The video shadow RAM consists of four 16K pages which can be enabled respectively. The PT-429G is a VESA Local Bus motherboard The three Local Bus slots fully comply with the VESA ( Video Electronics Standards Association ) Master mode specifications. This means I/O data can run as fast as CPU.
SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION FCC approval: The PT-429G motherboard has been approved for FCC Class B when properly installed in a barebones configuration using the following case/power supply: FCC ID Model Brand JPJPINE429G 109 X-109 S/M Procase JPJPlNE429G609 PC-609 T/M Procase...
The Green PC mode is a state that minimizes the power consumption. Through the BIOS setting of the PT-429G can slow down the CPU clock to 8 MHz in Green PC mode. The PT-429G extends the Green PC feature to four external devices (Green AUX #l to # 4) by the AUX Green connector (J7 & JP32). The...

SECTION 4 HARDWARE COMPATIBILITY System Timers The system has three programmable timer/counters controlled by an Intel 8254-2 timer/counter chip. These are channel 0 through 2, defined as follows : Channel 0 System timer Tied on GATE 0 CLKINO 8259A IRQ 0 CLK OUT 0 Channel 1 Refresh Request Generator...
SECTION 4 HARDWARE COMPATIBILITY Each DMA channel is supported by the system. Two Intel 8237-5 DMA controller chips (Four channels in each chtp) are used. DMA channels are assigned as follows : Channels from 0 through 3 are contained in DMA controller 1. Transfers of 8-bit data S-bit I/O adapters and 8-bit or 16-bit system memory are supported by these channels.
SECTION 4 HARDWARE COMF’ATIBILITY 4.4 Real Time Clock and Non-Volatile RAM The real time clock and its 64 bytes of RAM information are backed up by 3.6V rechargeable DC battery (or 6V external battery). The internal clock circuitry uses 14 bytes while the rest is allocated to system configuration.
SECTION 5 About CMOS Setup After mainboard has been integrated into the system, you need to run the Setup Program to set system configuration. Upon finishing the Setup Program is then stored in read-only memory (ROM), and can only be accessed when you turn on or reset the system. The settings you specify with the Setup program are recorded in a special area of memory called CMOS RAM.
SECTION 5 Entering CMOS Setup Select Advanced CMOS Setup to access the Advanced CMOS Setup menu, which is discussed in section 5 The Advanced Chipset Setup to access the Advanced Chipset Setup menu, which is discussed in section 5.7. Select Auto Configuration with BIOS Defaults to load the default system values. You will be prompted for confirmation, and notified that the values have been loaded.
