When using a matrix keypad, the DIO2 signals DIO2_0 through DIO2_7 are not available as general I/O. 

 

9  The 10/100 Base-T Ethernet Port 

The TS-5400 has two full-function IEEE 802.3 (10/100 Mbit/sec) Ethernet ports provided by Davicom 
DM9102A Ethernet controllers. The DM9102A is a single-chip, 32-bit PCI Ethernet controller that 
includes such features as full-duplex operation, power saving shutdown modes, LED indicators for link 
status/activity and auto-sense network speed detection. The physical interface is 10/100Base-T (RJ45 
connector). 

The TS-5400 has both a LINK/ACTIVITY LED and a 10/100 speed  LED built into each RJ-45 connector 
that indicates the current Ethernet status. The LINK LED (left side of connector, green) is active when a 
valid Ethernet link is detected.  This LED should be ON whenever the TS-5400 is powered on and 
properly connected to a 10/100BaseT Ethernet network.  The LINK/ACTIVITY LED will blink to indicate 
network activity either inbound or outbound. The SPEED LED (right side of connector, amber) will be on 
when a 100 Mbit network is detected and off for a 10 Mbit network. Both of these LEDs are controlled by 
the DM9102A and do not require initialization by the processor. 

DOS TCP/IP Configuration – Packet  Driver and WATTCP  

A standard packet driver for DOS is installed on the board as shipped, along with sample network 
applications written with the public domain Waterloo TCP/IP software (WATTCP). WATTCP is a freely 
available package (including source code) that provides TCP/IP connectivity for programs written for the 
DOS environment. See the Technologic Systems download page  

http://www.embeddedx86.com/downloads/wat2001t.zip

 

In addition, we have written a simple DOS HTTP web server using WATTCP that is included on the TS-
5400 utility disk. The simple web server uses CGI calls to control a DIO pin from a web browser. Full 
source code is included, and you are free to modify and extend the code for your own use on 
Technologic Systems Single Board Computers. 

The DOS packet driver (DM9PCIPD.COM) is loaded by 

AUTOEXEC.BAT

 once DOS starts. Hardware 

settings are read from the EEPROM chips and used by the packet driver to initialize each DM9102A. 
Notice in the autoexec.bat there two instances of the packet driver loaded, one for each of the Ethernet 
ports. The second Ethernet port marked Eth_2 on the board is referred to as ‘slot=2’ in the autoexec.bat. 
Below is an example of the DOS command line to load a packet driver for each Ethernet interface: 

DM9PCIPD 0X60 

DM9PCIPD –SLOT=2 0X61 

The TCP/IP settings for the WATTCP code are stored in the WATTCP.CFG configuration file in the 
A:\ETHERNET directory, this file must be modified for the network environment where the TS-5400 will 
be installed.
