2-3 HOW TO SET JUMPERS
You can configure your board by setting jumpers. A jumper consists of two or three metal pins with a plastic base mounted on the card, and a small plastic "cap"( with a metal contact inside) to connect the pins. So you can set up your hardware configurati on by "open" or "close" the pins.
The jumper can be combined into sets which called jumper blocks. When the jumpers are all in the block, you have to put them together to set up the hardware configuration. The figure b elow shows how this looks.
JUMPERS AND CAPS
If a jumper has three pins, for examples, labelled PIN1, PIN2, and PIN3. You can connect PIN1 & PIN2 to create one setting and shorting. You can either connect PIN2 & PIN3 to create another setting. The same jumper diagrams are applied all through this manual. The fi gure below shows what the manual diagrams look and what they represent.

The Watchdog Timer can reset the system automatically. It is defined at I/O port write I/O port disable the function, write I/O port command to stop the Watchdog function.
The PC-320 watchdog function : write I/O port address 443 to enable watchdog and write I/O port address 441 to disable watchdog. The timer‘s intervals have a tolerance of 25%, so you should program an introduction that will refresh the timer about every second.
The following program shows you how to program the watch timer in your program.

Chapter 4 AMI BIOS Setup
4-1. INTRODUCTION
This chapter will show you the function of a BIOS in managing the features of your system. The PC-320 Embedded Card is equipped with the BIOS for system chipset from AMI Software Inc. This page briefly explains the function of a BIOS in managing the special features of your system. The following pa ges describe how to use the BIOS for system chipset Setup menu.
Your application programs (such as word processing, spreadsheets, and games) rely on an operating system such as DOS or OS/2 to manage such things as keyboard, monitor, disk drives, and memory.
The operating system relies on a BIOS (Basic Input and Output system), a program stored on a ROM (Read-only Memory) chip, to initialize and configure your computer's hardware. As the interface between the hardware and the operating system, the BIOS enables you to make basic changes to your system's hardware without having to write a new operating system.
The following diagram illustrates the interlocking relationships between the system hardware, BIOS, operating system, and application program:

4-2 RUN CMOS SETUP
The SETUP programs lets you specify your system‘s configuration o f diskette drivers, hard disk drivers, video display, memory, date, and time, and to make setting in the ALI chipset. The SETUP program can only be accessed when the CPU Card has been installed in your system and all necessary power, drive, and display connections have been made. When you turn on your computer, the system will run a memory check, and you can see it counting through the memory on your screen. The following display will also appear on your screen:
As long as this message is present on the screen you may press the < Del> key ( the one that shares the decimal point at bottom of the number keypad) to access the setup program. In a moment, the main manu of the AMI SETUP program will appear on the screen:

SYSTEM BIOS SHADOW CACHEABLE:
When this option is set to Enabled, the contents of the F0000h system memory segment can be read from or written to L2 secondary cache memory. The contents of the F0000h memory segment are always copied from the BIOS ROM to system RAM for faster execution. The settings are Enabled and Disabled. The Optimal default setting is Enabled. The Fail-Safe default setting is Disabled.

TROUBLE SHOOTING FOR SYSTEM ERROR MESSAGE
The following information inform you the error messages and the trouble shooting. Please adjust your systems according to the messages below. And make sure all the components and connectors are in proper position and firmly attached. If the errors still encountered, please contact with your distributor for maintenance.
BEEP 1: REFRESH FAILURE
The memory refresh circuitry is faulty. Reseat the memory SIMMs or DIPs. If the system still beeps, replace the memory.
BEEP 2: PARITY ERROR
Parity error in the base memory ( the first 64 KB block) of memory. Reset the memory SIMMs or DIPs. If the system still beeps, replace the memory.
BEEP 3: BASE 64 KB Memory Failure
Memory failure in the first 64 KB. Reset the memory SIMMs or DIPs. If the system still beeps, replace the memory.
BEEP 4: TIMER NOT OPERATIONAL
A memory failure in the first 64 KB of memory, or Timer 1 is not functioning. The CPU Card must be replaced.
BEEP 5: PROCESSOR ERROR:
Faulty CPU. The CPU must be replaced.
BEEP 6: 8042-Gate A20 Failure:
