If the overload protection in the power supply unit is triggered, all power is immediately cut. T o reset the power supply unit, remove the power cord and then determine what caused the overload and remedy it. Reconnect the power cord, then reboot the PC Workstation. If an overload happens twice, then there is an undetected short circuit somewhere.
NOTE When the PC Workstation is turned off with the power button on the front
panel, the power consumption falls below the low power consumption (refer to the below table), but is not zero. The special on/off method used by this PC Workstation extends the lifetime of the power supply. To reach zero power consumption in “off” mode, either unplug the PC Workstation from the power outlet or use a power block with a switch.

Accessory Board Slots
Accessory Board Slots
The following block diagram shows the position of the accessory board slots on the system board.
AGP Pro Universal Slot (Minitower Models)
Minitower models of the HP Kayak XM600 Series 2 are equipped with a single AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) Pro Universal graphics slot.
The AGP Pro Universal slot provides the ultimate graphics performance for high-end graphics cards, combining AGP 4X bandwidth (with data transfer rates up to 1056 MB/sec) with the ability to accept high-end graphics cards drawing up to 50 W of power.
To accommodate AGP Pro graphics cards, the AGP PRO Universal slot connector is wider than the standard AGP 4X connector. Additional pins have been added at both ends of the connector to meet the increased power requirements of AGP Pro graphics cards.
The AGP Pro Universal slot connector still accepts all existing 3.3 V and
1.5 V AGP cards. An AGP Pro card may draw power either from the existing part of the AGP
Pro connector, the extended part, or a combination of the two. In all cases, the maximum power that may be drawn by an AGP Pro card is limited to
Five 32-bit 33 MHz PCI slots: PCI Slot 1, PCI Slot 2, PCI Slot 3, PCI Slot 4, PCI Slot 5
(PCI Slot 2)
(PCI Slot 1)

Accessory Board Slots
50 W in the Minitower models. Power on the existing part of the connector is delivered on 5.0 V and 3.3 V rails. Power on the extension is delivered on the 12 V and 3.3 V rails.
Either standard AGP graphics cards or AGP Pro graphics cards < 50 W atts of power can be used (below 25W a standard AGP connector may be used), with power being provided through 3.3 V, 5 V, or 12 V power rails.
NOTE AGP Pro graphics cards drawing between 50W and 110W (“high-power” AGP
Pro cards) cannot be used in the slot
.
The AGP Pro Universal slot is backwards compatible with both AGP 1x and
2.x modes (using 3.3 V or 1.5 V signalling), and AGP 4x mode (where 1.5 V
signalling is required). The AGP interface and bus are explained on page 44
.
AGP Pro Universal Slot (Desktop Models)
Desktop models of the HP Kayak XM600 Series 2 are equipped with a single AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) Pro Universal graphics slot.
The connector accepts only standard (
25 W) AGP graphics cards. AGP Pro cards (> 25 W) cannot be used — a hardware detection prevents the PC Workstation from booting.
The AGP 4x graphics controller provides a high-performance graphics interface. It uses a 66.6 MHz base clock, and provides a peak bandwidth of 1056 MB/second in AGP 4x mode.
AGP 4x mode transfers data at twice the speed of AGP 2x mode, which is itself twice the speed of the basic AGP 1x mode. This is achieved by multiplying the 66 MHz AGP clock frequency, so that four packets of data are transferred on each cycle (transfers on both rising and falling edges of the clock speed). Each packet of data contains four bytes, giving a transfer rate of 66.6 MHz x 4 (quad-clock mechanism) x 4 bytes, a maximum bandwidth of 1056 MB/s.
The AGP interface and bus are explained on page 44
.

