Equipped with a 64-bits local bus architecture, the PCM-5894/5892 releases Pentium's full potential and provides unprecedented performance compared to current 32-bit processor boards. The PCM-5894/5892 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-5894/5892 also supports a 512 KB. L2 cache onboard. An SSD interface supports one 32-pin DIP socket for the M-Systems DiskOnChip 2000 series, memory capacity from 2MB to 72MB. Onboard features include four serial ports (three RS-232 and one RS-232/422/485), one multi-mode parallel (ECP/EPP/SPP) port, one floppy drive controller and one 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-5894/5892 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. Onboard peripherals with true PCI performance The PCM-5894/5892 is a highly integrated, all-in-one single board computer. All onboard 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 a PCI architecture has unleashed a revolutionary level of performance. The PCM-5894/5892 is one of the smallest and most powerful all-in-one Pentium boards available. 2 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual Features • Accepts Intel Pentium MMX 166~233MHz, AMD-K6/200~300AFR, Cyrix /IBM/6x86MX-PR166~266GP and IDT winchip C6 180~225MHz • DiskOnChip (SSD) up to 72MB • C&T 65554 LCD controller supports 36-bit TFT panels • 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet, supports remote boot ROM function • Bus Master IDE and Ultra DMA/33 supported • Three RS-232 and one RS-232/422/485 serial port Chapter 1 General Information 3 Specifications Standard SBC functions • CPU: Intel Pentium MMX 166~233MHz, AMD-K6/200~266AFR, Cyrix /IBM/6x86MX-PR166~266GP and IDT winchip C6 180~225MHz • BIOS: Award FLASH BIOS • Chipset: SiS5582 (PCM-5892)/SiS5598(PCM-5894) • Level 2 cache: Onboard 512KB pipeline burst L2 cache. • System memory: 8MB to 128MB.

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. 14 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual CPU installing and upgrading You can upgrade to a more powerful Pentium CPU or compatible 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. 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 15 Installing DRAM (SIMMs) The PCM-5894/5892 provides two 72-pin SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) sockets. The SIMM supports either Fast Page Mode (FPM) or Extended Data Output (EDO) DRAM with a speed of at least 70 ns. Depending on the combinations of the modules you use, you can install from 4 MB to 128 MB of RAM. Installing SIMMs NOTE 1: Pentium or compatible processors adopt 64 bit data bus. Since 72-pin SIMM can only provide 32 bit data bus width, two SIMM modules are required as one memory bank, and both SIMMs must be the same size and type. 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. NOTE 2: Do not insert any SIMM module that contains more than 24 memory chips. SIMMs contain more than 24 chips exceed the driving capability of new generation chipsets. 16 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual Internal VGA setting (J1) (for PCM-5892 chipset only) This jumpers is reserved for factory use.

The mainboard's IDE controller uses a PCI local-bus interface. This advanced interface supports faster data transfer and allows the IDE hard drive to exceed 528 MB. 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 connect. Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray. 1. Connect one end of the cable to CN11. 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 1on the cable corresponding to pin 1 on the hard drives. (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.

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 1 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 connector (usually used for 5¼" drives). Connecting the floppy drive 1. Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN16. 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 information. If you desire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the middle of the cable as described above.

