Intel ® 's highly acclaimed Pentium ® III / Celeron ® processor, together with the Intel ® 815E chipset. The card works with standard ISA- or
PCI/ISA-bus passive backplanes.
The CPU provides 256/128 KB on-CPU L2 cache, eliminating the need for external SRAM chips. It has two PCI EIDE interfaces (for up to four devices) and a floppy disk drive interface (for up to two devices). Other features include two RS-232 serial ports (16C550
UARTs with 16-byte FIFO or compatible), one enhanced parallel port
(supports SPP/EPP/ECP) and four USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports.
The PCI enhanced IDE controller supports Ultra ATA/100/66/33 and
PIO Mode 4 operation. This provides data transfer rates of 100/66/
33 MB/sec. System BIOS supports boot-up from an IDE HDD/CD-
ROM, SCSI HDD/CD-ROM, LS-120, ZIP-100, FDD, and LAN.
A backup of CMOS data is stored in the Flash memory, which protects data even after a battery failure. Also included is a 255-level watchdog timer, which resets the CPU or generates an interrupt if a program cannot be executed normally. This enables reliable operation in unattended environments.
The PCA-6180 Series offers several impressive industrial features such as a chipset integrated VGA (AGP) controller, a PCI Ultra 160
SCSI controller, dual 10/100Base-T networking controllers, three
DIMM slots for a total of 512 MB SDRAM memory, and an ISA
High Drive. All these make it an ideal choice for applications that require both high performance and full functionality.
Note: Some of the features mentioned above are not available with all models. For more information about the specifications of a particular model, see
Section 1.3: Specifications.

Features
1. Fan status monitoring and alarm: To prevent system overheating and damage, the CPU fan can be monitored for speed and failure.
The fan is set for its normal RPM range and alarm thresholds.
2. Temperature monitoring and alert: To prevent system overheating and damage, the CPU card supports processor thermal sensing and auto-protection.
3. Voltage monitoring and alert: System voltage levels are monitored to ensure stable current flows to critical components. Voltage specifications will become even more critical for processors of the future. Thus monitoring will become ever more necessary to ensure proper system configuration and management.
4. ATX soft power switch: Through the BIOS, the power button can be defined as the "Standby" (aka "Suspend" or "Sleep") button or as the "Soft-Off" button (see Section 3.6.6 Soft-off by PWR-BTN).
Regardless of the setting, pushing the power button for more than
4 seconds will enter the Soft-Off mode.
5. Power-on by modem (requires modem): This allows a computer to be turned on remotely through an internal or external modem.
Users can thus access information on their computers from anywhere in the world.
6. Remote wake-up: This feature (aka "Wake-on-LAN") allows you to remotely power up your system through your network by sending a wake-up frame or signal. With this feature, you can remotely upload/download data to/from systems during off-peak hours.
7. Message LED: Chassis LEDs now act as information providers.
The way a particular LED illuminates indicates the stage the computer is in. A single glimpse provides useful information to the user.
8. Jumperless mode: When enabled, this allows changes of
Chapter 1 Hardware Configuration 3
processor settings and Vcore voltages all through the BIOS setup.
9. CMOS RAM backup: When BIOS CMOS setup has been completed, data in the CMOS RAM is automatically backed up to the Flash ROM. This is particularly useful in industrial environments which may cause soft errors. Upon such an error, BIOS will check the data and automatically restore the original data for rebooting.
10.More:
• Additional metal bracket for CPU stabilization
• Power on by alarm: Powers up your computer at a certain time
• Virus warning: During and after system boot-up, any attempt to write to the boot sector or partition table of the hard disk drive will halt the system. In this case, a warning message will be displayed. You can then run your anti-virus program to locate the problem.

Safety Precautions
Warning!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis whenever you work with the hardware. Do not make connections while the power is on. Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by sudden power surges. Only experienced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis.
Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the CPU card. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. As a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface or in a staticshielded bag when they are not in the chassis.

Jumper Settings
This section provides instructions on how to configure your card by setting the jumpers. It also includes the card's default settings and your options for each jumper.
