2 System Board Chip-Set

Chip-Set

The Intel AGPset is comprised of two chips. The 440LX PAC chip and the PIIX4chip. The PAC chip (440LX) is the bridge between four buses: the PL (GTL) bus, the main memory bus, the PCI bus and the AGP (graphic) bus. The PIIX4 chip is the bridge between three buses: the PCI bus, the SM bus and the ISA bus. In addition, it contains the IDE controller, USB controller and Power Management logic

The PAC Chip (440LX)

The PAC chip, called the Intel 440LX AGPset, is contained in a Ball Grid Array (BGA) package, giving a smaller footprint and higher reliability. The PAC chip integrates a Host-to-PCI bridge, optimized DRAM controller and data path, and an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) interface. The AGP is a high performance, component level interconnect, targeted at 3D graphics applications.

PL Bus Interface

The PAC chip monitors each cycle that is initiated by the processor, and forwards those to the PCI bus that are not targeted at the local memory. It translates PL bus cycles into PCI bus cycles. The chip can support one or two Pentium II processors, at up to 66 MHz FSB clock frequency. Refer to page 35 for a description of the devices on the Processor-Local Bus.

PCI Bus Interface

The PCI bus interface is PCI 2.1 compliant. Sequential PL-to-PCI memory write cycles are translated into PCI zero wait state burst cycles. The maximum PCI burst transfer can be between 256 bytes and 4 KB. The chip supports advanced snooping for PCI master bursting, and provides a pre-fetch mechanism dedicated for IDE read. The PCI arbiter supports PCI bus arbitration for up to six masters using a rotating priority mechanism. Its hidden arbitration scheme minimizes arbitration overhead. Additional logic on the PC Workstation extends the number of fully supported masters to seven (440LX master not counted). Refer to page 39 for a description of the devices on the Processor-Local Bus.

AGP Bus Interface

A controller for the AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) slot is integrated in the 440LX PAC chip. The PAC chip supports only a synchronous AGP interface, coupling to the host bus frequency. The AGP characteristics are described in detail in Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) Controller on page 41.

Plug and Play

The HP Kayak XA/ PC Workstations have a PnP level 1.0A BIOS and meets the Windows 95 Required level for Plug and Play. Accessory boards which are Plug and Play are automatically configured by the BIOS.
2 System Board Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) Controller
Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) Controller
The AGP technology was developed as a means to access system memory as a viable alternative to augmenting the memory of the graphics subsystem needed for high quality 3D graphics applications. All models of HP Kayak XA PC Workstations support an AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) device (Laguna Graphic Controller from Cirrus). The AGP bus is based upon a 66 MHz, 32 Bit PCI bus architecture, to which several signal groups have been added. These additional signals allow to implement AGP specific control and transfer mechanisms, which are: Pipelining and sideband addressing. These control mechanisms increase the bus efficiency compared to the PCI protocol. Double clocking (2x mode). This is a transfer mechanism that doubles the peak transfer rate to 528 MB/s, as two 32 Bit words are transferred in each clock period (2 x 32 bits x 66 MHz). AGP specific transactions always use pipelining. The other two mechanisms can combine independently to pipelining, which leads to these operating modes: FRAME based AGP. Only the PCI protocol is used: 66 MHz, 32 Bits, 3.3V, 264 MB/s peak transfer rate. 1 X AGP with pipelining, sideband addressing can be added: 66 MHz, 32 Bits, 3.3V, increased bus efficiency, 264 MB/s peak transfer rate. 2 X AGP with Pipelining, sideband addressing can be added: 66 MHz double clocked, 32 Bits, 3.3V, increased bus efficiency, 528 MB/s peak transfer rate.

