If the primary BIOS is corrupted due to physical damage or a faulty flash upgrade, the solder
jumper J6 must be set; the system will switch over to the secondary chip and boot with default
settings.

Network Security Processor
The CP605 provides an optional network security processor from the company HIFN.
The HIFN 7951 network security processor is a high performance data encryption processor
designed for use in a variety of data communication applications. The device supports several
data compression, data encryption and data authentication algorithms.
The HIFN 1791 network processor has a PCI interface and a local SRAM memory.

Board Interfaces
2.5.1
General Purpose LED Output
The CP605 provides two software programmable GP LEDs. After reset, the default configura-
tion for the two front LEDs is Overtemperature and Watchdog status. Additionally, if the TH LED
remains on during bootup, it indicates a power failure, and if the WD LED remains on during
bootup, it indicates that PCI reset is active. In this case, please check the power supply. If the
power supply appears to be functional and this LED remains on, please contact Kontron Sup-
port. The LED's can be configured via two onboard registers. For more information please see
Chapter 4.
2.5.2
Keyboard/Mouse Interface
The onboard keyboard controller is 8042 software compatible.
The keyboard and mouse port is routed to the CompactPCI rear I/O interface. There is no front
I/O connector available. To connect a keyboard a connector is available.
The mouse port is
only available on the CompactPCI rear I/O interface.
The CP605 has a 5-pin male pinrow connector for the keyboard interface.
Note ...
The Dual BIOS feature cannot be used if the second Flash chip is used for
VxWorks® bootup.
Note ...
If the overtemperature LED flashes on and off at regular intervals it indicates
that the processor junction temperature has reached a level beyond which per-
manent silicon damage may occur. Upon assertion of Thermtrip, the processor
will shut off its internal clocks (thus halting program execution) in an attempt to
reduce the processor junction temperature.
Once activated, Thermtrip remains latched until a cold restart of the CP605 is
undertaken (all power off and then on again).