1.8.1 How to set the jumpers
You configure your card to match the needs of your application by setting the jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge that closes an electrical circuit. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them.
To “close” (or turn ON) a jumper, you connect the pins with the clip.
To “open” (or turn OFF) a jumper, you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper consists of a set of three pins, labeled 1, 2, and 3. In this case you connect either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3.
A pair of needle-nose pliers may be useful when setting jumpers.
1.8.2 CMOS clear (J1)
The PCA-6180 CPU card contains a jumper that can erase CMOS data and reset the system BIOS information. Normally this jumper should be set with pins 1-2 closed. If you want to reset the CMOS data, set J1 to
2-3 closed for just a few seconds, and then move the jumper back to 1-
2 closed. This procedure will reset the CMOS to its default setting.

1.8.3 Watchdog timer output (J2)
The PCA-6180 contains a watchdog timer that will reset the CPU or send a signal to IRQ11 in the event the CPU stops processing. This feature means the PCA-6180 will recover from a software failure or an
EMI problem. The J2 jumper settings control the outcome of what the computer will do in the event the watchdog timer is tripped.

1.9
System Memory
The top-left edge of the PCA-6180 contains three sockets for 168-pin dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs). All three sockets use 3.3 V unbuffered synchronous DRAMs (SDRAM). DIMMs are available in capacities of 16, 32, 64, 128, or 256 MB. The sockets can be filled in any combination with DIMMs of any size, giving your PCA-6180 single board computer between 16 MB and 512 MB of memory. Use the following table to calculate the total DRAM memory within your computer:
Table 1-5: DIMM module allocation table

16 PCA-6180 User's Manual
1.9.2 Supplementary information about DIMMs
Your PCA-6180 can accept SDRAM memory chips (with or without parity). Also note:
• If the PCA-6180 operates at 133 MHz, only use PC/133-compliant
DIMMs. Most systems will not even boot if non-compliant modules are used. This is due to strict timing issues involved at this speed.
• Chips with 9 chips/side support ECC; chips with 8 chips/side do not support ECC. PCA-6180 does not support ECC.
• Single-sided modules are typically 16, 32, or 64 MB; double-sided modules are usually 32, 64, 128, or 256 MB.
Chapter 1 Hardware Configuration 17
1.10 Memory Installation Procedures
To install DIMMs, first make sure the two handles of the DIMM socket are in the "open" position (i.e., the handles lean outward).
Slowly slide the DIMM module along the plastic guides on both ends of the socket. Then press the DIMM module right down into the socket, until you hear a click. This is when the two handles have automatically locked the memory module into the correct position of the DIMM socket. To remove the memory module, just push both handles outward, and the memory module will be ejected by the mechanism in the socket.
1.11 Cache Memory
Since the second-level (L2) cache has been embedded into the Intel ®
FC-PGA Pentium ® III processor, you do not have to take care of either
SRAM chips or SRAM modules. The built-in second-level cache in the processor yields much higher performance than the external cache memories. The cache size in the Intel ® FC-PGA Pentium ® III processor is 256 KB. In the Celeron CPU, the cache size is 128KB.
18 PCA-6180 User's Manual
1.12 CPU Installation
The PCA-6180 provides a socket 370 for an Intel ® FC-PGA Pentium processor. The CPU on the board must have a fan or heat sink
® III attached to prevent overheating.
Warning: Without a fan or heat sink, the CPU will overheat and cause damage to both the CPU and the motherboard.
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover.
Locate the processor socket 370.
1. Make sure the socket 370 lever is in the upright position. To raise the lever, pull it out to the side a little and raise it as far as it will go.
2. Place the CPU in the empty socket. Follow the instructions that came with the CPU. If you have no instructions, complete the following procedure. Carefully align the CPU so it is parallel to the socket and the notches on the corners of the CPU correspond with the notches on the inside of the socket. Gently slide the CPU in. It should insert easily. If it does not insert easily, pull the lever up a little bit more.
