General Information This chapter gives background informa- tion on the PCM-5890. Sections include: • Card specifications • Card layout and dimensions Chapter 1 General Information 1 CHAPTER Introduction The PCM-5890 is an all-in-one single board Pentium computer with an on-board PCI SVGA controller, a PCI Ethernet interface and a PCI expansion slot. Equipped with 64 bits and local bus architecture, the PCM-5890 releases Pentium's full potential and provides unprecedented performance compared to current 32-bit processor boards. The PCM-5890 offers all the functions of an industrial computer on a single board, but fits in the space of a 5¼" floppy drive (only 5.75" x 8"). For maximum performance, the PCM-5890 also supports 2nd level cache sized from 256 KB to 512 KB. On-board features include four serial ports (three RS-232 and one RS-232/422/485), one multi-mode parallel (ECP/EPP/SPP) port, a floppy drive controller and a keyboard/PS/2 mouse interface. The built-in high speed PCI IDE controller supports both PIO and bus master modes. Up to two IDE devices can be connected, including large hard disks, CD-ROM drives, tape backup drives and other IDE devices. The PCM-5890 also features power management to minimize power consumption. It complies with the “Green Function” standard and supports three types of power saving features: Doze mode, Standby mode and Suspend mode. In addition, the board’s watchdog timer can automatically reset the system or generate an interrupt in case the system stops due to a program bug or EMI. On-board peripherals with true PCI performance The PCM-5890 is a highly integrated, all-in-one single board computer. All on-board peripherals (including PCI flat panel/VGA interface, PCI Ethernet and PCI IDE) adopt PCI technology and operate through an internal PCI bus. Integrating a Pentium board with PCI architecture has unleashed a revolutionary level of performance. The PCM-5890 is the smallest and most powerful all-in-one Pentium board available. 2 PCM-5890 User's Manual Features • Accepts Intel Pentium 75-166 MHz CPUs • Award Flash BIOS, Flat-Panel configured by programming Flash chip • 2nd level cache: supports both asynchronous SRAM and Pipeline burst RAM module, up to 512 KB cache memory • 32-bit PCI-bus SVGA controller, supports LCD, EL and CRT displays • 32-bit PCI-bus Ethernet interface, Novell NE 2000 compatible • One PCI expansion slot • Built-in, bus-master PCI IDE controller supports two IDE devices (large hard disk, CD-ROM, tape backup, etc.) • Supports both normal and EDO type DRAM, from 1 MB to 64 MB of DRAM • One enhanced multi-mode SPP/EPP/ECP parallel port, four serial ports: three RS-232 and one RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 selectable • Watchdog timer, time interval 1.6 seconds • Green function: supports doze/standby/suspend modes • ISA-bus expansion with PC/104 modules • Dimensions: 5.75" x 8" Chapter 1 General Information 3 Specifications Standard SBC functions • CPU: Intel Pentium 75/90/100/120/133 MHz; AMD K5; Cyrix M1 • BIOS: AWARD 128 KB Flash memory • Chipset: VIA 82C575 M • 2nd Level Cache: Direct map write back or write through cache; 256 K/512 K Asynchronous (Standard) SRAM or 256 K/512 K Synchro- nous (Pipeline Burst) SRAM • RAM: Two 72-pin SIMM sockets.