2 System Board
Accessory Board Slots
PCI Slots
There is a total of five Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) 32-bit, 33 MHz connectors on the system board.
The PCI slots accept 3.3 V and 5 V PCI 32-bit 33 MHz cards, and Universal PCI cards (which are 3.3 V or 5 V compatible). Refer to the table on the following page for the different PCI board installations.
If an AGP Pro graphics card is present in the AGP Pro graphics slot (Minitower models only), the PCI slot nearest the AGP slot
cannot be used. The maximum supported power consumption per slot is 25W, either from
the 5V or the 3.3V supply and must respect the electrical specifications of the PCI 2.2 specification. Total power consumption for the PCI slots must not exceed 60 W.
The power consumption of each PCI board is automatically reported to the system through the two Presence Detect pins of each PCI slot. These pins code the following cases:
No accessory board in the PCI slot.
7 W maximum PCI board in the PCI slot.
15 W maximum PCI board in the PCI slot.
25 W maximum PCI board in the PCI slot.
The following table shows the various PCI board installations for the different PCI slots:

Memory Controller Hub (MCH) 82820
MCH Interface
The MCH interface provides bus control signals and address paths for transfers between the processors on the Host bus (FSB), Direct Rambus channel and AGP 4x bus.
The MCH allows the processor to access up to 4 GB of memory. It also provides an 6-deep In-Order Queue supporting up to six outstanding transaction requests on the host bus.
The MCH can support one or two Pentium III processors, at FSB frequencies of 100/133 MHz using GTL+ signalling. Refer to page 64
for a description of
the devices on the Host bus.
Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) Bus Interface
A controller for the AGP4x (Accelerated Graphics Port) slot is integrated in the MCH. The AGP Bus interface is compatible with the Accelerated Graphics Port Specification, Rev 2.0, operating at 133 MHz, and supporting up to 1 GB/sec data transfer rates. The MCH supports only a synchronous AGP interface, coupling to the Host bus frequency.
AGP 4x Bus
The AGP bus is a dedicated bus for the graphics subsy stem, which meets the needs of high quality 3D graphics applications. It has a direct link to the MCH.
The AGP bus is based upon a 133 MHz, 32-bit PCI bus architecture, to which several signal groups provide AGP-specific control and transfer mechanisms.
Pipelining is added along with special sideband signals, increasing the efficiency of the AGP bus. Thus, you come closer to the theoretical maximum bandwidth. Although the maximum transfer rate is never exceeded, the overall transfer rate is increased.
AGP specific transactions always use pipelining. This control mechanism increases the bus efficiency for data transfer. Sideband Addressing (SBA) may also be used by AGP transaction requests which also increases the bus efficiency for data transfer. These two mechanisms can combine independently to pipelining, which leads to the following operating modes:
FRAME- based AGP. Only the PCI protocol is used: 66 MHz, 32-bits, 3.3 V, 266 MB/s peak transfer rate.

AGP PCI Bus Implementation
Main Memory Controller
The main memory controller is integrated in the MCH supporting a single Direct Rambus channel.
DRAM Interface
The MCH provides optional Host bus error checking for data, address, request and response signals. 300 MHz, 356 MHz and 400 MHz Direct Rambus devices are supported in any of 64, 128 or 256 Mbit technology. 64 and 128 Mbit RDRAMs use page sizes of 1 kbyte, while 256 Mb devices target 1 kbyte or 2 kbyte pages.

Memory Controller Hub (MCH) 82820
A maximum number of 32 Rambus devices (128 Mbit technology implies 512 MB maximum in 16 MB increments, 256 Mbit technology implies 1 GB maximum in 32 MB increments) are supported on the Direct Rambus channel without external logic.
The MCH also provides optional data integrity features including ECC in the memory array. During DRAM writes, ECC is generated on a QWord (64 bit) basis. During DRAM reads, the MCH supports multiple-bit error detection and single-bit error correction when the ECC mode is enabled.
MCH will scrub single bit errors by writing the corrected value back into DRAM for all reads when hardware scrubbing is enabled. This, however, does not include reads launched in order to satisfy an AGP aperture translation.
ECC can only be enabled when all RDRAM devices are populated in a sy stem that supports the extra two data bits used to store the ECC code.
Rambus Channel
The single Direct Rambus Channel is a 16-bit wide bidirectional bus—commands and data can be transferred in both directions simultaneously. The Rambus Channel is connected to the memory module slots and to the MCH chip.
The channel runs at 300 or 400 MHz and supports up to 32 Rambus devices (individual chips). The maximum available data bandwidth is 1.6GB/sec at 400 MHz.
RIMM Memory Slots
The HP Kayak XM600 Series 2 has two RIMM memory sockets, RIMM0 and RIMM1, available for installing RDRAM memory modules.
If only one RDRAM module is being used, it must be inserted in RIMM0 (the socket nearest the processor). A Continuity module must be inserted in the RIMM1 socket.

