Super IO Configuration (continued)
Parallel Port Configuration
This option enables/disables the parallel port on the IOB33 and is used to configure the I/O address and
operating mode for the parallel port. The default setting is AUTO, but you may elect to change this as
needed.
Option
Description
Parallel Port
Enable/Disable - Set this value to disable prevent the parallel port from accessing any
system resources. When the value of this option is set to Disabled, the printer port
becomes unavailable. Enabled is the BIOS default setting
Change
Settings
The default setting for this operation is AUTO, which allows the board’s BIOS to
automatically assign system resources to the IOB33 parallel port. You may also select
specific IO address and IRQ setting values from the list below:
IO=378h; IRQ=5;
IO=378h; IRQ=3,4,5,6,710,11,12;
IO=278h; IRQ=3,4,5,6,710,11,12;
IO=3BCh; IRQ=3,4,5,6,710,11,12;
IO=378h;
IO=278h;
IO=3BCh;
Note: The majority of parallel ports on computer systems use IRQ7 and I/O Port 378H
as the standard setting.
Device Mode
Standard (STD) Printer Mode is the default value for this print mode selection.
Other parallel printer operating modes available are:
SPP Mode
EPP-1.9 and SPP Mode
EPP-1.7 and SPP Mode
ECP Mode
ECP-1.9 and SPP Mode
ECP-1.7 and SPP Mode
The EPP modes enable the parallel port to be used with devices that adhere to the
Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) specification. EPP uses the existing parallel port signals
to provide asymmetric bi-directional data transfer driven by the host device.
The ECP modes enable the parallel port to be used with devices that adhere to the
Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) specification. ECP uses the DMA protocol to
achieve data transfer rates up to 2.5 Megabits per second. ECP provides symmetric bi-
directional communication.
AMT Configuration
This BIOS menu selection is used to enable/disable Intel AMT 7.0/8.0 support on the SHB. The default
setting for the Intel AMT configuration setting is: Enabled. The table below lists the board configuration
settings related to Intel AMT support.
Option
Description
AMT
Enable/ Disable -- Default setting is Enabled.
Un-configure
AMT/ME
Enable/ Disable -- Default setting is Disabled. When enabled this setting allows you
to configure the management engine associated with Intel AMT operations without
requiring a password. Use caution when enabling this setting.
Watchdog
Timer (WDT)
Enable/ Disable -- Default setting is Disabled. When enabled you may input
operating system and BIOS time-out values
OS WDT
Timer
Input a valid timer value between 0 and 65535 – (Note: The setup parameter is only
visible when the WDT value is enabled.)
BIOS WDT
Timer
Input a valid timer value between 0 and 65535– (Note: The setup parameter is only