A jumper is the simplest kind of electric 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 2 and 3. 3 2 1 Open Closed Closed 2-3 The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows: 1 2 3 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 represen- tative before you make any changes. Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most connections. 12 PCM-5890 User's Manual CPU installing and upgrading You can upgrade to a higher power Pentium CPU at any time. Simply remove the old CPU, install the new one, and set the jumpers for the new CPU type and speed. Warning! Always disconnect the power cord from your chassis when you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on as sensitive electronic components can be dam- aged by the sudden rush of power. Only experi- enced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis. Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the PC board. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis. 1. If you are upgrading the CPU, remove the old CPU from the socket. If it is difficult to remove, you may find chip lubricant (designed for pin-grid-array devices, PGAs) and a chip puller helpful. Both are available at electronics hobby supply stores. 2. Plug the new CPU into the empty socket. Follow the instruc- tions that came with the CPU or math coprocessor. If you have no instructions, do the following: Lubricate the CPU pins with lubricant made for PGA devices. This will make the new CPU slide in much more easily and reduce the chance of damaging it. Next, carefully align the CPU so it is parallel to the socket and the notch on the corner of the CPU corresponds with the notch on the inside of the socket. Gently slide the CPU in. There will probably be a gap between the CPU and the connec- tor when it is fully seated - Do not push too hard! When you install a new CPU, be sure to adjust the board settings, such as CPU type and CPU clock. Improper settings may damage the CPU. Chapter 2 Installation 13 System clock setting (J10, J11, J12) J10, J11, and J12 are used to sychronize the system clock with the CPU type. When the board is shipped, it is set for a Pentium 75 MHz. You may need to adjust the CPU clock according to the base CPU speed. CPU clock select 50 MHz 60 MHz *66MHz J10 J11 J12 CPU frequency ratio (J1 and J2) CPU frequency ratio System frequency 2.5x 2x 3x *1.5x J1 J2 CPU voltage setting (J3, J4) J3 and J4 must be set to match the CPU type.

Unlike most other CPU cards, the PCM- 5890 supports both single and dual insertion into the memory bank. Depending on the combination of modules you use, you can install from 1 MB to 64 MB of RAM. Installing SIMMs NOTE: The modules can only fit into a socket one way. Their chips must face the CPU, and their gold pins must point down into the SIMM socket. 1. Ensure that all power sources are disconnected. 2. Slip the memory module into the socket at a 45 degree angle. 3. Push the module toward the vertical posts at both ends of the socket until the module is upright, and the retaining clips at both ends of the module click into place. When positioned correctly, the pins on top of the vertical posts should corre- spond to the circular holes on the ends of the module. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each module you install. Chapter 2 Installation 15 Selecting cache module type (J8) The PCM-5890 features a 2nd level memory cache that supports both asynchronous SRAM (standard) and pipelined burst RAM modules cache memory. The best performance can be achieved using the pipelined burst RAM in the Pentium class system. Refer to the table below to configure your cache module types: Syn- chronous SRAM(SYNC) or Asynchronous SRAM(ASYNC). L2 Cache Configuration Cache Module Type *SYNC ASYNC. J8 * default setting Cache module installation The cache module is installed with the chips on the module facing towards the CPU chip. 16 PCM-5890 User's Manual IDE hard drive connector (CN13) You can attach one or two Enhanced Integrated Device Electron- ics hard disk drives to the PCM-5890's internal controller. Connecting the hard drive Connecting drives is done in a daisy-chain fashion and requires one of two cables, 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 CN13. 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 to 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.) Connect a second drive as described above. Unlike floppy drive, 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 dirves. If you install just one drive, set it as the master. Chapter 2 Installation 17 Floppy drive connector (CN14) You can attach up to two floppy disks to the PCM-5890's on- board controller. You can use any combination of 5¼" (360 KB and 1.2 MB) and/or 3½" (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 3½" drives) and a printed-circuit board connec- tor (usually used for 5¼" drives). Connecting the floppy drive 1. Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN14. Make sure that the red wire corresponds to pin one on the connector. 