FS-97A User’s Manual BIOS Setup
Chapter 4 <BIOS Setup>
The single board computer uses the Award BIOS for the s ystem configurati on. T he
Award BIOS in the single board computer is a customized version of the industrial
standard BIOS for IBM PC AT-compatible computers. It supports Intel x86 and
compatible CPU architecture based processors and computers. The BIOS provides
critical low-level support for the system central processing, memory and I/O
sub-systems.
The BIOS setup program of the single board computer let the customers modify the
basic configuration setting. The settings are stored in a dedicated battery-backed
memory, NVRAM, retains the information when the power is turned off. If the battery
runs out of the power, then the settings of BIOS will come back to the default setting.
The BIOS section of the manual is subject to change without notice and is provided here
for reference purpose only. The settings and configurations of the BIOS are current at
the time of print, and therefore they may not be exactly the same as that displayed on
your screen.
To activate CMOS Setup program, press ＜DEL＞ ke y immediately after you turn on
the system. The following message “Press DEL to enter SETUP” should appear in the
lower left hand corner of your screen. When you enter the CMOS Setup Utility, the Main
Menu will be displayed as Figure 5-1. You can use arrow keys to select your function,
press ＜Enter＞ key to accept the selection and enter the sub-menu.

Appendix C <Watchdog Timer Programming Guide>
WDT source from : WinBond 83627HF
(1) General Description
Winbond has a WDT feature inside its chip. We implement its
function into our circuit .
There are many configuration Registors ( CR ) in 83627HF. The
following sequence must be followed for CR programming :
(*1) Enter the extended function mode
(*2) Configure the configuration registers
(*3) Exit the extended function mode
EFER : Extended Function Enable Registers.( EFER=2Eh in our system )
EFIR : Extended Function Index Register. ( Same addr. with EFER. )
EFDR : Extended Function Data Register.( Located at addr.[ EFIR +1 ] )
For instance ;
(*1) Enter extended function mode
MOV DX,2EH
MOV AL,87H
CLI ; disable interrupt
OUT DX,AL
JMP $+2
OUT DX,AL
STI ; enable interrupt
(*2) Configurate logical device 1 , configuration register CRF0
MOV DX,2EH
MOV AL,07H
OUT DX,AL
; point to Logical Device Number Register
MOV DX,2FH
MOV AL,01H
OUT DX,AL
; select logical device 1
MOV DX,2EH
MOV AL,0F0H
OUT DX,AL
MOV DX,2FH
MOV AL,3CH
OUT DX,AL ; update CRF0 of LD0 with value 3Ch
(*3) Exit extended function mode
MOV DX,2EH
MOV AL,0AAH
OUT DX,AL
The Configuration Register ( CR ) Definition :
Watchdog Timer Programming Guide

FS-97A User’s Manual Watchdog Timer Programming Guide
** Chip ( Global ) Control Register ( CCR ) : CR02 -->CR2F.
CR07 = Logical Device Number Register ( LDNR )
** Logical Device 0 ( LD0 ) = FDC , with CR : CR30 -->CRF5 .
When LDNR (= CR07) = 00h , you can program the CR30 --CRF5
related to FDC feature .
** Logical Device 1 ( LD1 ) = Parallel Port,with CR :CR30 -->CRF0.
** LD2 = UART A ( Serial Port 1) ,with CR :CR30 -->CRF0.
** LD3 = UART B ( Serial Port 2) ,with CR :CR30 -->CRF1.
** LD5 = KBC ,with CR :CR30 -->CRF0.
** LD6 = CIR ,with CR :CR30 -->CR70.
** LD7 = GAME PORT,MIDI PORT & GP I/O Port I,with CR :CR30 -->CRF2.
** LD8 = GP I/O Port II,with CR :CR30 -->CRF7.
** LD9 = GP I/O Port III,with CR :CR30 -->CRF3.
** LDA = ACPI,with CR :CR30 -->CRFF.
** LDB = HARDWARE MONITOR, with CR : CR30 --> CRF0
(2) Related CR for WDT programming
CR2B-Bit 4 ; [0] for WDT function ( via Pin89 )
LD8-CRF5-Bit 3; Select WDT count time
0 = second.
1 = minute.
LD8-CRF6 ; WDT time-out period ,
00h = disabled
01h = 1 second/minute .
02h = 2 seconds/minutes .
03h = 3 seconds/minutes .
04h = 4 seconds/minutes .
05h = 5 seconds/minutes .
..........
FEh = 254 seconds/minutes .
FFh = 255 seconds/minutes .
When writing a non-zero value to LD8-CRF6 , this
value will be loaded into WDT counter and start
to count down .Read this register can not get the
WDT time-out period ( the orginal one written into
) , but the current value in WDT counter .
Enable and Refresh WDT : program LD8-CRF6 a
non-zero value .
Disable WDT : program LD8-CRF2 with 00h .
LD8-CRF7- Bit 4 : WDT Status
1 = WDT time-out happened
0 = WDT counting .

(3) WDT Programmimg guide
Step 1 . Enter extended function mode as mentioned as above.
Step 2 . Program WDT related CR.
(2-1) CR2B-b[4]P[0] ; Set pin output as WDT function
(2-2) CR07-P08h ; Point to LD8
(2-3) CRF6-Pxyh
; Program WDT time-out period and start
count down . xy = 00 ; No WDT time-out and counting
xy = 01 ; WDT time-out = 30 sec. and starts counting .
............
(2-4) Read CRF7-b4 if needed ; 0 : WDT counting
1 : WDT time-out happened
Step 3. Exit extended function mode as mentioned as above.
Example (ENABLE WDT AND SET WDT time-out = 5 minutes)
Step 1 .
