Chapter 3 BIOS Setup

This chapter describes the BIOS setup.

Overview

BIOS are a program located on a Flash memory chip on a circuit board. It is used to initialize and set up the I/O peripherals and interface cards of the system, which includes time, date, hard disk drive, the ISA bus and connected devices such as the video display, diskette drive, and the keyboard. This program will not be lost when you turn off the system.
The BIOS provides a menu-driven interface to the console subsystem. The console subsystem contains special software, called firmware that interacts directly with the hardware components and facilitates interaction between the system hardware and the operating system.
The BIOS default values ensure that the system will function at its normal capability. In the worst situation the user may have corrupt ed the original settings set by the manufacturer.
All the changes you make will be saved in the system RAM and will not be lost after power-off.
When you start the system, the BIOS will perform a self-diagnostics test called Power On Self Test (POST) for all the attached devices, accessories, and the system. Press the [Del] key to enter the BIOS Setup program, and then the main menu will show on the screen.
Note: Change the parameters when you fully understand their functions and
subsequence.

FabiaTech Corporation
Primary/Secondary IDE Master/Slave
IDE hard drive controllers can support up to two separate hard drives. These drives have a master/slave relationship, which is determined by the cabling configuration used to attach them to the controller. Your system supports one IDE controller – a primary – so you have the ability to install up to two separate hard disks.
LBA/Large Mode
LBA (Logical Block Addressing) is a method of addressing data on a disk drive. In LBA mode, the maximum drive capacity is 137 GB. The Optimal and Fail-Safe default setting is Auto
Hard Disk Type
The BIOS supports various types for user settings, The BIOS supports <Pri Master>, <Pri Slave>, so the user can install up to two hard disks. For the master and slave jumpers, please refer to the hard disk’s installation descriptions and the hard disk jumper settings.
You can select <AUTO> under the <TYPE> and <MODE> fields. This will Enabled auto detection of your IDE drives during boot up. This will allow you to change your hard drives (with the power off) and then power on without having to reconfigure your hard drive type. If you use older hard disk drives, which do not support this feature, then you must configure the hard disk drive in the standard method as described above by the <USER> option.
PIO MODE
PIO means Programmed Input/Output. Rather than have the BIOS issue a series of commands to affect a transfer to or from the disk drive, PIO allows the BIOS to tell the controller what it wants and then let the controller and the CPU perform the complete task by them. This is simpler and more efficient (and faster). Your system supports five modes, numbered from 0 to 4, which primarily differ in timing. When Auto is selected, the BIOS will select the best available mode.
BLOCK (Multi-Sector Transfer) This option allows your hard disk controller to use the fast block mode to transfer data to and from your hard disk drive (HDD).

Watchdog Timer

This section describes how to use the Watchdog Timer, including disabled, enabled, and trigg e r f u n ctions.
The system is equipped with a programmable time-out period watchdog timer. You can use your own program to enable the watchdog timer. Once you have enabled the watchdog timer, the program should trigger the I/O every time before the timer times out. If your program fails to trigger or disable this timer before it times out, e.g. because of a system hang-up, it will generate a reset signal to reset the system. The time-out period can be programmed to b e s et from 1 to 255 seconds or minutes.
54
FabiaTech Corporation

Watchdog Timer Setting

The watchdog timer is a circuit that may be used from your program software to detect system crashes or hang-ups. The watchdog timer is automatically d isabled after reset.
Once you have enabled the watchdog timer, your program must trigger the watchdo g timer eve ry time before it times out. After you trigger the watchdog timer, it will be set to non-zero value to w atchdog c ounter and start to count down again. If your program fails to trigger the watchdog timer before time-out, it will generate a reset pulse to reset the system.
The factor of the watchdog timer time-out constant is approximately 1 second. The period for the watchdog timer time-out is be tw een 1 to FF tim e r f a ctors.
If you want to reset your system when watchdog times out, the following table listed the relation of timer factors between time-out periods.