2. Attach the appropriate connector on th eother 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 5¼" 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 3½"floppy drive, you may have trouble determining which pin is pin number one. Look for a number printed on the circuit board indicating pin number one. Also, the connector on the floppy drive connector 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 sesire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the middle of the cable as described above. If you need to make your own cable, you can find the pin assign- ments for the card's connector in Appendix C. 18 PCM-5890 User's Manual Parallel port connector (CN12) Normally, the parallel port is used to connect the card to a printer. The PCM-5890 includes an on-board parallel port, accessed through CN12, a 26- pin flat-cable connector. You will need an adapter cable if you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The cable has a 26-pin connector on one end and a DB-25 connector on the other. Parallel port IRQ The PCM-5890 supports one parallel port. The port is designated as LPT1 and can be disabled or changed to LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup. Parallel port IRQ selection IRQ5 *IRQ7 J17 You can select ECP/EPP DMA channel by setting J13 and J14. ECP/EPP DMA channel *DMA1 DMA3 J13 J14 * default setting Keyboard and PS/2 connector (CN8) The PCM-5890 board provides a keyboard connector which supports both a keyboard and a PS/2 style mouse. In most cases, especially in embedded applications, a keyboard is not used. The standard PC/AT BIOS will report an error or fail during power-on self test (POST) after a reset if the keyboard is not present. The PCM-5890's BIOS standard setup menu allows you to select "All, But Keyboard" under the "Halt On" selection. This allows no- keyboard operation in embedded system applications without the system halting under POST (power-on-self-test). Chapter 2 Installation 19 Front panel connector (CN6) Next you may want to install external switches to monitor and control the PCM-5890. These features are completely optional �install them only if you need them. The front panel connector (CN6) is an 8-pin male, dual in-line header and provides connec- tions for a speaker, hard disk access indicator and an input switch for resetting the card. Speaker The PCM-5890 can drive an 8 W speaker at 0.5 watts. Ensure that alternatives to this specification do not overload the card. LED interface The front panel LED indicator for hard disk access is an active low signal (24 mA sink rate). Reset switch If you install a reset switch, it should be a open single pole switch. Momentarily pressing the switch will activate a reset. The switch should be rated for 10 mA, 5 V. If you need to make your own cable, you can find the pin assign- ments for the card’s connector in Appendix C. Flat panel display connector (CN4) CN4 consists of a 44-pin, dual-in-line header. Power supplies (+12 V, -12 V) present on CN4 depend the supply connected to the board. Ensure that both CN7 and CN15 are connected for ±12 V power supply. The PCM-5890 provides a bias control signal on CN4 which can be used to control the LCD bias voltage. It is recommended that the LCD bias voltage not be applied to the panel until the logic supply voltage (+5 V) and panel video signals are stable. Under normal operation the control signal (ENAVEE) is active high. When the PCM-5890's power is applied, the control signal is low until just after the relevant flat panel signals are present. 20 PCM-5890 User's Manual Power connectors (CN7, CN15, CN5) Peripheral power connector, -5V, -12V (CN7) Supplies secondary power to devices that require -5 V and -12 V. Main power connector, +5V, +12V (CN15) Supplies main power to the PCM-5890 (+5 V) and devices that require +12 V. Fan power supply connector (CN5) Provides power supply to optional CPU cooling fan. Only present when +5 V and +12 V power is supplied to the board. Serial ports (CN11) The PCM-5890 offers four serial ports: three RS-232 and one RS-232/422/485. These ports let you connect to serial devices (a mouse, printers, etc.) or a communication network. Serial port RS-232/422/485 The serial port connectors are mounted on the right hand edge of the card. The 40-pin, dual-in-line, male header to the right of the card is for the RS-232 and RS-232/422/485 ports.

The card has two connectors to support these displays, one for standard CRT VGA monitors and one for flat panel displays. CRT display connector (CN3) CN3 is a 16-pin, dual-in-line header used for conventional CRT displays. A simple one-to-one adapter can be used to match CN3 to a standard 15-pin D-SUB connector commonly used for VGA. Pin assignments for CRT display connector CN3 are detailed in Appendix C. 22 PCM-5890 User's Manual When the PCM-5890's power is applied, the control signal is low until just after the relevant flat panel signals are present. Configuration of the VGA interface is done completely via the software utility. You don't have to set any jumpers. Refer to Chapter 3 for software setup details. Refer to Chapter 3 for details on connecting the four standard LCD's: Sharp LM64183P, Toshiba LTM09C016, Sharp 64C142, and Planar EL Display. Ethernet configuration The PCM-5890 is equipped with a high performance 32-bit PCI- bus Ethernet interface which is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3 10Mbps CSMA/CD standards. It is supported by all major network operating systems and is 100% Novell NE-2000 compat- ible. Configuration is very simple and is done via the Award BIOS setup. See Chapter 4 for IRQ setup. The medium type can be configured via the RSET8029.EXE program included on the utility disk. (See Chapter 3 for detailed information.) Chapter 2 Installation 23 When there is a PCI expansion card installed, the I/O address will be 6500, but when there is no card, the I/O address will be 6400. PCM-5890 Ethernet settings IRQ Options I/O Address w/card 7, 9, 11, 14 6500 w/o card 7, 9, 11, 14 6400 NOTE: You can select an IRQ from the options shown above, but make sure your selection does not conflict with other I/O devices. 