3.3.1 Chipset Component Driver The chipset used on WADE-8041 is relatively new which operating systems might not be able to recognize. To overcome this compatibility issue, for Windows Operating Systems such as Windows-2000/XP, please install its INF before any of other Drivers are installed.
Windows-2000, Windows XP and Linux. 3.3.3 Ethernet Controller Drivers Support Please find Realtek 8100C LAN driver in /Ethernet directory of WADE-8041 CD-title. The drivers support Windows-2000 and Windows-XP. LED Indicator (for LAN status) WADE-8041 provides two LED indicators to report Realtek 8100C Ethernet interface status.
WADE-8041 allows users control WDT through dynamic software programming. The WDT starts counting when it is activated. It sends out a signal to system reset or to non-maskable interrupt (NMI), when time-out interval ends.

; Ex: timer=5 minutes; 00 = Watch dog timer time out disabled GPIO The WADE-8041 provides 8 programmable input or output ports that can be individually configured to perform a simple basic I/O function. Users can configure each individual port to become an input or output port by programming register bit of I/O Selection.
3.6.2 WADE-8041 GPIO Programming Guide There are 8 GPIO pins on WADE-8041. These GPIO pins are from SUPER I/O (W83627GH-AW) GPIO pins, and can be programmed as Input or Output direction. J22 pin header is for 8 GPIO pins and its pin assignment as following : J22_Pin1=GPIO4:from SUPER I/O_GPIO10 with Ext.
System Installation How to access W83627HG CR? In WADE-8041, the EFER = 002Eh, and EFDR = 002Fh. EFER and EFDR are 2 IO ports needed to access W83627HG-AW CR. EFER is the Index Port, EFDR is the Data Port. CR index number needs to be written into EFER first, Then the data will be read/written from/to EFDR.
