The channels are connected to the interrupt circuitry. Users can disable/ enable interrupt function, select trigger type or latch the port data by set- ting the Interrupt Control Register of the UNO-2050E. When the interrupt request signals occur, then the software will service these interrupt requests by ISR (Interrupt Service Routine).

UNO-2050E is as follows, please follows these steps carefully. Step 1: Remove power cord. Step 2: Unscrew four screws from the rear panel of the UNO-2050E. Step 3: Remove the rear panel. Step 4: Plug a CompactFlash card with user’s OS and application program into a CompactFlash card slot on board.
3.3 Connect the Power Connect the UNO-2050E to a 9 ~ 30 V power source. The power source can either be from a power adapter or an in-house power source. 3.4 Wiring Considerations There are several I/O interfaces use a plug-in screw terminal block for the interface between I/O modules and field devices.
3.6 HDD Extension Flexibility Although UNO-2050E is an embedded platform, there is reserve flexibil- ity to install one 2.5” HDD. Some customers want to install a popular operating system, like Windows 2000/XP or need for larger data storage capability. UNO-2050E is also an ideal platform for applications with HDD demand.

Terminator Resistors Setup for RS-422/485 The 120W terminal resistors for impedance matching on the UNO-2050E are installed on board by selecting jumper JP7. Each terminal resistor cor- responds to different channels for RS-422/485 signal lines. Usually, these resistors are needed for both ends of the communication wires and the value of the resistors should match the characteristic impedance of the wires used.
(such as RTS, Request To Send) in RS-232 are normally used to control the direction of the data flow and to switch the transmis- sion accordingly. In RS-485 mode, the UNO-2050E automatically senses the direction of the data flow and switches the transmission direction - no handshaking is necessary.

H-SYNC V-SYNC Chipset The UNO-2050E uses a AMD CS5535 chipset for its SVGA controller. It supports interlaced and non-interlaced analog monitors (color and mono- chrome VGA) in high-resolution modes while maintaining complete IBM VGA compatibility. Digital monitors (i.e. MDA, CGA and EGA) are NOT supported.
1998. The Microdrive is built into a Type II CompactFlash form factor. A 1GB CompactFlash card is equipped in the UNO-2050EXP with Win- dows XPe OS. For UNO-2050E, there is no CompactFlash card on the slot. UNO-2050E also supports IBM Microdrive storage device, which is an ultra-miniature hard disk from IBM that was introduced in 1998.