10BASE-2/10BASE-5 AUI connector (CN9) On-board 10-Base-T, 10BASE-2 and 10BASE-5 coax connec- tions are made via an attachment unit interface or AUI (CN9). This consists of a 16-pin, dual-in-line male header. 10BASE-T connector (CN10) 10BASE-T connects to the PCM-5890 via an adapter cable to a 10-pin polarized header (CN10). For 10BASE-T RJ-45 operation, an adapter cable converting CN10 into a standard RJ-45 jack is required. Network boot The Network Boot feature can be utilized by incorporating the Boot ROM image files for the appropriate network operating system. The Boot ROM BIOS files are on the included utility disk. 24 PCM-5890 User's Manual Watchdog timer configuration An on-board watchdog timer reduces the chance of disruptions which EMP (electro-magnetic pulse) interference can cause. This is an invaluable protective device for standalone or unmanned applications. Setup involves two jumpers and running the control software (refer to Appendix A). The two jumpers are: Watchdog timer enable/disable (J25) You can enable or disable the watchdog timer by reading the card's I/O ports with your program. Read address 443 hex to enable and refresh the watchdog or address 043 to disable the watchdog. For information on programming the watchdog timer see Appendix A. Configure the watchdog timer to be enabled or disabled via a two- pin jumper (J25) as shown below: Watchdog timer enable/disable *Enable Disable J25 Watchdog timer action (J23, J24) When the watchdog timer activates (CPU processing has come to a halt), it can reset the system or generate an interrupt on IRQ15. This can be set via two 2-pin jumpers (J23, J24) as shown below: Watchdog timer invokes system reset *Enable Disable J23 Watchdog timer invokes IRQ15 *Enable Disable J24 Chapter 2 Installation 25 26 PCM-5890 User's Manual 3 Software Configuration This chapter details the software configu- ration information. It shows you how to configure the card to match your applica- tion requirements. AWARD System BIOS is covered in Chapter 4. Sections include: • LCD display configuration • Connections for four standard LCDs • Ethernet interface configuration Chapter 3 Software Configuration 27 CHAPTER Introduction The PCM-5890 system BIOS and custom drivers are located in a 128 Kbyte, 32-pin (JEDEC spec.) Flash ROM device, designated U12. 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. Utility disk The PCM-5890 is supplied with a software utility disk. This disk contains the necessary file for setting up the VGA display and Ethernet controller. Directories and files on the disk are as follows: README.DOC NET (Dir) RSET8029.EXE DISPLA Y (Dir) AWDFLASH.EXE 5890_SYS.BIN 5890_CRT.BIN 5890_TFT.BIN 5890_STN.BIN 5890_STN.512 5890_MON.BIN 5890_EL.BIN CBROM.EXE RSET8029.EXE This program enables you to view the current Ethernet configura- tion, reconfigure the Ethernet interface (medium type, etc.), and execute useful diagnostic functions. AWDFLASH.EXE This program allows you to write the VGA display driver files to the BIOS Flash ROM. The VGA files all come ready formatted for the PCM-5890 with .BIN extensions. See README.DOC. These files support various CRT and flat panel displays. They are custom written and can be made available upon request. 28 PCM-5890 User's Manual 5890_SYS.BIN This binary file contains the system BIOS. 5890_CRT.BIN Supports CRT only. 5890_TFT.BIN (default) Supports 640 x 480 color TFT (Sharp LQ9D011, Toshiba LTM09C015A/016). 5890_STN.BIN (1 MB VRAM) Supports 640 x 480 color STN DD 8/16-bit displays (Sharp LM64C142). 5890_STN.512 (512 KB VRAM) Supports 640 x 480 color STN DD 8/16-bit displays (Sharp LM64C142). NOTE: This BIOS does not support simultaneous CRT and flat panel display with 512 KB VRAM 5890_MON.BIN Supports 640 x 480 dual scan monochrome displays (Sharp LM64P8X/837). 5890_EL.BIN Supports 640 x 480 EL displays (PLANAR EL640480 - A Series). CBROM.EXE This program allows you to combine your own VGA BIOS with system BIOS (5890_SYS.BIN). Chapter 3 Software Configuration 29 VGA display software configuration The PCM-5890’s on-board VGA interface supports a wide range of popular LCD, EL, gas plasma flat panel displays and traditional analog CRT monitors. The interface can drive CRT displays with resolutions up to 1024 x 768 in 256 colors. It is also capable of driving color panel displays with resolutions of 640 x 480 in 64K colors. The VGA interface is configured completely via the software utility, so you don’t have to set any jumpers. Configure the VGA display as follows: 1. Apply power to the PCM-5890 with a color TFT display attached. This is the default setting for the PCM-5890. Ensure that the AWDFLASH.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 . The VGA configuration program will then display the following: VGA Setup screen 30 PCM-5890 User's Manual 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 . 4. The screen will ask “Do you want to save BIOS?” 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 “Are you sure to program?” 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.

