CHAPTER 2 Connector Assignments and Descriptions This chapter tells how to set up the SOM-4486 hardware. It includes instructions on connecting peripherals, switches and indicators. Make sure you read all the safety precautions before you begin the installation procedure .
Chapter 2 Connector Assignments 2.1 Connector Locations The board has a number of connectors that allow you to configure your system to suit your application. Figure 2.1: SOM-4486 Locating Connectors 2.
2.3 Safety precautions Warning! 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 sensitive electronic components can be damaged by a sudden rush of power. Caution! 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.

CHAPTER 3 Software Configuration .
Chapter 3 Software Configuration 3.1 Introduction The SOM-4486 system BIOS and custom drivers are located in a 512 KB, 32-pin Flash ROM. A single Flash chip holds the system BIOS and VGA BIOS. The display type can be configured via software. This method minimizes the number of chips and eases configuration. You can change the display BIOS simply by reprogramming the Flash chip 3.2 Utility CD disk The SOM-4486 is supplied with a software utility on CDROM.
1. Apply power to the SOM-4486 application with a color TFT display attached. This is the default setting for the SOM-4486 series. Make sure that the AWDFLASH.EXE and *.BIN files are located in the working drive. Note: Make sure that you do not run AWDFLASH.EXE while your system is operating in EMM386 mode. 2. At the prompt, type AWDFLASH.EXE and press . The VGA configuration program will then display the following: Figure 3.1: BIOS VGA setup screen 3.
The new VGA configuration will then write to the ROM BIOS chip. This configuration will remain the same until you run the AWDFLASH.EXE program and change the settings. 3.4 Connections for two channel LVDS 3.4.1 SOM-4486 X3 Table 3.
