2.1 Safety Precautions
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your board whenever you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on, because a sudden rush of power can damage sensitive electronic components.
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the board. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis

2.6 Setting Jumpers
You configure your card to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a jumper you connect the pins with the clip.
To “open” a jumper you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2 and 3. In this case you would connect either pins 1 and 2 or 2 and 3.

Open Closed Closed 2-3
A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your
application, contact your local distributor or sales representative before you make any change.
Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most connections.

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 EPIC-9457 Rev.B 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.

3.2 Award BIOS Setup
Awards BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-backed CMOS RAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off.
Entering Setup
Power on the computer and press <Del> immediately. This will allow you to enter Setup.

A.1 Programming
EPIC-9457 Rev.B utilizes ITE 8781 chipset as its watchdog timer controller. Below are the procedures to complete its configuration and the AAEON initial 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 8781 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 Watchdog Timer A-2
Page 44
EPIC Board EPIC-9457 Rev.B
There are three steps to complete the configuration setup: (1) Enter the MB PnP Mode; (2) Modify the data of configuration re gisters; (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 st ate. To ensure the initial state of the key-check logic, it is necessary to p erform four write opera-tio ns 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 Regist ers
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.

WatchDog Ti mer 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.
