Battery-backup RAM: 512 KB Battery-backup RAM VGA/Keyboard/Mouse: DB-15 VGA Connector, PS/2 keyboard and mouse Serial Ports: 2 x RS-232 and 2 x RS-232/422/485 with DB-9 connectors. Automatic RS-485 data flow control Serial Speeds: RS-232: 50~115.2 kbps, RS-422/485: 50~921.6 kbps LAN: Two 10/100 Base-T RJ-45 Ports...
1.3 Safety Precautions The following sections tell how to make each connection. In most cases, you will simply need to connect a standard cable. Warning! Always disconnect the power cord from your chassis whenever you are working on it. Do not connect while the power is on.
Chapter 2 Hardware Functionality 2.1 Introduction The following two figures show the connectors on UNO-2170. The following sections give you detailed information about function of each peripheral. Figure 2.1: Front panel of UNO-2170 Figure 2.2: Rear panel of UNO-2170 2.2 RS-232 Interface (COM1~COM2) The UNO-2170 offers two standard RS-232 serial communication inter- face ports: COM1 and COM2.
2.3 RS-232/422/485 Interface (COM3~COM4) The UNO-2170 offers two RS-232/422/485 serial communication interface ports: COM3 and COM4. Please refer to Appendix A.4 for their pin assignments. The default setting of COM3 and COM4 are RS-422/485. 2.3.1 16C550 UARTs with 16-byte standard Advantech UNO-2170 comes with TI16C550 UARTs containing 16 bytes FIFOs.
2.3.5 RS-232/422/485 Selection COM3 and COM4 support 9-wire RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 inter faces. The system detects RS-422 or RS-485 signals automatically in RS- 422/485 mode. To select between RS-422/485 and RS-232 for COM3, adjust JP4. To select between RS-422/485 and RS-232 for COM4, adjust JP5. Jumper setting for RS-422/485 interface: (Default setting).
2.3.6 RS-485 Auto Flow Control Mode and RS-422 Master/Slave Mode Selection You can set the “Auto Flow Control mode of RS-485 or “Master/Slave" mode of RS-422 by using the SW3 DIP switch for each RS-422/485 port. In RS-485, if the switch is set to “Auto" the driver automatically senses the direction of the data flow and switches the direction of transmission.
2.3.7 IRQ and Address Setting The IRQ and I/O address range of COM3 and COM4 are listed below: COM3: 3E8H, IRQ10 (Independent IRQ), IRQ10 (Share IRQ) COM4: 2E8H, IRQ5 (Independent IRQ), IRQ10 (Share IRQ) Vector address for share IRQ: 1D0H You can set “Share IRQ"...
2.4 LAN: Ethernet Connector The UNO-2170 is equipped with a Realtek RTL8139C Ethernet LAN controller that is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3u 10/100Base-T CSMA/CD standards. The Ethernet port provides a standard RJ-45 jack on board, and LED indicators on the front side to show its Link (Green LED) and Active (Yellow LED) status.
2.8 PCMCIA: PC Card Slot The UNO-2170 provides one PC Card slot that supports CardBus (Card- 32) cards and 16-bit (PCMCIA 2.1/JEIDA 4.2) card standards. It supports +3.3 V, +5 V and +12 V @ 120 mA working voltage. The PC Card is 85.6 mm long by 54 mm wide (3.37"...
2.10 Battery Backup SRAM UNO-2170 provides 512 KB of battery backed SRAM. This ensures that you have a safe place to store critical data. You can now write software applications without being concerned that system crashes will erase criti- cal data from the memory. There is a BTRY LED in the front panel of the UNO-2170, please replace the lithium battery with a new one if the BTRY LED is activated.

Initial Setup This chapter introduces how to initialize the UNO-2170. Sections include: • Introduction • Inserting a CompactFlash™ Card • Chassis Grounding • Connecting Power • Connecting a Hard Disk • BIOS Setup and System Assignments...
Chapter 3 Initial Setup 3.1 Inserting a CompactFlash Card The procedure for installing a CompactFlash™ card into the UNO-2170 is detailed below, please follow these steps carefully. 1. Remove the power cord. 2. Unscrew the four screws from the rear panel of the UNO-2170. 3.
You can select if you wish to combine the chassis grounding point with the system grounding by using an onboard jumper selection. (JP7) Open - Separates system power ground and chassis ground. (default) Closed - Connects system power ground and chassis ground.
A.2 Board Connectors and Jumpers There are several connectors and jumpers on the UNO-2170 board. The following sections tell you how to configure the UNO-2170 hardware setting. Figure A-1 and Figure A-2 show the locations of UNO-2170’s connectors and jumpers.