Read/Write Buffers
The MCH defines a data buffering scheme to support the required level of concurrent operations and provide adequate sustained bandwidth between the DRAM subsystem and all other system interfaces (CPU, AGP and PCI).
System Clocking
The MCH operates the host interface at 100 MHz or 133 MHz, PCI at 33 MHz and AGP at 66/133 MHz. Coupling between all interfaces and internal logic is done in a synchronous manner. The clocking scheme uses an external clock synthesizer (which produces reference clocks for the host, AGP and PCI interfaces).
I/O APIC
I/O APIC is used to support dual processors as well as enhanced interrupt processing in the single processor environment. The MCH supports an external status output that can be used to control synchronization of interrupts in configurations that use ICH with stand-alone I/O APIC components.

The Input/Output Controller Hub (82801AA)
ICH Architecture
The ICH interface architecture ensures that the I/O subsystems, both PCI and the integrated input/output features (for example: IDE, AC’97 and USB) receive the adequate bandwidths.
To achieve this, by placing the I/O bridge directly on the ICH interface, and no longer on the PCI bus, the ICH architecture ensures that both the input/output functions integrated into the ICH and the PCI peripherals obtain the bandwidth necessary for peak performance.
ICH PCI Bus Interface
The ICH PCI provides the interface to a PCI bus interface operating at 33 MHz. This interface implementation is compliant with PCI Rev 2.2 Specification, supporting up to six external PCI masters in addition to the ICH requests and AC’97 controller. The PCI bus can reach a data transfer rate of 133 MBytes/sec. The maximum PCI burst transfer can be between 256 bytes and 4 KB. It also supports advanced snooping for PCI master bursting, and provides a pre-fetch mechanism dedicated for IDE read.
Refer to page 68
for a description of the devices on the ICH.
SMBus Controller
The System Management (SM) bus is a two-wire serial bus. It runs at a maximum of 100 kHz. The SMBus Host interface allows the processor to communicate with SMBus slaves. The bus connects to sensor devices that monitor some of the hardware functions of the system board, both during system boot and run-time.
Refer to page 55
for a description of the devices on the SMBus, or to page 58
for information on the MaxiLife ASIC.
Low Pin Count Interface
The ICH implements the LPC interface 1.0 specification.
Enhanced USB Controller
The USB (Universal Serial Bus) controller provides enhanced support for the Universal Host Controller Interface (UHCI). This includes support that allows legacy software to use a USB-based keyboard and mouse. The USB supports two stacked connectors on the rear panel. These ports are built into the ICH, as standard USB ports.
The ICH is USB revision 1.1 compliant. USB works only if the USB interface has been enabled within the HP Setup
program. Currently, only the Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows 98 operating systems provide support for the USB.

