CHAPTER 2 5 Windows XP Embedded Sections include: • EWF • HORM • Advantech Utilities
Chapter 5 Windows XP Embedded TPC-1270 is in support of embedded windows platform. This section is to state the important features, EWF and HORN, provided in windows XP embedded. 5.1 EWF EWF stands for Enhanced Write Filter. It provides an upper filter in the storage device driver stack that redirects disk write operations to volatile (RAM) or non-volatile (disk) storage. EWF protects a volume from write access. The benefits are as the following. Write-protect one or more partitions on your system.
Enable EWF: Run OSLock, and then system reboot automatically. Open those software that customers want to directly use after system resume from hibernation. Hibernate via Advantech HORM utility: Please Click Start Menu->All Programs->Advantech->HORM HORM environment remains all along unless the following events occur: Run EWF commit command (ewfmgr c: -commit) and then reboot system.
5.3.2 OSLock and OSUnLock The two utilities assist users to enable or disable EWF. Please go to Start Menu-> All Programs-> Advantech. The default setting of EWF is disabled. Users can protect C partition from any disk writing via OSLock that is to enable EWF RAM REG Mode. In this mode, any changes on C partition including modification on files or registry will be redirected to memory, thus these changes will be discarded in the next system startup. To exit this environment is via OSUnLock.

B APPENDIX 2 Watchdog Timer Programming
Appendix B WDT Programming B.1 Overview The TPC-1270 cards’ watchdog timer can be used to monitor system software operation and take corrective action if the software fails to function after the programmed period. This section describes the operation of the watchdog timer, and how to program it. The watchdog timer is built into the super I/O controller W83627HF. It provides the following functions for user programming: • Can be enabled and disabled by user's program.
B.2 Watchdog Timer Programming The I/O port address of the watchdog timer is 2E(hex) and 2F(hex), 2E (hex) is the address port. 2F(hex) is the data port. You must first assign the address of register by writing address value into address port 2E(hex), then write/read data to/from the assigned register through data port 2F (hex). Figure B.
Table B.1: Watchdog Timer Registers Address of register (2E) Attribute Description Read/Write Value (2F) and description 87 (hex) ----- Write this address to I/O address port 2E (hex) twice to unlock the W83627HF 07 (hex) write Write 08 (hex) to select register of watchdog timer. 30 (hex) write Write 01 (hex) to enable the function of the watchdog timer. Disabled is set as default. F5 (hex) write Set seconds or minutes as units for the timer. Write 0 to bit 3: set second as counting unit.
