Packing List

Before installing your panel PC, ensure that the following materials have been received:

• PPC-103 series panel PC

• User's manual

• Accessories for PPC-103

- Power cable for both FDD and HDD/CD-ROM

- FDD flat cable (35 cm)

- Keyboard extension cable (5-pin DIN female to 6-pin PS/2 male)

- FDD power cable

- HDD flat cable (44-pin) (5 cm)

- IDE flat cable (40-pin) (46 cm)

- Audio line-in cable

- Power cord (1.8 m) - USA type

- Mounting kits and packet of screws

- Heat sink

- HDD bracket

- Driver/Utility CD-ROM disk

- Screws

- Silicon heat sink paste

- CPU push cover

- Warranty card

- CPU top plate for FPCGA type CPU

If any of these items are missing or damaged, contact your distributor or sales representative immediately.

Note:

1. Customers may buy the CPU separately. Do not buy a CPU that already has a fan attached with adhesive, because it is not easy to remove such fan.

If you install or upgrade a CPU yourself, you must install the heat sink assembly from Advantech above the CPU in order to avoid heat damage to the CPU. The CPU and the heat sink are normally sold

together with the fan attached to the CPU. Due to tight constraints within the PPC-103’s housing, care must be taken to use the heat sink in the accessory box which will both cool the CPU and fit within the

PPC-103. Thus you must buy a CPU without a fan attached.

1.7.3 Wall-mounting (optional)

An optional wall-mounting attachment is also available for mounting the

PPC at approximately 45° to a flat surface. Installation instructions follow:

1. The wall-mounting attachment is comprised of three parts: one back bracket, one support bracket, and one mounting bracket.

2. First attach the back bracket to the rear cover of the PPC-103, securing it in place with four of the philips-head screws provided.

3. Using a flat-head screwdriver, attach the support bracket to the back bracket using four of the flat-head screws provided, two on either side of the support bracket. The sides of the support bracket should overlap the sides of the back bracket, and the screws should secure one bracket to the other through the existing holes drilled into each bracket.

4. Mount the mounting bracket on the wall or other flat surface. The support bracket slides vertically from the top into the mounting bracket. It can then can be secured to the mounting bracket by screwing one of the philips-head screws provided through the corresponding holes at the tops of the mounting bracket and the support bracket.

General

The PPC-103 consists of a PC-based industrial computer that is housed in a protective cover. Your HDD, SDRAM, power supply and CPU are all readily accessible by removing the rear panel. Any maintenance or hardware upgrades can be carried out easily after removing the rear panel.

Warning! Do not remove the rear cover until you have

verified that no power is flowing within the

PPC-103. Power must be switched off, and the power cord must be disconnected. Every time you service the PPC-103, you should be aware of this.


2.2

Removing Rear Panel

Unscrew the eleven screws that secure the rear cover, then remove the cover.

Jumpers and Connectors

3.1.1 Setting jumpers

You can configure your panel PC to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electrical switch. 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” a jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” a jumper you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2, and 3. In this case, you would connect either pins 1 and 2 or pins 2 and 3.

4.1 Award BIOS Setup

The PPC-103 comes with an Award BIOS chip that contains the ROM setup for your system. This chip serves as an interface between the processor and the rest of the mainboard's components. This chapter explains the information contained in the setup program and tells you how to modify the settings according to your system configuration.

Some setup items will not be explained, because it is recommended that users do not change such items.

Note: Values for the various setup items that appear on your own screen (including default values) may not be the same as the values shown on the screen figures in this chapter. This is because the BIOS is revised and updated from time to time. If in doubt, check Advantech's website for the latest BIOS versions and related information.

4.2 CMOS Setup Utility

Figure 4-1: Setup program initial screen

A setup program, built into the system BIOS, is stored in the CMOS

RAM that allows the configuration settings to be changed. This


program is executed when the user changes the system configuration; when the user changes the system backup battery; or when the system detects a configuration error and asks the user to run the setup program. At power-on RAM testing, the message "Press DEL to enter

Setup" appears. After pressing the "DEL" key, the CMOS setup utility screen will appear as shown in Fig. 4-1. Use the arrow keys to select and press "Enter" to run the selected program.

