2.5 Setting Jumpers

You may configure your card to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electric 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” 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 closed 2-3

The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows:.

open closed closed 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 changes.

Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most connections.

PCA-6772 User’s Manual 12

2.6 Clear CMOS (JP1)

Warning! To avoid damaging the computer, always turn

off the power supply before setting “Clear CMOS.” Before turning on the power supply, set the jumper back to “3.0 V Battery On.”

This jumper is used to erase CMOS data and reset system BIOS information.

The procedure for clearing CMOS is:

1. Turn off the system.

2. Short pin 2 and pin 3.

3. Return jumper to pins 1 and 2.

4. Turn on the system. The BIOS is now reset to its default setting

Table 2.4: LAN Vcc select (JP2)

Normal power* WOL power

* default setting

Note: PCA-6772 supports Wake-on-LAN. For Wake-on LAN, JP2 has to be set to the WOL power position

2.8 Watchdog timer configuration

An on-board watchdog timer reduces the chance of disruptions which EMP (electro-magnetic pulse) interference can cause. This is an invaluable protective device for standalone or unmanned applications. Setup involves one jumper and running the control software (refer to Appendix A).

PCA-6772 User’s Manual 14

2.8.1 Watchdog timer action (JP3)

When the watchdog timer activates (CPU processing has come to a halt), it can reset the system or generate an interrupt on IRQ11. This can be set via setting JP3 as shown below:

Table 2.5: Watchdog timer action (JP3)

*System reset IRQ 11

* default setting

2.9 Installing DIMMs

The procedure for installing DIMMs is described below. Please follow these steps carefully. The number of pins are different on either side of the breaks, so the module can only fit in one way. DIMM modules have different pin contacts on each side, and therefore have a higher pin density.

1. Make sure that the two handles of the DIMM socket are in the

“open” position. i.e. The handles remain leaning outward.

2. Slowly slide the DIMM module along the plastic guides on both

ends of the socket.

3. 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 socket.

To remove the memory module, just push both handles outward, and the module will be ejected from the socket.

2.10 ATX power control connector (CN1,CN15)

2.10.1 ATX feature connector (CN1) and soft power

switch connector (CN15)

The PCA-6772 can support an advanced soft power switch function, if an ATX power supply is used. To enable the soft power switch function:

1. Get the specially designed ATX-to-EBX power cable

(PCA-6772 optional item, part no. 1703200100)

2. Connect the 3-pin plug of the cable to CN1 (ATX feature connec-

tor).

3. Connect the power on/off button to CN15. (A momentary type of

button should be used.)

Important Make sure that the ATX power supply can take

at least a 10 mA load on the 5 V standby lead (5VSB). If not, you may have difficulty powering on your system.

2.11 Printer port connector (CN2)

Normally, the parallel port is used to connect the card to a printer. The PCA-6772 includes a multi-mode (ECP/EPP/SPP) parallel port accessed via CN2 and a 26-pin flat-cable connector. You will need an adapter cable if you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The adapter cable has a 26-pin connector on one end, and a DB-25 connector on the other.

The parallel port is designated as LPT1, and can be disabled or changed to LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.

The parallel port interrupt channel is designated to be IRQ7.

You can select ECP/EPP DMA channel via BIOS setup.

2.12 Floppy drive connector (CN3)

You can attach up to two floppy drives to the PCA-6772’s on-board controller. You can use any combination of 5.25” (360 KB and 1.2 MB) and/ or 3.5” (720 KB, 1.44 MB, and 2.88 MB) drives.

A 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable is required for a dual-drive system. On one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the other end are two sets of floppy disk drive connectors. Each set consists of a 34-pin flat-cable connector (usually used for 3.5” drives) and a printed-circuit board connector (usually used for 5.25” drives).

2.12.1 Connecting the floppy drive

1. Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN3. Make sure that the

red wire corresponds to pin one on the connector.

2. Attach the appropriate connector on the other end of the cable to

the floppy drive(s). You can use only one connector in the set. The set on the end (after the twist in the cable) connects to the A: drive. The set in the middle connects to the B: drive.

3. If you are connecting a 5.25” floppy drive, line up the slot in the

printed circuit board with the blocked-off part of the cable connec-

tor. If you are connecting a 3.5” floppy drive, you may have trouble determining which pin is number one. Look for a number printed on the circuit board indicating pin number one. In addition, the connector on the floppy drive may have a slot. When the slot is up, pin number one should be on the right. Check the documentation that came with the drive for more information.

17 Chapter 2 Installation

If you desire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the middle of the cable as described above.

In case you need to make your own cable, you can find the pin assignments for the board’s connector in Appendix C.

2.13 Primary IDE connector(CN4)

The PCA-6772 provides an IDE channel to which you can attach up to two Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics hard disk drives or CDROM to the PCA-6772’s internal controller. The PCA-6772's IDE controller uses a PCI interface. This advanced IDE controller supports faster data transfer, PIO Mode 3 or Mode 4, UDMA 33/66/100 mode.

2.13.1 Connecting the hard drive

Connecting drives is done in a daisy-chain fashion. It requires one of two cables (not included in this package), depending on the drive size. 1.8" and 2.5" drives need a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 44-pin flat-cable connector. 3.5" drives use a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 40-pin connector.

Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray.

1. Connect one end of the cable to CN4. Make sure that the red (or

blue) wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connector, which is labeled

on the board (on the right side).

2. Plug the other end of the cable into the Enhanced IDE hard drive,

with pin 1 on the cable corresponding to pin 1 on the hard drive.

(See your hard drive’s documentation for the location of the con-

nector.) If desired, connect a second drive as described above.

Unlike floppy drives, IDE hard drives can connect to either end of the cable. If you install two drives, you will need to set one as the master and one as the slave by using jumpers on the drives. If you install only one drive, set it as the master.

2.14 VGA/LCD interface connections

The PCA-6772’s display interface can drive conventional CRT displays and is capable of driving a wide range of flat panel displays as well, including passive LCD and active LCD displays. The board has two display connectors: one for standard CRT VGA monitors, and one for flat panel displays.

PCA-6772 User’s Manual 18

2.14.1 CRT display connector (CN5)

CN5 is a 16-pin, dual-inline header used for conventional CRT displays. A simple one-to-one adapter can be used to match CN5 to a standard 15pin D-SUB connector commonly used for VGA.

Pin assignments for CRT display connector CN5 are detailed in Appendix C.

2.14.2 Flat panel display connector (CN12)

CN12 consists of a 40-pin connector which can support an 18-bit LCD panel. It is Hirose’s product no. DF13A-40DP-1.25 V

The PCA-6772 provides a bias control signal on CN12 that can be used to control the LCD bias voltage. It is recommended that the LCD bias voltage not be applied to the panel until the logic supply voltage (+5 V or +3.3 V) and panel video signals are stable. Under normal operation, the control signal (ENAVEE) is active high. When the PCA-6772’s power is applied, the control signal is low until just after the relevant flat panel signals are present. CN12 can connect up to 18 bit TFT LCD.

7.1 Introduction

The PCA-6772 is equipped with a high performance 32-bit Ethernet chipset which is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3 100 Mbps CSMA/CD standards. It is supported by major network operating systems. It is also both 100Base-T and 10Base-T compatible. The medium type can be configured via the RSET8139.exe program included on the utility disk.

The Ethernet port provides three standard RJ-45 jacks via an optional wiring kit. The network boot feature can be utilized by incorporating the boot ROM image files for the appropriate network operating system. The boot ROM BIOS files are combined with system BIOS, which can be enabled/disabled in the BIOS setup.
