KONTRON
recommends using a resettable fuse, which follows the USB 1.1
specification, for power on external USB connectors.

Configuration
You can enable or disable the two USB UHCI Host Controllers in
the BIOS Setup Utility for support of USB 1.1 devices. USB Host
Controller 1 serves the two USB Ports 0 and 1 on the front. USB

the
connector.
For high-speed USB 2.0 support of all 3 available ports, enable
the USB EHCI Host Controller.
You also can enable or disable the legacy USB support. Legacy
support is required for a USB keyboard and a USB Mouse when used
with non USB aware operating systems such as Unix or DOS. It
also is required to boot from USB mass storage devices. For more
information, see the I/O Device Configuration Submenu section in
Appendix B: BIOS Operation.

Notes: 1.
Some operating systems without USB 2.0 support do not work well with
EHCI controller enabled. If you install such an OS at the
coolMONSTER/PM please
disable the EHCI controller in the Setup Utility before installation.

Ethernet Interface
11. Ethernet INTERFACE
The coolMONSTER/PM comes with one Ethernet interface, which uses
the ICH4's integrated 32-bit PCI LAN controller in combination
with the Intel® 82562 platform LAN connect device. The network
controller supports a 10/100Base-T interface. The device auto-
negotiates the use of a 10Mbit/sec or 100Mbit/sec connection.
All major network-operating systems and several real-time and
embedded operating systems support the interface.
11.1 Ethernet Controller
The Intel® 82562 features are:
†
IEEE 802.3 10Base-T/100Base-TX compliant physical layer
interface
†
IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation support
†
IEEE 802.3x Full Duplex Flow Control standard
†
Digital Adaptive Equalization control
†
Link status interrupt capability
†
10Base-T auto-polarity correction
†
Platform LAN connect interface support
†
Diagnostic loopback mode
†
1:1 transmit transformer ratio support
†
Low power (less than 300mW in active transmit mode)
†
Reduced power in "unplugged mode"
Note:
The Ethernet interface works according to the common criteria of the embedded
technology market segment.
