2-3. HOW TO SET THE JUMPERS
You can configure your board by setting the jumpers. Jumper is consists of
two or three metal pins with a plastic base mounted on the card, and by using
a small plastic "cap", Also known as the jumper cap (with a metal contact
inside), you are able to connect the pins. So you can set-up your hardware
configuration by "opening" or "closing" pins.
The jumper can be combined into sets that called jumper blocks. When the
jumpers are all in the block, you have to put them together to set up the
hardware configuration. The figure below shows how this looks like.
JUMPERS AND CAPS
If a jumper has three pins (for example, labelled PIN1, PIN2, and PIN3), You
can connect PIN1 & PIN2 to create one setting and shorting. You can either
connect PIN2 & PIN3 to create another setting. The same jumper diagrams are
applied all through this manual. The figure below shows what the manual
diagram looks like and what they represent.

Award BIOS Setup
4-1. INTRODUCTION
This chapter will show you the function of the BIOS in managing the
features of your system. The EB-381LF 3.5” Embedded Board is equipped
with the BIOS for system chipset from Award Software Inc. This page
briefly explains the function of the BIOS in managing the special features of
your system. The following pages describe how to use the BIOS for system
chipset Setup menu.
Your application programs (such as word processing, spreadsheets, and
games) rely on an operating system such as DOS or OS/2 to manage such
things as keyboard, monitor, disk drives, and memory.
The operating system relies on the BIOS (Basic Input and Output system), a
program stored on a ROM (Read-only Memory) chip, to initialize and
configure your computer's hardware. As the interface between the hardware
and the operating system, the BIOS enables you to make basic changes to
your system's hardware without having to write a new operating system.
The following diagram illustrates the interlocking relationships between the
system hardware, BIOS, operating system, and application program:

IDE Primary Master / Slave:
IDE Secondary Master / Slave:
The BIOS can automatically detect the specifications and optimal operating
mode of almost all IDE hard drives. When you select type AUTO for a hard
drive, the BIOS detect its specifications during POST, every time system
boots.
If you do not want to select drive type AUTO, other methods of selecting
drive type are available:

preprogrammed values for hard drive types 1 through 45.
2.
Select USER and enter values into each drive parameter field.
3.
Use the IDE HDD AUTO DETECTION function in Setup.
Here is a brief explanation of drive specifications:
Type: The BIOS contains a table of pre-defined drive types. Each
defined drive type has a specified number of cylinders, number of heads,
write precompensation factor, landing zone, and number of sectors.
Drives whose specifications do not accommodate any predefine type are
classified as type USER.
•
Size: Disk drive capacity (approximate). Note that this size is usually
greater than the size of a formatted disk given by a disk-checking
program.
•
Cyls: number of cylinders.
•
Head: number of heads.
•
Precomp: write precompensation cylinders.
•
Landz: landing zone.
•
Sector: number of sectors.
•
Mode: Auto, Normal, Large or LBA.
Auto: The BIOS automatically determines the optimal mode.
ƒ
Normal: Maximum number of cylinders, heads, sectors
supported are 1024, 16 and 63.
ƒ
Large: For drives that do not support LBA and have more
than 1024 cylinders.
EB-381LF USER′S MANUAL

The parameter allows you to configure the system based on the specific
features of the installed chipset. The chipset manages bus speed and
access to system memory resources, such as DRAM and the external cache.
It also coordinates communications between conventional ISA bus and the
PCI bus. It must be stated that these items should never need to be altered.
The default settings have been chosen because they provide the best operating conditions for the system. The only time you might consider making
any changes would be if you discovered that data was being lost while
using your system.
