Chapter 1  
General Description  
The HS-6238 is a 133MHz FSB Intel® 82815 chipset-based board  
designed for PCI-ISA Bus Celeron™/Coppermine™/Tualatin™  
800MHz~1.2GHz CPU compatibility. These features combine and  
make the HS-6238 an ideal all-in-one industrial single board computer.  
Additional features include an enhanced I/O with 4COM ports, Dual  
LAN and CRT/Panel interface.  
Its onboard ATA/33/66/100 to IDE drive interface architecture allows  
the HS-6238 to support data transfers of 33, 66 or 100MB/sec. to each  
IDE drive connection. Designed with the Intel® 82815 core logic  
chipset, the board supports all Celeron™/Coppermine™/Tualatin™  
CPU series operating at 800MHz to 1.2GHz. The 82815 integrated  
CRT/Panel display controller supports up to 1280 x 1024 at 16-bit CRT  
high color resolution, and a digital RGB interface for panel displays.  
For suitable installation into any size system with 8/16/32-bit ISA and/or  
PCI slots operation, the board’s advanced PCI-ISA bus add-on feature  
allows user to easily obtain both ISA's 16-bit and PCI's 32-bit full set  
signals from a half-size PCI-ISA slot. System memory is also sufficient  
with the two DIMM sockets that can support up to 512MB.  
1
Additional onboard connectors include an advanced USB and IrDA  
ports providing faster data transmission, and two external RJ-45  
connectors for 10/100 Based Ethernet use.  
To ensure the reliability in an unmanned or standalone system, the  
Watchdog Timer (WDT) onboard HS-6238 is designed with pure  
hardware that does not need the arithmetical functions of a real-time  
clock chip. If any program causes unexpected halts to the system, the  
onboard Watchdog Timer (WDT) will automatically reset the CPU or  
generate an interrupt to resolve such condition.

AMI BIOS Setup  
The HS-6238 uses AMI BIOS for the system configuration. The AMI  
BIOS setup program is designed to provide the maximum flexibility in  
configuring the system by offering various options that could be  
selected for end-user requirements. This chapter is written to assist  
you in the proper usage of these features.  
4.1 Starting Setup  
The AMI BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the  
computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained in the  
CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and  
configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system  
on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the  
operating system.  
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one  
of two ways:  
1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or  
2. By pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears  
briefly at the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self  
Test).  
Press DEL to enter SETUP.  
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to  
enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or  
pressing the "RESET" button on the system case. You may also restart  
by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Delete> keys. If you do  
not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an  
error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to...  
PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, DEL TO ENTER SETUP  
25  
4.2 Using Setup  
In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter> to  
select, use the <PageUp> and <PageDown> keys to change entries,  
press <F1> for help and press <Esc> to quit. The following table  
provides more detail about how to navigate in the Setup program using  
the keyboard.

4.8 PCI / Plug and Play Setup  
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or  
Personal Computer Interconnect, is a system that allows I/O devices to  
operate at speeds nearing the speed the CPU itself uses when  
communicating with its own special components. This section covers  
some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only  
experienced users should make any changes to the default settings.

If enabled, BIOS will configure only PnP ISA boot devices (i.e., all  
PnP ISA cards with boot flag set) then configure all other devices.  
If disabled, the BIOS will configure all devices without following  
any sequence.  
Clear NVRAM on Every Boot:  
When this option is set to Yes, the system can auto clear NVRAM.  
PCI Latency Timer (PCI Clocks):  
This option specifies the latency timings (in PCI clocks) of PCI  
devices installed in the PCI expansion slots. The available  
settings are 32, 64, 96, 128, 160, 192, 224, and 248.  
39  
Primary Graphics Adapter:  
The settings made on this field identify the type of display  
controller used in the system. The available choices are Auto,  
Internal, and External AGP/External PCI.  
Allocate IRQ to PCI VGA:  
Set this option to Yes when allocating an IRQ to the VGA device  
on the PCI bus. The available settings are Yes, and No.  
DMA Channel 0/1/3/5/6/7:  
These options allow you to specify the bus type used by each  
DMA channel. The available settings are PnP, and ISA/EISA.  
IRQ3/4/5/7/9/10/11/14/15  
These options specify the bus on which the specified IRQ line is  
used. The options allow you to reserve IRQs for legacy ISA  
adapter cards. The options also determine if AMIBIOS should  
remove an IRQ from the pool of available IRQs passed to devices  
configurable by the system BIOS. The available IRQ pool is  
determined by reading the ESCD NVRAM. If user needs to  
remove more IRQs from the pool, he can use each option to  
reserve the IRQ by assigning an ISA/EISA setting to each.  
Onboard I/O is configured by AMIBIOS. All IRQs used by onboard  
I/O are configured as PCI/PnP.  
40  
4.9 Peripheral Setup  
The IDE hard drive controllers can support up to two separate hard  
drives. These drives have a master/slave relationship that is  
determined by the cabling configuration used to attach them to the  
controller. Your system supports two IDE controllers--a primary and a  
secondary--so you can install up to four separate hard disks.  
PIO means Programmed Input/Output. Rather than having the BIOS  
issue a series of commands to affect the transfer to or from the disk  
drive, PIO allows the BIOS to tell the controller what it wants and then  
let the controller and the CPU perform the complete task by them. This  
is much simpler and more efficient (also faster).