4.3 Standard CMOS Setup

Figure 4-2: CMOS setup screen

The standard CMOS setup screen is shown above. System BIOS automatically detects memory size, so no changes are necessary. It has a few items requiring setting. Each item may have one or more optional settings. System BIOS allows you to change the system date and time, IDE hard disk, floppy disk drive types for drives A: and B:, boot-up video display mode, and POST error handling selection. Use the arrow keys to highlight the item and then use the "PgUp" or

"PgDn" keys to select the value you want for each item.

IDE HDD Block Mode

This allows your hard disk controller to use the fast block mode to transfer data to and from your hard disk drive (HDD).


IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave PIO

IDE hard disk drive controllers can support up to separate hard drives.

These drives have a master/slave relationship which is determined by the cabling configuration used to attach them to the controller. Your system supports two IDE controllers - a primary and a secondary - so you have the ability to install up to four separate hard disks.


PIO means Programmed Input/Output. Rather than having the BIOS issue a series of commands to effect a transfer to or from the disk drive, PIO allows the BIOS to tell the controller what it wants and then let the controller and the CPU perform the task by themselves.

Your system supports five modes, numbered from 0 through 4, which differ primarily in timing. When "Auto" is selected, the BIOS will choose the best available mode.

The options are: Auto, (Default), Disabled.

Primary/Secondary Master/Slave Ultra DMA

DMA means Direct Memory Access. Ultra DMA is faster than DMA.

DMA is a method of transferring data to or from memory at a fast rate, without involving the CPU.

When you select "Auto", the BIOS will choose the best available mode.

The options are: Auto (Default), Disabled.

Onboard FDD Controller

When enabled, the floppy disk drive (FDD) controller is activated.


Onboard Serial Ports 1 & 2

If the serial ports use the onboard I/O controller, you can modify your serial port parameters.

The options for Port 1 are: 3F8/IRQ4 (Default), 2E8/IRQ3, Disabled,

2F8/IRQ3, 3E8/IRQ4.

The options for Port 2 are: 2F8/IRQ3 (Default), 3E8/IRQ4, 2E8/IRQ3,

Disabled, 3F8/IRQ4.

Onboard Serial Ports 3 & 4

If the serial ports use the onboard I/O controller, you can modify your serial port parameters.

The options for Port 3 are: 3E8/IRQ10 (Default), 2E8/IRQ5, Disabled.


The options for Port 4 are: 2E8/IRQ5 (Default), Disabled, 3E8/IRQ10.

Onboard Parallel Port

If the parallel port uses the onboard I/O controller, you can modify your parallel port paramaters. When you select "Disabled", the next two setup items will disappear.

The options are: 378/IRQ7 (Default), 3BC/IRQ7, 278/IRQ5, Disabled.

Parallel Port Mode

You can choose different data transfer modes for your system.

The options are: ECP & EPP (Default), SPP, EPP, ECP.

ECP Mode Use DMA

You can choose different DMA modes for data transfer.

Programming the

Watchdog Timer

The PPC-103 is equipped with a watchdog timer that resets the CPU or generates an interrupt if processing comes to a standstill for whatever reason. This feature ensures system reliability in industrial stand-alone or unmanned environments.

A.1

Programming the Watchdog Timer

In order to program the watchdog timer, you must write a program which writes I/O port address 443 (hex). The output data is a value of time interval. The value range is from 01 (hex) to 3F (hex), and the related time interval is 1 sec. to 62 sec.

After data entry, your program must refresh the watchdog timer by rewriting the I/O port 443 (hex) while simultaneously setting it. When you want to disable the watchdog timer, your program should read I/O port 443 (hex).

The following example shows how you might program the watchdog timer in BASIC:
