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

2.5 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 Clos ed 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.

Geode’s architecture limitation. The following steps for setup
the resources manually for your reference.
1. Retrieve the resource of the PC/104 card. The
information is typically contained in the manual of the
PC/104 card.
2. Push a function key “Delete” to get into the BIOS.
3. Enable the resource of the device in BIOS setup.
4. Disable the resource of the device for which conflicts
the resource of the device mentioned above in BIOS
setup.
5. Save above BIOS setup and restart system.
6. Install the driver in operating system.
7. Open your Control Panel (click Start, then pick
Settings then Control Panel). Double click the System
icon and choose the Device Manager tab. Find the
device for which you want to enable the device. Click
the plus sign (+) next to the various categories click on
the device you want to update, and then click on
"Resource" and then choose the resource what should
same as the hardware setup.
Note: An APM Mode limitation, OS (Operating System) recognizes serial
port 5 & 6 of GENE-5315 Rev.B but is reverse. OS will reassign IRQ
and give sequence of serial port 5 & 6 after uninstalling all of serial ports
and second time boots in OS.
Note: An APM Mode limitation, OS (Operating System) recognizes serial
port 5 & 6 of GENE-5315 Rev.B but is reverse. OS will reassign IRQ
and give sequence of serial port 5 & 6 after uninstalling all of serial ports
and second time boots in OS.
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 GENE-5315 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 Software Drivers
This chapter describes the operation and installation of the display
drivers supplied on the Supporting CD-ROM that are shipped with
your product. The onboard VGA adapter is based on the AMD LX
VGA Flat Panel/CRT controller. This controller offers a large set of
extended functions and higher resolutions. The purpose of the
enclosed software drivers is to take advantage of the extended
features of the AMD LX VGA Flat Panel/CRT controller.
Hardware Configuration
Some of the high-resolution drivers provided in this package will
work only in certain system configurations. If a driver does not
display correctly, try the following:
1. Change the display controller to CRT-only mode, rather than flat
panel or simultaneous display mode. Some high-resolution
drivers will display correctly only in CRT mode.
2. If a high-resolution mode does not support your system, try to
use a lower-resolution mode. For example, 1024 x 768 mode will
not work on some systems, but 800 x 600 mode supports the
most.

A.1 Programming
GENE-5315 utilizes ITE 8712 chipset as its watchdog timer
controller. ( K version )
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.
Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer A - 2
Page 61
SubCompact Board GENE-5315
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.
Address Port Data Port
87h, 01h, 55h, 55h: 2Eh 2Fh
(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.
