Chapter 2: Hardware Setup

Preparing the Hardware Installation

To access some components and perform certain service procedures, you must perform the following procedures first.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the equipment, remove the power cord to remove power from the server. The front panel Power On/Standby button does not completely shut off system power. Portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
Unpower the FW-7581 and remove the power cord.1.
Unscrew the 3 threaded screws from the top cover of 2. the FW-7581 System.
Slide the cover backwards and open the cover 3.
Note:
All DIMMs installed must be the same speed 1. (DDR3 1066 or 1333). Do not install DIMMs supporting different speeds. The motherboards can support up to 4 GB 2. memory capacity in maximum. .

Installing the Hard Disk

The system can accommodate one Serial-ATA disks. Follow these steps to install a hard disk into the FW-7581:
Unsrew the 4 screws on the hard disk tray to take out 1. the hard disk tray from the system.
Place hard disk on the hard disk tray and align the holes 2. of the hard disk with the mounting holes on the tray.
Secure the hard disk with 4 mounting screws on the 3. hard disk tray.
Connect the Serial-ATA power and data cables to the 4. hard disk’s power and data connectors respectively.
Plug the Serial-ATA cable to the Serial-ATA Connector 5. on the main board.
upwards.

Driver Installation

On Linux

Follow these instructions when installing the Intel® LAN controller base driver for the in Red Hat® and Linux operating system.
Insert the motherboard/system support CD to the 1. optical drive and mount the optional drive in the Linux platform.
Copy the base driver tar file from the motherboard/2. system support CD to the directory of your local hard disk. The Intel® LAN driver for Linux OS is located in the following directory:
\Driver\LAN_Driver\PRO1000\LINUX. The name format of driver file is “e1000-<Version>.tar.gz”. For example: the file name of driver version 7.0.38 is “e1000-7.0.38. tar.gz”.
Untar/unzip the archive, where <x.x.x> is the version 3. number for the driver tar file:
tar zxf e1000-<x.x.x>.tar.gz
Change to the driver src directory on your system, 4. where <x.x.x> is the version number for the driver tar:
cd e1000-<x.x.x>/src/
Verify that the interface works. Enter the following, 9. where <IP_address> is the IP address for another machine on the same subnet as the interface that is being tested:
ping <IP_address>
Note: The system uses Intel 82574L Ethernet controllers, you could obtain the latest drivers at the Intel download center:
http://www.intel.com/products/ethernet/
Compile the driver module by typing the following 5. command:
make install
The binary will be installed as:6.
/lib/modules/<kernel_version>/kernel/drivers/net/ e1000.o
The install locations listed above are the default locations. They might not be correct for certain Linux distributions.
Load the module using either the insmod or modprobe 7. command:
modprobe igb
insmod igb
Note that for 2.6 kernels the insmod command can be used if the full path to the driver module is specified. For example:
insmod /lib/modules/<KERNEL VERSION>/kernel/ drivers/net/igb/igb.ko
With 2.6 based kernels also make sure that older igb drivers are removed from the kernel, before loading the new module:
rmmod igb; modprobe igb
Assign an IP address to the interface by entering the 8. following, where <x> is the interface number:
ifconfig eth<x> <IP_address>

VGA Driver Installation

On the Windows OS

This section provides the instructions on how to install VGA adapter drivers on your windows.
Restart the computer, and then log on with 1. Administrator privileges.
Insert the Drivers and User’s Manual CD to the optical 2. drive.
Browse the contents of the support CD under the 3. directory: \Driver\VGA.
You may need to install the drivers manually if there 4. is no available executable program for installing the drivers automatically.
To install the drivers manually, use the Found New 5. Hardware wizard of the Windows.
During the steps make sure that you choose to install 6. the hardware by manually selecting the drivers that you wish to install. When this option appears, you should select the directory containing the drivers for the VGA adapter.

