1 Setting up the system
Server position
Please take note of the following criteria for creating a practical and safe workplace when setting up your computer:
The system can be used anywhere the temperature is suitable for people. However, rooms with humidity over 70%, and dusty or dirty areas are not appropriate. In addition, do not expose the server to any temperatures over +35°C or under +10°C.
Make sure that the cables connecting the server to peripheral devices are not tight.
Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip hazards.
When you save data to your server‘s hard disks or to a floppy disk, they are stored as magnetic information on the media. Make sure that they are not damaged by magnetic or electromagnetic fields.
Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices should be placed on the same surface as the server. This is especially important for impact printers whose vibrations could damage the hard disk.
ATTENTION
In order to fully separate the server from current, the power cord must be removed from the wall outlet

The BIOS Setup program provides configuration options for the I/O controller.
Serial Ports
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board has one serial port connector and one serial port header. The serial port A connector is located on the back panel. The serial port B header is located near the main power connector. The serial ports’ NS16C550-compatible UART supports data transfers at speeds up to 115.2 kb/s with BIOS support.
Parallel Port
The 25-pin D-Sub parallel port connector is located on the back panel. In the BIOS Setup program, the parallel port can be set to the following modes:
• Output only (PC AT-compatible mode)
• Bi-directional (PS/2 compatible)
• EPP
• ECP
Diskette Drive Controller
The I/O controller supports two diskette drives that are compatible with the 82077 diskette drive controller and supports both PC-AT and PS/2 modes.
Keyboard and Mouse Interface
PS/2 keyboard and mouse connectors are located on the back panel. The +5 V lines to these connectors are protected with a PolySwitch circuit that, like a self-healing fuse, reestablishes the connection after an overcurrent condition is removed.
13MAXDATA PLATINUM 100 Server
Page 14
15MAXDATA PLATINUM 100 Server
NOTE
The keyboard is supported in the bottom PS/2 connector and the mouse is supported in the top PS/2 connector. Power to the computer should be turned off before a keyboard or mouse is connected or disconnected.
The keyboard controller contains the AMI keyboard and mouse controller code, provides the keyboard and mouse control functions, and supports password protection for power-on/reset. A power-on/reset password can be specified in the BIOS Setup program.
Hardware Management Subsystem
The Hardware Management features enable the board to be compatible with the Wired for Management (WfM) specification. The board has several hardware management features, including the following:
• Fan monitoring
• Thermal and voltage monitoring
• Chassis intrusion detection
Hardware Management ASIC
The Hardware Management ASIC provides low-cost instrumentation capabilities. The features of the component include:
• Internal ambient temperature sensing
• Remote thermal diode sensing for direct monitoring of processor temperature
• Power supply monitoring (+5 V, +3.3 V, +1.5 V, 3.3 VSB, and Vccp) to detect levels above or below acceptable values
• SMBus interface
Fan Monitoring
The Hardware Management ASIC provides four fan tachometer inputs. Monitoring can be implemented using Intel® LANDesk Client Manager or third-party software.
Real-Time Clock, CMOS SRAM, and Battery
The real-time clock provides a time-of-day clock and a multi-century calendar with alarm features. The real-time clock supports 256 bytes of battery-backed CMOS SRAM in two banks that are reserved for BIOS use.
A coin-cell battery (CR2032) powers the real-time clock and CMOS memory. When the computer is not plugged into a wall socket, the battery has an estimated life of three years. When the computer is plugged in, the standby current from the power supply extends the life of the battery. The clock is accurate to ± 13 minutes/year at 25 ºC with 3.3 VSB applied.
The time, date, and CMOS values can be specied in the BIOS Setup program. The CMOS values can be returned to their defaults by using the BIOS Setup program.
NOTE
If the battery and AC power fail, custom defaults, if previously saved, will be loaded into CMOS RAM at power-on.
