Product warranty

Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its prod­ucts will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years
from the date of purchase.

This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or
altered by persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech,
or which have been subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper instal­lation. Advantech assumes no liability under the terms of this warranty as
a consequence of such events.

If an Advantech product is defective, it will be repaired or replaced at no
charge during the warranty period. For out-of-warranty repairs, you will
be billed according to the cost of replacement materials, service time and
freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.

If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:

1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For
example, type of PC, CPU speed, Advantech products used, other
hardware and software used, etc.) Note anything abnormal and list
any on-screen messages you get when the problem occurs.

2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your man­ual, product, and any helpful information readily available.

3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return
material authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us to
process your return more quickly.

4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and
Replacement Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date
(such as your sales receipt) in a shippable container. A product
returned without proof of the purchase date is not eligible for war­ranty service.

Chapter 1 Hardware Configuration

1.1 Introduction

The PCE-5120 is designed with the Intel® 945G chipset and ICH7R (I/O
controller) to support Core™ 2 Duo, Dual-Core Pentium® D / Pentium®
4 / Celeron® D processors (refer to “Processor Support” on page vi) with
a 533/800/1066 MHz front side bus and DDR2 533/667 MHz memory up
to 4 GB. It follows the PICMG 1.3 specification and is the best solution
for high-performance computing and applications in which a wide I/O
bandwidth is demanded.

The PCE-5120 offers a high-performance cost-saving integrated graphics
unit, built into the Intel® 945G chipset, and features the unique Intel®
Extreme Graphics architecture to maximize VGA performance and share
system memory up to 224MB. Whenever higher graphics computing abil­ity is required, the PCE-5120 also provides a mainstream PCI Express x
16 Link to the PICMG 1.3 backplane to interface add-on graphic cards. In
addition, the PCE-5120 has a single/dual Gigabit Ethernet LAN via dedi­cated PCI Express x 1 bus, which offers bandwidths up to 500 MB/sec.,
eliminating the network data flow bottlenecks, and incorporating Gigabit
Ethernet to operate at 1000 Mbps. High reliability and outstanding perfor­mance make the PCE-5120 the ideal platform for industrial networking
applications.

By using the Intel® ICH7R chipset, the PCE-5120 offers another four
PCI-Express x 1 Link to backplane which can be configured for support­ing variety expansion slots. With four on-board SATA2 interfaces (band­width = 300MB/sec), the PCE-5120 may support software RAID 0, 1, 5,
10 functions; eight USB 2.0 connections (four on board and four to back­plane). These powerful I/O capabilities ensure even more reliable data
storage capabilities and suitable for work with high-speed I/O peripher­als.

In addition, the PCE-5120 also provides most of the popular I/O inter­faces such as one ATA-100 EIDE ports, AC'97 audio interface, four RS­232 ports (COM2 port may be configured for supporting RS-232/422/485
through a pin header), one enhanced parallel port and floppy disk inter­face.

PCE-5120 User Manual 2

The PCE-5120 retains a legacy PCI 32-bit /33 MHz bus from the CPU
board to the Backplane. It does not require a PCI-Express to PCI bridge
chip to lower the system cost. It is good for the application and only needs
a few legacy PCI Buses.

The PCE-5120 is designed with considerations 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. A 256-level watchdog timer prevents the
system from hanging up if a program cannot be executed normally. A
remote management port allows users to monitor the system health status
and control the system remotely through standard SNMP/HTTP protocol
when used with Advantech's ACMM-1000 and SNMP-1000 Intelligent
System Manager.

The PCE-5120 also adopts Advantech's unique patented “Sleep Mode
Control Circuit” for AT Power Mode. With this thoughtful design, users
need NOT clear the CMOS after the system enters S3 mode. With all
these excellent features and outstanding performance, the PCE-5120 is
definitely the ideal platform for today's industrial applications.

1.8 Jumper Settings

This section provides instructions on how to configure your PCE-5120 by
setting the jumpers. It also includes the PCE-5120's default settings and
your options for each jumper.

1.8.1 How to set jumpers

You can configure your PCE-5120 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 PCE-5120 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 PCE-5120 contains a watchdog timer that will reset the CPU in the
event the CPU stops processing. This feature means the PCE-5120 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 PCE-5120 has four sockets for 240-pin dual inline memory modules
(DIMMs) in two memory channels.

All these sockets use 1.8 V unbuffered double data rate synchronous
DRAMs (DDR 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 4 GB.

1.9.1 CPU FSB and memory speed

The PCE-5120 can accept DDR2 SDRAM memory chips without parity.
Also note: The PCE-5120 accepts DDR2 400/533/667MHz SDRAM.
The PCE-5120 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.

1.11 Cache Memory

The CPU that PCE-5120 supports built-in 4 MB (for Core™ 2 Duo), 2 x
1024KB/2 x 2048KB cache memory (for Pentium D CPU), and 1024KB/
2048KB (for Pentium 4 CPU), and 256KB/512 KB (For Celeron D CPU)
full-speed L2 cache. The built-in second-level cache in the processor
yields much higher performance than conventional external cache memo­ries.
