Safety Instructions
Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static electricity. To
avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the following
precautions:
Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging
until you are ready to install them.
Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of
the system unit chassis for a few seconds. This helps to discharge any static
electricity on your body.
Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component
stores, when handling boards and components. Fasten the ALLIGATOR clip
of the strap to the end of the shielded wire lead from a grounded object.
Please wear and connect the strap before handle the HS-2608 to ensure
harmlessly discharge any static electricity through the strap.
Please use an anti-static pad when putting down any components or parts or
tools outside the computer. You may also use an anti-static bag instead of
the pad. Please inquire from your local supplier for additional assistance in
finding the necessary anti-static gadgets.
NOTE:
DO NOT TOUCH THE BOARD OR ANY OTHER SENSITIVE
COMPONENTS WITHOUT ALL NECESSARY ANTI-STATIC
PROTECTIONS.

3.19 Watchdog Timer
There are three access cycles of Watch-Dog Timer as Enable, Refresh
and Disable. The Enable cycle proceeds via READ PORT 443H
whereas the Disable cycle proceeds via READ PORT 045H. A
continued Enable cycle after a first Enable cycle means Refresh.
Once the Enable cycle is active, a Refresh cycle is requested before
the time-out period. This restarts counting of the WDT period. When
the time counting goes over the preset period of WDT, it will assume
that the program operation is abnormal. A System Reset signal to
re-start or a NMI cycle to the CPU transpires when such error happens.
Jumper JP1 is used to select the function of Watchdog Timer.

The Watchdog Timer is disabled after the system Power-On. It can be
enabled via an Enable cycle and reading the control port (443H), or via
a Refresh cycle and reading the control port (443H), or via a Disable
cycle and reading the disable control port (045H).
After an Enable cycle of WDT, user must immediately execute a
Refresh cycle to WDT before its period setting comes to an end every
1, 2, 10, 20, 110 or 220 seconds. If the Refresh cycle does not activate
before WDT period cycle, the onboard WDT architecture will issue a
Reset or NMI cycle to the system. There are three I/O ports that control
the Watchdog Timer.

Chapter 4
Award BIOS Setup
The HS-2608 uses Award BIOS for the system configuration. The
Award BIOS setup program is designed to provide the maximum
flexibility in configuring the system by offering various options that
could be selected for end-user requirements. This chapter is written to
assist you in the proper usage of these features.
4.1
Starting Setup
The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the
computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained in the
CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and
configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system
on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the
operating system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one
of two ways:
1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or
2. By pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears
briefly at the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self
Test).
Press DEL to enter SETUP.
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to
enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or
pressing the "RESET" button on the system case. You may also restart
by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Delete> keys. If you do
not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an
error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to...
PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, DEL TO ENTER SETUP
31
4.2
Using Setup
In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter> to
select, use the <PageUp> and <PageDown> keys to change entries,
press <F1> for help and press <Esc> to quit. The following table
provides more detail about how to navigate the Setup program using
the keyboard.

Advanced Chipset Features
This section allows you to configure the system based on the specific
features of the installed chipset. This chipset manages bus speeds and
the access to the system memory resources, such as DRAM and the
external cache. It also coordinates the communications between the
conventional ISA and PCI buses. It must be stated that these items
should never be altered. The default settings have been chosen
because they provide the best operating conditions for your system.
You might consider making any changes only if you discover that the
data has been lost while using your system.

Integrated Peripherals
The IDE hard drive controllers can support up to two separate hard
drives. These drives have a master/slave relationship that is
determined by the cabling configuration used to attach them to the
controller. Your system supports two IDE controllers--a primary
and a secondary--so you can install up to four separate hard disks.
PIO means Programmed Input/Output. Rather than having the
BIOS issue a series of commands to affect the transfer to or from
the disk drive, PIO allows the BIOS to tell the controller what it
wants and then let the controller and the CPU perform the
complete task by themselves. This is much simpler and more
efficient (also faster).

PnP/PCI Configurations
This section describes the configuration of the PCI bus system. PCI, or
Peripheral Components Interconnect, is a system that allows I/O
devices to operate at speeds nearing the speed the CPU itself uses
when communicating with its own special components. This section
covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that
only experienced users should make any changes to the default
settings.

You can set either supervisor or user password, or both of them. The
differences between are:
supervisor password: can enter and change the options of the setup
menus.
user password: just can only enter but do not have the right to change the
options of the setup menus.
When you select this function, the following message will appear at the
center of the screen to assist you in creating a password.
ENTER PASSWORD:
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press
<Enter>. The password typed now will clear any previously entered
password from CMOS memory. You will be asked to confirm the
password. Type the password again and press <Enter>. You may also
press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password.
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to
enter the password. A message is confirmed and the password will be
disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you
can enter Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it
every time you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized
person from changing any part of your system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the
BIOS to request a password every time your system is rebooted. This
would prevent unauthorized use of your computer.
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS
Features Setup Menu and its Security option (see Section 3). If the
Security option is set to “System”, the password will be required both at
boot and at entry to Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs
when trying to enter Setup.

4.15 Save & Exit Setup
Press <Enter> on this item for confirmation:
Pressing “Y” stores the selections made in the menus in CMOS – a
special section of memory that stays on after you turn your system off.
The next time you boot your computer, the BIOS configures your
system according to the Setup selections stored in CMOS. After saving
the values the system is restarted again.