3. Press the lever down. The plate will slide forward. You will feel some resistance as the pressure starts to secure the CPU in the socket. This is normal and will not damage the CPU.
When the CPU is installed, the lever should snap into place at the side of the socket.
Note: To remove a CPU, pull the lever out to the side a little and raise it as far as it will go. Lift out the CPU.

Connecting Peripherals
This chapter tells how to connect peripherals, switches, and indicators to the PCA-6180 board.
2.1
Introduction
You can access most of the connectors from the top of the board while it is installed in the chassis. If you have a number of cards installed or have a packed chasis, you may need to partially remove the card to make all the connections.
Note: If your chassis has only one empty expansion slot to accommodate the CPU card, you can replace the standard dual-slot bracket with the single-slot bracket included in your PCA-6180 package, in which case you will have to access the connectors
(CN31~34) on the extension I/O board from inside the chassis.
2.2
Primary (CN1) and Secondary (CN2) IDE
Connectors
You can attach up to four IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) drives to the PCA-6180’s built-in controller. The primary (CN1) and secondary (CN2) connectors can each accommodate two drives.
Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue and the other wires are gray. Connect one end to connector CN1 or CN2 on the CPU card.
Make sure that the red/blue wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connector (in the upper right hand corner). See Chapter 1 for help finding the connector.
Unlike floppy drives, IDE hard drives can connect in either position on the cable. If you install two drives to a single connector, you will need to set one as the master and the other as the slave. You do this by setting the jumpers on the drives. If you use just one drive per connector, you should set each drive as the master. See the documentation that came with your drive for more information.
22 PCA-6180 User's Manual
Connect the first hard drive to the other end of the cable. Wire 1 on the cable should also connect to pin 1 on the hard drive connector, which is labeled on the drive circuit board. Check the documentation that came with the drive for more information.
Connect the second hard drive to the remaining connector (CN2 or
CN1), in the same way as described above.
Note: The PCA-6180 supports the Ultra ATA/100 interface and requires special IDE cables as well as a software driver to enable this function. See Chapter 7 for more information.
2.3
Floppy Drive Connector (CN3)
You can attach up to two floppy disk drives to the PCA-6180's onboard controller. You can use 3.5" (720 KB, 1.44/2.88 MB) drives.
The card comes with a 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable. On one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the other end are two sets of 34-pin flat-cable connector (usually used for 3.5" drives). The set on the end (after the twist in the cable) connects to the
A: floppy drive. The set in the middle connects to the B: floppy drive.
2.4
Parallel Port (CN4)
Chapter 2 Connecting Peripherals 2 3
The parallel port is normally used to connect the CPU card to a printer.
The PCA-6180 includes an onboard parallel port, accessed through a
26-pin flat-cable connector, CN4. The card comes with an adapter cable which lets you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The cable has a 26pin connector on one end and a DB-25 connector on the other, mounted on a retaining bracket. The bracket installs at the end of an empty slot in your chassis, giving you access to the connector.
To install the bracket, find an empty slot in your chassis. Unscrew the plate that covers the end of the slot. Screw in the bracket in place of the plate. Next, attach the flat-cable connector to CN4 on the CPU card.
Wire 1 of the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray. Make sure that wire 1 corresponds to pin 1 of CN4. Pin 1 is on the upper right side of CN4.
2.5
SCSI Connector (CN5)
The PCA-6180 has a 68-pin, dual in-line connector for Ultra 160 SCSI devices. Connection of SCSI devices requires special attention, especially when determining the last drive on the SCSI chain. Refer to

Introduction
This driver takes advantage of the latest Intel ® Ultra ATA controller features to improve both storage subsystem performance and overall system performance. A useful diagnostic tool, Intel Ultra ATA
Companion ® , shows technical information of the ATA subsystem.
7.2
Features
• The driver enables fast Ultra ATA transfers by default.
• Users no longer have to manually enable DMA transfers for each
ATA and/or ATAPI peripheral devices.