14 Description
Page 15
Legacy USB Support
Legacy USB support enables USB devices such as keyboard, mice, and hubs to be used even when the operating system’s USB drivers are not yet available. Legacy USB support is used to access the BIOS Setup program, and to install an operating system that supports USB. By default, Legacy USB support is set to Enabled.
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board has two USB 1.1 ports; one USB peripheral can be connected to each port. For more than two USB devices, an external hub can be connected to any of the ports. Two of the USB ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors; the other two are accessible via the front panel USB header. The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board fully supports UHCI and uses UHCI-compatible software drivers.
NOTE
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not meet FCC Class B requirements, even if no device is attached to the cable. Use shielded cable that meets the requirements for full-speed devices.
Legacy USB support operates as follows:
1. When the user applies power to the computer, legacy support is disabled.
2. POST begins.
3. Legacy USB support is enabled by the BIOS allowing the user to use a USB keyboard to enter and configure the BIOS Setup program and the maintenance menu.
4. POST completes.
5. The operating system loads. While the operating system is loading, USB keyboard and mice are recognized and may be used to configure the operating system. (Keyboard and mice are not recognized during this period if Legacy USB support was set to Disabled in the BIOS Setup program.)
6. After the operating system loads the USB drivers, all legacy and non-legacy USB devices are recognized by the operating system, and Legacy USB support from the BIOS is no longer used.
To install an operating system that supports USB, verify that Legacy USB support in the BIOS Setup program is set to Enabled and follow the operating system’s installation instruc­tions.
NOTE
Legacy USB support is for keyboard, mice, and hubs only. Other USB devices are not supported in legacy mode.
15MAXDATA PLATINUM 100 Server

17MAXDATA PLATINUM 100 Server
IDE Support
IDE Interfaces
The ICH2’s IDE controller has two independent bus-mastering IDE interfaces that can be independently enabled. The IDE interfaces support the following modes:
• Programmed I/O (PIO): processor controls data transfer.
• 8237-style DMA: DMA offloads the processor, supporting transfer rates of up to 16 MB /sec.
• Ultra DMA: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates of up to 33 MB/sec.
• ATA-66: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates of up to 66 MB/sec. ATA-66 protocol is similar to Ultra DMA and is device driver compatible.
• ATA-100: DMA protocol on IDE bus allows host and target throttling. The ICH2’s ATA­ 100 logic can achieve transfer rates up to 100 MB/sec.
NOTE
ATA-66 and ATA-100 are faster timings and require a specialized cable to reduce reections, noise, and inductive coupling.
The IDE interfaces also support ATAPI devices (such as CD-ROM drives) and ATA devices using the transfer modes.
The BIOS supports Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and Extended Cylinder Head Sector (ECHS) translation modes. The drive reports the transfer rate and translation mode to the BIOS.
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board supports Laser Servo (LS-120) diskette technology through the IDE interfaces. An LS-120 drive can be congured as a boot device by setting the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu to one of the following:
• ARMD-FDD (ATAPI removable media device – oppy disk drive)
• ARMD-HDD (ATAPI removable media device – hard disk drive)
BIOS
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board uses an Intel®/AMI BIOS that is stored in the Firmware Hub (FWH) and can be updated using a disk-based program. The FWH contains the BIOS Setup program, POST, the PCI auto-conguration utility, and Plug and Play support.
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board supports system BIOS shadowing, allowing the BIOS to execute from 64-bit onboard write-protected system memory.
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code. The initial production BIOS is identied as PT84510A.86B.
When the MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board’s jumper is set to conguration mode and the server is powered-up, the BIOS compares the processor version and the microcode version in the BIOS and reports if the two match.
PCI Auto Configuration
The BIOS can automatically configure PCI devices. PCI devices may be onboard or add-in cards. Auto configuration lets a user insert or remove PCI cards without having to configure the system. When a user turns on the system after adding a PCI card, the BIOS automatically configures interrupts, the I/O space, and other system resources. Any interrupts set to Available in Setup are considered to be available for use by the add-in card. Auto configuration information is stored in ESCD format.
