There are two different riser cards that can be fitted to NASA-6109 CPU board. The first one is a 98pin ISA only Bus
riser card (traditional ISA Bus riser card), the second one is a 188pins PCI/ISA riser card.
Please note: PCI/ISA riser cards jumper settings have to be matched with the motherboard INT/AD-select
jumper.
The default INT/AD-select for NASA-6109/3601MAll-In-One motherboard is listed in the above table. However, it could
be revised by changing JP14 setting for different INT/AD-select. The following table shows the variable configurations:

Note: Even change the setting for different configuration theAD-select should be match to each INT. Please using the
default setting as above if you are not familiar with the configuration of raiser card and add-on card.
Caution: Do not insert PCI BusAdd-On cards directly into the on-board expansion slot!
2-6.
Assigning IRQs for Expansion Cards
Some expansion cards require an IRQ (Interrupt request vector) to operate. Generally, each IRQ must be exclusively
assigned to specific use. In a standard design, there are 16 IRQ available with 11 of them already in used by other part
of the system.
Both ISA and PCI expansion cards may need to use IRQ. Cards installed in the ISAExpansion Bus have the first
priority to use the available system IRQs. Any remaining IRQ then, may be assigned to this PCI Bus. Microsoft's
Diagnostic (MSD.EXE) utility included in the Windows directory can be used to see their map. Make sure that there are
no two devices using the same IRQ in the system. Otherwise this will cause the system to hang up or give unexpected
results. To simplify the process, this motherboard complies with the Plug and Play (PnP) specifications, which was
developed to allow automatic system configuration. Whenever a PnP-compliant card is added to the system, PnP cards
and IRQs are automatically assigned if available. If the system has both Legacy and PnP ISA cards installed. IRQs
are assigned to PnP cards from those not used by Legacy cards. The PCI and PnP configuration in the BIOS setup
utility can be used to indicate
which IRQs have being used by Legacy cards. For older Legacy cards that do not work with the BIOS, you can contact
your vendor for an ISA configuration utility.
- 21 -
An IRQ number is automatically assigned to PCI expansion cards after those used by Legacy and PnP ISA cards. In
the PCI Bus design, the BIOS is automatically assigned an IRQ to a PCI slot that has a card in it which requires an IRQ.
To install a PCI card, you need to set the correct "ADSEL" and "INT" (interrupt) assignment. Please refer to "Chapter
2-5" Installing a Riser Card for detail assignments.

2-8. Assigning DMA Channels for ISA Cards
Since ISA cards, both Legacy and PnP may also need to use a DMA (direct memory access) channel, DMA
assignments for this motherboard are handled the same way as the IRQ assignment process described above. You
can select a DMA channel in the PCI and PnP configuration section of the BIOS setup utility. In the BIOS setup, you
should choose "Yes" for those IRQ's and DMA's you wish to reserve for Legacy cards.

These options specify the bus that the specified IRQ line is used on. These options allow you to reserve IRQs for legacy
ISA adapter cards. These options determine if AMIBIOS should remove an IRQ from the pool of available IRQs passed
to devices that are configurable by the system BIOS. The available IRQ pool is determined by reading the ESCD
NVRAM. If more IRQs must be removed from the pool, the end user can use these options to reserve the IRQ by
assigning an ISA/EISA setting to it. Onboard I/O is configured by AMIBIOS. All IRQs used by onboard I/O are configured
as PCI/PnP. IRQ12 only appears if the Mouse Support option inAdvanced Setup is set to Disabled. IRQ14 and 15 will
not be available if the onboard PCI IDE is enabled. If all IRQs are set to ISA/EISA and IRQ14 and 15 are allocated to the
onboard PCI IDE, IRQ9 will still be available for PCI and PnP devices, because at least one IRQ must be available for