• Each ATA channel has independent device timings/transfers which allows PIO-only and DMA-capable devices to share the same
ATA controller cable, where one is the master and the other the slave, without restricting transfer mode to PIO-only for both devices.
• Technical details of the ATA subsystem can be viewed via use of the application.
• Drivers are optimized.

SCSI Setup and
Configurations
The PCA-6180 features an onboard SCSI interface. This chapter provides basic
SCSI concepts.
9.1
Introduction
The PCA-6180 is equipped with an Adaptec AIC-7892 single-chip
PCI-to-SCSI host adapter which provides a powerful Ultra160 multitasking interface between your computer’ s PCI bus and SCSI devices (disk drives, CD-ROM drives, scanners, tape backups, removable media drives, etc.). Ultra160 is a new generation of SCSI technology that expands SCSI performance from 80 MBytes/sec to
160 MBytes/sec. Up to a total of 15 SCSI devices can be connected to the SCSI connector through the AIC-7892.
The AIC-7892 combines this Ultra160 SCSI technol-ogy with
Adaptec’s SpeedFlex™ technology. SpeedFlex allows the Adaptec
SCSI Card 29160 to be backwards compatible with previous generations of SCSI products, while allowing newer Ultra160 SCSI devices to operate at the higher 160 MBytes/sec rate.
If you need to configure the SCSI, the onboard SCSI Select configuration utility allows you to change host adapter settings without opening the computer or handling the board. The SCSI Select utility also contains a utility to low-level format and verifies the disk media on your hard disk drives.
Note: If any peripheral is attached to the Ultra2 SCSI segment and is running at SE mode, one or more
Ultra/Ultra Wide peripherals will be attached to the
Ultra2 SCSI segment and will cause the Ultra2
SCSI segment to run at speeds up to 40 MBytes/ sec instead of 80 MBytes/sec.
9.2
Understanding SCSI
SCSI (pronounced “scuzzy”) stands for Small Computer Systems
Interface. SCSI is an industry standard computer interface for connecting SCSI devices to a common SCSI bus.
A SCSI bus is an electrical pathway that consists of a SCSI interface
(such as the AIC-7892) installed in a computer and one or more SCSI devices. SCSI cables are used to connect the devices to the SCSI interface. For the SCSI bus to function properly, a unique SCSI ID
106 PCA-6180 User’s Manual
must be assigned to the SCSI interface and each SCSI device connected to it, and the SCSI bus must be properly terminated.
9.3
SCSI IDs
Each device attached to the AIC-7892, as well as the AIC-7892 itself, must be assigned a unique SCSI ID number from 0 to 15. A SCSI ID uniquely identifies each SCSI device on the SCSI bus and determines priority when two or more devices are trying to use the SCSI bus at the same time.
Refer to the device’s documentation to set the SCSI ID. Here are some general guidelines for SCSI IDs:
• For internal SCSI devices, the SCSI ID usually is set by configuring a jumper on the device.
• For external SCSI devices, the SCSI ID usually is set with a switch on the back of the device.
• SCSI ID numbers don’t have to be sequential, as long as the AIC-
7892 and each device has a different number.
• For example, you can have an internal SCSI device with ID 0, and an external SCSI device with ID 6.
• SCSI ID 7 has the highest priority on the SCSI bus. The priority of the remaining IDs, in descending order, is 6 to 0, then 15 to 8.
• The on-board SCSI interface is preset to SCSI ID 7 and should not be changed. This gives it the highest priority on the SCSI bus.
• Most internal SCSI hard disk drives come from the factory pre-set to SCSI ID 0.
• If you have 8-bit (or Narrow) SCSI devices, they must use SCSI IDs
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. SCSI ID 0 is recommended for the first SCSI hard disk drive.
• If you are booting your computer from a SCSI hard disk drive connected to the AIC-7892, the Boot SCSI ID setting in the
Chapter 9 SCSI Setup and Configurations 107
SCSISelect utility must correspond to the SCSI ID of the device from which you are booting. By default, the Boot SCSI ID is set to
0. We recommend that you do not change this setting.
• In Windows ® 95/98, you can use the Device Manager to determine which SCSI ID is assigned to each installed SCSI device.