16 Description
Page 17
PCI IDE Support
If you select Auto in the BIOS Setup program, the BIOS automatically sets up the two PCI IDE connectors with independent I/O channel support. The IDE interface supports hard drives up to ATA-66/100 and recognizes any ATAPI compliant devices, including CD-ROM drives, tape drives, and Ultra DMA drives.
The BIOS determines the capabilities of each drive and congures them to optimize capacity and performance. To take advantage of the high capacities typically available today, hard drives are automatically congured for Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and to PIO Mode 3 or 4, depending on the capability of the drive. You can override the auto-conguration options by specifying manual conguration in the BIOS Setup program.
To use ATA-66/100 features the following items are required:
• An ATA-66/100 peripheral device
• An ATA-66/100 compatible cable
• ATA-66/100 operating system device drivers
NOTE
ATA-66/100 compatible cables are backward compatible with drives using slower IDE transfer protocols. If an ATA-66/100 disk drive and a disk drive using any other IDE transfer protocol are attached to the same cable, the maximum transfer rate between the drives is reduced to that of the slowest device.
Language Support
The BIOS Setup program and help messages are supported in two languages: US English and Spanish. Additional languages may be flashed in if desired (German, Italian, and French available). The default language is US English, which is present unless another language is selected in the BIOS Setup program.
Custom Splash Screen
During POST, an Intel splash screen is displayed by default. This splash screen can be replaced with a custom splash screen. A utility is available from Intel to assist with creating a custom splash screen. The custom splash screen can be programmed into the flash memory using the BIOS upgrade utility. Information about this capability is available on the Intel Support World Wide Web site.
Boot Options
In the BIOS Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a diskette drive, hard drives, CD-ROM, or the network. The default setting is for the diskette drive to be the rst boot device, the hard drive second, and the ATAPI CD-ROM third. The fourth device is disabled.
CD-ROM and Network Boot
Booting from CD-ROM is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable CD-ROM format specification. Under the Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program, ATAPI CD-ROM is listed as a boot device. Boot devices are defined in priority order. Accordingly, if there is not a bootable CD in the CD-ROM drive, the system will attempt to boot from the next defined drive.
The network can be selected as a boot device. This selection allows booting from the on­board NIC or a network add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed.
17MAXDATA PLATINUM 100 Server
Page 18
19MAXDATA PLATINUM 100 Server
Booting Without Attached Devices
For use in embedded applications, the BIOS has been designed so that after passing the POST, the operating system loader is invoked even if the following devices are not present:
• Video adapter
• Keyboard
• Mouse
Fast Booting Systems with Intel® Rapid BIOS Boot
These factors affect system boot speed:
• Selecting and configuring peripherals properly
• Using an optimized BIOS, such as the Intel® Rapid BIOS
Intel® Rapid BIOS Boot
Using the following BIOS Setup program settings reduces the POST execution time. In the Boot Menu:
• Set the hard disk drive as the first boot device. As a result, the POST does not first seek a diskette drive, which saves about one second from the POST execution time.
• Disable Quiet Boot, which eliminates display of the logo splash screen. This could save several seconds of painting complex graphic images and changing video modes.
• Enabled Intel® Rapid BIOS Boot. This feature bypasses memory count and the search for a diskette drive.
NOTE
It is possible to optimize the boot process to the point where the system boots so quickly that the Intel logo screen (or a custom logo splash screen) will not be seen. Monitors and hard disk drives with minimum initialization times can also contribute to a boot time that might be so fast that necessary logo screens and POST messages cannot be seen.
This boot time may be so fast that some drives might be not be initialized at all. If this condition should occur, it is possible to introduce a programmable delay ranging from three to 30 seconds (using the Hard Disk Pre-Delay feature of the Advanced Menu in the IDE Configuration Submenu of the BIOS Setup program).