Chapter 4 Award BIOS Setup 41 CHAPTER System test and initialization These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines encounter an error during the tests, you will either hear a few short beeps or see an error message on the screen. There are two kinds of errors: fatal and non-fatal. The system can usually continue the boot up sequence with non-fatal errors. Non-fatal error messages usually appear on the screen along with the following instructions: press to RESUME Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the bootup sequence. System configuration verification These routines check the current system configuration against the values stored in the card’s CMOS memory. If they don’t match, the program outputs an error message. You will then need to run the BIOS setup program to set the configuration information in memory. There are three situations in which you will need to change the CMOS settings: 1. You are starting your system for the first time 2. You have changed the hardware attached to your system 3. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration information has been erased. The PCM-5890 CMOS memory has an integral lithium battery backup. The battery backup should last ten years in normal service, but when it finally runs down, you will need to replace the complete unit. 42 PCM-5890 User's Manual AWARD BIOS setup R O M P C I / I S A B I O S ( 2 A 5 L 9 A K D ) C M O S S E T U P U T I L I T Y A W A R D S O F T W A R E , I N C .

Under all circumstances, you should retain the default configuration unless advised otherwise by your system manufacturer. Choices are Level and Edge. PCI IDE IRQ Map To This allows you to configure your system to the type of IDE disk controller in use. The more apparent difference is the type of slot being used. If you have equipped 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 that individual partitions. Since each IDE controller supports two separate hard drives, you can select the INT# for each. Again, you will note that the primary has a lower interrupt than the secondary. Selecting PCI Auto allows the system to automatically determine how your IDE disk system is configured. Primary IDE INT# Refer to the above description . Chapter 4 Award BIOS Setup 51 Load BIOS DEFAULTS / LOAD SETUP DEFAULTS LOAD BIOS DEFAULTS loads the default system values directly from ROM. The BIOS Defaults provides the most stable settings, though they do not provide optimal performance. LOAD SETUP DEFAULTS, on the other hand, provides for maximum system performance. If the stored record created by the Setup program becomes corrupted (and therefore unusable), BIOS defaults will load automatically when you turn the PCM-5890 on.

Your VGA adapter is based on the CHIPS VGA Flat Panel/CRT controller and is fully IBM VGA compatible. This controller offers a large set of extended functions and higher resolutions. If you intend to use your VGA adapter in standard VGA modes only, you do not need to install any of these drivers. Since your VGA adapter is fully compatible, it does not require any special drivers to operate in standard modes. The purpose of the enclosed software drivers is to take advantage of the extended features of the CHIPS VGA Flat Panel/CRT controller. Hardware configuration Some of the high-resolution drivers provided in this package will work only in certain system configurations. If a driver does not display correctly, try the following: 1. Change the display controller to CRT-only mode, rather than flat panel or simultaneous display mode. Some high-resolution drivers will display correctly only in CRT mode. 2. If a high-resolution mode is not supported on your system, try using a lower-resolution mode. For example, 1024 x 768 mode will not work on some systems, but 800 x 600 mode is supported on most. 58 PCM-5890 User’s Manual Necessary prerequisites The instructions in this manual assume that you understand elementa- ry concepts of MS-DOS and the IBM Personal Computer. Before you attempt to install any driver or utility, you should: • Know how to copy files from a floppy disk to a directory on the hard disk • Understand the MS-DOS directory structure • Know how to format a floppy disk If you are uncertain about any of these concepts, please refer to the DOS or OS/2 user reference guides for more information, before you proceed with the installation. Before you begin Before you begin the driver software installation, you should make backup copies of the Display Driver Diskettes. Store the original disks in a safe place. Make sure you know the version of the application for which you are installing drivers. Your Display Driver Diskettes contain drivers for several versions of certain applications. For your driver to operate properly, you must install the driver for your version of the applica- tion program.