The Microsoft Supplement 2.1 software (called USBSupp.exe), which provides support for the Universal Serial Bus for Windows 95 Software Release (SR) 2.0, can be obtained from the Hewlett-Packard World Wide Web site at:
http://www.hp.com/go/kayaksupport.
AC’97 Controller
This controller, even though available in the ICH, is not used. The HP Kayak PC Workstation uses the dedicated dual chip PCI solution of the CS4280 audio controller and the CS4297 Codec Audio Codec ‘97 (AC’97).
Refer to page 54
for information about the CS4280 and CS4297 audio
solution.
IDE Controller
The IDE controller is implemented as part of the ICH chip and has PCI­Master capability. Two independent ATA/66 IDE channels are provided with two connectors per channel. Two IDE devices (one master and one slave) can be connected per channel. In order to guarantee data transfer integrity, Ultra-ATA cables must be used for Ultra-ATA modes (Ultra-ATA/33 and Ultra-ATA/66).
The PIO IDE transfers of up to 14 Mbytes/sec and Bus Master IDE transfer rates of up to 66 Mbytes/sec are supported. The IDE controller integrates 16 x 32-bit buffers for optimal transfers.
It is possible to mix a fast and a slow device, such as a hard disk drive and a CD-ROM, on the same channel without affecting the performance of the fast device. The BIOS automatically determines the fastest configuration that each device supports.
DMA Controller
The seven-channel DMA controller incorporates the functionality of two 82C37 DMA controllers. Channels 0 to 3 are for 8-bit count-by-byte transfers, while channels 5 to 7 are for 16-bit count-by-word transfers (refer to table on page 115
for allocated DMA channel allocations). Any two of the
seven DMA channels can be programmed to support fast Type-F transfers. The ICH DMA controller supports the LPC (Low Pin Count) DMA. Single,
Demand, V erify and Incremental modes are supported on the LPC interface. Channels 0-3 are 8-bit, while channels 5-7 are 16-bit. Channel 4 is reserved as a generic bus master request.
Page 52
52
2 System Board
The Input/Output Controller Hub (82801AA)
Interrupt Controller
The Interrupt controller is equivalent in function to the two 82C59 interrupt controllers. The two interrupt controllers are cascaded so that 14 external and two internal interrupts are possible. In addition, the ICH supports a serial interrupt scheme and also implements the I/O APIC controller . A table on page 115
shows how the master and slave controllers are connected.
Timer/Counter Block
The timer/counter block contains three counters that are equivalent in function to those found in one 82C54 programmable interval counter/timer. These three counters are combined to provide the system timer function, and speaker tone. The 14.318 MHz oscillator input provides the clock source for these three counters.
Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller
Incorporated in the ICH, the APIC can be used in either single-processor or multi-processor systems, while the standard interrupt controller is used in single-processor systems.
Real-Time Clock
The RTC is 146818A-compatible, with 256 bytes of CMOS. The RTC performs two key functions: keeping track of the time of day and storing system data.
The RTC operates on a 32.768 kHz cry stal and a separate 3V lithium battery that provides up to 5 years of protection. It also supports two lockable memory ranges. By setting bits in the configuration space, two 8-byte ranges can be locked to read and write accesses. This prevents unauthorized reading of passwords or other security information. Another feature is a date alarm allowing for a schedule wake-up event up to 30 days in advance.
Enhanced Power Management
The ICH’s power management functions include enhanced clock control, local and global monitoring support for 14 individual devices, and various low-power (suspend) states. A hardware-based thermal management circuit permits software-independent entry points for low-power states.
The ICH includes full support for the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) specifications.

The Hardware Monitoring ASIC chip is a sensor dedicated to the processor temperature. This chip uses the thermal diodes integrated into each processor cartridge and makes the temperature information available through the SMBus.
Serial EEPROM
This is the non-volatile memory which holds the default values for the CMOS memory (in the event of battery failure).When installing a new system board, the Serial EEPROM will have a blank serial number field. This will be detected automatically by the BIOS, which will then prompt the user for the serial number which is printed on the identification label on the back of the PC Workstation. The computer uses 16KBytes of Serial EEPROM implemented in a single chip. Serial EEPROM is ROM in which one byte at a time can be returned to its unprogrammed state by the application of appropriate electrical signals. In effect, it can be made to behave like very slow, non-volatile RAM. It is used for storing the tatoo string, the serial number, and the parameter settings for the Setup program as well as MaxiLife firmware.
Main PLL
The registers of the main PLL are accessed through the SMBus. These registers control the PLL clock signal outputs and are write-only. Writing over the SMBus may be destructive to the PC W orkstation as it allows access to information necessary to the Sy stem BIOS, without which the system will not run.