The Super I/O Controller (NS 82317)
The Ultra I/O chip (NS 82317) provides the control for two FDD devices, one serial port and one bidirectional multi-mode parallel port.
Serial / parallel communications ports
The 9-pin serial port (whose pin layouts are depicted on page 71) supports RS-232-C and are buffered by 16550A UARTs, with 16 Byte FIFOs. They can be programmed as COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, or disabled. The 25-pin parallel port (also depicted on page 71) is Centronics compatible, supporting IEEE 1284. It can be programmed as LPT1, LPT2, or disabled. It can operate in the following four modes: Standard mode (PC/XT, PC/AT, and PS/2 compatible). Bidirectional mode (PC/XT, PC/AT, and PS/2 compatible). Enhanced mode (enhanced parallel port, EPP, compatible). High speed mode (MS/HP extended capabilities port, ECP, compatible).
The integrated flexible disk controller (FDC) supports any combination of two of the following: tape drives, 3.5-inch flexible disk drives, 5.25-inch flexible disk drives. It is software and register compatible with the 82077AA, and 100% IBM compatible. It has an A and B drive-swapping capability and a non-burst DMA option. The real-time clock (RTC) is 146818A-compatible. With an accuracy of 20 ppm (parts per million). The configuration RAM is implemented as 256 bytes of CMOS memory. The computer has an 8042-based keyboard and mouse controller. The connector pin layouts are shown on page 71.

Audio Controller

The HP Kayak XA PC Workstation has an audio chip (AD1816) integrated on the system board. This single chip is a Plug and Play multimedia audio subsystem for concurrently processing multiple digital streams of 16-bit stereo audio.

Host Interface

The AD1816 audio chip contains all necessary ISA bus logic on chip. This logic includes address decoding for all onboards resources, control and signal interpretation, DMA selection and control logic, IRQ selection and control logic, and all interface configuration logic. It is driven from the ISA bus, and has the following specification:

BIOS Update Crisis Recovery Procedure
If, for example, during a BIOS update process, the procedure is interrupted by a power failure, and the system does not start, then you can still recover the situation of a destroyed system BIOS. However, it should be noted that during the recovery procedure, there is no image on the screen, nor access to the keyboard or mouse (only vital devices that are required to boot on the floppy are initialized). Follow these steps to recover the BIOS: 1 Ensure that you have created a DOS-bootable diskette. This floppy diskette contains all the recovery and system BIOS programming software (phlash.exe, platform.bin and hblxxxyy.Ful). Include the flash command in the autoexec.bat, for example: phlash /mode=3 HC1xyyzz.Ful H = HP Professional PC C = Kayak XA (Pentium II models) 1 = Kayak family x = major revision yy = minor revision zz = language 2 Turn off the computer. Set Switch 9 to the Closed position. 3 Insert the DOS-bootable diskette.
4 Power on the computer. 5 During the recovery process, short beeps are emitted. The recover process is finished when there is a much longer beep (after approximately 1 to 2 minutes). 6 Power off the computer. Press the power ON/OFF button (for about 5 seconds), until the ON/OFF light switches off. Set the switch 9 to the Open position.

Updating the system ROM

The System ROM can be updated with the latest BIOS firmware. This can be downloaded from HPs World Wide Web site:
http://www.hp.com/go/kayaksupport
To download a BIOS upgrade, connect to the HP Web site and follow the onscreen instructions to download the flash utility programs (FLASH.BAT, AUTOEXEC.BAT and PHLASH.EXE), the BIOS file (HC11xx.FUL), and a file called pfmhd106.bin, onto a bootable diskette. Before updating the System ROM, it is necessary to disable the PSWRD switch on the system switches (SW-7), and to type in the System Administrators Password when starting up the computer. The PCI and PnP information is erased in the process. Do not switch off the computer until the system BIOS update procedure has completed, successfully or not, otherwise irrecoverable damage to the ROM may be caused. While updating the flash ROM, the power supply switch and the reset button are disabled to prevent accidental interruption of the flash programming process.

