Chapter 1. Introduction
ROCKY-512 is designed for limited space applications with only the
half size. It supports the full functions of an AT& ATX-compatible
industrial computer on a single board. So it provides wake on LAN
and Modem. The ROCKY-512 is equipped with a low-power
consumption and high performance GXLV/GX1 processor on board.
It also contains an SDRAM DIMM socket that can support up to 256
MB memory.
The ROCKY-512 provides an Ethernet interface, Compact Flash Type
II, EIDE interface, one parallel port, Two RS-232 serial ports, and a
PS/2 keyboard/mouse interface. The built-in SVGA CRT only. CRT
resolutions supports up to 1280 x 1024 @ 256 colors &1024x 768 @
16 bpp. The Flash ROM contains both the system BIOS and the VGA
BIOS. Reprogramming the Flash ROM could do modification, in
case of necessary.

2.2 Unpacking Precautions
Some components of ROCKY-512 SBC are very sensitive to static
electric charges and can be damaged by a sudden rush of power. To
protect it from unintended damage, be sure to note these following
precautions:
zGround yourself to remove any static charge before touching
the ROCKY-512 SBC. You can do it by using a grounded wrist
strap at all times or by frequently touching any conducting
materials that is connected to the ground.
zHandle your ROCKY-512 SBC by its edges. Don’t touch IC chips,
leads or circuitry if not necessary.
zDo not plug any connector or jumper while the power is on.
zOn board 64/128MB SDRAM and there is one 168-pin DIMM
socket to accept 3.3V non-buffered SDRAM. The max. Memory
size is 256MB.
2.3 Watchdog Timer Setting (JP5)
Reading port 443H enables the Watchdog Timer. It should be
triggered before the time-out period ends, otherwise it will assume
the program operation is abnormal and will issue a reset signal to
start again. On the other hand, reading port 043/843H disables the
Watchdog Timer. For detail information about Watch-Dog Timer
please refer to Appendix A.

2.5 COM2 Setting
The COM2 (CN4) can supply +5V or +12V power to the serial
devices via RI pin (Pin 8) of the COM port connector. The max.
support current is 1A with fuse protection between these two
connector’s 5V/12V output. If the output is set to 12V, make sure
that you have 12V to power up the board.

(Optional)
The COM2 (CN4) can be set to RS-232 or RS-422/485 for industrial
field site application. Moreover when this port set to the RS-485
mode, the board equipped self-tuner IC will automatic sense data
direction as to eliminate data collision. This is especially important
in WINDOWS programming environment where you are not allowed
to let the program catch the control pin at your will. As for RS422
and RS485 function, it’s optional and up to user’s decision.

you should short the JP1 (3,5) for about 3 seconds, and then open it
again and this will set system back to normal operation mode.
