2.5 Setting Jumpers

You may configure your card to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electric 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” 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 2 and 3.

open closed closed 2-3

The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows:.

open closed closed 2-3

A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers.

If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your application, contact your local distributor or sales representative before you make any changes.

Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most connections.


2.6 Clear CMOS (JP1)

Warning!

To avoid damaging the computer, always turn off the power supply before setting “Clear

CMOS.” Before turning on the power supply, set the jumper back to “3.0 V Battery On.”

This jumper is used to erase CMOS data and reset system BIOS information.

The procedure for clearing CMOS is:

1.

Turn off the system.

2.

Short pin 1 and pin 2.

3.

Turn on the system. The BIOS is now reset to its default setting

2.10 Installing SODIMMs

Notes The modules can only fit into a socket one way.

The gold pins must point down into the

SODIMM socket.

The procedure for installing SODIMMs appears below. Please follow these steps carefully.

1. Make sure that all power supplies to the system are switched off

2. Install the SODIMM card. Install the SODIMM so that its gold pins point down into the SODIMM socket.

3. Slip the SODIMM into the socket at a 45 degree angle and carefully fit the bottom of the card against the connectors.

4. Gently push the SODIMM into a perpendicular position until the clips on the ends of the SODIMM sockets snap into place.

5. Check to ensure that the SODIMM is correctly seated and all connector contacts touch. The SODIMM should not move around in its socket.

2.11 ATX power control connector (CN5)

The PCI-6881 support ATX power. CN5 supplies main power (+5V,

+12V, 5VSB), and it is a 6 x 2 power connector, w/Fixed Lock 4200-WS-

A1.

Important Make sure that the ATX power supply can take at least a 10 mA load on the 5 V standby lead

(5VSB). If not, you may have difficulty powering on your system.

2.12 Printer port connector (CN3)

Normally, the parallel port is used to connect the card to a printer. The

PCI-6881 includes a multi-mode (ECP/EPP/SPP) parallel port accessed via CN3 and a 26-pin flat-cable connector. You will need an adapter cable


if you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The adapter cable has a 26-pin connector on one end, and a DB-25 connector on the other.

The parallel port is designated as LPT1, and can be disabled or changed to

LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.

The parallel port interrupt channel is designated to be IRQ7.

You can select ECP/EPP DMA channel via BIOS setup.

2.13 CompactFlash Card Connector

The PCI-6881 provides a 50-pin socket for CompactFlash card type I/II.

2.13.1 CompactFlash(CN20)

The CompactFlash card occupies a secondary IDE channel which can be enabled/disabled via the BIOS settings.

2.14 Floppy drive connector (CN2)

You can attach up to two floppy drives to the PCI-6881’s on-board controller. You can use any combination of 5.25” (360 KB and 1.2 MB) and/ or 3.5” (720 KB, 1.44 MB, and 2.88 MB) drives.

A 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable is required for a dual-drive system. On one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the other end are two sets of floppy disk drive connectors. Each set consists of a 34-pin flat-cable connector (usually used for 3.5” drives) and a printed-circuit board connector (usually used for 5.25” drives).

2.14.1 Connecting the floppy drive

1.

Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN2. Make sure that the red wire corresponds to pin one on the connector.

2.

Attach the appropriate connector on the other end of the cable to the floppy drive(s). You can use only one connector in the set. The set on the end (after the twist in the cable) connects to the A: drive.

The set in the middle connects to the B: drive.

3.

If you are connecting a 5.25” floppy drive, line up the slot in the printed circuit board with the blocked-off part of the cable connector.

If you are connecting a 3.5” floppy drive, you may have trouble determining which pin is number one. Look for a number printed on the circuit board indicating pin number one. In addition, the connector on the floppy drive may have a slot. When the slot is up, pin number one should be on


the right. Check the documentation that came with the drive for more information.

If you desire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the middle of the cable as described above.

In case you need to make your own cable, you can find the pin assignments for the board’s connector in Appendix C.

2.15 Primary IDE connector(CN1,CN4)

The PCI-6881 provides two IDE channels to which you can attach up to four Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics hard disk drives or

CDROM to the PCI-6881’s internal controller. The PCI-6881's IDE controller uses a PCI interface. This advanced IDE controller supports faster data transfer, PIO Mode 3 or Mode 4, UDMA 33/66/100 mode.

2.15.1 Connecting the hard drive

Connecting drives is done in a daisy-chain fashion. It requires one of two cables (not included in this package), depending on the drive size. 1.8" and 2.5" drives need a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 44-pin flat-cable connector. 3.5" drives use a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 40-pin connector.

Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray.

1.

Connect one end of the cable to CN1,CN4. Make sure that the red

(or blue) wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connector, which is labeled on the board (on the right side).

2.

Plug the other end of the cable into the Enhanced IDE hard drive, with pin 1 on the cable corresponding to pin 1 on the hard drive.

(See your hard drive’s documentation for the location of the connector.)

If desired, connect a second drive as described above.

Unlike floppy drives, IDE hard drives can connect to either end of the cable. If you install two drives, you will need to set one as the master and one as the slave by using jumpers on the drives. If you install only one drive, set it as the master.

2.16 VGA/LVDS interface connections

The PCI-6881’s display interface can drive conventional CRT displays and is capable of driving a wide range of LVDS flat panel displays as

Software Configuration

This chapter details the software configuration information. It shows you how to configure the card to match your application requirements. Award

System BIOS will be covered in

Chapter 4.

Sections include:

• Introduction

• VGA display software configuration

Chapter 3 Software Configuration


The system BIOS and custom drivers are located in a

512 KB, 32-pin (JEDEC spec.) Flash ROM device, designated U15. A single Flash chip holds the system BIOS, VGA BIOS, and network Boot

ROM image. The display can be configured via software. This method minimizes the number of chips and eases configuration. You can change the display BIOS simply by reprogramming the Flash chip.

3.2 VGA display firmware configuration

The board’s on-board VGA interface supports a wide range of popular

LCD, EL, gas plasma flat panel displays and traditional analog CRT monitors. The 855GME chip with optimized Shared Memory Architecture, supports up to 64 MB frame buffer using system memory to provide

LVDS mode up to 1280 x 1024 @ 48bpp, the interface can drive CRT displays with resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 @ 24bpp.

The VGA interface is configured completely via the software utility, so you do not have to set any jumpers. Configure the VGA display as follows:

1.

Apply power to the board with a color TFT display attached. This is the default setting for this board. Ensure that the AWD-

FLASH.EXE and *.BIN files are located in the working drive.

NOTE: Ensure that you do not run AWDFLASH.EXE while your system is operating in EMM386 mode.


2.

At the prompt, type AWDFLASH.EXE and press <Enter>. The

VGA configuration program will then display the following:

Figure 3.1: VGA setup screen

3.

At the prompt, enter the new BIN file which supports your display.

When you are sure that you have entered the file name correctly press <Enter>.

4.

The screen will ask ìDo you want to save BIOS?î. If you change your mind or have made a mistake, press N to abort and end the setup procedure. Press Y if you wish to save the existing configuration before changing it. Then type the name under which you want to save the current configuration.

5.

The prompt will then ask ìAre you sure to program?î. Press Y if you want the new file to be written into the BIOS. Press N to exit the program.

The new VGA configuration will then write to the ROM BIOS chip. This configuration will remain the same until you run the AWDFLASH.EXE program and change the settings.
