SBC-GX1 Technical Manual Getting started with your SBC-GX1

you have checked that the link settings on the card for I/O address, IRQ and DMA

settings do not conflict with any devices on the SBC-GX1.

If you are using a PC/104 card that requires +5V, this is automatically supplied via the

PC/104 header. If you require +12V this is only available if the +12V pin on the power

connector PL12 has been connected to a supply. If you require –12V or –5V these must

be supplied directly to the PC/104 board.

Using the USB ports

The Universal Serial Bus (USB) controller is disabled by default. To enable this feature

you use the

Chipset features setup option within the Setup utility - see page 34 for

details. Once this device has been enabled, the PCI Plug and Play BIOS sets up the

control registers and the device is available for use. The standard USB connector is a 4-

way socket, which provides power and data signals to the USB peripheral. The 10-way

header (PL8) has been designed to be compatible with PC expansion brackets that

support two USB sockets (See the

USB interface section on page 75 and Appendix B –

Connector details

for further details.)

The USB device should be supplied with a driver that must be installed to enable the

device to be used. (Refer to the documentation supplied with the device.) Most USB

peripherals are only supplied with drivers for Windows 98/2000/XP operating systems. If

you are not using one of these operating systems then you will need to investigate the

availability of drivers.

Using the Ethernet interface

National Semiconductor’s DP83815 Ethernet controller is configured by the Award Plug

and Play BIOS during the POST process. Drivers for various operating systems are

supplied on the support CD. The appropriate driver must be loaded before the Ethernet

interface can be used.

Connection is made via the 8 way RJ45 connector PL5. A second connector PL3

provides outputs that can be used to control LED's for 10M, 100M and LINK status. See

Appendix B – Connector details for pin assignments for this connector.