BIOS Security Passwords
The BIOS includes security features that restrict whether the BIOS Setup program can be accessed and who can boot the server. A supervisor password and a user password can be set for the Setup menu and for booting the server, with the following restrictions:
• The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all Setup options. If only the supervisor password is set, pressing <Enter> at the password prompt of Setup gives the user restricted access to Setup.
• If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, you must enter either the supervisor password or the user password to access Setup. Setup options are then available for viewing and changing depending on whether the supervisor or user password was entered.
• Setting a user password restricts who can boot the server. The password prompt is displayed before the server is booted. If only the supervisor password is set, the server boots without asking for a password. If both passwords are set, you can enter either pass­ word to boot the server.

System Management BIOS (SMBIOS)
SMBIOS is a Server Management Interface (DMI) compliant method for managing computers in a managed network.
The main component of SMBIOS is the Management Information Format (MIF) database, which contains information about the computing system and its components. Using SMBIOS, a system administrator can obtain the system types, capabilities, operational status, and installation dates for system components. The MIF database denes the data and provides the method for accessing this information. The BIOS enables applications such as third-party management software to use SMBIOS.
The BIOS stores and reports the following SMBIOS information:
• BIOS data, such as the BIOS revision level
• Fixed-system data, such as peripherals, serial numbers, and asset tags
• Resource data, such as memory size, cache size, and processor speed
• Dynamic data, such as event detection and error logging
Non-Plug and Play operating systems, such as Windows® NT, require an additional interface for obtaining the SMBIOS information. The BIOS supports an SMBIOS table interface for such operating systems. Using this support, an SMBIOS service-level application running on a non-Plug and Play operating system can obtain the SMBIOS information.
Power Management Features
Power management is implemented at several levels, including:
• Software support through Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
• Hardware support:
– Power connector
– Fan connectors
– LAN wake capabilities
– Instantly Available PC technology
– Resume on Ring
– Wake from USB
– Wake from PS/2 devices

Wake on LAN Technology
Network adapters that are PCI 2.2 compliant assert the wake-up signal using the PCI bus signal PME# (pin A19 on the PCI bus connectors).
CAUTION
For Wake on LAN technology, the 5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing Wake on LAN technology can damage the power supply.
CAUTION
If the standby current necessary to support multiple wake events from the PCI and/or USB buses exceeds power supply capacity, the server board may lose register settings stored in memory, etc.
Wake on Ring
The operation of Wake on Ring can be summarized as follows:
• Powers up the server from the ACPI S5 state.
• Modem must support PME.
• Requires two calls to access the server: – The first call powers up the server – The second call enables access (when the appropriate software is loaded)
• For external modems, hardware on the server board monitors the ring indicate (RI) input of the serial port.
Resume on Ring
The operation of Resume on Ring can be summarized as follows:
• Resumes operation from the ACPI S1.
• Requires only one call to access the server.
• Detects incoming call similarly for external and internal modems; does not use the Wake on Ring connector.
• Requires modem interrupt be unmasked for correct operation.
ACPI
ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug and Play functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with the MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. ACPI features include:
• Plug and Play (including bus and device enumeration)
• Power management control of individual devices, add-in boards (some add-in boards may require an ACPI-aware driver), video displays, and hard disk drives
• Methods for achieving less than 15-watt system operation in the power-on/standby sleeping state
• A Soft-off feature that enables the operating system to power-off the computer
• Support for multiple wake-up events
• Support for a front panel power and sleep mode switch

System States and Power States
Under ACPI, the operating system directs all system and device power state transitions. The operating system puts devices in and out of low-power states based on user preferences and knowledge of how devices are being used by applications. Devices that are not being used can be turned off. The operating system uses information from applications and user settings to put the system as a whole into a low-power state.
Table 6 lists the power states supported by the Server board board along with the associated system power targets. See the ACPI specification for a complete description of the various system and power states.

Notes:
1. S4 state is dependent on an OS that supports this wake event.
2. For LAN and PME#, S5 is disabled by default in the BIOS Setup program. Setting this option to Power On will enable a wake-up event from LAN in the S5 state.