HP MaxiLife Hardware Monitoring Chip
MaxiLife is a hardware monitoring chip which is resident on the system board. Its responsibility includes On/Off and reset control, status panel management (LEDs), hardware monitoring (temperature and voltage), early diagnostics (CPU, memory, PLLs, boot start), run-time diagnostics (CPU errors), and other miscellaneous functions (such as special OK/FAIL symbols based on a smiling face for the Kayak XM600 Series 2 Minitower models).
The integrated microprocessor includes a Synopsys cell based on Dallas “8052” equivalent, a 2 KB boot ROM, 256 bytes of data RAM, an I
2
C cell, an Analog-to-Digital (ADC) with 5 entries, and an additional glue logic for interrupt control, fan regulation, and a status panel control.
MaxiLife downloads its code in 96 milliseconds from an I
2
C serial EEPROM. The total firmware (MaxiLife 8051-code, running in RAM) size is 14 KB. As it exceeds the 2 KB program RAM space, a paging mechanism will swap code as it is required, based on a 512 byte buffer. The first 2 KB pages of firmware code is critical because it controls the initial power on/reset to boot the system. This initial page is checked with a null-checksum test and the presence of MaxiLife markers (located just below the 2 KB limit).
MaxiLife is not accessible in I/O space or memory space of the system platform, but only through the SMBUS (which is a sub-set of the I
2
C bus),
via the ICH. Its I
2
C cell may operate either in Slave or Master mode,
switched by firmware, or automatically in the event of ‘Arbitration’ loss. As a monitoring chip, MaxiLife reports critical errors at start-up, and is
therefore powered by Vstandby (3.3V) power. For MaxiLife to work correctly, the PC Workstation must always be connected to a grounded outlet. This enables the PC Workstation’s hardware monitoring chip to be active, even if the system has been powered off.

communications bus to control the integrated circuit boards.
NOTE MaxiLife is powered by VSTBY. This means that it is functional as soon as the
power cord is plugged in. For MaxiLife to work correctly , the PC Workstation must always be connected to a grounded outlet.

FirmWare Hub (82802AA)
The FWH includes two hardware interfaces:
FirmWare Hub interface.
Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux) interface.
The IC (Interface Configuration) pin on the FWH provides the control between these interfaces. The interface mode needs to be selected prior to power-up or before return from reset (RST# or INIT# low to high transition).
The FWH interface works with the ICH during system operation, while the A/A Mux interface is designed as a programming interface for component pre-programming.
An internal CUI (Command User Interface) serves as the control center between the FWH and A/A Mux interfaces, and internal operation of the non-volatile memory . A valid command sequence written to the CUI initiates device automation. An internal WSM (Write State Machine) automatically executes the algorithms and timings necessary for block erase and program operations.

Host Bus
Host Bus
The Host bus of the Pentium III processors, also referred to as the FSB (Front Side Bus), is implemented in the AGTL (Assisted Gunning Transceiver Logic)+ technology. This technology features open-drain signal drivers that are pulled-up to 1.5 V through resistors at bus extremities; these resistors also act as bus terminators, and are integrated in the processor.
If only one processor is installed, a processor terminating card must be installed in the second processor slot.
The supported operating frequencies of the AGTL+ bus are 100 MHz or 133 MHz. The width of the data bus is 64 bits, while the width of the address is 36 bits. Along with the operating frequencies, the processor voltage is set automatically.
The control signals of the Host bus allow the implementation of a “split - transaction” bus protocol. This allows the Pentium III processor to send its request (for example, for the contents of a given memory address) and then to release the bus, rather than waiting for the result, thereby allowing it to

