Chapter 1 General Information General Information This chapter gives background information on the PCM-9340. Sections include: • Introduction • Features • Specifications • Board layout and dimensions Chapter 1 General Information...
Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Introduction The PCM-9340 is the ultimate cost-effective solution for limited-space applications. It offers all the functions of an AT-compatible industrial computer on a single board. The PCM-9340 comes with an embedded high-performance STPC Elite 133 processor and 32MB SDRAM on board.
Chapter 2 Connecting Peripherals Connecting Peripherals This chapter tells how to connect peripherals, switches, and indicators to the PCM-9340 board. It also covers jumper settings. You can access most of the con- nectors from the top of the board while it is installed in the chassis.
Chapter 2 Installation 2.1 Jumpers The PCM-9340 has a number of jumpers that allow you to configure your system to suit your application. 2.1.1 Jumper Locations Figure 2.1: Jumper Locations PCM-9340 User’s Manual...
2.1.2 Jumper Functions Table 2.1: Jumper Functions Label Function COM2 selector Watchdog timer action DOC® 2000 address setting Clear CMOS Audio power selector 2.1.3 Setting Jumpers You may configure your card to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electric cir- cuit.
2.2 COM2 Select (JP2) Table 2.2: JP2: COM2 RS-232/422/485 Select Pins Function 1-2* COM2/RS-232* COM2/RS-422 COM2/RS-485 * default setting RS-232* RS-422 RS-485 2.3 Watchdog Timer Action (JP3) An on-board watchdog timer reduces the chance of disruptions which EMP (electro-magnetic pulse) interference can cause. This is an invalu- able protective device for standalone or unmanned applications.
2.5 Clear CMOS (JP5) Warning! To avoid damaging the computer, always turn off the power supply before clearing the CMOS. Before turning the power supply back on, return the jumper to “3.0 V Battery On.” Table 2.5: JP5: Clear CMOS Pins Function clear CMOS...

2.8 Making Connections The following sections tell how to make each connection. In most cases, you will simply need to connect a standard cable. All of the connector pin assignments are shown in Appendix C. Always completely disconnect the power cord Warning! from your chassis whenever you are working on it.
2.10.2 COM2 RS-232/422/485 selection (CN3) This secondary port between CN2 and CN4 consists of a 14-pin, dual-in- line, male header, and can be configured, via JP2 (q.v.), to operate in RS- 232, RS-422, or RS-485 mode. The IRQs and address ranges for the COM ports are fixed. However, if you wish to disable a port or change these parameters later, you can do this in the system BIOS setup.
2.12.1 100Base-T RJ-45 connector (CN6) 100Base-T connections are made via the on-board RJ-45 connector. 2.12.2 Network boot The network boot feature is built into the BIOS. It can be enabled or dis- abled in the chipset setup of the CMOS configuration. Refer to Chapter 3, “Award BIOS Setup,”...
2.14 IR connector (CN8) This connector supports the optional wireless infrared transmitting and receiving module. This module mounts on the system case. You must configure the setting through BIOS setup. 2.15 Enhanced IDE HDD Connector (CN9) You can attach two IDE (Integrated Device Electronics) drives to the PCM-9340 internal controller.
2.16.2 Extension flat panel connector (CN15) CN15 consists of a 20-pin connector which is Hirose’s product no. DF13A-20DP-1.25V. The PCM-9340 supports a 36-bit LCD panel which must be connected to both the CN19 (40-pin) and the CN15 (20-pin). The pin assignments for both CN19 and the CN15 can be found in Appendix 2.16.3 Flat panel display connector (CN19) CN19 consists of a 40-pin connector which can support a 24-bit LCD panel.

Table 2.11: JP7: Audio Power Source Setting Pins Function 1-2* +5V (main power) Regulated +5V +5V (main power)* Regulated +5V * default setting Configuration of the audio interface may be done entirely via the soft- ware utility.
2.18 ATX power (CN13, CN16, CN22) The PCM-9340 supports an advanced soft power switch function, if an ATX power supply is used. Important Make sure that the ATX power supply can take at least a 10 mA load on the 5 V standby lead (5VSB).
2.19 FDD connector (CN14) You can attach up to two floppy disk drives to the PCM-9340's onboard controller. You can use any combination of 5.25" (360 KB/1.2 MB) and/ or 3.5" (720 KB/1.44/2.88 MB) drives. The card comes with a 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable. On one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector.
Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 3.1 System test and initialization These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines encoun- ter 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.

Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer Programming the Watchdog Timer The PCM-9340 is equipped with a watchdog timer that resets the CPU or generates an interrupt if processing comes to a standstill for any reason. This feature ensures system reliability in industrial standalone or unmanned envi- ronments.
Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer A.1 Supported Input Timing Modes In order to program the watchdog timer, you must write a program which writes I/O port address 443 (hex). The output data is a value of time inter- val. The value range is from 01 (hex) to 3E (hex), and the related time interval is 1 sec.