NOTE
The use of these wake-up events from an ACPI state requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. In addition, software, drivers, and peripherals must fully support ACPI wake events.
Hardware Support
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board provides several power management hardware features, including:
• Power connector
• Fan connectors
• LAN wake capabilities
• Instantly Available PC technology
• Resume on Ring
• Wake from USB
• Wake from PS/2 keyboard
• PME# wake-up support
LAN wake capabilities and Instantly Available PC technology require power from the +5 V standby line. The sections discussing these features describe the incremental standby power requirements for each.
Resume on Ring enables telephony devices to access the computer when it is in a power­managed state. The method used depends on the type of telephony device (external or internal).
CAUTION
Ensure that the power supply provides adequate +5 V standby current if LAN wake capabilities and Instantly Available PC technology features are used. Failure to do so can damage the power supply. The total amount of standby current required depends on the wake devices supported and manufacturing options.
NOTE
The use of Resume on Ring and Wake from USB technologies from an ACPI state requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support.
22 Description
Page 23
Power Connector
When used with an ATX12V or EPS-12 V compliant power supply that supports remote power on/off, the MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board can turn off the system power through software control. When the system BIOS receives the correct command from the operating system, the BIOS turns off power to the computer.
With soft-off enabled, if power to the computer is interrupted by a power outage or a disconnected power cord, when power resumes, the computer returns to the power state it was in before power was interrupted (on or off). The computer’s response can be set using the After Power Failure feature in the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu.
Fan Connectors
Table 8 summarizes the function/operation of the fan connectors.
Table 8. Fan Connector Function/Operation
Connector Description
Processor fan (CPU FAN)
Front and rear chassis fans (FAN1, FAN2, and FAN3)
• +12 V DC connection for a processor fan or active fan heat sink.
• Fan is on in the S0 or S1 state. Fan is off when the system is off or in the S3, S4, or S5 state.
• Wired to a fan tachometer input of the Hardware Management ASIC.
• +12 V DC connection for a system or chassis fan.
• Fan is on in the S0 or S1 state. Fan is off when the system is off or in the S3, S4, or S5 state.
• Wired to a fan tachometer input of the Hardware Management ASIC.
LAN Wake Capabilities
CAUTION
For LAN wake capabilities, the 5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing LAN wake capabilities can dama e the power supply.
LAN wake capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network. The LAN subsystem PCI bus network adapter monitors network trafc at the Media Independent Interface. Upon detecting a Magic Packet frame, the LAN subsystem asserts a wake-up signal that powers up the computer.
Depending on the LAN implementation, the MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board supports LAN wake capabilities with ACPI in the following ways:
• The PCI bus PME# signal for PCI 2.2 compliant LAN designs
• The onboard LAN subsystem
Instantly Available PC Technology
CAUTION
For Instantly Available PC technology, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must be cap­able of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing Instantly Available PC technology can damage the power supply.
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specication. Add-in Board that also support this specication can participate in power management and can be used to wake the computer.
The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and PCI 2.2 compliant add-in cards and drivers.

Figure 4. Location of the Standby Power Indicator LED
Resume on Ring
The operation of Resume on Ring can be summarized as follows:
• Resumes operation from ACPI S1 state
• Requires only one call to access the computer
• Detects incoming call similarly for external and internal modems
• Requires modem interrupt be unmasked for correct operation
Wake from USB
USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 state.
NOTE
Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB.
Wake from PS/2 Devices
PS/2 device activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 state.
PME# Wake-up Support
When the PME# signal on the PCI bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI S1, S4, or S5 state (with Wake on PME enabled in BIOS).

PCI I/O Subsystem
The primary I/O bus for the MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board is PCI, with one independent PCI bus. The PCI bus complies with the PCI Local Bus Specication, Rev 2.2. The PCI bus is directed through the Intel® 82801BA I/O Controller Hub (ICH2). The table below lists the characteristics of the PCI bus.