accept another request. The MCH, as target device, then requests the bus again when it is ready to respond, and sends the requested data packet. Up to six transactions are allowed to be outstanding at any given time.
For the Host bus to run at 133 MHz while respecting the specified signal and timings, a distributed mechanism is used on each AGTL+ signal. The bus is routed with a “Y” topology.
Intel Pentium III Processor
HP Kayak XM600 Series 2 PC Workstations are supplied with a Pentium III processor and an integrated VRM (Voltage Regulator Module) on the sy stem board. Because these PC Workstations do not have any VRM sockets, a VRM does not need to be installed.
The Pentium III processor has several features that enhance performance:
Dual Independent Bus architecture, which combines a dedicated 64-bit L2 cache bus (supporting i256 KB) plus a 64-bit system bus.
MMX technology, which gives higher performance for media, communications and 3D applications.
Dynamic execution to speed up software performance.
Internet Streaming SIMD Extensions for enhanced floating point and 3D application performance.
Processor Serial Number is an electronic number incorporated in the processor. If enabled, the Processor Serial Number can serve as a means of identifying the system. By default, this option is set to Disabled in the Setup program.
Uses multiple low-power states, such as AutoHALT , Stop-Grant, Sleep and Deep Sleep to conserve power during idle times.
The Pentium III processor (core and cache memory) is packaged in a flip-chip pin grid array, or FC-PGA, that plugs into a PGA370 socket (370-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket).
Processor Clock
The 100/133 MHz Host Bus clock is provided by a PLL. The processor core clock is derived from the Host Bus by applying a “ratio”. This ratio is programmed by the system board. The processor then applies this ratio to the Host Bus clock to generate its CPU core frequency.
In a dual-processor system, the CPU core to FSB frequency ratio is always the same for the two processors ensuring that the two processors will alway s run at the same speed.
Page 66
66
2 System Board
Host Bus
Bus Frequencies
There is a 14.318 MHz crystal oscillator on the system board. This frequency is multiplied to 133 MHz by a phase-locked loop. This is further scaled by an internal clock multiplier within the processor. The bus frequency and the processor voltage are set automatically.
Voltage Regulation Module (VRM)
Two VRMs are integrated on the system board complying with VRM specification, rev. 8.4. High-current and low voltage processors are supported.
Processors require a dedicated power voltage to supply the CPU core and L2 cache. Each processor codes through Voltage Identification (VID) pins with a required voltage level of 1.30 V to 2.05 V. Each VID set is decoded by the VRM on the sy stem board that in return supplies the required power voltage to the processor. It should be noted, however, that voltage may vary from one processor model to another.
Optional Second Processor
Single processor models can be upgraded to a dual processor system by installing a second processor in the vacant socket. The second processor must be a Pentium III FC-PGA processor of the same speed and Level 2 cache memory capacity as the first, and same Level 2 cache voltage.
NOTE When upgrading a processor or installing a second processor, the processor
type and speed is automatically recognized by the BIOS. This means that no particular switch settings are required.
Upgrading a single processor to a dual processor system on Windows NT platforms is made easier with the HP DualExpress! application which is included in the HP processor application kit.
Installing a second processor is only advantageous when the software can make use of parallel activity. In particular, you need to be running a multi­threaded operating system that supports multiprocessing (one that is MPS- ready), such as Windows NT. The Windows NT operating system makes the best use of the Pentium III 32-bit architecture (though other operating systems will also show some benefit if 32-bit application programs are run).
The two processors must be operating at the same speed.
Configuring for Multi-Processing
HP Kayak XM600 Series 2 PC Workstations support Symmetric Multi­Processing (SMP). When adding a second processor, it is automatically detected so there is no specific configuration required.
Page 67