9.4
Terminating the SCSI Bus
To ensure reliable communication on the SCSI bus, the ends of the
SCSI bus must be properly terminated. This is accomplished when the device at the end of each cable, or the end of the cable itself, has a terminator installed (or enabled). Terminators must be removed, or termination must be disabled, on devices between the ends of each cable.
Since the method for terminating a SCSI device can vary widely, refer to the device’s documentation for instructions on how to enable or disable termination. Here are some general guidelines for termination:
• Internal Ultra160 and Ultra2 SCSI devices come from the factory with termination disabled and cannot be changed. Proper termination for internal Ultra160 and Ultra2 SCSI devices is provided by a
68-pin Internal LVD (low voltage differential) SCSI cable, which has a built-in terminator at its end.
• Termination on non-Ultra160 and Ultra2 internal SCSI devices usually is controlled by manually setting a jumper or a switch on the device, or by physically removing or installing one or more resistor modules on the device.
• Termination on most external SCSI devices is controlled by installing or removing a SCSI terminator. However, termination on some external SCSI devices is enabled or disabled by setting a switch on the back of the SCSI device.
• The last external Ultra160 or Ultra2 SCSI device must be terminated with an LVD/SE (low voltage differential/single ended) terminator plug to ensure that the device will operate at its maxi-
108 PCA-6180 User’s Manual
mum speed. If you use a different kind of terminator plug, the data
I/O rate will decrease.
• By default, termination on the AIC-7892 itself is set to Automatic
(the preferred method). We recommend that you do not change this default setting.
9.4
Configuring the SCSI Interface with
SCSI Select
SCSISelect, included with the AIC-7892, enables you to change SCSI settings without opening the computer. SCSISelect also enables you to low-level format or verify the disk media of your SCSI hard disk drives. The following table lists the available and default settings for each SCSISelect option.
Note: The default settings are appropriate for most systems. Run SCSISelect if you need to change or view curre nt set-tings, or if you would like to run the SCSI disk utilities. See the descriptions of each option starting on page 113.

SCSI Bus Interface Definitions
• Host Adapter SCSI ID—(Default: 7) Sets the SCSI ID for the
SCSI card. The Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 is set at 7, which gives it the highest priority on the SCSI bus. We recommend that you do not change this setting.
• SCSI Parity Checking—(Default: Enabled) When set to En-
abled, verifies the accuracy of data transfer on the SCSI bus. Leave
Chapter 9 SCSI Setup and Configurations 111
this setting enabled unless any SCSI device connected to the
Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 does not support SCSI parity.
• Host Adapter SCSI Termination—(Default: Automatic) Determines the termination setting for the SCSI card. The default setting for both the LVD/SE (low voltage differential/single ended) connectors and SE connectors is Automatic, which allows the SCSI card to adjust the termination as needed depending on the configuration of the connected SCSI devices. We recommend that you do not change these settings.
Boot Device Options
• Boot SCSI ID—(Default: 0) Specifies the SCSI ID of your boot device. We recommend that you do not change the default setting.
• Boot LUN Number—(Default: 0) Specifies which LUN (Logical
Unit Number) to boot from on your boot device. This setting is not valid unless Multiple LUN Support is Enabled (see Advanced
Configuration Options on page 115).
SCSI Device Configuration
SCSI Device Configuration options can be set individually for each connected SCSI device.
Note: To configure settings for a SCSI device, you must know its SCSI ID (see Using SCSI Disk Utilities on page 23).
• Sync Transfer Rate—(Default: 160) Determines the maximum synchronous data transfer rate that the SCSI card supports. Use the maximum value of 160 MBytes/sec.
• Initiate Wide Negotiation—(Default: Yes) When set to Yes, the
SCSI card attempts 16-bit data transfer (wide negotiation). When set to No, the SCSI card uses 8-bit data transfer unless the SCSI device requests wide negotiation.
