1.1 Introduction

The PCA-6011 is designed with the Intel® G41 + ICH7/ICH7R (only for G2 SKU) to
support Core™ 2 Quad / Core™ 2 Duo /channel 440 processors (refer to “Processor
Support” on page v) with a 800/1066/1333 MHz front side bus and dual channel
DDR3 800/1066 MHz memory up to 4 GB. It follows the PICMG 1.0 specification and
is the best solution for high-performance computing and applications that demand a
wide I/O bandwidth.

The PCA-6011 offers a high-performance cost-saving integrated graphics unit, built
into the Intel® G41 chipset, and features the unique Intel® GMA X4500 technology,
including built-in support for smooth high-definition video playback without the need
for add-on video cards or decoders. It has 2 DIMM sockets in two separate memory
channels. It accepts up t o 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM memory--plenty f or most applic ations.
The PCA-6011 supports 1 to 2 Gigabit Ethernet LAN via dedicated PCI Express x 1
bus, which offers bandwidths up to 500 MB/sec., eliminating network data flow bottle­necks, and incorporating Gigabit Ethernet to operate at 1000 Mbps. High reliability
and outstanding performance make the PCA-6011 the ideal platform for industrial
networking applications.

Four Serial ATA ports (up to 300 MB/s) allow the use of long, thin SATA cables for
storage devices, eliminating cabling issues inside the industrial-grade chassis. In
addition, the PCA-6011 also provides most of the popular I/O interfaces including up
to eight USB 2.0 ports, 2 RS-232 ports, one enhanced parallel port and a floppy disk
interface.

The PCA-6011 is designed for extended reliability, and is built especially to suit
demanding industrial environments. The CMOS data backup and restore function
protects the BIOS setup data from loss due to battery failure.

The PCA-6011 also adopts Advantech's unique patented “AT Mode Control Circuit”
for AT Power Mode. With all these excellent features and outstanding performance,
the PCA-6011 is definitely an ideal platform for today's industrial applications.

1.7 Safety Precautions

Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis

whenever you work with the hardware. Do not make connections
while the power is on. Sensitive electronic components can be
damaged by sudden power surges. Only experienced electronics
personnel should open the PC chassis.

Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touch-

ing the boards. Modern electronic devices are very sensit ive to
static electric charges. As a safety precaut ion, use a grounding
wrist strap at all times. Place all electr onic components on a static­dissipative surface or in a static-shielded bag when they are not in
the chassis.

Caution! The computer is provided with a battery-powered real-time clock

circuit. There is a danger of explosion if batt e ry is incorrectly
replaced. Replace only with same or equivalent type recom­mended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to
manufacturer's instructions.

Caution! There is a danger of a new battery exploding if it is incorrectly

installed. Do not attempt to recharge, force open, or heat the bat­tery. Replace the battery onl y with t he same or equival ent type r ec­ommended by the manufacturer. Discard us ed batter ies accor ding
to the manufacturer’s instructions.

1.8 Jumper Settings

This section provides instructions on how to configure your PCA-6011 by setting the
jumpers. It also includes the PCA-6011's default settings and your options for each
jumper.

1.8.1 How to set jumpers

You can configure your PCA-6011 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-6011 single board computer contains a jumper that can erase CMOS data
and reset the system BIOS information. Normally this jumper should be set with pins
1-2 closed. If you want to reset the CMOS data, set CMOS1 to 2-3 closed for just a
few seconds, and then move the jumper back to 1-2 closed. This procedure will reset

the CMOS to its default setting .

1.8.3 Watchdog timer output (JWDT1)

The PCA-6011 contains a watchdog timer that will reset the CPU in the event the
CPU stops processing. This feature means the PCA-6011 will recover from a soft­ware failure or an EMI problem. The JWDT1 jumper settings control the outcome of
what the computer will do in the event the watchdog timer is tripped.

1.9 System Memory

The PCA-6011 has two sockets for 240-pin dual inline memory modules (DIMMs) in
two memory channels.

All these sockets use 1.5 V unbuffered doubl e data rat e synchronous DRAMs (DDR3
SDRAM). They are available in capacities of 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB. The sockets
can be filled in any combination with DIMMs of any size, giving a total memory size
up to 4 GB.

1.9.1 CPU FSB and memory speed

The PCA-6011 can accept DDR3 SDRAM memory chips without parity. Also note:
The PCA-6011 accepts DDR3 800/1066 MHz SDRAM. The PCA-6011 does NOT
support ECC (error checking and correction).

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. This is when 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.

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 nu mber of cards installed or have a p ack ed ch assis, you
may need to partially remove the card to make all the connecti ons.

2.2 IDE Connectors (IDE1)

You can attach up to two IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) drives to the PCA-6011's
built-in controller.

Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue and the other wires are gray. Connect one
end to connector IDE1 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. If you
use just one drive per connector, you should set each drive as the master. See the
documentation that came with your drive for more information.

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.

Watchdog Timer

A.1 Programming the Watchdog Timer

The PCA-6011 watchdog timer can be used to monitor system software operation
and take corrective action if the software fails to function wit h in 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 in to the super I/O controller W83627DHG-P. 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 reset signal i f the software fails to reset the timer

before time-out.

A.1.2 Jumper selection

The JWDT1 jumper is used to select r eset in t he event t he wat chdog ti mer is t ripped.
See Chapter 1 for detailed jumper settings.

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) i s the data port. You must first assign the
address of the register by writing an address value into address port 2E (hex), then
write/read data to/from the assigned register through data port 2F (hex).
