WATCHDOG TIMER
The Watchdog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone systems can recover from
catastrophic conditions that cause the CPU to crash. This condition can occur from ex-
ternal EMI or a software bug. When the CPU stops working correctly, hardware on the
board will either perform a hardware reset (cold boot) or a Non-Maskable Interrupt
(NMI) to bring the system back to a known state.
Two I/O ports control the Watchdog Timer:
443 (hex)
043 (hex)
Read
Read
Enable to refresh the Watchdog Timer
Disable the Watchdog Timer
To enable the Watchdog Timer, a read from I/O port 443H must be performed. This
will enable and activate the countdown timer which will eventually timeout and
either reset the CPU or cause a NMI, depending on the setting of JP5. To ensure
that this reset condition does not occur, the Watchdog Timer must periodically be
refreshed by reading the same I/O port 433H. This must be done within the time-
out period that is selected by JP12.
A tolerance of at least 20% must be maintained to avoid unknown routines
within the operating system (DOS), such as disk I/O that can be very time consum-
ing. Therefore, if the timeout period has been set to 10 seconds, the I/O port
443H must be read within 7 seconds.
Note: When exiting a program, it is necessary to disable the Watchdog Timer, otherwise
the system will reset.
E2KEY™ FUNCTION
The SBC-370 provides an E2KEY™ function for system integrators. Based on the E2KEY
utility, you can freely store the ID Code, Password, or Critical Data in the 1Kbit
EEPROM. Because the EEPROM is nonvolatile memory, you don't have to worry about
losing important data.
The E2KEY utility is based on a 1Kbit EEPROM which is configured to 64 words
(from 0 to 63). You can access (read or write) each word at any time.
The E2KEY utility is provided on a CD-ROM with your system. The software utility
will include four files as files:
• README.DOC
• E2KEY.OBJ
• EKEYDEMO.C
• EKEYDEMO.EXE

Features

The E2KEY.OBJ provides two library functions for you to integrate your application
with the E2KEY function. The read_e2key and write_e2key libraries are written and
compiled in C language. To implement them, refer to the functions below:
*/unsigned int read_e2key(unsigned int address): This function will return the
E2KEY data to a certain address. The address range is from 0 to 63. Return data is
one word, 16 bits.
*/void write_e2key(unsigned int address, unsigned data): This function will write
the given data to E2Key to a certain address. The address is from 0 to 63. The data
value is from 0 to 0xffff.
To begin using this function, refer to the included EKEYDEMO.C code.
Note: The E2KEY function is based on the parallel port. Therefore, you should enable
SBC-370's parallel port or it will not work.
CONNECTING TO AN ATX POWER SUPPLY
To Connect ATX Power Supply to the Backplanes and/or the ISBC Card
1. Disconnect the AC cord from the power supply to prevent sudden electric surge.
2. Connect the ATX power supply switch to the pin 17 (power button) and pin 19
(+5VSB) of CN7 (multi panel) on the board.
Figure 1. SBC-370
(through Power
Button and +5VSB).
• To turn off the power supply, push the ATX power switch button for about four seconds.
• To turn the system on, push the button once.

Watchdog Timer Type Setting (JP5)
The Watchdog Timer is enabled by reading port 443H. It should be triggered be-
fore the timeout period ends; otherwise, it will assume the program operation is
abnormal and will issue a reset signal to reboot or activate NMI to CPU. The
Watchdog Timer is disabled by reading port 043H.

3 AMI BIOS Setup Menus
The SBC-370 uses the AMI PCI/ISA BIOS for system configuration. The AMI BIOS
setup program is designed to provide maximum flexibility in configuring the sys-
tem by offering various options for end user requirements. This section is pro-
vided to assist you in the proper usage of these features.
GETTING STARTED
When you turn the system on, the BIOS will enter the Power-On-Self-Test routines.
These routines will be executed for system test and initialization and system con-
figuration verification.
Hit DEL if you want to run SETUP
To access AMI PCI/ISA BIOS Setup program, press the Del key. The following screen
will be displayed at this time.
STANDARD CMOS SETUP

function is for Date/Time setting and Floppy/Hard Disk setting. Refer to the following
screen.
Date/Time: Use the left arrow, right arrow, and Enter keys to move from one field to the
next. The numeric keys, 0-9, are used to change the field values. To set the date
(MM:DD:YYYY), select one of the fields (Month, Day, or Year) and then press either
PgUp or PgDn to set it to the current Month, Day, and Year. Follow the same procedure
for setting the Time (HH/MM/SS). The hour is calculated according to a 24-hour mili-
tary clock, i.e., 00:00:00 through 23:59:59.
Note: It is not necessary to enter the seconds or type zeros in front of numbers.
IDE hard disk drive setup: Use one of the following setup procedures:
• Use the Auto setting for detection during boot-up.
• Use the Auto-Detect Hard Disk option in the main menu; the computer will
automatically detect the HDD specifications.
• Manually enter the specifications from the User option.

of the system memory, providing a quick boot when you turn on your computer. With
the Quick Boot Disabled, the BIOS will test all system memory when it boots up. It will
spend about 40 seconds until it receives a Ready signal from the HDD. It will also wait
for you to press the Del key.
1st, 2nd, 3rd Boot Device >: This is used to define the sequence of boot drives after the rou-
tine check up completes. If the 1st Boot Device fails, the BIOS will attempt to boot from
the 2nd or 3rd device. The Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings are C:, A:, CDROM.
Try Other Boot Devices >: The BIOS will try to boot from any other available device in the
system if the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd device fails to boot.