112 PCA-6180 User’s Manual
Note: Set Initiate Wide Negotiation to No if you are using an 8-bit SCSI device that hangs or exhibits other performance problems with 16-bit data transfer rate enabled.
• Enable Disconnection—(Default: Yes) When set to Yes, allows the SCSI device to disconnect from the SCSI bus. Leave the setting at Yes if two or more SCSI devices are connected to the SCSI card. If only one SCSI device is connected, changing the setting to
No results in slightly better performance.
• Send Start Unit Command—(Default: Yes) When set to Yes, the
Start Unit Command is sent to the SCSI device at bootup.
The following three options have no effect if the SCSI Card BIOS is disabled. (The SCSI Card BIOS is normally enabled by default.)
• Enable Write Back Cache—(Default: N/C) Can be used to enable or disable the write-back cache on SCSI disk drives con-nected to the host adapter. Leave this option at its default setting of N/C (no change), which usually allows for optimum drive performance.
• BIOS Multiple LUN Support—(Default: No) Leave this set-ting at No if the device does not have multiple Logical Unit Numbers
(LUNs). When set to Yes , the SCSI card BIOS provides boot support for a SCSI device with multiple LUNs (for example, a CD
“juke box” device in which multiple CDs can be accessed simultaneously).
• Include in BIOS Scan—(Default: Yes) When set to Yes, the SCSI card BIOS includes the device as part of its BIOS scan at bootup.
Advanced Configuration Options
Note: Do not change the Advanced Configuration Options unless absolutely necessary.
• Reset SCSI Bus at IC Initialization—(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, the SCSI card generates a SCSI bus reset during its power-on initialization and after a hard reset.
Chapter 9 SCSI Setup and Configurations 113
• Display <Ctrl> <A> Messages during BIOS Initialization—
(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, the SCSI card BIOS displays the Press <Ctrl> <A> for SCSISelect (TM) Utility!
message on your screen during system bootup. If this setting is disabled, you can still invoke the SCSISelect Utility by pressing
<Ctrl> <A> after the SCSI card BIOS banner appears.
• Extended BIOS Translation for DOS Drives > 1 GByte—
(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, provides an extended translation scheme for SCSI hard disks with capacities greater than
1 GByte. This setting is necessary only for MS-DOS 5.0 or above; it is not required for other operating systems, such as NetWare or
UNIX.
Caution: Changing the translation scheme destroys all data on the drive. Be sure to back up your disk drives before changing the translation scheme.
Use the MS-DOS Fdisk command to partition a disk larger than 1
GByte controlled by the SCSI card BIOS, when using DOS, Windows
3.1.x, or Windows 95/98.
• Verbose/Silent Mode—(Default: Verbose) When set to Verbose, the SCSI card BIOS displays the host adapter model on the screen during system buildup. When set to Silent, the message is not displayed during bootup.
• Host Adapter BIOS (Configuration Utility Reserves BIOS
Space)—(Default: Enabled) Enables or disables the SCSI card
BIOS.
• Leave at Enabled to allow the SCSI card BIOS to scan and initialize all SCSI devices.
• Set to Disabled: Not scan if the devices on the SCSI bus (for example, CD-ROM drives) are controlled by software driv-ers and do not need the BIOS, and you do not want the BIOS to scan the SCSI bus.
114 PCA-6180 User’s Manual
• Set to Disabled: Scan Bus if you do not need the BIOS, but you want it to scan the SCSI devices on the bus and you need to spin up the devices.
The following four options have no effect when the SCSI Card BIOS is disabled. (The SCSI Card BIOS is normally enabled by default.)
• Domain Validation—(Default: Enabled) Determines the optimal transfer rate for each device on the SCSI bus and sets transfer rates accordingly. Displays the resulting data transfer rate.
• Support Removable Disks Under BIOS as Fixed Disks—
(Default: Disabled) Determines which removable-media drives are supported by the SCSI card BIOS. Choices are as follows:
• Disabled— No removable-media drives are treated as hard disk drives. Software drivers are required because the drives are not controlled by the BIOS.
