All configured parameters are stored in a flash chip to save the setup information whenever the power is turned off. This chapter provides users with detailed description about how to set up basic system configuration through the AMI BIOS setup utility. 6.1 Starting To enter the setup screens, follow the steps below: 1. 2. Turn on the computer and press the <Del> key immediately. After you press the <Del> key, the main BIOS setup menu displays. You can access the other setup screens from the main BIOS setup menu, such as the Advanced and Chipset menus. If your computer cannot boot after making and saving system changes with BIOS setup, you can restore BIOS optimal defaults by setting JP7 (see section 2.4.7). Note It is strongly recommended that you should avoid changing the chipset’s defaults. Both AMI and your system manufacturer have carefully set up these defaults that provide the best performance and reliability. 6.2 Navigation Keys The BIOS setup/utility uses a key-based navigation system called hot keys. Most of the BIOS setup utility hot keys can be used at any time during the setup navigation process. These keys include <F1>, <F2>, <Enter>, <ESC>, <Arrow> keys, and so on. Some of the navigation keys differ from one screen to another .

During the late of BIOS POST, you can press <Shift + F10> to launch this agent as Figure 2(a). You need to supply a valid login username and password pair for authentication. The default account name is Administrator with the corresponding password Axiomtek as Figure 2(b). After successful authentication, you can change the network settings along with the account information. Figure 3 shows the screen shoot of the agent. Please press <F4> to save the changes whenever you want to modify settings and reboot.

Without these settings, firmware cannot perform remote control operations and PLDM transfers through SMBus. Figure 4(a): Advanced Tab within BIOS DASH User Guide 83 PICO121 AMD G-Series Embedded SoC Pico-ITX Board Figure 4(b): DASH Setting After pressing Console Redirection Settings, please follow the settings shown in Figure 5 for best performance and compatibility. Figure 5: Console Redirection Settings for AMI BIOS 84 DASH User Guide PICO121 AMD G-Series Embedded SoC Pico-ITX Board 8.1.2 Software Installation ® After setting BIOS as section 8.1.1 shown and installing OS, such as Windows 7 or ® Windows 8, when you install Ethernet driver, please check DashClient (see section 7.2). Then it turns the device into a DASH enabled computer on the client side. You can use a console device with Realtek Management Console installed to control and monitor a remote DASH enabled computer (see section 8.2.1). 8.2 Console Side 8.2.1 Management Console Tool ® ® Please install Realtek Management Console under Windows Vista or Windows with ® ® version above Vista, such as Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008. Discovery You can use Discovery page to find computers capable of ASF or DASH. In the discovery phase, you can find ASF or DASH manageable computers by giving a range of IP addresses along with port lists and protocols specified. When computers are found, they would be shown in the window. By double clicking the found IP, a Manageability page would appear. Figure 6 shows the results when finding a range of computers from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.255. In addition to the current found devices, computers ever discovered are also listed in the left pane of the window. Figure 6: Discover Manageable Devices DASH User Guide 85 PICO121 AMD G-Series Embedded SoC Pico-ITX Board Manageability In Manageability page, you can manually set the IP address and the port number associated with a specific DASH enabled computer. Another alternative is to use the found IP address and port number, which would be automatically filled into corresponding fields whenever you have completed the discovery phase. Please use Administrator as user name and Axiomtek as password to login. After successful login, a new pop-out window with all supported profiles would appear, such as shown in Figure 7. Figure 7: Registered Profiles 86 DASH User Guide PICO121 AMD G-Series Embedded SoC Pico-ITX Board Remote Control In the Remote Control node within Manageability page, you can power on, power off, power reset, or power recycle the DASH capable computer. You can use the check box to specify the boot device during next booting. Currently this feature is based on PLDM for BIOS Control and Configuration Specification and the system needs at least a one-time boot before you could get attached bootable devices. Figure 8 shows the snap shot of this feature. Figure 8: Remote Control and Boot Device Order Change Console Redirection The DASH on PICO121 supports two redirection services, text console redirection and USB redirection services. These two features can be found in the Console Redirection tab, such as shown in Figure 9. For USB redirection, users can redirect a pre-created image, CD-ROM drive, USB dongle and floppy from a remote console as if the device is plugged within the client computer. You can use the check box to choose an image file (Using image file) or a physical drive (Using true device) for redirection. By pressing the “…” button, you must specify the file name or the drive letter used for redirection before starting redirection service. Besides, except for CD-ROM drive redirection, USB redirection also implements write operations, which means you can write data from the client side back to the console side. Moreover, you can check the Using URL and provide a valid URL to do the same thing. However, you need to setup a web server and put the USB image in that server before enabling the USB redirection service. Only read operations are supported. If write operations are needed, please consider using image file or true device. Text console redirection has the ability to directly enter BIOS setup or pop out a BBS screen without user’s pressing any key during the booting time. This can reduce the effort for users when they want to enter BIOS setup or just temporary change boot device. Whenever a new option is chosen (Normal Boot, Enter BIOS Setup, and Enter BBS Popout), you should press the Stop TCR button first and then press the Start TCR button to get it work correctly. DASH User Guide 87 PICO121 AMD G-Series Embedded SoC Pico-ITX Board After Start TCR button is pressed, the remote control function would also be invoked, according to the selected check box in the After Rebooting field. This means that you can do text console redirection right now without doing any remote operation, or do it the next time when the computer boots. Both TELNET and SSH protocols are supported. You can choose to use either of them according to your need. Figure 9: Redirection Services 88 DASH User Guide PICO121 AMD G-Series Embedded SoC Pico-ITX Board Firmware Update This console tool can be used to do a remote DASH firmware update regardless of the power state. This means that even in the S5 state (without any operating system), we can do a firmware update process. Click “…” to browse a new firmware file, and then click Start Update to begin the firmware update process, such as shown in Figure 10. Figure 10: Firmware Update DASH User Guide 89 PICO121 AMD G-Series Embedded SoC Pico-ITX Board 8.2.2 Built-in Web Server It also has a built-in web server with HTTP and HTTPS (TLS). The default port for HTTP is 623 while that for HTTPS is 664. You can login the web server to perform some simple management functions, such as basic hardware information query, remote control, event log browsing and network settings.

Some embedded systems are not watched by human for 24 hours. It is usually too slow to wait for someone to reboot when computer hangs. The systems need to be able to reset automatically when things go wrong. The watchdog timer gives us solution. The watchdog timer is a counter that triggers a system reset when it counts down to zero from a preset value. The software starts counter with an initial value and must reset it periodically. If the counter ever reaches zero which means the software has crashed, the system will reboot. B.2 How to Use Watchdog Timer The I/O port base addresses of watchdog timer are 2E (hex) and 2F (hex). The 2E (hex) and 2F (hex) are address and data port respectively. Assume that program A is put in a loop that must execute at least once every 10ms. Initialize watchdog timer with a value bigger than 10ms. If the software has no problems; watchdog timer will never expire because software will always restart the counter before it reaches zero.