2 System Board
Host Bus
The “mono-processing” mode has been implemented in order to support operating systems that rely on the “legacy” interrupt controller 82C59 and are not aware of I/O APIC controller operation. Refer to page 117
for
further details.
Cache Memory
There can be two integrated circuits sealed within a single Pentium III package. One of these contains the Level-2 (L2) cache memory chip; the other contains the processor, which itself includes Level-1 (L1) cache memory.
The L1 cache memory has a total capacity of 32KB (16 KB data, 16 KB instructions). Depending on the model, the L2 cache memory could have a capacity of 512 KB or i256 KB, and is composed of four-way set-associative static RAM. Data is stored in lines of 32 bytes (256 bits). Thus two consecutive 128-bit transfers with the main memory are involved in each transaction.
The L2 cache is composed of a TagRam and Burst-pipelined Synchronous Static RAM (BSRAM) memories and is implemented with multiple die. Transfer rates between the processor’s core and L2 cache can be either:
Same as the processor core clock frequency (full speed) for i256 KB and scale with the processor core frequency.
One-half the processor core clock frequency for 512 KB and scale with the processor core frequency.
Both the TagRam and BSRAM receive clocked data directly from the processor’s core.
The processor includes a dedicated L2 cache bus, thus maintaining the dual independent bus architecture to deliver high bus bandwidth and high performance.
The amount of cache memory is set by Intel at the time of manufacture, and cannot be changed.

Default Settings You Can Change For The Ultra2 SCSI Adapter
The following two tables show the configuration settings that can be changed. The first table shows the global settings which impact the host adapter and all SCSI devices connected to it. The second table shows the device settings which apply to individual devices.
Settings for the Host Adapter
and All Devices
Default Settings Description
SCAM Support Off LSI Logic BIOS version 4.x and above supports SCSI Plug and Play protocol called
SCAM (SCSI Configured Automatically).
Parity Checking On LSI Logic PCI to SCSI host adapters always generate parity, but some SCSI
devices do not. For this reason, parity checking can be disabled (Off).
1
1.
When disabling parity checking, you may have to disable disconnects for certain devices as parity checking for the re-selection phase is not disabled. If a device does not generate parity, and it disconnects, the I/O never completes because the re-selection never completes.
Host Adapter SCSI ID 7 It is not recommended to change the host adapter ID from the default value of 7. Scan Order Low to High
(0-Max)
Informs the host adapter BIOS and device drivers to scan the SCSI bus from low (0 to max) SCSI ID, or from high to low (max to 0) SCSI ID. If there is more than one device on a SCSI bus, changing the device order changes the drive letters
which are assigned to them by the system. This may change the boot order. Removable Media Support None Only used when removable disks are installed. CHS Mapping SCSI Plug and Play

MB/sec, 40 MB/sec, or 80 MB/sec.
Data Width 16 Sets the maximum SCSI data width at which a 16-bit host adapter negotiates. The
host adapter and SCSI device must agree on a width at which they can both operate. For example, for a 16-bit device on a 8-bit wide cable (bus), the width at which they can both operate is 8-bits. Similarly, for an 8-bit device on a 16-bit wide cable (bus), the width at which they can both operate is 8-bits.
Disconnect On Enables or disables disconnects for the device.
To optimize SCSI bus performance, this option should be set to On.
This should only be set to Off for troubleshooting purposes. Read Write I/O Timeout (seconds) 10 Enters a read write time-out value in seconds for the device. Scan for Devices at Boot Time Yes Specifies whether the device is scanned for at boot time. Scan for SCSI LUNs Yes More advanced SCSI devices can have several logical units (LUNs). This option lets
you specify whether SCSI LUNs are scanned for at boot time. Queue Tags On Specifies whether queue tags are enabled or disabled. In a multi-tasking
environment this option must be set to Yes. It should only be disabled for
troubleshooting. Initial Boot Device No This setting cannot be modified.