Little Ben

Little Ben is an HP application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), designed to be a companion to the Ultra I/O chip, that is connected between the chipset and the processor. It contains the following: BIOS timer hardware wired 50 ms long 880 Hz beep module. automatic blinker that feeds the LEDs module with a 1 Hz oscillator signal. Security protection (access, flash and anti-virus protection) For 128, 256 or 512 KB Flash EEPROMs.
For the Ultra I/O space: the Serial EEPROM, serial port, parallel port and mass storage drives (disable write on Flexible Disk Drive, disable boot on any drive, disable use of any embedded drive) Advanced Power Management (APM) version 1.2 Glue logic (such as programmable chip selects) When the user requests a ShutDown from the operating system, the environment is first cleared. Any request to turn off the PC Workstation, from the control panel, or from the operating system, can only be granted if the PC Workstation is not locked by Little Bens lock bit (otherwise the power remains on, a red light is illuminated, and the buzzer is sounded).
Other ISA Accessory Devices
ISA accessory boards are for slow peripheral accessories. A diagram showing the ISA slots that are available for the desktop and minitower models is on page 27.
All PCI accessory boards are Plug and Play, although not all ISA boards are. Check the accessory boards documentation if you are unsure. In general, in a Plug and Play configuration, resources for an ISA board have to be reserved first (using the Setup utility) and then you can plug in your board. The procedure for installing an ISA accessory board that is not Plug and Play is described in the Users Guide that is supplied with the PC Workstation.
The Windows NT 4.0 operating system is not Plug and Play. Information explained above is only applicable for Plug and Play operating systems (for example, Windows 95).
Interface Devices and Mass-Storage Drives
This chapter describes the graphics, mass storage and audio devices which are supplied with the computer. It also summarizes the pin connections on the internal and external connectors.

Boot Menu

Select the order of the devices from which the BIOS attempts to boot the operating system. During POST, if the BIOS is unsuccessful at booting from one device, it will then try the next one on the Boot Device Priority list until an operating system is found. The QuickBoot Mode option allows the system to skip certain tests while booting. This decreases the time needed to boot the system.

Power Menu

This menu allows you to set the standby delay. It also allows the system administrator to decide whether the mouse is enabled as a means of reactivating the system from Standby. It is also possible to specify whether the space-bar is enabled as a means of reactivating the system from Off.
4 HP BIOS Symbios Logic SCSI Configuration Utility
Symbios Logic SCSI Configuration Utility
The Symbios Logic SCSI Configuration Utility lets you view and change the default configuration for the host adapter and all SCSI devices connected to it, or for individual SCSI devices. If, while using this utility, you accidentally disable all the controllers, pressing during the power-on self test (after the memory test) lets you recover and configure settings.
Default Settings You Can Change
The following two tables show the configuration settings that can be changed. The first table shows the global settings which impact the host adapter and all SCSI devices connected to it. The second table shows the device settings which apply to individual devices.
Settings for the Host Adapter and All Devices SCAM Support Parity Checking Host Adapter SCSI ID Scan Order Default Settings On Enabled 7 Low to High (0-Max)
Settings for Individual SCSI Devices Synchronous Transfer Rate (MB/sec) Data Width Disconnect Read Write I/O Timeout (secs) Scan for Devices at Boot Time Scan for SCSI LUNs Queue Tags
Default Settings On 10 Yes Yes Enabled
Starting the SCSI Configuration Utility
You access the SCSI Configuration Utility by pressing when the message
Press F6 to start Configuration Utility. is displayed during the
PC Workstations start-up routine. A further message is then displayed:
Please wait, invoking Configuration Utility. before the Main
menu of the Symbios Logic SCSI Configuration utility appears. The Symbios Logic SCSI Configuration Utility is described in detail in the Users Guide supplied with the PC Workstation.

Order in Which the Tests are Performed
Each time the system is powered on, or a reset is performed, the POST is executed. The POST process verifies the basic functionality of the system components and initializes certain system parameters. The POST starts by displaying a graphic screen of the HP PC Workstations logo when the PC is restarted. If you wish to view the POST details, press to get the HP Summary Screen. If the POST detects an error, the error message is displayed inside a view system errors screen, in which the error message utility (EMU) not only displays the error diagnosis, but the suggestions for corrective action (see page 93for a brief summary). Error codes are no longer displayed. Devices, such as memory and newly installed hard disks, are configured automatically. The user is not requested to confirm the change. Newly removed hard disks are detected, and the user is prompted to confirm the new configuration by pressing. Note, though, that the POST does not detect when a hard disk drive has been otherwise changed. During the POST, the BIOS and other ROM data is copied into high-speed shadow RAM. The shadow RAM is addressed at the same physical location as the original ROM in a manner which is completely transparent to applications. It therefore appears to behave as very fast ROM. This technique provides faster access to the system BIOS firmware.
An example of an Error Code Message
This example explains the different coding messages that appear in the lower left corner of the screen when the POST detects an error during startup. For example, if the error 0101 - 52 is displayed. 0101 - Post Error Code failure. This error code is accompanied by short message. For this example, the message keyboard error is displayed. A table listing the error codes, causes and symptoms is on page 94. 52 - Post Checkpoint Code. This checkpoint code indicates that a test has failed at this stage of the POST. A table listing the error codes, causes and symptoms is on page 87.
The following table lists the POST checkpoint codes written at the start of each test.

