

3. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration information has been erased.

The AEC-6911 CMOS memory has an integral lithium battery backup for data retention. However, you will need to replace the complete unit when it finally runs down.

4.1 Installation

Insert the AEC-6911 CD-ROM into the CD-ROM Drive. The Autorun program will run automatically. You also can choose the drivers to install from step 1 to step 4 in order as following instructions.

Step 1 – Install INF Driver

1. Click on the Step 1-INF folder and then double click on the Setup.exe

2. Follow the instructions that the window will show you

3. The system will help you install the driver automatically

Step 2 – Install VGA Driver

2. Double click on the Setup.exe located in each OS folder

3. Follow the instructions that the window shows you

4. The system will help you install the driver automatically

Caution:

In AAEON products with Intel embedded graphics chipset, when system booting before CRT / LCD monitor has disconnected to VGA, it will caus e Intel graphics chipset automatically detected without CRT / LCD connection and set CRT output to disable. Therefore, CRT / LCD screen will go black and never recovered on Windows.

Because it's a limitation on application for Intel em bedded graphics driver under Windows XP. Therefore, there is a simply way to recover CRT / LCD

Watchdog Timer

Appendix A Programming the Watch dog Timer A-1

Embedded Controller AEC-6911

A.1 Programming

AEC-6911 utilizes ITE 8712 chipset as its watchdog timer controller.

Below are the procedures to complete its configuration and the AAEON intial watchdog timer program is also attached based on which you can develop customized program to fit your application.

Configuring Sequence Description

After the hardware reset or power-on reset, the ITE 8712 enters the normal mode with all logical devices disabled except KBC. The initial state (enable bit ) of this logical device (KBC) is determined by the state of pin 121 (DTR1#) at the falling edge of the system reset during power-on reset.

Appendix A Programming the Watch dog Timer A-2

Embedded Controller AEC-6911

There are three steps to complete the configuration setup: (1) Enter the MB PnP Mode; (2) Modify the data of configuration registers; (3) Exit the MB PnP Mode. Undesired result may occur if the MB PnP Mode is not exited normally.

(1) Enter the MB PnP Mode

To enter the MB PnP Mode, four special I/O write operations are to be performed during Wait for Key state. To ensure the initial state of the key-check logic, it is necessary to perform four write opera -tions to the Special Address port (2EH). Two different enter keys are provided to select configuration ports (2Eh/2Fh) of the next step.

(2) Modify the Data of the Registers

All configuration registers can be accessed after entering the MB PnP Mode. Before accessing a selected register, the content of Index 07h must be changed to the LDN to which the register belongs, except some Global registers.

(3) Exit the MB PnP Mode

Set bit 1 of the configure control register (Index=02h) to 1 to exit the MB PnP Mode.

Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer A-3

Embedded Controller AEC-6911

WatchDog Timer Configuration Registers

Configure Control (Index=02h)

This register is write only. Its values are not sticky; that is to say, a hardware reset will automatically clear the bits, and does not require the software to clear them.
