Chapter 2 Hardware Configuration

2-3 HOW TO SET THE JUMPERS

You can configure your board by setting the jumpers. A jumper is consists
of two or three metal pins with a plastic base mounted on the card. By
using a small plastic “cap” (with a metal contact inside), you may connect
the pins. So you can se t up your hardware configuration by “opening” or
“closing” the pi ns.

The jumper can be combined into sets, which called the jumper blocks.
When the jumpers are all in the block, you have to put them together to set
up the hardware c onfiguration. The figure below shows how this looks.

JUMPERS AND CAPS

If a jumper has three pins, for example: labelled PIN1, PIN2, and PIN3.
You can connect PIN1 & PIN2 to create one setting and shorting. Or you
may also connect PIN2 & PIN3 to create another setting. The same jumper
diagrams are applied all through this manual. The figure belo w shows what
the manual diagram looks like and what they represent.

This board has watchdog timer function for monitoring whether the system is

still work or not after a period of time. The user can select watchdog timer
to system reset or NMI (Non Maskable interrupt) depending on the jumper
set in JP6 as described in chapter 2. This is defined at I/O port 443H. When
you want to enable the watchdog timer, please write I/O port 443H, then the
system will either reset itself or perform the NMI function. Likewise, when
you want to disable the function, write I/O port 441H, the system will run
the command to stop the Watchdog function.

The Prox-1550 watchdog function, You must write your program so when it

writes I/O port address 443 for enable watchdog and write I/O port address
441 for disable watchdog. The timer's intervals have a tolerance of 25% so
you should program an instruction that will refresh the timer about every
second.

The following program shows you how to program the watch timer in your

program.

Watchdog enable program:

MOVAX, 000FH (choose the values you need; start from 0)
MOVDX, 0443H

Chapter 5 Award BIOS Setup

5-1. INTRODUCTION

This chapter will show you the function of BIOS in managing the features of
your system. The Prox-1550 P5/6x86 Embedded Card is equipped with the
BIOS for system chipset from Award Software Inc. This page briefly
explains the function of BIOS in managing the special features of your
system. The following pages 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 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:

Chapter 5 Award BIOS Setup

AT BUS CLOCK:

The chipset generates the ISA bus clock (ATCLK) from an internal division
of PCICLK. You can set the speed of the AT bus in terms of a fraction of
the CPU clock speed, or at the fixed speed of 7.16MHz.

L2 TAG RAM SIZE:

The system uses tag bits to determine the status of data in the L2 cache.
Set this field to match the specifications (8 or 10 bits) of the installed tag
RAM chip.

DRAM TIMING:

The value in this field depends on performance parameters of the installed
memory chips (DRAM). Do not change the value from the factory setting
unless you install new memory that has a different performance rating than
the original DRAMs.

SDRAM CAS LATENCY:

When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS
latency depends on the DRAM timing. Do not reset this field from the
default value specified by the system designer.

PIPELINED FUNCTION:

When Enabled, the controller signals the CPU for a new memory address
before all data transfers for the current cycles are complete, resulting in
faster performance.

DRAM DATA INTEGRITY MODE:

Select Parity or ECC (error-correcting code), according to the type of
installed DRAM. The available choices are Disabled, ECC, Parity.

MEMORY HOLE AT 15M-16M:

This item allows you to reserve a certain space in memory for ISA cards for
better performance. This memory must be mapped into the memory s pace
below 16MB. The choices are enabled and disabled to set the support of

ISA LINE BUFFER:

The PCI to ISA Bridge has an 8 byte bi-directional line buffer for ISA or
DMA bus master memory reads from or writes to the PCI bus. When
Enabled, an ISA or DMA bus master can pre-fetch two double words to the
line buffer for a read cycle.

PASSIVE RELEASE:

When Enabled, CPU to PCI bus accesses is allowed during passive release.
Otherwise, the arbiter only accepts another PCI master access to local
DRAM.

DELAY TRANSACTION:

The chipset has an embedded 32-bit posted write buffer to support delay
transactions cycles. Select Enabled to support compliance with PCI
specification version 2.1.

PRIMARY FRAME BUFFER:

Select a size for the PCI frame buffer. The size of the buffer should not
impinge on local memory.

VGA FRAME BUFFER:

When enabled, a fixed VGA frame buffer from A000h to BFFFh and a
CPU-to-PCI write buffer are implemented.

DATA MERGE:

This field controls the word-merge feature for frame buffer cycles. When
enabled, this controller checks the eight CPU Byte Enable signals to
determine if data words read from the PCI bus by the CPU can be merged.

IO CHANNEL CHECK NMI:

This field enable or disable IO channel check NMI. Before selecting this
function, the user should check first that NMI function is enabled as

RESOURCES CONTROLLED BY:

The Award Plug & Play BIOS has the capacity to automatically configure
all the boot and Plug & Play compatible devices. However, this capability
means absolutely nothing unle ss you are using a Plug & Play operating
system such as Win 95. The available choices are Auto and Manual.

RESET CONFIGURATION DATA:

Normally, set this field to Disable. Select Enabled to reset Extended System
Configuration Data (ESCD) when you exit Setup if you have installed a new
add-on and the system reconfiguration has caused such a serious conflict
that the operating system cannot boot.

PCI IDE 2ND CHANNEL:

Select Disabled to deactivate the onboard PCI IDE second channel interface,
if you install a secondary add-in IDE interface.

PCI IRQ ACTIVATED BY:

This sets the method by which the PCI bus recognizes that an IRQ service is
being requested by a device. Under all circumstances, you should retain the
default configuration unless advised otherwise by your system’s
manufacturer.

PCI IDE IRQ MAP TO:

This allows you to configure your system to the type of IDE disk controller
in use. By default, Setup assumes that your controller is an ISA (Industry
Standard Architecture) device rather than a PCI controller. The more
apparent difference is the type of slot being used.

If you have equipp ed your system with a PCI controller, changing this
allows you to specify which slot has the controller and which PCI interrupt
(A, B, C or D) is associated with the connected hard drives.

Remember that this setting refers to the hard disk drive itself, rather than
individual partitions. Since each IDE controller supports two separate hard
drives, you can select INT# for each. Again, you will note that the primary
has a lower interrupt than the secondary as described in “Slot x Using INT#”
above.

Selecting “PCI Auto” allows the system to automatically determine how
your IDE disk system is configured.