5 Power-On Self-Test and Error Messages Error Message Summary

Error Message Summary

The EMU utility (.COM application written in C language) is to provide full screen online help messages (localized) on most common POST errors. When an error is generated in POST during the boot process, EMU is run by typing ENTER. The entry point of each EMU message is a 4-digits error code generated by POST. If the POST reports an error, one of the following four error categories will be displayed.
Category #1: if the error requires to run Setup, the POST should prompt:
<F1= Continue>, <F2= Setup>, <Enter= View System Error> and pause. (refer to autoconfig specification for more details on POST prompts) Category #2:

if the error is only a warning (i.e. key stuck), the POST should prompt:
<Enter= View System Error> for 2 seconds then boot. (refer to autoconfig specification for more details on POST prompts) Category #3:
if the error is because a device has been unplugged or removed, the POST should prompt :
If errors are reported because one or more of the listed components have been removed, press <F4> to validate the changes. <F1= Continue>, <F2= Setup>, <F4= Validate Change>, <Enter= View System Error> and pause. (refer to autoconfig specification for more details on POST prompts) Category #4:
if the error is serious, the POST should prompt:
The BIOS has detected a serious problem that prevents your PC from booting. <F2= Setup>, <Enter= View System Error> and stop. Only the setup and the EMU can be run. The BIOS must never boot on HDD.
The following table list the error codes, causes and symptoms and the accompanied short message that are displayed in the upper left corner of the screen.

an additional word-bitmap (xxxx) indicating the address line or bits that failed. For example, 2C 0002 means address line 1 (bit one set) has failed. 2E 1020 means data bits 12 and 5 (bits 12 and 5 set) have failed in the lower 16 bits.
5 Power-On Self-Test and Error Messages Lights on the Hardware Control Panel
Lights on the Hardware Control Panel
When the computer is first powered on, the power-on light on the status panel illuminates yellow for about a second before changing to green. This change of color is caused by the execution of an instruction early in the System BIOS code. If the light remains at yellow, therefore, it indicates a failure of the processor or the System ROM in the instruction-fetch process. Check that the processor is correctly seated in its socket, and that the memory DIMMS and accessory cards are properly installed.

Important Safety Information
If you have any doubt that you can lift the computer or display safely, do not try to move it without help. For your safety, always connect the equipment to a grounded wall outlet. Always use a power cord with a properly grounded plug, such as the one provided with this equipment, or one in compliance with your national regulations. Your PC Workstation is disconnected from the power by removing the power cord from the power outlet. This means the PC Workstation must be located close to a power outlet that is easily accessible. For your safety, never remove your PC Workstations cover without first removing the power cord from the power outlet, and any connection to a telecommunications network. Always replace the cover on the PC Workstation before switching it on again. WARNING To avoid electric shock, do not open the power supply. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Your PC Workstation is a class 1 laser product. Do not attempt to make any adjustment to the laser units.
Important Information on Ergonomics
It is strongly recommended that you read the information on ergonomics before using your PC Workstation. This information is found in the HP-specific online help on your PC Workstation.

