# 3 Getting Started

This chapter provides information on how to install required components for the NuPRO-720 SBC. The installation of memory modules, CompactFlash cards, operating system and drivers are explained.

# 3.1 Memory Module Installation

The NuPRO-720 supports up to 2 GB of DDR 400/333 MHz memory modules via two DDR DIMM sockets. Each DDR module has a 184-pin footprint. The DDR modules are notched to facilitate correct installation on the DIMM sockets.

# Memory Configuration Options

The NuPRO-720 allows you to install 256 MB, 512 MB and 1GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR DIMMs into the DIMM sockets following these configuration options:

It is recommended that you install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For maximum compatibility, install memory modules with the same brand, model, and/or rating.

To install a memory module:

1. Locate the DIMM slots on the motherboard (DIMM1 and DIMM2).
2. Press the socket's retaining clips outward to unlock.

3. Align the memory module on the socket making sure that the notch matches the break on the socket.

![Notch\n512 MB\n0087.533\nBreak](.nupro-720-50-13059-1010-210/c3faaf64324c9dc00c452bb7a18d39f43690a8395302606d16b911d20be02252.jpg)

4. Insert the module firmly into the slot until the retaining clips snap back inwards and the module is securely seated.

# 3.2 CompactFlash Card Installation

The NuPRO-720 supports standard CompactFlash memory cards via the CN2 CompactFlash type II socket.

To install a CompactFlash card:

1. Locate the CN2 connector - CompactFlash type II socket slot on the NuPRO-720.

# 3.3 Operating System Installation

The NuPRO-720 supports Microsoft Windows XP. In order for the system to recognize the IDE and SATA devices supported by the VIA VT6421L Controller, the SATA controller driver must be installed immediately after booting from the Windows Setup CD.

![The image displays a white document icon with a folded top-left corner and faint horizontal lines. A large red checkmark is superimposed over the document.](.nupro-720-50-13059-1010-210/7de33262f882e22522aea89539964f115109f72741ac1c027b4510b066efeea6.jpg)
NOTE:

If the SATA controller driver is not installed at the beginning of the Windows XP installation procedure, the system will not recognize any IDE or SATA storage devices.

# SATA Controller Driver

Follow these instructions to install SATA controller driver.

1. Copy the SATA controller driver files from the following location on the ADLINK All-in-One CD to a floppy disc: X:\NuPRO\NuPRO-720\SATA\Driver.

# 4 Watch Dog Timer

NuPRO-720 implements a watch dog timer (WDT) embedded in the LPC based Winbond 83627HG Super I/O controller.

The Watchdog timer consists of a one-second/minute resolution counter (CRF6 on logical device 8 of 83627HG) and two watch dog control registers (CRF5 and CRF7 on logical device 8). Once a value is set in the WDT, the timer begins to count down.

Any movement in the keyboard, mouse, or software reset of the value will cause a reload of the timer value. The Watchdog output is connected to "reset". If the system hangs without a software re-trigger, the system will be reset.

The watch dog timer has a one second granularity up to 255 seconds or a one minute granularity up to 255 minutes. The keyboard and mouse will only reset the WDT if Bit 7 and 6 of CRF7 is set; that is values greater than C0h or 192 decimal.

To configure the registers and set up the watch dog timer, the following sequence should be followed:

▶ Write 87h to location 2Eh twice to enter extended function mode
▶ Configure the registers to set up the WDT
▶ Write 0AAh to location 2Eh to exit the extended function mode