5-3. Connecting 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet Network
The system board provides an RJ-45 port for connection to 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet or 10Base-T Ethernet Network
with a single connection over unshielded twisted-pair (UTP). The adapter automatically operates at 10Mbps or
100Mbps when the appropriate 10/100Base hub be connected.
To connect the adapter to 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet Network, you need a twisted-pair Category 5 cable with RJ-45
modular jacks at both ends. This cable can have a maximum length of 300 feet (100 meters).
5-4. Connecting 10Base-T Ethernet Network
To connect the adapter to a 10Base-T Ethernet Network, you need a twisted-pair Category 3, 4 or 5 cables with RJ-45
modular jacks at both ends. This cable can have a maximum length of 300 feet (100 meters).
5-5. 10MBase/100MBase Installation Notice
-
100Mbps network must be shielded twisted-pair (STP) or Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair cable. Do not use a
Category 3 or 4 cable for 100Mbps-network operation, it could cause data loss. Category 3 or 4 cable is good for
- 38 -
10Mbps network only.
Category 5 cable is also good for 10Mbps operation. Use UTP Category 5 cable for the versatility to operate the
network at either 100Mbps or 10Mbps speed without changing cable.
-
-
-
Two pairs of wiring are required.
Depending on building codes, different insulation materials may be required. Plenum-rated or TEFLON-coated
wiring maybe required in some areas where fire proofing is required.
-
-
The wire gauge should be between 18 and 26AWG (Most telephone installations use 24-gauge wiring).
UTP cable should meet the following requirements:
1. Solid copper
2. Nominal capacitance: less than 16pF/ft
3. Nominal impedance: 100 ohms
4. Nominal attenuation: less than 11.5db
Automatic Selection of the Media Type
While the driver installs, it automatically detects the media type based on the type of cable connected. Once you
change the cable type, you must reinstall the driver to execute auto-detect again.
If the driver cannot detect which cable is connected or whether a cable is connected, look at cabling network
driver (Ex. Modify net.cfg file parameters— force line speed=10 or 100).
10/100 Auto – Negotiation (N-Way)
Depending on the hub or connected device, the LAN adapter can automatically run at the appropriate speed, by using
N-way, a feature that complies with the IEEE802.3 standard. It also works with any of the other IEEE-compliant products.
5-6. Remote BOOT ROM Installation Guide
A BOOT ROM allows the computer to boot up over the network, instead of using the local operating system device.
This enables the system to be a diskless workstation environment.
1. Make sure the BOOT ROM is properly oriented. Incorrect orientation may damage the chip!
2. Use the utility of RSET8139.exe to enable the BOOT ROM.
3. Reboot the system to use the BOOT ROM function.
BOOT ROM Type:
Once the PCI system detects the presence of a BOOT ROM chip on the adapter during boot-up, it will automatically set
a working configuration. Supports 64K FLASH ROMs (PLCC Type) for an upgrade BOOT ROM.
- 39 -
5-7. LED Indicators
The system board comes with two LED indicators on the edge of the motherboard that indicates the network system
status. If you experience any problems with the adapter, first make sure the appropriate driver is loaded, the proper
cable is connected to the RJ-45 port and the hub complies with the adapter specification, such as 10Mbps 10Base-T or
100Mbps 100Bast-TX. Finally, recheck the LEDs.
FUDUP (Full Duplex) Indicator
When indicator is ON, it indicates Full-duplex mode: otherwise, it is OFF. The adapter supports full duplex at 10 or
100Mbps. If the switch-hub supports the N-way feature and full duplex, the system automatically runs in full duplex
mode.
Tx/Rx (Transmit/Receiver) Indicator
This indicator flashes to display that there is network activity – indicating transmission or reception data from the network.
5-8. The Setup Program
The package includes a diskette containing the setup program. This program allows you to verify the configuration and
isolation of faults. The adapter’s I/O port address and interrupt request levels (IRQ) are set by the BIOS. Other default
settings can be changed for situations as shown below. Problem (RESET8139.exe) provides the following function:
-
Displays the current configuration of the adapter
- Performs network diagnostic tests to verify the operation of the adapters basic functions, and the adapters ability to
communicate over the network with another adapter.
- Provides set up for new configuration to make a change specify settings: Remote BOOT ROM, Flow Control and
Full-Duplex mode Enable/or Disable
Full duplex operation is set automatically if the Full-duplex option is set to Disable. Please follow the prompt instructions
to set-up or change the system configuration.
Note: Before running the setup program, make sure the adapter’s driver is not loaded, otherwise unpredictable results
may arise!
The setup program can be set the on board configuration to provide diagnostic testing. It is for testing the basic function
verification, EEPROM dataAccess, loop back operation, and the ability to communicate over the network with another
adapter. To access this program, insert the Driver Diskette into the floppy disk
drive and then type the following at the DOS prompt:
- 40 -
>> A:\REST8139.EXE <ENTER>
1. View Current Configuration
This allows you to find the PCI Fast Ethernet adapter current configuration in your system.
2. Set Up New Configuration
Select New Set Up Configuration option from the main menu
The option settings can be changed, the table shown as below:
Option
Default Setting
Other Available Settings
Full-duplex

TX Disable, RX Disable
Note: Before setting the adapter for full duplex, make sure the hub switch is also set to full duplex. Before you
activate the switching hub to server connection, make sure the hub switch and adapter are configured for full
duplex.
3. Run Diagnostics
Running diagnostic tests perform basic function verification for on board
LAN adapters. The basic Diagnostic tests include:
- EEPROM Test: EEPROM data read/write test
-
-
Diagnostics On Board: Performs on board basic function verification
Diagnostics On Network: To run this test on the network, you will need another computer set up as a Responder to
receive packets from the adapter being tested and echo them back to the adapter. This checks the adapter’s ability for
communication over the network with another adapter to receive and transmit network packets.
4. Software Installation
Installing Network Drivers
You must install a network driver to allow the adapter to work with your network operating system.
The system board provides various network drivers on the driver diskette. The following provides the installation
