or Amplitude Shift Keyed IR (ASKIR) interface. If you want to use
the IrDA port, you have to configure the FIR or ASKIR model in
the BIOS’s Peripheral Setup’s COM2. Then the normal RS-232
COM2 will be disabled.
This manual discusses Award's Setup program built into the ROM BIOS. The
Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This
special information is then stored in battery-backed RAM so that it retains the
Setup information when the power is turned off.
4.2 Starting Setup
The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer.
The BIOS reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the
process of checking out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS
will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then launch and turn
control over to the operating system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two
ways:
1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or
2. by pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears briefly at the
bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self Test).
Press DEL to enter SETUP.
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup,
restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET"
button on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing
<Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Delete> keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time
and the system does not boot, an error message will be displayed and you will
again be asked to...
In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter> to select, use
the PageUp and PageDown keys to change entries, press <F1> for help and
press <Esc> to quit. The following table provides more detail about how to
navigate in the Setup program using the keyboard.

4.4 Getting Help
Press F1 to pop up a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to
use and the possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window
press <Esc> or the F1 key again.
If, after making and saving system changes with Setup, you discover that your
computer no longer is able to boot, the Award BIOS supports an override to the
CMOS settings which resets your system to its defaults.
The best advice is to only alter settings which you thoroughly understand. To this
end, we strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the chipset
defaults. These defaults have been carefully chosen by both Award and your
systems manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum performance and
reliability. Even a seemingly small change to the chipset setup has the potential
for causing you to use the override.
4.5 Main Menu
Once you enter the AwardBIOS™ CMOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu
will appear on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from
several setup functions and two exit choices. Use the arrow keys to
select among the items and press <Enter> to accept and enter the submenu.

Menu Level
This section allows you to configure the system based on the specific
features of the installed chipset. This chipset manages bus speeds and
access to system memory resources, such as DRAM and the external
cache. It also coordinates communications between the conventional
ISA bus and the PCI bus. It must be stated that these items should
never need to be altered. The default settings have been chosen
because they provide the best operating conditions for your system.
Advanced DRAM Control 1 / 2 Settings
The first chipset settings deal with CPU access to dynamic random
access memory (DRAM). The default timings have been carefully
chosen and should only be altered if data is being lost. Such a scenario
might well occur if your system had mixed speed DRAM chips installed

Voltage Monitoring
The chipset reserves 7 inputs for monitoring working voltages
from various sources in the system. These voltages may
includes CPU voltage, power pins of the ATX power (+/-12V, +/5V, 3.3V...) and others.
Generic names (Voltage Name) are given to these items
because where these pins are connected depends on different
platforms you are using.
The chipset reserves 2 inputs for monitoring temperatures that
are typically the CPU & system temperatures.
Temperature1: Temperature from system , but CN6 must
connected to external sensor
Temperature2: Temperature from CPU
Generic names are given for the same reason as Voltage 0-7.
Fan 1 Speed
The chipset reserves 1 inputs for monitoring FAN speeds in the
system. Usually, one FAN is applied to cool down the CPU and
the other one is applied by different purpose.
Generic names are given for the same reason as Voltage monitoring.
You can set either supervisor or user password, or both of then. The
differences between are:
supervisor password :
can enter and change the options of the setup menus.
user password
just can only enter but do not have the right to change the options of the
setup menus. When you select this function, the following message will
appear at the center of the screen to assist you in creating a password.
ENTER PASSWORD:
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>.
The password typed now will clear any previously entered password from
CMOS memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the
password again and press <Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort
the selection and not enter a password.
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to
enter the password. A message will confirm the password will be
disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you
can enter Setup freely.
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.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS
to request a password every time your 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 (see Section 3). If the Security
option is set to password will be required both at boot and at entry to
Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter
Setup.
Pressing <Enter> on this item asks for confirmation:
Save to CMOS and EXIT (Y/N)? Y
Pressing “Y” stores the selections made in the menus in
CMOS – a special section of memory that stays on after you turn
your system off. The next time you boot your computer, the
BIOS configures your system according to the Setup selections
stored in CMOS. After saving the values the system is restarted
again.
Exit Without Saving
Pressing <Enter> on this item asks for confirmation:
Quit without saving (Y/N)? Y
This allows you to exit Setup without storing in CMOS any
change. The previous selections remain in effect. This exits the
Setup utility and restarts your computer.
Appendix A. Watch-Dog Timer
The Watchdog Timer is a device to ensure that standalone systems can
always recover from abnormal conditions that cause the system to crash.
These conditions may result from an external EMI or a software bug.
When the system stops working, hardware on the board will perform
hardware reset (cold boot) to bring the system back to a known state.
Three I/O ports control the operation of Watch-Dog Timer.
443 (hex) Write Set Watchdog Time period
443 (hex) Read Enable the refresh the Watchdog Timer.
043/843 (hex) Read Disable the Watch-Dog Timer.
Prior to enable the Watch-Dog Timer, user has to set the time-out period.
The resolution of the timer is 1 second and the range of the timer is from
1 sec to 255 sec. You need to send the time-out value to the I/O port –
443H, and then enable it by reading data from the same I/O port – 443H.
This will activate the timer that will eventually time out and reset the CPU
board. To ensure that this reset condition won’t occur, the Watch-Dog
Timer must be periodically refreshed by reading the same I/O port 443H.
This must be done within the time-out period, please refer to the example
program. Finally, we have to disable the Watch-Dog timer by reading the
I/O port -- 843H or 043H. Otherwise the system could reset
unconditionally.
A tolerance of at least 5% must be maintained to avoid unknown routines
in the operating system (DOS), such as disk I/O that can be very timeconsuming. Therefore if the time-out period has been set to 10 seconds,
the I/O port 443H must be read within 7 seconds.

