2-3. HOW TO SET THE JUMPERS
You can configure your board by setting the jumpers. Jumper is consists of two or three metal pins with a plastic base mounted on the card, and by using a small plastic "cap", Also known as the jumper cap (with a metal contact inside), you are able to connect the pins. So you can set-up your hardware configuratio n by "opening" or "closing" pins.
The jumper can be combined into sets that 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 below shows how this looks like.
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. You can either connect PIN2 & PIN3 to create another setting. The same jumper diagrams are applied a ll through this manual. The figure below shows what the manual diagram looks like and what they represent.

Chapter 5 Award BIOS Setup
5-1. INTRODUCTION
This chapter will show you the function of the BIOS in managing the features of your system. The Prox-1660 Socket 370 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 the 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 op erating system.
The following diagram illustrates the interlocking relationships between the system hardware, BIOS, operating system, and application program:

BASE MEMORY :
The POST will determine the amount of base (or conventional) memory installed in the system. The value of the base memory is typically 512K for systems with 512K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640K for systems with 640K or more memory installed on the motherboard.
EXTENDED MEMORY :
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during the POST. This is the amount of memory located above 1MB in the CPU’s memor y address map.
OTHER MEMORY :
This refers to the memory located in the 640K to 1024K address space. This is memory that can be used for different applications. DOS uses this area to load device drivers in an effort to keep as much base memory free for application programs. The BIOS is the most frequent user of this RAM area since this is where it shadows RAM.

Appendix C Trouble Shooting
TROUBLE SHOOTING FOR ERROR MESSAGES
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.
POST BEEP :
Currently there are two kind of beep codes in BIOS. The one code indicates that a video error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video screen to display any additional information. This beep code consists of a single long beep followed by three short beeps. The other one code indicates that your DRAM error has occurred. This beep code consists of a single long beep repeatedly.
CMOS BATTERY FAILURE :
When CMOS battery is no longer functional. The user should replace it.
CMOS CHECKSUM ERROR :
This error inform you that the CMOS is corrupted. When the battery runs weak, this situation might happen. Please check the battery and change a new one if necessary.
DISPLAY SWITCH IS SET INCORRECTLY :
Display switch on the motherboard can be set to either monochrome or color. This indicates the switch is set to a different setting than indicated in Setup. Determine which setting is correct, and then either turn off the system and change the jumper, or enter Setup and change the VIDEO selection.
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER :
No boot device was found. This could mean that either a boot drive was not detected or the drive does not contain proper system boot files. Insert a system disk into Drive A: and press < E nte r >. If you assumed the system would boot from the hard drive, make sure the controller is inserted correctly and all cables are properly attached. Also make sure the disk is formatted as a boot device. Then reboot the system.

Appendix C Trouble Shooting
DISKETTE DRIVES OR TY PES M ISM ATCH ERROR - RUN SET UP :
Type of diskette drive installed in the system is different from the CMOS definition. Run Setup to reconfigure the drive type correctly.
ERROR ENCOUNTERED INITIALIZING HARD DRIVE :
Hard drive cannot be initialized. Be sure the adapter is installed correctly and all cables are correctly and firmly attached. Make sure to select the right hard drive type in Setup.
ERROR INITIALIZING HARD DISK CONTROLLER :
Cannot initialize controller. Make sure the cord is correctly and firmly installed in the bus. Make sure to select the right hard drive type in Setup. Also check whether all of the jumpers are set correctly in the hard drive.
FLOPPY DISK CONTROLLER ERROR OR NO CONTROLLER PRESENT :
Cannot find or initialize the floppy drive controller. Make sure the controller is installed properly and firmly. If there are no floppy drives installed, make sure the Diskette Drive selection in Setup is set to NONE.
KEYBOARD ERROR OR NO KEYBOARD PRESENT
:
When this situation happens, please check keyboard attachment and no keys being pressed during the boot. If you are purposely configuring the system without a keyboard, set the error halt condition in Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT KEYBOARD. This will cause the BIOS to ignore the missing keyboard and continue the boot.
MEMORY ADDRESS ERROR AT ... :
Indicates a memory address error at a specific location. You can use this location along with the memory map for your system to find and replace the bad memory chips.
MEMORY PARITY ERROR AT ... :
Indicates a memory parity error at a specific location. You can use this location along with the memory map for your system to find and replace the bad memory chips.
Prox-1660 USER′S MANUAL

Appendix C Trouble Shooting
MEMORY SIZE HAS CHANGED SINCE LAST BOOT :
Memory has been added or removed since the last boot. In EISA mode use Configuration Utility to reconfigure the memory configuration. In ISA mode enter Setup and enter the new memory size in the memory fields.
MEMORY VERIFYING ERROR AT ... :
It indicates an error verifying a value already written to memory. Use the location along with your system's memory map to locate the bad chip.
OFFENDING ADDRESS NOT FOUND :
This message is used in conjunction with the I/O CHANNEL CHECK and RAM PARITY ERROR messages when the segment that has caused the problem cannot be isolated.
OFFENDING SEGMENT :
This message is used in conjunction witht he I/O CHANNEL CHECK and RAM PARITY ERROR messages when the segment that has caused the problem has been isolated.
PRESS A KEY TO REBOOT :
This will be displayed at the bottom screen when an error occurs that requires you to reboot. Press any key and the system will reboot.
PRESS F1 TO DISABLE NMI, F2 TO REBOOT :
When BIOS detects a Non-maskable Interrupt condition during boot, this will allow you to disable the NMI and continue to boot, or you can reboot the system with the NMI enabled.
RAM PARITY ERROR - CHECKING FOR SEGMENT ... :
Indicates a parity error in Random Access Memory.
SYSTEM HALTED :
Indicates the present boot attempt has been aborted and the system must be rebooted. Press and hold down the CTRL and ALT keys and press DEL.