• Boot Only—Only the removable-media drive designated as the boot device is treated as a hard disk drive.
• All Disks—All removable-media drives supported by the BIOS are treated as hard disk drives.
Caution: You may lose data if you remove a removablemedia cartridge from a SCSI drive controlled by the
SCSI card BIOS while the drive is on. If you want to be able to remove the media while the drive is on, install the removable-media software driver and set
Support Removable Disks Under BIOS as Fixed
Disks to Disabled .
• BIOS Support for Bootable CD-ROMs—(Default: Enabled)
When set to Enabled, the SCSI card BIOS allows the computer to boot from a CD-ROM drive.
• BIOS Support for Int 13 Extensions—(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, the SCSI card BIOS supports Int 13h extensions as required by Plug-and-Play. The setting can be either enabled or disabled if your system is not Plug-and-Play.
Chapter 9 SCSI Setup and Configurations 115
9.7
Using SCSI Disk Utilities
To access the SCSI disk utilities, follow these steps:
1. Select the SCSI Disk Utilities option from the menu that appears after starting SCSISelect. SCSISelect scans the SCSI bus
(to determine the devices installed) and displays a list of all SCSI
IDs and the devices assigned to each ID.
2. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to a specific ID and device, then press Enter.
3. A small menu appears, displaying the options Format Disk and
Verify Disk Media.
• Format Disk—Allows you to perform a low-level format on a hard disk drive. Most SCSI disk devices are preformatted at the
factory and do not need to be formatted again.
Caution: A low-level format destroys all data on the drive. Be sure to back up your data before performing this operation. You cannot abort a low-level format once it is started.
• Verify Disk Media—Allows you to scan the media of a hard disk drive for defects. If the utility finds bad blocks on the media, it prompts you to reassign them; if you select yes, those blocks are no longer used. Pressing Esc at any time aborts the utility.

Programming the
A
Watchdog Timer
The PCA-6180 is equipped with a watchdog timer that resets the CPU or generates an interrupt if processing comes to a standstill for any reason. This feature ensures system reliability in industrial standalone or unmanned environments.
A.1 Programming the Watchdog Timer
The PCA-6180's watchdog timer can be used to monitor system software operation and take corrective action if the software fails to function after the programmed period. This section describes the operation of the watchdog timer and how to program it.
A.1.1 Watchdog timer overview
The watchdog timer is built-in the super I/O controller W83627HF.
It provides the following functions for user programming:
• Can be enabled and disabled by user's program.
• Timer can be set from 1 to 255 seconds or 1 to 255 minutes.
• Generates an interrupt or resets signal if the software fails to reset the timer after time-out.
A.1.2 Reset/ Interrupt selection
The J2 jumper is used to select reset or interrupt (IRQ 11) in the event the watchdog timer is tripped. See Chapter 1 for detailed jumper settings.
Note: The interrupt output of the watchdog timer is a low level signal. It will be held low until the watchdog timer is reset.
A1.3 Programming the Watchdog Timer
The I/O port address of the watchdog timer is 2E(hex) and 2F(hex).
2E (hex) is the address port. 2F(hex) is the data port.
You must first assign the address of register by writing address value into address port 2E(hex), then write/read data to/from the assigned register through data port 2F (hex).

Solution: System lockup can occur during Restart as a
result of several possible system issues. In
Appendix C DiskOnChip ® 2000 Quick Installation Guide 157
the event of system lockup, restart the machine
and view Device Manager. If devices are listed
properly and the system experiences no further
problems, then the .INF file restore process was
successful. If devices are not configured
correctly, try re-running the procedures outlined
in Section 3.
If this does not fix problems or further
problems are experienced, reinstall the
operating system.
Issue: After performing the silent install, the
HKLM\Software\Intel\Isecdrv key was not created
or the data of the value "install" is not
"success".
Solution: This is caused by one of the following scenarios:
- The current system does not contain
a supported operating system, or
- The current system does not contain
a supported chipset.
Verify the System Requirements in Section 2.
