To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompte d to enter the passwor d. A message will confirm the password will be disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup fr ee ly.

PASSWORD DISABLED. When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to enter Setup.

This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system configuration. You can also set up the password so that you are prompted to enter it whenever the system is rebooted.

This would prevent unauthorized use of your computer. You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features Setup Menu and its Security

option. If the Security option is set to “System”, the password will be required both at boot and at entry to BIOS Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter BIOS Setup.

Baud Rate Settings A baud rate is set by software by dividing the clock input (1.8432MHz). The baud rate in terms of

hardware can be set to a maximum of 115,200 bps for SERIAL1, 2 and 230,400bps for SERIAL3 - 6. The baud rates available in practice depend on the operating environment (cable, software, etc.). The table below lists typical baud rates and their respective values to be written to the divisor latch register (LSB, MSB).

Watchdog Timer

The watchdog timer is started by output of A5 to I/O port address 4002h. A second output of A5 to the same port within the specified expiration time once again triggers the watchdog timer. If a time-out occurs, a reset or an interrupt is generated according to the 4004h port setting or an alarm is output according to the 4004h port setting.

The time-out period can be set between 1 - 255 seconds depending on the timer value setting for the WDT counter port (4003h).

The watchdog timer stops by reading port 4002h. The alarm-out output is cancelled at the same time. The alarm out is output from the RAS connector's PO2/WDT (pin 12) and cancelled when reset. The alarm-out output can be set to BIOS startup by BIOS setup (see Chapter 4), watchdog timer startup,

or watchdog timer time-up.

Specifications

- Time to be set: 1sec - 255sec

- Interrupt or reset: Resets or generates an interrupt at time-up (Port setting).

- External alarm output: Optocoupler isolated open-collector output (the output status is set by software). For more information, see the general-purpose I/O specifications.

- I/O addresses: 4000h - 4007h (RAS port)

Utility Soft

The following gives a brief description of utility software found on the bundled CD-ROM "IPC-SLIB-01". For detailed information and usage, refer to the help file in IPC-SLIB-01.

Hardware monitor Utility MTView

MTView is a utility to monitor the following items using the hardware monitor and SMART features:

- CPU temperature

- MB temperature

- Rotational speed of CPU fan

- Rotational speed of SYSTEM fan

- SMART information

You should set threshold values for the above items in advance (except for SMART information items). If the system becomes abnormal with any of the threshold values exceeded, the utility can take the following reaction while recording that condition to the system event log:

- Shut down the system

- Reboot the system

- Start the application

Monitoring is performed with MTView up and running. Once started, MTView accesses the hardware monitors periodically at user-specified time intervals to check various states.

You can use API functions as well as MTView to access the har dware monitors. For details, re fer to the help file in IPC-SLIB-01.

RTC utility RTCSync This product contains a high-precision RTC (hereafter the master RTC) as well as the ICH4 integrated

RTC. While the ICH4 integrated RTC is managed by the OS , the master RT C is indepe ndent o f the OS. You can use the RTCSync utility to access the master RTC.

RTCSync is intended to read the time from the master RTC and set it as the system clock for the OS (collectively referred to as synchronization). This synchronization can be executed either manually via a setup dialog box or automatically at a specific time pre-set by the scheduling function.
