W5– Remote reset on Serial Port 1 or Serial Port 2 or disabled to select whether the
serial port 1 or 2 is used to control the remote reset
Bios Settings
None
The remote reset will work in RS-232 and RS-422 modes. It will also work with a modem,
since the modem will repeat the break signal over the telephone network. All major
telecommunication software have the capability of sending a break signal, usually by pressing
the CTRL-B keys or the ALT-B keys on the keyboard. Only a standard telephone line and a
modem in auto-answer mode are needed. The only limitation is that the communication speed
must be 1200bps or more. If the communication speed is to slow, a false reset can occur.
The break signal is entirely detected by hardware. For truly remote operation, use the VT-100
mode, which allows remote BIOS setup and console redirection.
2.9.1.2.
Front Plate Configuration
The Serial Port 1 signals are available through a DB-9 connector located on the front plate.
cPCI I/O Configuration

Transition Module (RTM).
2.9.2 Serial Port 2
Serial Port 2 is buffered directly for RS-232 operations and is 16C550 PC-Compatible. The
interface includes the complete signal set for handshaking, modem control, interrupt
generation, and data transfer.
The Serial Port 2 port is 100% compatible with the IBM-AT serial port.
Signal Path
Serial Port 2 signals are only available through the J5 cPCI I/O connector.
