2-2 How to Set The Jumpers

You can configure your board by setting jumpers. Jumper is consists of two or three metal pins with a
plastic base mounted on the card, and by using a small plastic "cap", Also known as the jumper cap
(with a metal contact inside), you are able to connect the pins.So you can set-up your hardware
configuration by "open" or "close" pins.

The jumper can be combined into sets that called jumper blocks. When the jumpers are all in the
block, you have to put them together to set up the hardware configuration. The figure below shows
how this looks like.

JUMPERS AND CAPS

If a jumper has three pins (for examples, labeled PIN1, PIN2, and PIN3), You can connect PIN1 & PIN2
to create one setting by shorting. You can either connect PIN2 & PIN3 to create another setting. The
same jumper diagrams are applied all through this manual. The figure below shows what the manual
diagrams look and what they represent.

3-8 Watchdog Timer Configuration

The Watch-dog Timer has a programmable time-out ranging from 1 to 255 minutes with one minute
resolution, or 1 to 255 seconds with 1 second resolution. The units of the WDT timeout value are
selected via bit[7] of the WDT_TIMEOUT register, which is located on I/O Port address 0x865h. The
WDT time-out value is set through the WDT_VAL Runtime register, which is located on I/O Port
address 0x866h. Setting the WDT_VAL register to 0x00 disables the WDT function Setting the
WDT_VAL to any other non-zero value will cause the WDT to reload and begin counting down from the
value loaded. Setting the Register located on I/O address 0x867h and 0x868h as 00h to finish timer
configuration.

CHAPTER 4 AWARD BIOS SETUP

4-1 Introduction

This chapter will show you the function of the BIOS in managing the features of your system.
The PLP-P61x Intel® Core 2 Duo/ Core Solo Mini-ATX Motherboard is equipped with the BIOS for
system chipset from Phoenix -Award Software Inc. This page briefly explains the function of the BIOS
in managing the special features of your system. The following pages describe how to use the BIOS
for system chipset Setup menu.

Your application programs (such as word processing, spreadsheets, and games) rely on an
operating system such as DOS or OS/2 to manage such things as keyboard, monitor, disk drives, and
memory.

The operating system relies on the BIOS (Basic Input and Output system), a program stored on a
ROM (Read-only Memory) chip, to initialize and configure your computer's hardware. As the inter­face between the hardware and the operating system, the BIOS enables you to make basic changes
to your system's hardware without having to write a new operating system.

The following diagram illustrates the interlocking relationships between the system hardware, BIOS,
operating system, and application program:

4-2 Entering Setup

When the system is powered on, the BIOS will enter the Power-On Self Test (POST) routines and
the following message will appear on the lower screen:

PRESS <DEL> TO ENTER SETUP, ESC TO SKIP MEMORY TEST

As long as this message is present on the screen you may press the <Del> key (the one that
shares the decimal point at the bottom of the number keypad) to access the Setup program. In a
moment, the main menu of the Award SETUP program will appear on the screen:

You may use the cursor the up/down keys to highlight the individual menu items. As you highlight
each item, a brief description of the highlighted selection will appear at the bottom of the screen.

CMOS Setup screen:

In the above Setup Menu, use the arrow keys to highlight the item and then use the <PgUp> or <PgDn>
keys to select the value you want in each item.

Date:

< Month >, < Date > and <Year >. Ranges for each value are in the CMOS Setup Screen, and the
week-day will skip automatically.

Time:

< Hour >, < Minute >, and < Second >. Use 24 hour clock format, i.e., for PM numbers, add 12 to the
hour. For example: 4: 30 P.M. You should enter the time as 16:30:00.

IDE Primary Master / Slave: IDE Secondary Master / Slave:

The BIOS can automatically detect the specifications and optimal operating

mode of almost all IDE hard drives. When you select type AUTO for a hard drive, the BIOS detect its
specifications during POST, every time system boots.

If you do not want to select drive type AUTO, other methods of selecting drive type are available:

1.Match the specifications of your installed IDE hard drive(s) with the preprogrammed values for hard
drive types 1 through 45.

2.Select USER and enter values into each drive parameter field.

3.Use the IDE HDD AUTO DETECTION function in Setup. Here is a brief explanation of drive specifi­cations:

Type: The BIOS contains a table of pre-defined drive types. Each defined drive type has a
specified number of cylinders, number of heads, write precompensation factor, landing zone, and
number of sectors. Drives whose specifications do not accommodate any predefine type are classi­fied as type USER.

o Size: Disk drive capacity (approximate). Note that this size is usually greater than the size of a
formatted disk given by a disk-checking program.

o Cyls: number of cylinders.

o Head: number of heads.

o Precomp: write precompensation cylinders.

o Landz: landing zone.

o Sector: number of sectors.

o Mode: Auto, Normal, Large or LBA.

Auto: The BIOS automatically determines the optimal mode.

tel:[phone], fax:[phone]

PC6172

17” industrial Core 2 Duo Panel PC

- Normal: Maximum number of cylinders, heads, sectors supported are 1024, 16 and 63.

- Large: For drives that do not support LBA and have more than 1024 cylinders.

- LBA (Logical Block Addressing): During drive accesses, the IDE controller transforms the data
address described by sector, head and cylinder number into a physical block address, signifi­cantly improving data transfer rates. For drives greater than 1024 cylinders.

VIDEO:

This category selects the type of video adapter used for the primary system monitor. Although second­ary monitors are supported, you do not have to select the type in Setup. Available Options are as
follows:

HALT ON:

This category allows user to choose whether the computer will stop if an error is detected during power
up. Available options are "All errors", "No errors", "All, But keyboard", "All, But Diskette", and "All But
Disk/Key".

BASE MEMORY:

Displays the amount of conventional memory detected during boot up.

EXTENDED MEMORY:

Displays the amount of extended memory detected during boot up.

TOTAL MEMORY:

Displays the total memory available in the system.

4-5 Advanced Chipset Features

Choose the ”ADVANCED CHIPSET FEATURES” from the main menu, the screen shown as below.

Phoenix - AwardBIOS CMOS Setup Utility Advanced Chipset Features

Chipset Features Setup Screen

This parameter allows you to configure the system based on the specific features of the installed
chipset. The chipset manages bus speed and access to system memory resources, such as DRAM
and the external cache. It also coordinates communications between conventional ISA bus and the PCI
bus. It must be stated that these items should never need to be altered. The default settings have been
chosen because they provide the best opera- ting conditions for the system. The only time you might
consider making any changes would be if you discovered that data was being lost while using your
system.

DRAM TIMEING SELECTABLE:

The value in this field depends on performance parameters of the installed memory chips (DRAM). Do
not change the value from the factory setting unless you install new memory that has a different perfor­mance rating than the original DRAMs.

CAS LATENCY TIME:

When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS latency depends on the
DRAM timing.
