single board computer. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to
static electric charges. As a safety precaution, 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.
7 PCA-6008VG User Manual
Caution! The computer is provided with a battery-powered Real-time Clock cir-
cuit. There is a danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to manufacturer's instructions.
Note!
Before installing your PCA-6008 into a chassis, make sure that all components
on both sides of the CPU card do not touch any metal parts, especially the
chassis wall and add-on card at the adjacent slot
1.8 Jumper Settings
This section provides instructions on how to configure your single board computer by
setting the jumpers. It also includes the single board computer's default settings and
options for each jumper.
1.8.1 How to Set Jumpers
You can configure your single board computer to match the needs of your application
by setting the jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge that closes an electrical circuit. 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” (or turn ON) a jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” (or turn OFF) a jumper, you remove the clip.
Sometimes a jumper consists of a set of three pins, labeled 1, 2, and 3. In this case
you connect either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3. A pair of needle-nose pliers may be useful when setting jumpers.
1.8.2 CMOS Clear (CMOS1)
The PCA-6008 single board computer contains a jumper that can erase CMOS data
and reset the system BIOS information. You can clear CMOS by shorting 2-3 pin
while the system is off. Then return it to the 1-2 pin position. Avoid clearing the
CMOS while the system is on; it will damage the mainboard.

1.9 System Memory
The PCA-6008 has four sockets for 240-pin dual inline memory modules (DIMMs) in
two separate memory channels. It can operate with single channel or dual channel
modules. We recommend using dual channel mode to provide optimized performance.
All these sockets use 1.8 V unbuffered double data rate synchronous DRAMs (DDRII
SDRAM). They are available in capacities of 256, 512 and 1024 MB. The sockets can
be filled in any combination with DIMMs of any size, giving a total memory size
between 256 MB and 2 GB.
9 PCA-6008VG User Manual
1.9.1 CPU FSB and Memory Speed
The PCA-6008 can accept DDRII SDRAM memory chips without parity. Also note:
The PCA-6008 accepts DDRII 400MHz SDRAM and DDRII 533MHz SDRAM,
depending on the CPU front side bus frequency (FSB). Please refer to the table
below for the relationship between the CPU FSB and memory speed.
1.9.2 Dual Channel Configuration
The 2 DIMM sockets are arranged in two channels: DIMM1 in channel A and DIMM2
in channel B.
It is suggested to use a "Matched pair of DIMMs" which means: same in speed
(DDR266, DDR333, DDR400), same in size (128MB, 256MB, 512MB or 1GB), same
in chip density (128 Mb, 256Mb or 512Mb and same in CSA latency. Any other memory configuration will result in single channel memory operation.
1.10 Memory Installation Procedures
To install DIMMs, first make sure the two handles of the DIMM socket are in the
"open" position. i.e. The handles lean outward. Slowly slide the DIMM module along
the plastic guides on both ends of the socket. Then press the DIMM module right
down into the socket, until you hear a click. At this point the two handles have automatically locked the memory module into the correct position of the DIMM socket. To
remove the memory module, just push both handles outward, and the memory module will be ejected by the mechanism in the socket.
1.11 Processor Installation
The CPU on the board must have a fan or heat sink attached, to prevent overheating.
Warning!
1. The CPU has a plastic cap on it to protect the contact from damage. Before you
install the CPU, always cover it to protect the socket pin. First, remove the cap
from the lever hinge side and the pins of socket will be visible.
2. Open the load lever. Then, lift the load lever up and open the load plate.After
confirming the CPU direction for correct mating, gently push the CPU down in
the socket housing frame. Be sure to grasp on to the edge of the CPU base.
Note that the alignment keys are matched.
3. Place the load plate onto the package. Press the load lever down lightly onto
the load plate, and then secure the lever with the hook under retention tab. Confirm that your CPU cooler is firmly installed before turning on your system.
Without a fan or heat sink, the CPU will over-heat and cause damage to both the
CPU and the single board computer. To install a CPU, first turn off your system and
remove its cover. Locate the processor Socket 479

Peripherals
2.1 Introduction
You can access most of the connectors from the top of the board while it is installed
in the chassis. If you have a number of cards installed or have a packed chassis, you
may need to partially remove the card to make all the connections.
2.2 1st (IDE1) IDE Connector
IDE1
You can attach up to two IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) drives to the PCA-6008’s
built-in controller. The primary (IDE1) connector can accommodate two drives.
Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue and the other wires are gray. Connect one
end to connector CN1 on the single board computer. Make sure that the red/blue wire
corresponds to pin 1 on the connector (in the upper right hand corner). See Chapter
1 for help finding the connector.
Unlike floppy drives, IDE hard drives can connect in either position on the cable. If
you install two drives to a single connector, you will need to set one as the master
and the other as the slave. You do this by setting the jumpers on the drives.
Connect the first hard drive to the other end of the cable. Wire 1 on the cable should
also connect to pin 1 on the hard drive connector, which is labeled on the drive circuit
board. Check the documentation that came with the drive for more information.

3 Award BIOS Setup
3.1 Introduction
Award’s 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-up
memory (CMOS RAM) so that it retains the setup information when the power is
turned off.
3.1.1 CMOS RAM Auto-backup and Restore
The CMOS RAM is powered by an onboard button cell battery. When you finish BIOS
setup, the data in CMOS RAM will be automatically backed up to Flash ROM. If operation in harsh industrial environments causes a soft error, BIOS will recheck the data
in CMOS RAM and automatically restore the original data in Flash ROM to CMOS
RAM for booting.
Note!
If you intend to change the CMOS setting without restoring the previous
backup, you have to click on "DEL" within two seconds of the "CMOS checksum error..." display screen message appearing. Then enter the "Setup" screen
to modify the data. If the "CMOS checksum error..."message appears over and
over, please check to see if you need to replace the battery in your system.

A Programming the
Watchdog
A.1 Programming the Watchdog Timer
The PCA-6008's watchdog timer can be used to monitor system software operation
and take corrective action if the software fails to function after the programmed
period. This section describes the operation of the watchdog timer and how to program it.
A.1.1 Watchdog timer overview
The watchdog timer is built into the super I/O controller W83627HF. It provides the
following functions for user programming:
• Can be enabled and disabled by user's program.
• Timer can be set from 1 to 255 seconds or 1 to 255 minutes.
• Generates an interrupt or resets signal if the software fails to reset the timer
after time-out.
A.1.2 Reset/ Interrupt selection
The JWDT1 jumper is used to select reset or interrupt (IRQ 11) in the event the
watchdog timer is tripped. See Chapter 1 for detailed jumper settings.
Note!
A.1.3 Programming the Watchdog Timer
The I/O port address of the watchdog timer is 2E(hex) and 2F(hex).
2E (hex) is the address port. 2F(hex) is the data port.
You must first assign the address of register by writing address value
into address port 2E(hex), then write/read data to/from the assigned
register through data port 2F (hex).
The interrupt output of the watchdog timer is a low level signal. It will be held
low until the watchdog timer is reset.

count, in seconds or minutes,
depends on the value set in register
F5 (hex). This number decides how
long the watchdog timer waits for
strobe before generating an interrupt
or reset signal. Writing a new value to
this register can reset the timer to
count with the new value.
F7 (hex) read/write Bit 6: Write 1 to enable keyboard to
reset the timer, 0 to disable.[default]
Bit 5: Write 1 to generate a timeout
signal immediately and automatically