On Linux

Intel has established the website intellinuxgraphics.org to promote a fully open sourced drivers supporting all video technologies at:

Appendix B

Appendix B: Programming Watchdog Timer

A watchdog timer is a piece of hardware that can be used to automatically detect system anomalies and reset the processor in case there are any problems. Generally speaking, a watchdog timer is based on a counter that counts down from an initial value to zero. The software selects the counter’s initial value and periodically restarts it. Should the counter reach zero before the software restarts it, the software is presumed to be malfunctioning and the processor’s reset signal is asserted. Thus, the processor will be restarted as if a human operator had cycled the power.
For sample watchdog code, see watchdog folder on the
Driver and Manual CD

Appendix C: Setting up Console Redirections

Console redirection lets you monitor and configure a system from a remote terminal computer by re-directing keyboard input and text output through the serial port. This following steps illustrate how to use this feature.
Connect one end of the console cable to console port 1. of the system and the other end to serial port of the Remote Client System.
Configure the following settings in the BIOS Setup 2. menu
BIOS > Advanced > Remote Access Configuration > Serial Port Mode > [115200, 8 , n ,1 ]
Setting up Console Redirection
Configure Console Redirection on the client system. 3. The following illustration is an example on Windows platform:
Click the start button, point to Programs > a. Accessories > Communications and select Hyper Terminal.
Enter any name for the new connection and select b. any icon.
Click OK.c.
From the “Connect to”. Pull-down menu, select the d. appropriate Com port on the client system and click OK.
Select 115200 for the Baud Rate, None. for Flow e. contorl, 8 for the Data Bit, None for Parity Check, and 1 for the Stop Bit.

Programming LAN Bypass

Appendix D: Programming LAN Bypass

The bypass function is used to link two independent Ethernet ports when the system fails or powers off. This means if your system is equipped with a LAN Bypass function, a system failure or power-off event will not interrupt your network traffic. There are typically two statuses for the bypass, one is “Normal” state and the other is “Bypass” status. Lanner provides three methods to enable the LAN Bypass function:
Note: This Bypass in 7581 complies with Lanner Generation 2 bypass
With the BIOS menu1.
Bypass Settings
System Status
LAN Bypass for Port1 and Port 2 LAN Bypass
Enable the bypass
# wdbp.exe –f
Set Watchdog Timer. This command will set the time interval at which the counter will start count down.
# wdbp.exe -wl xxx (xxx: 1-255 sec for timer count down)
Reset Watchdog Timer. This command will reset the watchdog timer’s counter and the bypass status to non­bypass.
#wdbp.exe -wr xxx (xxx: 1-255 sec for timer count down)
Note: For more information, refer to the README file contained within the program’s folder.

Programming the LCM

Appendix E: Programming the LCM

The LCD panel module (LCM) is designed to provide real­time operating status and configuration information for the system. For sample LCM code, see LC M foler on the Driver and Manual CD. The driver and the program library can also be found in the folder.
The system support Parallel Graphic-based LCM. The LCM connects to the motherboard’s parallel port. The LCD screen can display 128x64x1 bit matrix.
Build
To build program source code on Linux platform, use the following steps as a guideline:
Copy the proper makefile from the Driver and Manual 1. CD to your system: Makefile.linux
Type make to build source code:2.
make Makefile (Note: omit the file extensions)
After compiled, the executable programs (plcm_test, Test) and the driver (plcm_drv.ko or plcm_drv.o) will appear in the program’s folder.

Note: For descriptions of the command, refer to
the Readme file contained within the program’s folder.
Note: The OS supported by Lanner Bypass function include platforms based on Linux Kernel series 2.4.x and Linux Kernel series 2.6.x.
Install
#insmod plcm_drv.ko
#mknod /dev/plcm_drv c 241 0
Note: If you cannot install the driver, check whether you have enabled the parallel port in the BIOS setting .
Execution
This section contains sample executable programs that you could test on your platform. It demonstrates some useful functionality that the LCM provides.
plcm_test: This program runs with the following parameters:
./plcm_test [-filename] <BMP file>: displays bmp on LCM
