Getting Started This chapter explains how to install necessary components on the cPCI-6842 and cPCI-6842-2 including: CPU and heat sink Memory module installation HDD installation PMC installation CF card installation (cPCI-6842 only) Main board installation 3.1 CPU and Heatsink The cPCI-6842 and cPCI-6842-2 support the Intel® Pentium® M processor.
Heatsink Installation Remove the two mylar films from the underside of the heatsink. Place the heatsink on the board, ensuring that the thermal pads make proper contact with the CPU and northbride, as shown in Figure 3-2: Heatsink Installation below. Secure using the 6 spring-loaded screws provided.
3.2 Memory Module Installation The cPCI-6842 series SBC provides two 184-pin sockets for ECC DDR-SDRAM with a maximum memory capacity of 2GB. If mem- ory modules are pre-installed when the package is received, this section may be skipped. The GMCH system memory controller directly supports the follow-...
3.3 HDD Installation on Main Board A slim-type 2.5-inch HDD can be mounted on the cPCI-6842 or cPCI-6842-2. If a HDD is pre-installed, this section may be skipped. 1. Remove the PMC from the PMC slot if any. 2. Screw the standoffs onto the HDD and attach a 44-pin IDE cable.
3.4 PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) Installation The PMC slot is designed for 5V and/or universal PCI interfaces. The PMC site is keyed to prevent users from installing a 3.3V only PMC module. To install the PMC modules: 1. Prepare an ESD protected area including an anti-ESD table and ESD strap.
3.5 CF Installation (cPCI-6842 only) The CompactFlash card is widely applied in digital consumer devices such as PDAs, digital cameras and MP3 players. Due to its anti-shock/anti-vibration properties, better environmental toler- ance, low power consumption, small form factor, and high reliabil- ity characteristics, it has been widely accepted in mission critical embedded applications.
Windows Driver Installation The following sections show the driver installation procedures for Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows Server 2003. When installing the Windows drivers, we recommend the following steps: 1. Fully install the Windows properly before installing any driver. Most of the standard I/O devices’ driver will be installed during the standard Windows installation.
4.1 Chipset Drivers Installation 1. Ensure your Windows operating system is fully installed and running prior to executing the “Intel Chipset Soft- ware Installation Utility”. 2. Close any running applications. 3. The files are stored in an integrated application setup program.
4.3 LAN Driver Installation 1. Boot Windows 2000/XP/Windows Server 2003. 2. Run the pro2kxp.exe under the following directory: X:\cPCI\cPCI-6842\LAN. 3. Read the license agreement. Click 'I accept the terms in the license agreement’ if you agree to continue. 4. At the Location to Save Files prompt, click Next to save the files in the specified folder.
Figure 5-1: cPCI-6842 Watchdog Timer Architecture The CPCI-6842 Series custom watchdog timer circuit is imple- mented using the Winbond W83627HF. It contains three Registers (CRF5, CRF6 and CRF7 of logical device 8) for controlling the watchdog timer and retrieving its status.
Once the watchdog has timed out, it will cause a RESET signal to be sent to the system. 5.2 Using the Watchdog in an Application The following section is provided to assist you in learning how to use the watchdog in an application. The watchdog’s Reset func- tion is as explained above.
5.3 Intel Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) The cPCI-6842 series supports Intel® Preboot Execution Environ- ment (PXE), which provides the capability to boot up or execute an OS installation through an Ethernet connection. There should be a DHCP server in the network with one or more servers running PXE and MTFTP services.
Appendix Serial Console User’s Guide 1. Introduction Most industrial implementations do not use a monitor or a key- board to interface between the user and the computer, instead connecting through a network or direct cable. ADLINK provides a function for users to obtain Power-On Self Test (POST) messages and execute commands using serial-port access.
Figure 6-1: Null Modem Connection 3. Seting up the Server The server used in this guide is a CPU board where the Award Preboot Agent is integrated into the BIOS. Use the BIOS setup utility to setup the Serial Console. When you turn on the computer, the Award BIOS is immediately activated.
Agent Connect Via This field is un-selectable. Only one connection mode is sup- ported: NULL. NULL means the connection cable is of null modem type. Agent wait time (min) This option selects the amount of time (in minutes) to wait for a successful connection.
