Embedded Box TKS-G21-QM77B 2.1 Safety Precautions Always completely disconnect the power cord from your board whenever you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on, because a sudden rush of power can damage sensitive electronic components. Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the board. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times.

Embedded Box TKS-G21-QM77B 2.9 Setting Jumpers You configure your card to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a jumper you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” a jumper you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2 and 3.

Embedded Box TKS-G21-QM77B Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer A-1
Embedded Box TKS-G21-QM77B A.1 Programming TKS-G21-QM77B utilizes ITE IT8728F chipset as its watchdog timer controller. Below are the procedures to complete its configuration and the AAEON intial watchdog timer program is also attached based on which you can develop customized program to fit your application. Configuring Sequence Description After the hardware reset or power-on reset, the ITE 8728F enters the normal mode with all logical devices disabled except KBC.
Embedded Box TKS-G21-QM77B There are three steps to complete the configuration setup: (1) Enter the MB PnP Mode; (2) Modify the data of configuration registers; (3) Exit the MB PnP Mode. Undesired result may occur if the MB PnP Mode is not exited normally. (1) Enter the MB PnP Mode To enter the MB PnP Mode, four special I/O write operations are to be performed during Wait for Key state.
Embedded Box TKS-G21-QM77B WatchDog Timer Configuration Registers Configure Control (Index=02h) This register is write only. Its values are not sticky; that is to say, a hardware reset will automatically clear the bits, and does not require the software to clear them.

Embedded Box TKS-G21-QM77B E.2 DIO Programming TKS-G21-QM77B utilizes ITE IT8728F chipset as its Digital I/O controller. Below are the procedures to complete its configuration and the AAEON initial DIO program is also attached based on which you can develop customized program to fit your application. There are three steps to complete the configuration setup: (1) Enter the MB PnP Mode; (2) Modify the data of configuration registers; (3) Exit the MB PnP Mode.
