    SC815E Endura Motherboard Product Manual Configuration The majority of the configuration of the motherboard is done through the Setup utility built into the BIOS – discussed later in this document. There is, however, one jumper that controls the operation of the motherboard as described below. Operating mode Normal Configure...
  • Page 13: Front Panel Connections

    SC815E Endura Motherboard Product Manual 1.4.2 Front Panel Connections The primary controls and indicators for the motherboard are connected via the front panel connector using either a single ribbon cable to a 'front panel' assembly, or using a number of small PC- standard connectors.
  • Page 14: Motherboard Description

    For best performance, use PC133 modules with a 133MHz bus processor. When using a 100MHz bus processor, the module will always operate at 100MHz regardless of type. See the Manuals, Drivers & BIOS section on the RadiSys web site at www.radisys.com for a list of memory modules that have been tested with this product.

  • Page 18: Infra-Red Support

    SC815E Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.9.3 Infra-red Support The SC815E motherboard supports an IrDA compliant infra-red interface via the front panel header. An IR transceiver must be added such as the Hewlett Packard HSDL-3201 or the HSDL-3610 device. The IR port shares the serial port 2 channel and thus the two ports cannot be used simultaneously.

    SC815E Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.12 CMOS RAM & RTC The chipset integrates a Motorola MC146818A compatible real-time clock (RTC) and 256 bytes of CMOS RAM that is used by the BIOS to store configuration information. A replaceable primary lithium coin cell or, optionally, a Super Cap backs up both the RTC and the CMOS RAM. The former provides for approximately 5 years of unpowered backup.
  • Page 20: System Management

    SC815E Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.14 System management The SC815E motherboard includes hardware system management functions integrated into the National Semiconductor PC87366 Super I/O (SIO) device. They monitor system voltages, motherboard and CPU temperatures, fan speed and control system fans. The following sections describe this in more detail.
  • Page 21: Temperature Monitoring

    SC815E Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.14.2 Temperature Monitoring There are two temperature sensors on the motherboard. The first measures the motherboard temperature. Since the sensor is contained within the SIO, this will be a localized reading dominated by the motherboard surface temperature around the SIO component. The second temperature sensor is located on the processor die and thus accurately measures the local die temperature.
  • Page 22: Power Management

    SC815E Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.15 Power management The SC815E motherboard implements a number of power management features with software support for APM and ACPI. Where an operating system does not support ACPI, the motherboard defaults to using APM. An APM driver is required by the operating system in order to take advantage of the APM power management features.
