INTRODUCTION

............................................................................................................... 

The PCFW-104-ETH is a 16-bit Ethernet Bridge interface module. The module is compliant 
to Ethernet II and IEEE 802.3 10-Base-T and is compatible with Novell NE2000 in both 8-bit 
and 16-bit operation.  The module includes a built-in 10-Base-T transceiver, Serial to Ethernet 
Bridge and a FreeWave FGRM-510X005 TTL Level 900 MHz Spread Spectrum Radio.  Option-
ally a 1.3 GHz P501X005 Military/Export only radio can be fitted.

The Serial to Ethernet Bridge is a highly integrated ASIC that combines LAN and WAN subsys-
tems to achieve a full Ethernet remote bridge.  It automatically learns the MAC addresses on 
the LAN it is connected to, and forwards only the frames destine for another LAN.  This bridge 
is placed between the RT8019 Ethernet controller and the FGRM Spread Spectrum radio to 
form a highly integrated and compact Ethernet bridge for embedded applications and is fully 
compatible with the FreeWave FGR-115RE Ethernet Bridge which makes an ideal master for 
embedded systems networking.

The PCFW-104-ETH is supplied with a utilities disk that contains drivers for a wide variety of 
networks and operating systems.  An optional boot ROM lets you boot a remote PC/104 sta-
tion automatically from a server making floppy and hard drives unnecessary.

Features

•  Fully compatible with the FreeWave FGR-115RE
•  Software Compatible with NE2000 on both 8-bit and 16-bit PC/104 slots
•  Compliant to Ethernet II and IEEE 802.3 10-Base-T
•  Jumperless operation
•  Supports Microsoft’s Plug and Play configuration for jumperless mode
•  8 Software configurable IRQ’s
•  16 Software configurable I/O address options
•  28-pin socket for Remote Boot ROM
•  93C46 Serial EEPROM for storing resource configurations and ID parameters
•  6 Diagnostic LED’s for LAN TX & RX, RS-232 TX & RX, LINK, Collision and Error status

Getting Started, Initial Configuration

The board should be fitted to the PC/104 stack.  The PCFW-104-ETH is supplied pre-config-
ured in jumperless mode, with the I/O base address of 0x340 and interrupt assignment of 
IRQ5.  To reconfigure the I/O, IRQ and operating modes please refer to the Software Drivers 
section.   The board is provided with a utilities disk containing drivers for a wide variety of 
operating systems and  netware packages. The disk also comes with a detailed help utility , 
HELP8019.exe, that will guide you through the installation procedure.