Table 9. PCI Bus Characteristics
Voltage Width Speed Type Comments
5 V 32-bits 33 MHz Independent Bus Supports full-length
cards
32-bit, 33-MHz PCI Subsystem
All 32-bit, 33-MHz PCI I/O for the MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board is directed through the Intel® 82801BA I/O Controller Hub (ICH2). The PCI bus supports the following embedded devices and connectors:
• 2D/3D Graphics Accelerator: ATI Rage XL Video Controller.
• Two 10/100 Network Interface Controllers: Intel® 82550PM Fast Ethernet Controller.
• ATA-100 controller: Promise Technology PDC20267.
• Two Ultra DMA 33 / ATA 66/100 connectors.
Each of the embedded devices listed above, with exception to the Ultra DMA 33 / ATA 66/100 connectors, will be allocated a GPIO to disable the device.
Device IDs (IDSEL)
Each device under the PCI hub bridge has its IDSEL signal connected to one bit of AD[31:16], which acts as a chip select on the PCI bus segment in configuration cycles. This determines a unique PCI device ID value for use in configuration cycles. The following table shows each IDSEL value for the PCI bus devices and the corresponding device description.

27MAXDATA PLATINUM 100 Server
ATA-100
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board provides an embedded dual channel ATA-100 bus through the use of the Promise Technology PDC20267 ASIC. The PDC20267 ATA-100 controller contains two independent ATA-100 channels that share a single 32-bit, 33-MHz PCI bus master interface as a multifunction device, packaged in a 128-pin PQFP.
The ATA-100 controller supports the following features:
• The scatter / gather mechanism supports both Direct Memory Access (DMA) and Pro-
grammable I/O (PIO) IDE drives and ATAPI devices.
• Support for ATA and ATAPI proposal PIO Mode 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, DMA Mode 0, 1, 2, and
Ultra DMA Mode 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
• The IDE drive transfer rate is capable of up to 100 MB/sec per channel.
• The host interface complies with PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2.
• 32-bit, 33-MHz bus speed and 132 MB/sec sustained transfer rate.
The Promise PDC20267 supports IDE RAID through dual ATA-100 Channels. In a RAID configuration, multiple IDE hard drives are placed into one or more arrays of disks. Each array is seen as an independent disk, though the array may include upwards of two, three, or four drives. The IDE RAID can be configured as follows:
• RAID 0: Striping one to four drives.
• RAID 1: Mirroring two drives.
• RAID 1 +: Spare drive (three drives).
• RAID 0 +: One to four drives are required.
RAID 0 configurations are used for high-performance applications, as it doubles the sustained transfer rate of its drives. RAID 1 configurations primarily used for data protection. It creates an identical drive backup to a secondary drive. Whenever a disk write is performed, the controller sends data simultaneously to a second drive located on a different data channel. With four drives attached to dual ATA-100 channels, two striped drive pairs can mirror each other (RAID 0+1) for storage capacity and data redundancy.
Video Controller
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board provides an ATI Rage XL PCI graphics accelera­tor, along with 8 MB of video SDRAM and support circuitry for an embedded SVGA video subsystem. The ATI Rage XL chip contains a SVGA video controller, clock generator, 2D and 3D engine, and RAMDAC in a 272-pin PBGA. Four 2Mx32 SDRAM chip provides 8 MB of video memory.
The SVGA subsystem supports a variety of modes, up to 1600 x 1200 resolution in 8/16/24/32 bpp modes under 2D, and up to 1024 x 768 resolution in 8/16/24/32 bpp modes under 3D. It also supports both CRT and LCD monitors up to 100 Hz vertical refresh rate.
The MAXDATA PLATINUM Server board provides a standard 15-pin VGA connector and supports disabling of the on-board video through the BIOS Setup menu or when a plug-in video card is installed in the AGP slot or any of the PCI slots.