To enable the watchdog timer, you have to output a byte of timer factor to the watchdog register whose address is 2Eh and data port is 2fH. The following is an Assemble program, which demonstrates how to enable the watchdog timer and set the time-out period at 28 seconds. ;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------­; Enter the extended function mode, interruptible double-write ;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------­Mov dx, 2eh ; Enter to extended function mode Mov al, 87h Out dx,al Out dx,al Mov al,07h Out dx,al ;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------­; Logical device 8, configuration register CRF5 Bit 3,CRF6 Bit 0~7 ;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------­Mov dx,2fh Mov al,08h ;

Watchdog Timer Trigger

After you enable the watchdog timer, your program must write the same factor as enabling to the watchdog register at least once every time-out period to its previous setting. You can change the time-out period by writing another timer factor to the watchdog register at any time, and you must trigger the watchdog before the new time-out period in next trigger.

Programming RS-485

The majority communicative operation of the RS-485 is in the same of the RS-232. When the RS-485 precedes the transmissi on, which needs control the TXC signal, and the installing, steps are as follows:
Step 1: Enable TXC
Step 2: Send out data
Step 3: Waiting for data empty
Step 4: Disable TXC
Note: Please refer to the section of the “Serial Por ts” in the Chapter 5 “Technical
Reference” for the detail description of the COM port’s register.

Initialize COM port

Step 1: Initialize COM port in the receiver interrupt mode, and /or transmitter
in te r r u p t m o d e . ( A l l o f t h e c o m m u n i c a t i o n protocol buses of the RS-485 are in the same.)
Step 2: Disable TXC (transmitter control), the bit 0 of the addres s of offset+4
just sets “0”.
NOTE: Control the system “DTR” signal to the RS-485 TXC communication.
58
FabiaTech Corporation

Send out one character (Transmit)

Step 1: Enabled TXC signal, and the bit 0 of the address of offset+4 just sets “1”.
Step 2: Send out the data. (Write this character to the offset+0 of the current
COM port address)
Step 3: Wait for the buffer’s data empty. Check transmitter holding register
(THRE, b it 5 of the address of offset+5), and transmitter shift register (TSRE, bit 6 of the address of offset+5) are all sets must be “0”.
Step 4: Disabled TXC signal, and the bit 0 of the address of offset+4 sets “0”

Send out one block data (Transmit – the data more than two characters)

Step 1: Enabled TXC signal, and the bit 0 of the address of offset+4 just sets “1”.
Step 2: Send out the data. (Write all data to the offset+0 of the current COM
port address)
Step 3: Wait for the buffer’s data empty. Check transmitter holding register
(THRE, b it 5 of the address of offset+5), and transmitter shift register (TSRE, bit 6 of the address of offset+5) are all sets must be “0”.
Step 4: Disabled TXC signal, and the bit 0 of the address of offset+4 sets “0”

Receive data

The RS-485’s operation of receiving data is in the s ame of the RS - 2 3 2’s.

FLOPPY DISK CONTROLLER ERROR OR NO CONTROLLER PRESENT
When you cannot find or initialize the floppy drive controller, please ensure the controller is in proper BIOS Setup. If there is no floppy drive installed, ensure the Diskette Drive selection in Setup is set to NONE.
KEYBOARD ERROR OR NO KEYBOARD PRESENT
When this situation happens, please check keyboard attachment and no keys being pressed during the boot. If you are purposely configuring the system without a keyboard, set the error halt condition in BIOS Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT KEYBOARD. This will cause the BIOS to ignore the missing keyboard and continue the boot procedure.

Serial Ports

The ACEs (Asynchronous Communication Elements ACE1 to ACE2) are used to convert parallel data to a serial format on the transmit side and convert serial data to parallel on the receiver side. The serial format, in order of transmission and reception , is a start b it, followed by five to eight data bits, a parity bit (if programmed) and one, one and half (five-bit format only) or two stop bits. The ACEs are capable of handling divisors of 1 to 65535, and produce a 16x clock for driving the internal transmitter logic.
Provisions are also included to use this 16x clock to drive the receiver logic, also included in the ACE a completed M O DEM control capability, and a processor interrupt system that may be software tailored to the computing time required to handle the communications link.
The following table is a summary of each ACE accessible register
