  • Page 27: Pnp/Pci Configuration

    4.7 PNP/PCI Configuration The PNP/PCI Configuration help users to set ROCKY-538TXV board’s “PCI” function. All PCI bus slots on the system use INTA#, thus all installed PCI slots must be set to this value. PNP OS Installed : Yes or No When PNP OS is installed, interrupts may be reassigned by the OS when the setting is Yes.
  • Page 28: Appendix A. E 2 Key™ Function

    A quick and easy way to learn to use the function is to first review EKEYDEMO.C code included. Please note the E KEY™ function is only available if the parallel port is working. In other words, you should enable ROCKY-538TXV’s parallel port, otherwise will this function will be not working.
  • Page 29: Appendix B. Watch-Dog Timer

    Appendix B. Watch-Dog Timer The Watch-Dog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone systems can always recover from catastrophic conditions that caused the CPU to crash. This condition may have occurred by external EMI or a software bug. When the CPU stops working correctly, hardware on the board will either perform a hardware reset (cold boot) or a non-maskable interrupt (NMI) to bring the system back to a known state.
