Chapter 1 General Information 1
CHAPTER
Introduction
The SBC-554V/555 is an all-in-one single board Pentium computer
incorporating the latest PISA Bus interface for SBC-554V and one ISA
Bus for SBC-555. Unlike ISA Bus card, SBC-554V supports PCI and
ISA interface for the user to connect PCI and ISA add-on cards. With
an on-board flat panel/CRT SVGA controller, the SBC-554V/555 packs
all the functions of an industrial computer and its display capabilities
onto a single, half-size card. This means the SBC-554V/555 is your
absolute best solution for embedded applications.
The on-board PCI-bus, flat panel/CRT SVGA controller uses the CHIPS
65554 chipset with 2 MB of video memory on board. This chipset, used
with local PCI-bus, is a 64-bit graphics engine. Excellent for display-
intensive applications, this card supports various LCD types, includ-
ing TFT, DSTN, MONO, and EL.
Another feature of the SBC-554V/555 is the inclusion of a high speed,
local bus IDE controller. This controller supports (through ATA PIO)
mode 3 and mode 4 hard disks, and Ultra DMA/33, enabling data
transfer rates up to 33 MB/second. Up to two IDE devices can be
connected, including large hard disks, CD-ROM drives, tape backup
drives, or other IDE devices.
On-board features include two high-speed RS-232 serial ports with
16C550 UARTs, one bidirectional SPP/EPP/ECP parallel port, and one
floppy drive controller. In addition, the SBC-554V/555 includes an
extra 512 KB of second level on-board cache memory.
If program execution is halted by a program bug or EMI, the board's
watchdog timer can automatically reset the CPU or generate an
interrupt. This ensures reliability in unmanned or stand alone systems.
The SBC-554V/555 supports 5V or 3.3V EDO DRAM. It also provides
two 72-pin SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) sockets for its on-
board system DRAM. These sockets give you the flexibility to
configure your system from 1 MB to 128 MB of DRAM using the most
economical combination of SIMMs.

Setting jumpers
You configure your card to match the needs of your application by
setting jumpers. 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.

Open Closed Closed 2-3
A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with
jumpers.
If you have any doubt about the best hardware configuration for
your applications, contact your local distributor or sales represen-
tative before you make any change.
Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most connec-
tions.
12 SBC-554V/555 User Manual
Safety precautions
Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord from
your chassis whenever you are working on it. Do
not make connections while the power is on
because sensitive electronic components can be
damaged by the sudden rush of power. 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. 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.
Installing the CPU
The SBC-554V CPU card supports most Pentiums and their
compatible CPUs. The system's performance depends on the CPU
you choose. You can install or upgrade the CPU in the board's PGA
socket by following the procedures outlined below. If your system
has an existing CPU, you need to remove it before installing the
new CPU.
Removing a CPU
1. Disconnect power from the chassis, and unplug all connections
to the CPU card. Then, remove the CPU card from the chassis
by following the instructions in the user's manual for your
chassis.
2. Lift the CPU out of the PGA socket. The old chip may be
difficult to remove. You may find spray chip lubricant, designed
for pin-grid-array (PGA) devices, and a chip puller helpful.
These are available at electronics hobbyists' supply stores.
Chapter 2 Installation 13
Installing a CPU
To install the CPU, follow the instructions that came with it. If no
documentation was provided, the general procedures for installing
a CPU are outlined below:
1. Lubricate the pins on the CPU with lubricant for PGA devices.
This makes the CPU slide in much easier and greatly reduces
the chance of damaging the pins and other components.
2. Carefully align the CPU so that it is parallel to the socket. Make
sure that the notch on the corner of the CPU matches the notch
on the inside of the socket.
3. Gently push the CPU into the socket. There will probably be a
small gap between the CPU and the socket even when it is fully
seated. DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE!
When you install a new CPU, you may have to adjust other
settings on the board, such as CPU type, CPU clock, and PCI
speed, to accommodate it. Make sure that the settings are correct
for your CPU. Improper settings may damage the CPU.