The example shown below resets the system after 15 seconds. Both keyboard and mouse interrupts will reload the WDT from CRF6.

```asm

;
; Enter extended function mode, interrupt double-write

The section below the setup items of the main menu displays the control keys for this menu. Another section at the bottom of the main menu just below the control keys section displays information on the currently highlighted item in the list.

The BIOS also supports storing the CMOS settings into non-volatile ROM by using the F6 or F7 keys.

![This image features a graphic icon of a white document with a folded upper-right corner. The document has horizontal grey lines near the bottom. A large red checkmark is centered over the paper.](.nupro-720-50-13059-1010-210/3e1be5d1267992c561b1c9b20510a2f28b811af2f561e24badce9fc86afd0a31.jpg)
NOTE:

After making and saving system changes with setup, you may find that your computer does not normally boot, the BIOS supports an override to the CMOS settings that resets your system to its Default values if a critical error occurs.

We strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to chipset Defaults. These Defaults have been carefully chosen by both the BIOS vendor and your system manufacturer to provide absolute maximum performance and reliability.

# OnChip IDE Channel 1

The integrated peripheral controller contains an IDE interface with support for one IDE channel.

# Master/Slave Drive PIO Mode

The four IDE PIO (Programmed Input/Output) fields allow users to set a PIO mode (0 to 4) for each of the four IDE devices that the onboard IDE interface supports. Modes 0 through 4 provide successively increased performance. In Auto mode, the system automatically determines the best mode for each device. Options: Auto, Mode 0, Mode 1, Mode 2, Mode 3, and Mode 4.

# IDE Primary & Secondary Master/Slave UDMA

Ultra DMA implementation is possible only if your IDE hard drive supports it and the operating environment includes a DMA driver. If your hard drive and your system software both support Ultra DMA, select Auto to enable BIOS support.

# IDE DMA Transfer Access

Enables/Disables IDE DMA Transfer Access

# IDE HDD Block Mode

Enhances disk performance by allowing multi-sector data transfers and eliminates the interrupt handling time for each sector.

# Onboard Serial Port 1/2

Selects the address and interrupt for serial ports.

# UART Mode Select

Selects the IR (Infra-Red) mode. The onboard serial port 2 offers IrDA and ASKIR modes. Use this menu to select the mode supported by your external IR device.

![The image features a white document icon with a folded upper-left corner. Faint horizontal lines appear across the lower section of the paper.

NOTE:

Choosing the wrong IR mode will prevent your computer from communicating with an external IR device.

# Onboard Parallel Port/FDD

Assigns resources to LPT1 or an FDD drive. LPT1 and FDD share the same pins on the X3 connector and only one may be used at a time.

# EPP Mode Select

Selects the version of EPP transfer protocol that the parallel port should use. Users may choose the EPP 1.7 or EPP 1.9 version. Generally, EPP 1.9 is the preferred setting because it supports newer EPP 1.9 devices and most EPP 1.7 devices, while offering other advantages such as support for longer cables. However, certain EPP 1.7 devices can not work properly with an EPP 1.9 port. EPP 1.9 is recommended for general use, however, if there are problems connecting to parallel port devices, switch to EPP 1.7

# ECP Mode Use DMA

Determines which DMA channel the parallel port should use when it is in ECP mode. The ECP mode uses the DMA protocol to achieve data transfer rates of up to 2.5 Mbits/s and provides symmetric bidirectional communications.

# 6 POST Messages

If your system BIOS detects an error during the Power On Self-Test (POST), it will prompt the user by either sounding a beep code or displaying a message. If a message is displayed, it will be accompanied by:

PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, OR DEL TO ENTER SETUP

# 6.1 POST Beep

Currently there are two kinds of beep codes in BIOS:

This first beep code indicates that a video error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video screen to display any additional information. This beep code consists of a single long beep followed by two short beeps.
▶ The second beep code indicates that a DRAM error has occurred. This beep code consists of a repeated single long beep.

# 6.2 Error Messages

One or more of the following messages may be displayed if the BIOS detects an error during POST.

# CMOS CHECKSUM ERROR - DEFAULTS LOADED

Checksum of CMOS is incorrect. This may indicate that CMOS has become corrupt. This error may have been caused by a weak battery. Check the battery and replace if necessary.

# DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER

No boot device was found. This could mean that either a boot drive was not detected or the drive does not contain proper system boot files. Insert a system disk into Drive A: and press &lt;Enter&gt;. If you assumed the system would boot from the hard drive, make sure the controller is inserted correctly and all cables are properly attached. Also be sure the disk is formatted as a boot device. Reboot the system.

# DISKETTE DRIVES OR TYPES MISMATCH ERROR - RUN SETUP

Type of diskette drive installed in the system is different from the CMOS definition. Run Setup to re-configure the drive type correctly.

# DISPLAY SWITCH IS SET INCORRECTLY

Display switch on the motherboard can be set to either monochrome or color. This indicates the switch; is set to a different setting than indicated in Setup. Determine which setting is correct, then either turn off the system and change the jumper, or enter Setup and change the VIDEO selection.

# FLOPPY DISK CNTRLR ERROR OR NO CNTRLR PRESENT

Cannot find or initialize the floppy drive controller. Make sure the controller is installed correctly and firmly. If there are no floppy drives installed, be sure the Diskette Drive selection in Setup is set to NONE.

# KEYBOARD ERROR OR NO KEYBOARD PRESENT

Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure the keyboard is attached correctly and no keys are being pressed during the boot. If you are purposely configuring the system without a keyboard, set the error halt condition in Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT KEYBOARD. This will cause the BIOS to ignore the missing keyboard and continue the boot.

# OFFENDING ADDRESS NOT FOUND

This message is used in conjunction with the I/O CHANNEL CHECK and RAM PARITY ERROR messages when the segment that has caused the problem cannot be isolated.

# OFFENDING SEGMENT

This message is used in conjunction with the I/O CHANNEL CHECK and RAM PARITY ERROR messages when the segment that has caused the problem has been isolated.

# PRESS A KEY TO REBOOT

This will be displayed at the bottom screen when an error occurs that requires you to reboot. Press any key and the system will reboot.

# PRESS F1 TO DISABLE NMI, F2 TO REBOOT

When BIOS detects a Non-Maskable Interrupt condition during boot, you can choose to disable the NMI and continue to boot, or you can reboot the system with NMI enabled.

# RAM PARITY ERROR - CHECKING FOR SEGMENT

Indicates a parity error in Random Access Memory.

# SYSTEM HALTED, (CTRL-ALT-DEL) TO REBOOT

Indicates the present boot attempt has been aborted and the system must be rebooted. Press and hold down the CTRL and ALT keys and press DEL.

# MEMORY TEST FAIL

BIOS reports the memory test as failed if the onboard memory test results in an error.

# 6.3 POST Codes