to do something to fix, it will either sound a beep code or display a message.
If a message is displayed, it will be accompanied by:
PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, CTRL-ALT-ESC OR DEL TO ENTER SETUP
POST Beep
Currently there are two kinds of beep codes in BIOS. This code indicates that a
video error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video screen to
display any additional information. This beep code consists of a single long beep
followed by three short beeps. The other code indicates that your DRAM error
has occurred. This beep code consists of a single long beep repeatedly.
One or more of the following messages may be displayed if the BIOS detects an
error during the POST. This list includes messages for both the ISA and the
EISA BIOS.
CMOS BATTERY HAS FAILED
CMOS battery is no longer functional. It should be replaced.
Checksum of CMOS is incorrect. This can indicate that CMOS has become
corrupt. This error may have been caused by a weak battery. Check the battery
and replace if necessary.
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER
No boot device was found. This could mean that either a boot drive was not
detected or the drive does not contain proper system boot files. Insert a system
disk into Drive A: and press <Enter>. If you assumed the system would boot from

How to Upgrade a New BIOS
You can install an upgrade BIOS for the
can download from the manufacturer’s web site ( www.e-
icp.com.tw ). New BIOS may provide support for new
peripherals ,improvements in performance or fixes to addressed
known bugs.
BIOS Update Procedure:
1. Make a boot disk. Go to the DOS command prompt in MS-DOS
or Windows 9x and, with an available floppy disk in "A", type
"format A: /s" That will format the floppy and transfer the needed
system files to it.
NOTES:
A. This procedure will erase any prior data on that floppy, so
please Proceed accordingly.
B. Typically four files will be transferred, only COMMAND.COM
being visible when running a simple directory listing.
C. Please leave the diskette UN-write protected for the balance of
this procedure.
2. Download the BIOS upgrade file and awdflash.exe utility from a
ICP web site to a temp directory on your hard drive, or directly to
the floppy you made in step 1..
3. Copy ( BIOS file and awdflash.exe )two files to the boot floppy.
4. Reboot the system to the DOS command prompt using the boot
diskette you just made.
5. At the DOS command prompt type , "awdflash filename.xxx",
where filename.xxx is the file name of the BIOS file . Hit enter.
6. Your first option, in sequence, will be to save the old BIOS. We
recommend that you do that in case, for whatever reason, you
decide you don't wish to use the new version once it is installed.
NOTES:
A. If you decide to save the old BIOS, PLEASE make sure you do
NOT save it to the same file name as the new BIOS - if you use
the same BIOS name the old file will be written over the new file
with NO warning prompt. A simple file name to save the old BIOS
to is OLDBIOS.BIN.
B. If you do NOT decide to save the old BIOS, PLEASE at least
write down the version number of the old BIOS and store that
information with your important computer documents. Enter N (for
"no") and skip to step 9.
7. To save the old BIOS, hit Y (for "yes")
8. Enter a name for the OLD BIOS file and hit enter.
NOTE:PLEASE be sure you do NOT save the old BIOS file to the
same file name as the new BIOS - if you use the same BIOS name,
the old file will write over the new BIOS file WITHOUT a warning
prompt. A simple file name for saving the old BIOS to is
OLDBIOS.BIN.
9. Your second option, in sequence, will be whether you want to
flash your BIOS. Enter Y (for "yes").
NOTE: This is the critical step. Once you kit the enter key, do NOT
touch the keyboard, the reset button, or power switch while the
flashing is in progress. There will be bar progressing across the
screen while the flashing is progressing.
10. When the flashing process is complete, you will be asked to
reset or power off the system. Remove the floppy diskette from the
floppy drive and either hit the reset button or the power button.
11. Reboot the system and note that the BIOS version on the initial
boot-up screen has changed to the new BIOS version. Your BIOS
upgrade is now complete.
Recovering Your Old BIOS:
1. Assuming you have the floppy made during the upgrade
procedure noted above, boot the system with that diskette in the
floppy drive. If you do not have floppy made during the upgrade
procedure noted above, you will need to repeat steps 1 though 3
(above) for the version of the BIOS you wish to recover to.
2. Complete steps 4, 5, 6B, 9, 10, and 11 (above) substituting the
name of the BIOS you wish to recover for the upgrade BIOS at
step 5.

Appendix E. ATX Power Supply
The following notes show how to connect ATX Power Supply to the
backplanes and / or the ISBC card.
A. For backplanes with ATX Connector
1. Please, disconnect the AC cord of the Power Supply from the AC
source to prevent sudden electric surge to the board.
2. Please, check the type of your CPU board. All CPU board listed on
the next page support ATX power supply but has two types of power
switch connection:
2.1. ROCKY-3705EV-R2 (through Power Button & +5VSB):
Connect the ATX power supply switch to the pin 9 (power button)
and pin 19,20 (+5VSB) of CN2 on the board.
If you wish to turn off the power supply, please push the ATX
power switch button for about 4 sec. And to turn ON the system,
simply push the button once.
For some SBC without ATX power ON/OFF function, then you can
control the ATX power supply through backplane’s PS ON connector.
Refer to the figure below: for the backplanes with ATX connector,
the connection can be made simply as following:
1. Connect the ON/OFF (ordinary one) switch to Pin 2 (PS ON) and
Pin 3 (GND) of connector ATX
2. You may now turn the power ON/OFF by the power switch
