2PCM-586 Technical Reference

2.1 Introduction

Thissection of the manual is intendedto providesufficient information regarding the

configuration and usage of the PCM-586 board. WinSystems maintains a Technical

SupportGrouptohelpanswerquestionsregardingconfiguration,usage,orprogramming

of the board. For answers to questions not adequately addressed in this manual, contact

Technical Support at (817) 274-7553 between 8AM and 5PM Central Time.

2.2 ACC MICRO 2089 Chipset

The PCM-586 utilizes the ACC Micro 2089 Chipset which provides a highly

integrated, high-performance backbone for full PC/AT compatibility. The 2089 contains

the logic for DRAM, CPU and Bus State control as well as the standard complement of

‘AT’ class peripherals internally, including :

8 DMA Channels compatible with PC-AT Controllers

15 Interrupt inputs compatible with master/slaved 8259 interrupt controllers

Three 8254 compatible timer/counter channels

Two 8250 compatible UARTS

EPP/ECP LPT Port

765B compatible Floppy Disk Controller

PC-AT compatible real time clock/calendar with CMOS

The functional units are 100% PC-AT compatible and are supported by the Award

BIOSandSetup. Users desiringtoaccesstheseinternal peripherals directlyshouldrefe r

to any manufacturer’s generic literature on the equivalent discrete component.

Thereareanumberofinternalregisterswithinthe2089Chipsetsectionthatareused

by the BIOS for control and configuration. Refer to the I/O Map in Appendix A for port

usage to avoid conflicts when adding external I/O devices.

2.3 Real Time Clock Calendar

The PCM-586 contains an onboard Clock/Calendar from Dallas Semi Conductor. The

DS12885S is fully compatible with the MC146818A used in the original PC-AT

computers. This clock has a number of features including periodic and alarm interrupt

capabilities. In addition to the Time and Date keeping functions, the system

configuration is kept in CMOS RAM contained within the clock section. This RAM holds

allofthe setup informationregarding hardandfloppydisktypes,videotype,shadowing,

wait states, etc. Refer to the section on the Award BIOS Setup for complete information

on what is configured via the CMOS RAM.

It may become necessary at some time to make the CMOS RAM forget its current

configuration and to start fresh with factory defaults. This may be accomplished by

removing powerandtheboardfromthesystem.ThenremovethejumperfromJ6pins1-2

and place on pins 2-3. Then short all 3 pins of J7 together for 2 seconds. Replace the

jumper at J6 to its original position, reinstall the board, power up, and reconfigure the

setup as desired.

NOTE :J6mustalwaysbe reinstalled. The systemwillnotfunction correctly without

this jumper installed. If no battery is installed, jumper J6 pins 2-3.

2.4 Keyboard Interface

The PCM-586 contains an onboard PC-AT style keyboard controller. Connection is

made through the Multi-I/O connector at J4. An adapter cable, P/N CBL-162-1, is

available from WinSystems to make ready access to all of the devices terminated at the

Multi-I/O connector. Users desiring custom connections should refer to the Multi-I/O

connector pin definitions given later in this manual.

2.5 Serial Interface

The PCM-586 provides two RS-232 serial channels onboard, configurable as RS-422

or RS-485 with the addition of optional driver ICs. The configuration options for each of

the supported modes are shown on the following pages.

2.5.1 COM 1 - RS-232

COM1 is I/O mapped at 3F8H and utilizes a 16550-type UART contained in the 2089.

When used in RS-232 mode, COM1 is terminated via the multi-I/O connector at J4. The

configuration details and the pin definitions when used with the CBL-162-1 cable are

shown here :

I/O chip. When used in RS-232 mode COM2 is terminated via the multi-I/O connector at

J4.Theconfiguration detailsand thepindefinitions whenused with theCBL-162-1 cable

are shown here :

2.5.3 RS-422 Mode Configuration

RS-422 signal levels are supported on either, or both serial channels with the

installation of the optional “Chip Kit” WinSystems’ part number CK-75176-2. This kit

provides the driver ICs necessary for a signal channel of RS-422. If two channels of RS-

422 are required then two kits will be needed. RS-422 is a 4-wire point-to-point full-

duplex interface allowing much longer cable runs than are possible with RS-232. The

differentialtransmitterand receivertwisted-pairsoffer ahighdegree ofnoiseimmunity.

RS-422 usually requires that the lines be terminated at both ends. The following

illustrations show the correct jumpering, driver IC installation, and I/O connector pin

definitions for each of the channels when used in RS-422 mode.

2.5.4 COM 1 - RS-422

RS-422 NOTE :When used in RS-422 mode, the transmitter must be enabled via

software by setting the RTS bit in the Modem Control Register (Bit 1).