Installing SIMMs
Note that the modules can only fit into a socket one way.
1. Insert the memory module into the socket at a moderate angle.
2. 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 correspond to the
circular holes on the ends of the module.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each module you install.
Removing SIMMs
If you need to remove a SIMM, follow the procedures below:
1. Supporting the SIMM with a finger, use a pen or a similarly
shaped object and press one retaining clip straight down.
2. Repeat for the other side. When released, the retaining clips will
push the SIMM up and out of its upright position.
3. Carefully pull the SIMM out of the socket with your fingers.
4. Repeat the above steps for each module you remove.

IDE hard drive connector (CN1)
You can attach one or two Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics
hard disk drives to the SBC-554V/555's internal controller. The
SBC-554V/555's IDE controller uses a PCI local-bus interface and
supports faster data transfer.
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 CN1. 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 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 just one drive, set it as the master.

Floppy drive connector (CN2)
You can attach up to two floppy disks to the SBC-554V/555 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 connec-
tor. 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 connector (usually used for
5¼" drives).
Connecting the floppy drive
1. Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN2. Make sure that
the red wire corresponds to pin 1 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 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 1. Look for a number
printed on the circuit board indicating pin number 1. Also, the
connector on the floppy drive connector may have a slot.
When the slot is up, pin number 1 should be on the right. Check
the documentation that came with the drive for more informa-
tion.
If you desire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the
middle of the cable as described above.

This category determines which drive to search first for the disk
operating system (i.e., DOS).
Swap Floppy Drive
This item allows you to determine whether you want to swap
floppy drive or not.
Boot Up Floppy Seek
During POST, BIOS will determine if the floppy disk drive
installed is 40 or 80 tracks. 360K type is 40 tracks while 760K,
1.2M and 1.44M are all 80 tracks.

PM Timers
The following four modes are Green PC power saving functions
which are only user configurable when User Defind Power
Management has been selected. See above for available selec-
tions.
HDD Off After
When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, the hard
disk drive will be powered down while all other devices remain
active.
Doze Mode
When enabled and after th eset time of system inactivity, th eCPU
clock will run at slower speed while all other devices still operate
at full speed.
Standby Mode
When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, the fixed
disk drive and the video would be shut off while all other devices
still operate at full speed.
Suspend Mode
When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, all
devices except the CPU will be shut off.
PM Events
PM events are I/O events whose occurrence can prevent the
system from entering a power saving mode or can awaken the
system from such a mode. In effect, the system remains alert for
anything which occurs to a device which is configured as Enabled,
even when the system is in a power down mode.
The following is a list of IRQ, Interrupt ReQuests, which can be
exempted much as the COM ports and LPT ports above can.
When an I/O device wants to gain the attention of the operating
system, it signals this by causing an IRQ to occur. When the
operating system is ready to respond to the request, it interrupts
itself and performs the service.

PnP/PCI Configuration setup
By choosing the PCI CONFIGURATION SETUP option from the
INITIAL SETUP SCREEN menu, the screen below is displayed.
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or
Personal Computer Interconnect, is a system which allows I/O
devices to operate at speeds nearing the speed the CPU itself uses
when communicating with its own special components. This
section covers some very technical items and it is strongly
recommended that only experienced users should make any
changes to the default settings. The following configurations are
based on the manufacturer's SETUP DEFAULTS Settings.

This item allows you to determine reset the configuration data or
not.

This item allows you to determine the IRQ/DMA assigned to the
ISA bus and is not available to any PCI slot.
PCI IRQ Activated By
This sets the method by which the PCI bus recognizes that an IRQ
service is being requested by a device. Under all circumstances,
you should retain the default configuration unless advised other-
wise 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 than 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 abve description of PCI IDE IRQ.

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 SBC-554V/555
on.