2 Installing Accessories in Your PC Workstation Installing Accessory Boards
Installing Accessory Boards
CAUTION Static electricity can damage electronic components. Turn OFF all equipment. Dont let your clothes touch the accessory. To equalize the static electricity, rest the accessory bag on top of the computer while you are removing the accessory from the bag. Handle the accessory as little as possible and with care. Your PC Workstation has four main accessory board slots and one supplementary PCI slot:
Slot 1 (the top slot) can be used for a full-length 32-bit PCI board. Slot 2 can be used for either a full-length 32-bit PCI or a full-length 16-bit ISA board. Slot 3 can be used for a 32-bit PCI or a 16-bit ISA board (maximum length 17-cm/6.7-inches). Slot 4 (the bottom slot) can be used for a 16-bit ISA board (maximum length 17-cm/6.7-inches). Slot 5 (the supplementary slot) is under the power supply unit. There is probably already a LAN board or a SCSI/LAN board installed in this slot. If not, and there is no hard disk installed in the corresponding shelf (refer to page 37), you can install a 32-bit PCI board (maximum length 16-cm/6.3-inch).
Configuring Accessory Boards with Plug and Play
Plug and Play is an industry standard for automatically configuring your PC Workstation's hardware resources and the accessory boards installed in it. Your PC Workstation has configurable support for Plug and Play in the BIOS. All PCI accessory boards are Plug and Play, although not all ISA boards are. Check the accessory boards documentation if you are unsure.

If Your Keyboard Does Not Work
Check that the keyboard is correctly connected. If, when you turn on your PC Workstation, the operating system boots, the keyboard is correctly connected, but your keyboard is still not available, the power-on password may be set to keyboard locked. You need to enter a password to unlock the keyboard (and mouse). Refer to the Power-On Password item in the Setup program (SecurityAdministrator Password).
If Your Mouse Does Not Work
Check that the mouse is correctly connected. Check that the mouse driver supplied with the preloaded software is installed correctly. Clean the mouse ball and rollers as shown in the figure below (use a non-residual contact cleaner).

mamdt.bk : mamdt3.fb4 Page 68 Tuesday, August 5, 1997 4:20 PM
If Your Hard Disk Does Not Work
Check that the disk power and data cables are correctly connected (refer to page 35). For an IDE drive, check the IDE Devices configuration settings in the Setup program (AdvancedIDE Devices). For an IDE drive, check the Hardware Protection settings in the Setup program (SecurityHardware Protection). For an IDE drive, check the Boot Device Security settings in the Setup program (SecurityBoot Devices Security). For a SCSI drive, check the SCSI Interface setting in the Setup program (AdvancedIntegrated SCSI Interface). You can also access this setting by pressing during the power-on self test (POST).

If Your PC Workstation Has a Software Problem
If Your Application Software Does Not Work
If the PC Workstation reports the system is OK and the indicator light over the power switch is illuminated, but some software will not run, refer to the operating system and/or application software manuals.
If the Date and Time Are Incorrect
The date and time may be incorrect for the following reasons:
The time has changed to reflect the beginning or end of Summer Time. The PC Workstation has been unplugged from the mains for too long, and the battery is discharged. The on-board battery automatically recharges itself as soon as the PC Workstation is plugged into a power outlet again.
To change the date and time, use your operating system utilities or the Setup program.
If You Cant Start the Setup Program
This may happen if the copy of the PC Workstations configuration stored in memory is corrupted. You will need to erase/clear the CMOS memory in order to fix the problem. Refer to page 60 for information on how to do this.

Service contracts which provide after-hour or weekend coverage, faster response time, or service in an Excluded Travel Area are often available from HP, an authorized dealer, or authorized distributor at additional charge.
Customer Responsibilities
The customer may be required to run HP-supplied diagnostic programs before an on-site visit or replacement part will be dispatched. The customer is responsible for the security of its proprietary and confidential information and for maintaining a procedure external to the products for reconstruction of lost or altered files, data, or programs. For on-site service, the customer must provide: access to the product; adequate working space and facilities within a reasonable distance of the product; access to and use of all information and facilities determined necessary by HP to service the product; and operating supplies and consumables such as the customer would use during normal operation. When service is being performed on-site, a representative of the customer must be present at all times. The customer must state if the product is being used in an environment which poses a potential health hazard to repair personnel; HP or the servicing dealer may require that the product be maintained by customer personnel under direct HP or dealer supervision.
