2.5 Setting Jumpers
You may configure your card to match the needs of your application 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.
openclosedclosed 2-3
The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows:.
openclosedclosed 2-3
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.

2.10 Installing SODIMMs
NotesThe modules can only fit into a socket one way.
The gold pins must point down into the
SODIMM socket.
The procedure for installing SODIMMs appears below. Please follow
these steps carefully.
1. Make sure that all power supplies to the system are switched off
2. Install the SODIMM card. Install the SODIMM so that its gold pins
PCI-6886 User’s Manual14
point down into the SODIMM socket.
3. Slip the SODIMM into the socket at a 45 degree angle and care-
fully fit the bottom of the card against the connectors.
4. Gently push the SODIMM into a perpendicular position until the
clips on the ends of the SODIMM sockets snap into place.
5. Check to ensure that the SODIMM is correctly seated and all con-
nector contacts touch. The SODIMM should not move around in its
socket.
2.11 ATX power control connector (CN5)
The PCI-6886 support ATX power. CN5 supplies main power (+5V,
+12V, 5VSB), and it is a 6 x 2 power connector, w/Fixed Lock, type:
4200-WS-A1.
NoticeThe PCI-6886 can support ATX feature func-
tion. When the PCI-6886 is used as a stand
alone card, the 12-pin main power connector
(CN5) must be connected to the power supply.
If the PCI-6886 is used with a passive backplane, the main power connector (CN5) should
not be connected as the card will be powered
from the backplane. But when the ATX feature
function is needed, the ATX feature cable (p/n:
1700001276) should be connected with ATX
feature connector on backplane, one side of
1700001276 is 12pin header, it should be connected with CN5; the other side is 3-pin
header, it should be connected with the ATX
feature connector on backplane.
ImportantMake sure that the ATX power supply can take
at least a 10 mA load on the 5 V standby lead
(5VSB). If not, you may have difficulty powering on your system.
15Chapter 2 Installation
2.12 Printer port connector (CN6)
Normally, the parallel port is used to connect the card to a printer. The
PCI-6886 includes a multi-mode (ECP/EPP/SPP) parallel port accessed
via CN6 and a 26-pin flat-cable connector. You will need an adapter cable
if you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The adapter cable has a 26-pin
connector on one end, and a DB-25 connector on the other.
The parallel port is designated as LPT1, and can be disabled or changed to
LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.
The parallel port interrupt channel is designated to be IRQ7.
You can select ECP/EPP DMA channel via BIOS setup.
2.13 CompactFlash Card Socket
The PCI-6886 provides a 50-pin socket for CompactFlash card type I/II.
2.13.1 CompactFlash(CN21)
The CompactFlash card occupies a secondary IDE channel which can be
enabled/disabled via the BIOS settings.
2.14 Floppy drive connector (CN4)
You can attach up to two floppy drives to the PCI-6886’s on-board controller. You can use any combination of 5.25” (360 KB and 1.2 MB) and/
or 3.5” (720 KB, 1.44 MB, and 2.88 MB) drives.
A 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable is required for a dual-drive
system. On one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the
other end are two sets of floppy disk drive connectors. Each set consists
of a 34-pin flat-cable connector (usually used for 3.5” drives) and a
printed-circuit board connector (usually used for 5.25” drives).
2.14.1 Connecting the floppy drive
1.Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN4. Make sure that the
red wire corresponds to pin one on the connector.
2.Attach the appropriate connector on the other end of the cable to
the floppy drive(s). You can use only one connector in the set. The
set on the end (after the twist in the cable) connects to the A: drive.
The set in the middle connects to the B: drive.
PCI-6886 User’s Manual16
3.If you are connecting a 5.25” floppy drive, line up the slot in the
printed circuit board with the blocked-off part of the cable connec-
tor.
If you are connecting a 3.5” floppy drive, you may have trouble determining which pin is number one. Look for a number printed on the circuit
board indicating pin number one. In addition, the connector on the floppy
drive may have a slot. When the slot is up, pin number one should be on
the right. Check the documentation that came with the drive for more
information.
If you desire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the middle of the
cable as described above.
In case you need to make your own cable, you can find the pin assignments for the board’s connector in Appendix B.
2.15 IDE connector(CN3,CN7)
The PCI-6886 provides two IDE channels to which you can attach up to
four Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics hard disk drives or
CDROM to the PCI-6886’s internal controller. The PCI-6886's IDE controller uses a PCI interface. This advanced IDE controller supports faster
data transfer, PIO Mode 3 or Mode 4, UDMA 33/66/100 mode.
2.15.1 Connecting the hard drive
Connecting drives is done in a daisy-chain fashion. It requires one of two
cables (not included in this package), depending on the drive size. 1.8"
and 2.5" drives need a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 44-pin flat-cable connector. 3.5"
drives use a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 40-pin connector.
Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray.
1.Connect one end of the cable to CN3,CN7. Make sure that the red
(or blue) wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connector, which is
labeled on the board (on the right side).
2.Plug the other end of the cable into the Enhanced IDE hard drive,
with pin 1 on the cable corresponding to pin 1 on the hard drive.
(See your hard drive’s documentation for the location of the con-
nector.)
If desired, connect a second drive as described above.
Unlike floppy drives, IDE hard drives can connect to either end of the
cable. If you install two drives, you will need to set one as the master and
one as the slave by using jumpers on the drives. If you install only one
drive, set it as the master.

4.1 System test and initialization
These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines encounter an error during the tests, you will either hear a few short beeps or see
an error message on the screen. There are two kinds of errors: fatal and
non-fatal. The system can usually continue the boot up sequence with
non-fatal errors. Non-fatal error messages usually appear on the screen
along with the following instructions:
press <F1> to CONTINUE
Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the bootup
sequence.
4.1.1 System configuration verification
These routines check the current system configuration against the values
stored in the board’s CMOS memory. If they do not match, the program
outputs an error message. You will then need to run the BIOS setup program to set the configuration information in memory.
There are three situations in which you will need to change the CMOS
settings:
1.You are starting your system for the first time
2.You have changed the hardware attached to your system
3.The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration informa-
tion has been erased.
The PCI-6886 Series' CMOS memory has an integral lithium battery
backup. The battery backup should at least three years in normal service,
but when it finally runs down, you will need to replace the complete unit.
