H/W Installation

This chapter explains the setup procedures of the IFC-BOX4000 hardware,

including instructions on setting

jumpers and connecting peripherals, switches and

indicators. Be sure to read all

safety precautions before you begin the installation procedure.

IFC-BOX4000 U se r Manua l ver 2.0

2.1 Jumpers

2.1.1 Jumper Description

Board can be configured by setting jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electric circuit. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To close a jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. To open a jumper, you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2 and 3. In this case you would connect either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3.

The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows.

A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your application, contact your local distributor or sales representative before you make any changes. Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most connections.

Warning! To avoid damaging the computer, always turn off the power

supply before setting jumpers.

How to verify Pin1 of the jumper?

1. Please check the M/B carefully, where there is a mark of “1” or white thick line, there is

Pin1.

2. Look into the pad on the back side of the M/B, generally the square side of the pad is Pin1.

4.1 S/W Service Introduction

ICS provides software services as bellow:

4.2 Watchdog program example

A watchdog timer (abbreviated as WDT) is a hardware device which triggers an action, e.g. rebooting the system, if the system does not reset the timer within a specific period of time. The WDT program example provides developers with functions such as starting the timer, resetting the timer, and setting the timeout value if the hardware requires customized timeout values. Please contact our service personnel for program example source code and packaging EXE executable file.

4.2.1 WDT Programming Model

You can use the tool WDT.exe under DOS to test the watchdog function.

Usage: WDT -? : Show help screen WDT -S Value: Set Watchdog as seconds mode, and Value is the time WDT -M Value: Set Watchdog as minutes mode, and Value is the time Example: WDT -S 5 : Set Watchdog as 5 seconds WDT -M 2 : Set Watchdog as 2 minutes

4.3 GPIO program example

A GPIO is a pin that can be used as input or output, when used as output, you can set it output as low or high. Please contact our service personnel for program example source code and packaging EXE executable file. You can use the tool GPIO.exe under DOS to test whether the pin can be used as a GPIO.

Usage: GPIO -? : Show help screen GPIO -I Gpio Num : Set GPIO Port as input GPIO -OH Gpio Num : Set GPIO Port output high GPIO -OL Gpio Num : Set GPIO Port output Low

Example: GPIO -I 1 : Set GPIO 1 as input GPIO -OH 1 : Set GPIO 1 output high GPIO -OL 1 : Set GPIO 1 output Low