Push the DOC into the socket until it is firmly seated in the socket. Caution: the DOC may be permanently damage if it is installed incorrectly. 3. Set the jumper for the memory address of the DOC. Note: The memory shadow function sometimes will create conflicts with the memory window. You should disable the memory shadow from the BIOS SETUP if the DOC cannot be accessed. Configure DOC as a boot device To configure a DOC as a boot drive, you should copy the operating system files onto the DOC. The following procedure is an example of the initialization process. 1. Install a DOC into your system. 2. Insert a bootable floppy disk in drive A: and boot the system. 3. At the DOS prompt, type SYS C: to transfer the DOS system files to the DOC (assuming the DiskOnChip is installed as drive C:). Reboot the system. 4. Go to the BIOS Setup Utility by hitting the key. Set the type of Primary Master or C: Drive as Not Installed. 5. Remove the floppy disk from the drive A: and leave the BIOS Setup Utility. The system should boot from the DOC. 40 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual CPU jumper setting example CPU Internal J2 J8 J10 J12 Clock Clock Ratio Dual/single-Voltage Vcore 1 3 5 2 4 6 Intel Pentium 75MHz 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 P54C(75) 2 4 6 1 3 5 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 Intel Pentium 91MHz 1 3 5 2 4 6 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 P54C(90) 2 4 6 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 Intel Pentium 100MHz 2 4 6 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 P54C(100) 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 Intel Pentium 120MHz 1 3 5 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 P54C(120) 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 Intel Pentium 133MHz 1 3 5 1 3 5 P54C(133) 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 1 3 5 2 4 6 Intel Pentium 150MHz 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 P54C(150) 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 Intel Pentium 166MHz 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 P54C(166) 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 Intel Pentium 200MHz 1 3 5 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 P54C(200) 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 Chapter 2 Installation 41 CPU jumper setting example CPU Internal J2 J8 J10 J12 Clock Clock Ratio Dual/single-Voltage Vcore Intel Pentium 150MHz 8 6 4 2 2 4 6 1 3 5 1 3 5 P55C PP/MT (150) 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 Intel Pentium 166MHz 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 1 3 5 P55C PP/MT (166) 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 2 4 6 Intel Pentium 200MHz 1 3 5 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 P55C PP/MT (200) 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 2 4 6 Intel Pentium 233MHz 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 P55C PP/MT (233) 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 42 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual CPU jumper setting example CPU Internal J2 J8 J10 J12 Clock Clock Ratio Dual/single-Voltage Vcore Cyrix 133MHz 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 1 3 5 2 4 6 MX-PR-166 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 Cyrix 150MHz 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 1 3 5 MX-PR166 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 1 3 5 2 4 6 Cyrix 150MHz 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 1 3 5 MX-PR200 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 1 3 5 2 4 6 Cyrix 166MHz 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 2 4 6 M2-PR200 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 1 3 5 Cyrix 188MHz 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 1 3 5 2 4 6 M2-PR233 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 Cyrix 200MHz 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 1 3 5 M2-PR233 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 1 3 5 Cyrix 225MHz 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 1 3 5 2 4 6 M2-PR266 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 Cyrix 233MHz 1 3 5 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 M2-PR266 2 4 6 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 Chapter 2 Installation 43 CPU jumper setting example CPU Internal J2 J8 J10 J12 Clock Clock Ratio Dual/single-Voltage Vcore AMD K5 75MHz 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 PR75 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 AMD K5 90MHz 2 4 6 1 3 5 1 3 5 PR90 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 AMD K5 100MHz 1 3 5 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 PR100 2 4 6 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 AMD K5 90MHz 1 3 5 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 PR120 2 4 6 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 AMD K5 100MHz 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 1 3 5 PR133 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 44 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual CPU jumper setting example CPU Internal J2 J8 J10 J12 Clock Clock Ratio Dual/single-Voltage Vcore AMD K6 166MHz 1 3 5 2 4 6 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 PR2-166 2 4 6 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 2 4 6 AMD K6 200MHz 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 PR2-200 1 3 5 2 4 6 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 AMD K6 233MHz 1 3 5 1 3 5 8 6 4 2 PR2-233 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 AMD K6 266MHz 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 PR2-266 2 4 6 2 4 6 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 AMD K6 233MHz 1 3 5 2 4 6 8 6 4 2 1 3 5 PR2-300 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 2 4 6 1 3 5 Chapter 2 Installation 45 46 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual 3 Award BIOS Setup This chapter describes how to configure the BIOS for the PCM-5894/5892. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 47 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 nonfatal. The system can usually continue the boot up sequence with nonfatal errors. Nonfatal 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.