This feature ensures system reliability in industrial standalone, or unmanned, environments. Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer 67 APPENDIX Jumpers J23, J24, and J25 control the watchdog settings. The default configuration of the timer is enabled with system reset. To enable the watchdog timer, you must write a program which reads I/O port address 443 (hex) at regular intervals. The first time your program reads the port, it enables the watchdog timer. After that, your program must read the port at time interval of less than 1.6 seconds, otherwise the watchdog timer will activate and reset the CPU or generate an interrupt on IRQ15. When you want to disable the watchdog timer, your program should read I/O port 043 (hex). If CPU processing comes to a standstill because of EMI or a software bug, your program's signals to I/O port address 443 to the timer will be interrupted. The timer will then automatically reset the CPU or invoke an IRQ, and data processing will continue normally. You must write your program so that it reads I/O port address 443 at an interval shorter than the timer's preset interval. The timer's intervals have a tolerance of ±30%, so you should program an instruction that will refresh the timer about every second. The following program shows how you might program the watch- dog timer in BASIC: 10 REM Watchdog timer example program 20 X=INP (&H443) REM Enable and refresh the watch- dog 30 GOSUB 1000 REM Task #1, takes 1 second to com- plete 40 X=INP (&H443) REM Refresh the watchdog 50 GOSUB 2000 REM Task #2, takes 1 second to com- plete 60 X=INP (&H043) REM Disable the watchdog 70 END 1000 REM Subroutine #1, takes 1 second to complete . . . 1070 RETURN 2000 REM Subroutine #2, takes 1 second to complete . . . 2090 RETURN 68 PCM-5890 User's Manual B Installing PC/104 Modules This appendix gives instructions for installing PC/104 modules. Appendix B Installing PC/104 Modules 69 APPENDIX Installing PC/104 modules The PCM-5890's PC/104 connectors give you the flexibility to attach PC/104 expansion modules. These modules perform the functions of traditional plug-in expansion cards, but save space and valuable slots. Modules include: • PCM-3290 GPS Module • PCM-3810 Solid State Disk Module • PCM-3820 High Density Flash Disk Module • PCM-3110 PCMCIA Module • PCM-3111 Secondary PCMCIA Module • PCM-3610 Isolated RS-232 and RS-422/485 Module • PCM-3660 Ethernet Module • PCM-3718 30 KHz A/D Module • PCM-3724 48-Channel DIO Module • PCM-3640 4-Port RS-232 Module • PCM-3680 Dual Port CAN Module Installing these modules on the PCM-5890 is quick and simple. The following steps show how to mount the PC/104 modules: 1. Remove the PCM-5890 from your system paying particular attention to the safety instructions already mentioned above. 2. Make any jumper or link changes required to the CPU card now. Once the PC/104 module is mounted you may have difficulty in accessing these. 3. Normal PC/104 modules have male connectors and mount directly onto the main card. However, to ensure better bus matching, the connectors on the PCM-5890 and the PC/104 module are both female. For this reason, you may need to use the "male-male" adapter included with the PCM-5890 in order to properly connect your PC/104 module. (Refer to the diagram on the following page.) 4. Mount the PC/104 module onto the CPU card by pressing the module firmly but carefully onto the mounting connectors. 5. Secure the PC/104 module onto the CPU card using the four mounting spacers and srews. 70 PCM-5890 User's Manual PC/104 Mounting Support Female Male CPU Card PC/104 Module PC/104 Module Mounting Diagram 0.300 3.250 3.775 3.575 3.575 0.200 0.200 0 3.350 0.200 0 3.550 PC/104 module dimensions (inches ±5 %) Appendix B Installing PC/104 Modules 71 72 PCM-5890 User's Manual C Pin Assignments This appendix contains information of a detailed or specialized nature.

When I can't find an obsolete part, I first call GID and they'll come up with my parts every time. Great customer service and follow up as well. Scott emails me from time to time to touch base and see if we're having trouble finding something.....which is often with our 25 yr old equipment.