Field
Default
Settings
Description
SCSI Parity Yes Indicates whether SCSI parity is enabled for an adapter. When disabled, it is also necessary to
disable disconnects for all devices, as parity checking for the reselection phase is not disabled. If a non-parity generating device disconnects, its operation will never complete because the reselection fails due to parity error.
Host SCSI ID 7 Indicates the SCSI identifier of an adapter. It is not recommended to change the host adapter ID
from the default value of 7.
SCSI Bus Scan Order Low to High
(0 to Max)
Indicates the order in which to scan SCSI identifiers on an adapter. Changing this item will affect drive letter assignment(s) if more than one device is attached to an adapter.
Removable Media Support
None Specifies the removable media support option for an adapter. Removable media support only applies
to devices that report themselves as a hard drive. It does not apply to CD-ROM devices or Magnetic Optical devices.
None indicates no removable media support whether the drive is selected as first (BBS), or is first in the scan order (non-BBS).
Boot Drive Only provides removable media support for a removable hard drive if it is first in the scan order.
With Media Installed provides removable media support regardless of the drive number assignment.
CHS Mapping SCSI Plug and
Play Mapping
Defines the cylinder head sector (CHS) values that are mapped onto an un-partitioned disk. SCSI Plug and Play Mapping automatically determines the most efficient and compatible mapping. Alternate CHS Mapping utilizes an alternate, possibly less efficient mapping that may be required if a
device is moved between adapters from different vendors. CCCCaaaauuuuttttiiiion
onon
on:::: Neither of these options has any effect after a disk has been partitioned using the FDISK command. The FDISK utility is a tool that the user can use to delete partition entries, one or all of them. If all partition entries are deleted, it is necessary to reboot to clear memory or the old partitioning data will be reused, thus nullifying the previous operation. Use care to ensure that the correct disk is the target of an FDISK command.
Spinup Delay (secs.) 2 Indicates the delay in seconds between spinups of devices attached to an adapter. Staggered spinups
balance the total electrical current load on the system during boot. The default value is 2 seconds.
Secondary Cluster Server
No Indicates whether an adapter has one or more devices attached that are shared with one or more
other adapters and therefore, the Symbios SCSI BIOS should avoid SCSI bus resets as much as possible.
This option allows the user to enable an adapter to join a cluster of adapters without doing any SCSI bus resets. This is a requirement for Microsoft Cluster Server. The default value is No with an alternate option of Yes.
Termination Control Auto If available, the field indicates whether an adapter has automatic termination control.
Auto means that the adapter automatically determines whether it should enable or disable its termination. Auto is the default state unless termination is done manually, in which case, the configuration is Off.

Field Default Settings Description
MT/Sec 80 Indicates the maximum synchronous data transfer rate in megatransfers per second. Data Width 16 Maximum data width in bits. Scan ID Yes Indicates whether to scan for this SCSI identifier at boot time. Utilizing this setting allows
you to ignore a device. This decreases boot time by disabling inquiry of unused SCSI identifiers.
Set this option to No if there is a device that you do not want to be available to the system. Also, on a bus with only a few devices attached, the user can speed up boot time by changing this setting to No for all unused SCSI IDs.
Scan LUNs Yes Indicates whether to scan for LUNs greater than zero for a device. LUN 0 is always queried.
This option should be used if a multi-LUN device responds to unoccupied LUNs or if it is desired to reduce the visibility of a multi-LUN device to LUN 0 only.
Set this option to No if you have problems with a device that responds to all LUNs whether they are occupied or not. Also, if a SCSI device with multiple LUNs exists on your system but you do not want all of those LUNs to be available to the system, then set this option to No. This will limit the scan to LUN 0.
Disconnect On Indicates whether to allow a device to disconnect during SCSI operations. Some (usually
newer) devices run faster with disconnect enabled, while some (usually older) devices run faster with disconnect disabled.
SCSI Timeout 10 Indicates the maximum allowable time for completion of a SCSI operation in seconds.
Since time-outs provide a safeguard that allows the system to recover should an operation fail, it is recommended that a value greater than zero be used. A value of zero allows unlimited time for an operation to complete and could result in the system hanging (waiting forever) should an operation fail.
NNNNooootttteeee:::: This field is executable and must be selected with the Enter key. You also input the
new value with the number keys from the keyboard, not the number pad.
Queue Tags On This field indicates whether to allow the use of queue tags for a device. Currently the BIOS
does not use queue tags. This item specifies queue tag control to higher level device drivers.