However, it depends on the CPU/chipset design. Quick Power On Self Test This category speeds up Power On Self Test (POST) after you power up the computer. If it is set to Enabled, BIOS will shorten or skip some check items during POST. Boot Sequence This category determines which drive to search first for the operating system. Swap Floppy Drive This item allows you to swap the floppy drive assignments so that drive A is treated as drive B and drive B is treated as drive A under DOS. The default setting is Disabled. Boot Up Floppy Seek During POST, the BIOS will determine if the floppy disk drive installed is 40 or 80 tracks. 360KB type is 40 tracks while 760KB, 1.2MB, and 1.44MB are all 80 tracks. Boot Up NumLock Status This allows you to determine the default state of the numeric keypad on an IBM-compatible extended keyboard. Boot Up System Speed This allows you to determine the Boot Up Speed. The choices are High/Low. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 55 Gate A20 Option This entry allows you to select how gate A20 is handled. Gate A20 is a device used to address memory above 1 MB. Initially, gate A20 was handled via a pin on the keyboard. Today keyboards still provide this support, however it is more common and much faster for the system chipset to provide support for gate A20. The choices are thus: Normal and Fast. Security Option This category allows you to limit access to the system. The choices are System: which requires a password at boot up and Setup: which only requires a password to access the setup utility. Video BIOS Shadow Determines whether the video display card BIOS will be copied into system DRAM in order to increase display speed and is required for system performance. However, it is optional depending on the chipset design. The default setting is Enabled. Shadowing Address Ranges The next six lines, from C8000-CBFFF Shadow to DC000-DFFFF Shadow are address ranges for shadowing other expansion card ROMs. If there are any expansion cards with ROMs installed in your system, you have to know the address range they use in order to shadow them specifically. The default setting for all of these is Disabled. 56 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual CHIPSET features setup By choosing the CHIPSET FEATURES SETUP option from the INITIAL SETUP SCREEN menu, the screen below is displayed.

RAS Precharge Time DRAM must continually be refreshed or it will lose its data. Normally, DRAM is refreshed entirely as the result of a single request. This option allows you to determine the number of CPU clocks allocated for the Row Address Strobe to accumulate its charge before the DRAM is refreshed. If insufficient time is allowed, refresh may be incomplete and data lost. RAS to CAS Delay When DRAM is refreshed, both rows and columns are addressed separately. This setup item allows you to determine the timing of the transition from Row Address Strobe (RAS) to Column Address Strobe (CAS). CPU to PCI Post Write Set this option to Enabled to give priority to posted messages from the CPU to PCI bus.

In the power management scheme there are four system states which proceed in the following sequence: Normal � Doze � Standby � Suspend 62 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual There are four selections for Power Management (PM): Disabled Turns off PM Max Saving Maximized power saving by activating maxi- mum power saving settings after one minute of system inactivity. Min Saving Produces less power saving by activating moderate power saving settings after one hour of system inactivity. User Defined You set the power saving options manually. With the exception of Disabled, three of the above selections have "fixed-mode" settings. Therefore, when PM is set to Disabled, some items which are predefined will become unmodifiable. PM Control by APM When this is set to Yes, the Advanced Power Management feature in Microsoft Windows controls power management operation. The default setting is No. Video Off Option User can select 4 different modes for turning off the video. The modes are a function of the PM mode of the computer. The choices are All Modes�Off, Always On, Suspend�Off, and Susp, St- by�Off. The table below summarizes the behavior of the monitor in relation to the four PM modes. PM Mode Monitor Behavior All Modes Off - Always On Suspend Off Susp, Stby Off For example, if you choose Suspend�Off, then the monitor will turn off if the computer is in the Suspend PM mode. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 63 Video Off Method This governs monitor power saving by controlling how power management blanks the monitor screen. The default setting blanks the screen and turns off vertical and horizontal scanning and requires a monitor with "green" features. If you don't have this type of monitor, use the Blank option. DPMS (Display Power Management System) allows the BIOS to control the video display card if the card has the DPMS feature. V/H SYNC+Blank (Default) BLANK (non-green monitor, less saving) DPMS (Display card must support DPMS) Modem Use IRQ If you have a modem installed in your system, you can enter which IRQ it is using so that APM can control it. Hot Key SMI This allows the user to use the hot key to enter the Suspend mode. Press any key to wake up the comput- er. The default setting is Disabled. 64 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual HDD Off After When enabled and after the selected time of system inactivity, the hard disk drive will be powered down while all other devices will remain active. Doze Mode This sets the period of system inactivity after which the system goes into Doze mode, the most limited power saving state. The settings range from 20 seconds to 40 minutes and can be set manually when power management is in User Define mode. The default setting is Disabled. When the system goes into power saving mode, power management will skip to the next mode in the sequence if this is disabled. Standby Mode This sets the period of system inactivity after which the system goes into Standby mode, the intermediate power saving state. The settings range from 20 seconds to 40 minutes and can be set manually when power management is in User Define mode. The default setting is Disabled. When the system goes into power saving mode, power management will skip to the next mode in the sequence if this is disabled. Suspend Mode This sets the period of system inactivity after which the system goes into Suspend mode, the maximum power saving state. The settings range from 20 seconds to 40 minutes and can be set manually when power management is in User Define mode. The default setting is Disabled. When the system goes into power saving mode, power management will skip to the next mode in the sequence if this is disabled. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 65 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. When an I/O device wants to gain the attention of the operating system, it signals this by causing an IRQ (Interrupt ReQuest) to occur. When the operating system is ready to respond to the request, it interrupts itself and performs the service. The following is a list of IRQs, which can be disabled: • COM Ports Activity • LPT Ports Activity • HDD Ports Activity • VGA Activity • IRQ3 (COM 2) • IRQ4 (COM 1) • IRQ5 (LPT 2) • IRQ6 (Floppy Disk) • IRQ7 (LPT 1) • IRQ8 (RTC Alarm) • IRQ9 (IRQ2 Redir) • IRQ10 (Reserved) • IRQ11 (Reserved) • IRQ12 (PS/2 Mouse) • IRQ13 (Coprocessor) • IRQ14 (Hard Disk) • IRQ15 (Reserved) 66 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual PNP/PCI configuration setup By choosing the PNP/PCI CONFIGURATION SETUP option from the initial SETUP SCREEN menu, the screen below is displayed.

