Matrix MXC-4000 Series

User’s Manual

1 Introduction

1.1 Overview

The Matrix MXC-4000 series is a fanless, embedded computer
based on the next generation Intel® Atom™ D510 dual-core pro­cessor to offer greater computing power for your applications. The
MXC-4000 inherits its exceptional fanless and cable-less design
from existing Matrix C series, with the addition of innovative fea­tures, such as an eSATA interface, an LVDS output, and a hot­pluggable fan option.

The MXC-4000 series features an Intel® Atom™ D510 dual­core1.6 GHz processor to boostits performance to almost twice
that of the Atom™ N270 platform, while maintaining the same
overall power consumption. Its PCI and PCIe slots give you the
possibility to integrate off-the-shelf PCI/PCIe cards and develop a
configurable application platform. Built-in isolated DIO channels
are provided for general industrial control. Its LVDS output on the
front panel allows you to directly connect to a LCD panel. The
MXC-4000 series also provides two eSATA ports to enable the
capability of either expanding storage capacity or using hot-swap­pable SATA drives.

Introduction 1

Matrix MXC-4000 Series
User’s Manual

Leveraging a reliable fanless and durable cable-less design, the
MXC-4000 series exhibits excellent dependability in harsh envi­ronments, where severe temperature variation and vibration may
exist.

The MXC-4000 series provides an optional hot-pluggable fan
module to dissipate heat generated within the system when high
power consumption PCI/PCIe cards are installed. This ingenious
mechanical design retains a cable-less structure which dramati­cally improves thermal stability when PCI/PCIe cards installed.
Combining a reliable design with more computing power and inno­vative features, the Matrix MXC-4000 series is the optimal choice
to base your rugged application system on.

2.3 Operating Principles

2.3.1 Isolated Digital Input

Isolated digital input utilizes an open collector transistor structure,
with input voltage range of 0 V to 24 V and input resistance of 2.4K
Ω. Connection between external signals and the MXC-4002D/
4011D controller is as shown.

Note: The common input junction can be common ground or

common power, based on the applied environment, such
that digital input can be either a current source or current
sink.

Figure 2-1: Isolated Input Connection

System Description 15

Matrix MXC-4000 Series
User’s Manual

2.3.2 Isolated digital Output

Common ground connection of isolated digital output and common
power connection of isolated digital output are shown.

When isolated digital output enters an “ON” state, sink current is
conducted through the transistors. When an “OFF” state is
entered, there is no current through the transistors.

Note: When the load is of an “inductance nature” such as a

relay, coil or motor, the VDD pin must be connected to an
external power source, with the extra connection utilized
for the ‘fly-wheel diode’ to form a current-release closed
loop, by which the transistors are protected from high
reverse voltage generated by the inductance load when
the output is switched from “ON” to “OFF”.

4 BIOS Settings and Driver Installation

4.1 BIOS Setting

The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) is a program that provides
a basic level of communication between the processor and periph­erals. In addition, the BIOS also contains codes for various
advanced features applied to the MXC-4000 series controller. The
BIOS setup program includes menus for configuring settings and
enabling features of MXC-4000 series. Most users do not need to
use the BIOS setup program, as the MXC-4000 series controller
ships with default settings that work well for most configurations.

In this section, BIOS options are illistrated.

Warning: Changing BIOS settings may lead to incorrect

controller behavior and possibly an unbootable
controller. If this happens, follow the instructions in
Section 2.4.4 to clear CMOS and then restore the
default settings. In general, do not change a BIOS
setting unless you are absolutely certain of what it
does.

4.2.5 Install the WDT Driver

A WDT (watchdog timer) is a hardware mechanism to reset the
system when the operating system or application is halted. A typi­cal usage of WDT is to start the timers and periodically reset the
timer, and when timer is expired, the system resets. You need to
install the WDT driver to program the WDT.

Please follow the following steps to install WDT driver for theMXC­4000 series

1. Close any running application.

2. Insert the ADLINK All-in-One DVD. The WDT driver is
located in the directory:
x:\Driver Installation\Matrix\MXC-4000\WDT\
where x: denotes the DVD-ROM drive.

3. Execute setup.exe and follow on-screen instructions to
complete the setup.

4. After installation completes, reboot your system.

A Appendix

A.1 Watchdog Timer (WDT) Function Reference

This appendix describes the usage of the watchdog timer (WDT)
function library for the MXC-4000 controller. The watchdog timer is
a hardware mechanism to reset the system in case the operating
system or an application halts. After starting watchdog timer, you
need to periodically reset the watchdog timer in the application
before the timer expires. Once watchdog timer expires, a hard­ware-generated signal is sent to reset the system.

To use the WDT function library with the MXC-4000 series, you
need to include the header file WDT.h and linkage library WDT.lib
in your C++ project.

InitWDT

@ Description

Initialize the watchdog timer function of MXC-4000 series con­troller. InitWDT must be called before the invocation of any
other WDT function.

@ Supported controllers

MXC-4000 series

@ Syntax

C/C++

BOOL InitWDT()

@ Parameters

None

@ Return code

TRUE if watchdog timer is successfully initialized.

FALSE if watchdog timer is failed to initialize.

SetWDT

@ Description

Set the timeout value of watchdog timer. There are two param­eters for this function to indicate the timeout ticks and unit.
Users should call ResetWDT or StopWDT before the expiration
of watchdog timer, or the system will be reset.

@ Supported controllers

MXC-4000 series

@ Syntax

C/C++

BOOL SetWDT(BYTE tick, BYTE unit)

@ Parameters

tick

Specify the number of tick for watchdog timer. A valid value
is 1 - 255.

unit

Specify the timeout ticks of the watchdog timer.

Value Description

The unit of tick is second. For example, when you specify tick

0

as 100 and unit as 0, the timeout value is 100 seconds.

The unit of tick is minute. For example, when you specify tick

1

as 100 and unit as 1, the timeout value is 100 minutes.

@ Return codes

TRUE if timeout value of watchdog timer is successfully set.

FALSE if timeout value of watchdog timer is failed to set.

StartWDT

@ Description

Start the watchdog timer function. Once the StartWDT is
invoked, the countdown of watchdog timer starts. Users should
call ResetWDT or StopWDT before the expiration of watchdog
timer, or the system will be reset.

@ Supported controllers

MXC-4000 series

@ Syntax

C/C++

BOOL StartWDT()

@ Parameters

None

@ Return codes

TRUE if watchdog timer is successfully started.

FALSE if watchdog timer is failed to start.

ResetWDT

@ Description

Reset the watchdog timer. The invocation of ResetWDT allows
users to restore the watchdog timer to the initial timeout value
specified in SetWDT function. Users should call ResetWDT or
StopWDT before the expiration of watchdog timer, or the sys­tem will be reset.

@ Supported controllers

MXC-4000 series

@ Syntax

C/C++

BOOL ResetWDT()

@ Parameters

None

@ Return codes

TRUE if watchdog timer is successfully reset.

FALSE if watchdog timer is failed to reset.

@ Supported controllers

MXC-4000 series

@ Syntax

C/C++

BOOL StopWDT()

@ Parameters

None

@ Return codes

TRUE if watchdog timer is successfully stopped.

FALSE if watchdog timer is failed to stop.
