Chapter 2 Getting Started
This section describes how the hardware installation and system settings should be done.
2.1 Included Hardware
The following hardware is included in your kit:
uPPAP-3720L CommunicationAppliance SystemBoard
uOne serialport Null MODEM cable
uOne LCD Modules.
2.2 Before You Begin
To prevent damage to any system board, it is important to handle it with care. The following
measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from static electricity discharge:
When handling the board, use a grounded wrist strap designed for static discharge elimination
and touches a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic bag. Handle
the board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips, memory modules or
gold contacts.
When handling processor chips or memory modules, avoid touching their pins or gold edge
fingers. Put the value communications appliance system board and peripherals back into the
antistatic bag when they are not in use or not installed in the chassis.
Some circuitry on the system board can continue operating even though the power is switched
off. Under no circumstances should the Lithium coin cell used to power the real-time clock be
allowed to be shorted. The coin cell can heat under these conditions and present a burn hazard.
WARNING!
1. "CAUTION: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED.
REPLACE ONLY WITH SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE RECOMMENDED BY THE
MANUFACTURER. DISCARD USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE
MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS"
2. This guide is for technically qualified personnel who have experience installing and
configuring system boards Disconnect the system board power supply from its
power source before you connect/disconnect cables or install/remove any system
board components. Failure to do this can result in personnel injury or equipment
damage.
3. Avoid short-circuiting the lithium battery; this can cause it to superheat and cause
burns if touched.
4. Do not operate the processor without a thermal solution. Damage to the processor
can occur in seconds.
5. Do not block air vents. Minimum 1/2-inch clearance required.

Chapter 3 Operation Guide
3.1Brief Guide of PPAP-3720
PPAP-3720 is a Communication Appliance computing board based on Intel E7500 chipset
technology. PPAP-3720 has six on-board Ethernet to serve communication appliances, such as
Firewall, which needs three Ethernet ports to connect external network (internet), demilitarized
zone and internal network. Different I/O management policies can be applied respectively to
individual network to achieve the highest security level. One built-in PCI-X slot permits further
expansion for WAN connection, backup connection or even customized function card. The
target market segment is communication appliance including Virtual Private Network, Load
Balancing, Quality of Service, Intrusion Detection, Virus Detection, Firewall and Voice Over IP.

This PPAP-3720 system board is eligible with Intel®Xeon processors, and 184-pin DDR DIMM
up to 4GB DDR RAM. The enhanced on-board PCI IDE interface supports 4 drives up to PIO
mode 4 timing and Ultra DMA/100 synchronous mode feature. The on-board super I/O chipset
integrates two serial ports driven by two high performance 16C550-compatible UARTs to
provide 16-byte send/receive FIFOs. Besides, the two Universal Serial Bus ports provide high-
speed data communication between peripherals and PC.
The on-board flash ROM is used to make the BIOS update easier. The high precision Real Time
Clock/Calendar is built to support Y2K for accurate scheduling and storing configuration
information. All of these features make PPAP-3720 excellent in stand-alone applications.
If any of these items is damaged or missing, please contact your vendor and save all packing
materials for future replacement and maintenance.

3.2System Architecture
The following illustration of block diagram will show you how PPAP-3720 gives you a highly
integrated system solution. The most up-to-date system architecture of PPAP-3720 includes two
main VLSI chips. It contains E7500MCH and ICH3 to support Xeon processor, DDR DIMM, PCI
bus interface, USB port, SMBus communication, and Ultra DMA/100 IDE Master. The on-board
super I/O chip Winbond W83627HF supports two UARTs, FDC, parallel port and hardware
monitoring.
PPAP-3720 has built-in Socket 603/604 to support Intel Xeon processor for cost-effective and
high performance application. However.
The E7500 MCH provides a completely integrated solution for the system controller and data
path components in a Xeon processor system. It provides optimized 64-bit DDR RAM interface.
The ICH3 provides a highly integrated multifunction for the best industry applications. It supports
2-channel dedicated Ultra ATA/33/66/100 IDE master interface, Universal Serial Bus (USB)
controllers and one 64-bit PCI bus interface.
All detailed operating relations are shown in Fig. 3-2 (PPAP-3720 System Block Diagram).