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 by your system manufacturer. The choices are Level/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, D) is associated with the connected hard drives. This setting refers to the hard disk drive itself, rather than individu- al partitions. Selecting PCI Auto allows the system to automatically determine how your IDE disk system is configured. Primary IDE INT# Refer to the above discription of PCI IDE IRQ.

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 mode 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. 82 PCM-5894/5892 User 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 CD-ROM to a directory on the hard disk • Understand the MS-DOS directory structure 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.

This feature ensures system reliability in industrial stand-alone and unmanned environments. Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer 101 APPENDIX Programming the watchdog timer How to program the WATCHDOG TIMER 1. To set the time-out interval of watchdog timer: -- output the desired value to port 0x443. Since the data is of 1 byte, the maximum value will be 255. In our design 1 ~ 127 will denote 1sec ~ 127sec, though 129 ~ 255 will denote lmin ~ 127min. e.g. outportb(0x443, 30); // set interval to 30 seconds outportb(0x443, 0x85); // set interval to 5 minutes 2. To set the time-out event: -- output data to prot 0x444, • 0: reset system • 1, 2, 3: IRQ 10, 15, 11 respectively • 4: NMI e.g. outportb(0x444, 0); // set time-out event to reset-system 3. To disable watchdog timer: -- output any value to port 0x80, e.g. outportb(0x80, data); // disable watchdog timer 4. To ebable or refresh watchdog timer(the watchdog timer will return to its initial value, then count down): -- access the I/O port 0x443, e.g. outportb(0x80, 0); // disable watchdog timer inportb(0x443); // refresh watchdog timer * note: if you want to refresh the watchdog timer, you have to disable it first. 102 PCM-5894/5892 User Manual Demo program outportb(0x444, 0): // set time-out event to reset-system outportb(0x443x 10); // set time-out interval to 10 seconds iutportb(0x443); // enable watchdog timer customer_job(); // execute your job here, be sure your job will finished within 10 seconds outportb(0x80, 0); // refresh watchdog timer, otherwise the system will reset after time-out outputb(0x443, 20); // set time-out interval to 20 seconds inportb(0x443); // enable watchdog timer another_job(); // another job finished in 20 seconds outportb(0x80, 0) // disable watchdog timer ... ...
