1.3 Installation and Configuration

The FWA-1320 comes as a pre-configured system with CPUs, memory and peripherals installed in the unit. In the rare case that you procured a barebone system or need to install components in the FWA-1320 for any other reason, please refer to section 3.

1.3.1 Connecting to the Console

FWA-1320 does not provide an interface for an external monitor in the standard configuration. BIOS output as well as OS output are provided via a serial terminal connection by default.

The remainder of this section describes how to configure PuTTY on a Windows platform for connection with the FWA-1320 serial console as a reference. Other terminal programs may be used in a similar way as well.

Open up PuTTY and begin the configuration as shown below. Please use the actual COM port's number on the client machine instead of "COM1".

Specify "COM1" under serial line and "115200" for speed, no parity, no flow control.
Check Serial for connection type.
Check "VT100+" for keypad in the keyboard submenu
Check "Colour" or "Both" for "Indicate bolded text" in the colours submenu
Click the "Open" button and a PuTTY terminal screen will appear.

If the connection is successful you should be able to see the BIOS Power On (POST) screen after powering the unit:

COM1 - PuTTY Version 2.16.1243. Copyright (C) 2013 American Megatrends, Inc. BIOS Date: 08/22/2014 10:26:06 Ver: NAMB2320V038 Press or to enter setup.

Figure 1.5 BIOS POST screen

Please note that the BISO is doing some initial start up work while the console is still not active. It may take a while until the BIOS POST screen appears. On the other hand, the BIOS has been optimized for minimum boot time. The BIOS will move through POST quickly and immediately try to boot an OS according to the selected boot options in the BIOS:

In case you would extend the time the BIOS displays the POST screen and waits for a key press to enter the setup menu, you can do so via the BIOS setup menu. Please refer to section 3.2 for details.

1.3.2 Installing an OS

Several options are available for OS installation:

System comes with a preinstalled OS
Install an image from a USB key
Install an OS via network boot.

If you use Advantech's services to pre-install an OS, you can skip the following section.

1.3.2.1 Pre-Installed reference OS

If you receive this manual along with a sample unit, the system will have a reference OS installed by default. The unit will be ready to boot the reference OS from the mass storage option selected.

1.3.2.2 Installing and/or boot an OS from a USB key

To install an OS via USB and/or boot the appliance from an USB stick, please make sure the following BIOS options are configured properly:

Advanced Setup: USB Configuration: Mass Storage Driver = Enabled

To boot from a USB stick:

  1. Create a Live USB stick using LiLi (available via http://www.linuxliveusb.com/) or a similar tool. Please make sure to configure the Linux for the operation with a serial console (115200bd, 8N1, no handshake). Enabling serial support in the Linux bootloader (grub or similar) as well as kernel debug messages via serial console may be valuable for potential troubleshooting.
  2. Install the USB stick in one of the front ports. Make sure you have a serial console connection established via tools such as PuTTY as described earlier.
  3. Power on the appliance.
  4. The boot priority in the FWA-1320's BIOS is giving SATA devices higher priority than USB devices. This is a safety measure to avoid that any end user can tamper the unit when installed in the field with a bootable USB stick. So, in order to boot from the USB stick, you need to enter BIOS setup. In BIOS setup menu, move to the "Boot" menu. You can either give the USB stick higher boot priority over SATA devices. Alternatively, you can select the USB stick in the "Boot Override" Menu. Boot Override will modify the boot order for a single boot process only and will automatically revert back to the original boot priority. After making these changes leave the Setup Menu via "Save&Exit". This will restart the appliance and it will boot from the USB stick.

1.3.2.3 Installing an OS via network boot

To install an OS via network, basically works the same way as booting an OS via USB stick described above.

The main difference is that instead of a Linux live image you need to install a network installer / a network installable image on the USB key. Network Installers or network installable iso images are available for most Linux distributions such as RedHat, Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS. For detailed information, please refer to the documentation of the related network installer and / or Linux distribution.

Please make sure you configure the network installer image properly for the Ethernet port / device of the FWA-320 that you plan to sue for the installation.

1.3.2.4 Booting an OS via network boot

The FWA-1320 supports booting over network via PXE.

To boot an OS via network, please make sure the following BIOS options In the Advanced: Network Stack Configuration Menu are configured properly:

Table 1.1: PXE BIOS Options

Network Stack Enabled Enables the UEFI Network Stack.
IPv4 PXE SupportEnabledEnabled if PXE booting in an IPv4 network;disabled otherwise
Disabled
IPv6 PXE SupportEnabledEnabled if PXE booting in an IPv6 network;disabled otherwise

PXE boot usually does not allow for OS installation over network as the PXE client will only load a single file from the boot server. Similarly, booting Linux over network is usually a two stage process. In the first step, a boot loader such a grub or mini OS such as SysLinux are loaded via PXE from the boot server. The boot loader or miniOS then load the actual target OS which usually consists of multiple files which decompressed and installed into a RAM disk. The detailed process and required configuration of such network install will heavily depend on the target OS and boot loader / miniOS used. Please refer to the related documentation available.

PXE boot requires a DHCP server and a TFTP server in the network to complete. DHCP Server and TFTP server are commonly run on the same machine and collectively referred to as "boot server". Setting up such a boot server implies a couple of steps. How-to guides for setting up Linux as PXE boot server are available on the internet, e.g. https://www.debian-administration.org/article/478/Setting_up_a_server_for_PXE_network_booting.

Please note that it is recommended to setup a separate network / subnet for network booting as the DHCP required for PXE booting may conflict with existing DHCP servers in your network.

The PXE client in the FWA-1320 sends the system's GUID as part of the DHCP Request. Some boot servers have mechanisms to automatically configure the target OS image based on the client system's GUID. Using this mechanism allows to use the same boot server for network booting of different devices / appliances.

2.4.4.3 Legacy Functions and IO

1. RTC

The SoC contains an MC146818B-compatible Real-Time Clock (RTC) with 256 bytes of battery-backed RAM (CMOS RAM) which is reserved for legacy use. The real-time clock keeps track of the system time. The RTC operates on a 32.768 KHz crystal and is buffered by a 3.3 V coin battery (B1).

The typical current draw in the system off state equals 6uA which yields a maximum system off time of 17520hours based on the capacity of the battery used. Please note that environmental conditions, especially temperature, can lead to a change of current draw and that effects like battery self discharge current and other leakage need to be factored in.

The Firmware Version in use is 3.17.

2.4.8 BIOS

The FWA-1320's BIOS is based on AMI's APTIO BIOS and compliant to the UEFI, SMBIOS and ACPI specifications.

The BIOS performs probing, initialization and configuration of the FWA-1320 and initializes the OS boot process at the end of POST (Power On Self Test).

Regular BIOS output as well as the setup menu are displayed via the console port. Please refer to section 1.3.3 reg. the console connection process.

The BIOS Setup Menu is described in detail in section 3.2. BIOS Error Codes used during POST are described in appendix B.

Please note that the FWA-1320 does not have any onboard POST Code LEDs onboard. A special POST code adapter is required to retrieve BIOS error codes.

All BIOS configuration parameters bare stored in NVRAM, a dedicated section of the BIOS flash chip. Parameters are no longer stored in legacy CMOS RAM by the platform BIOS. I.e. BIOS configuration parameters will not be lost due to an empty battery.

2.4.8.1 Password Protection

The BIOS supports and administrator password to restrict access to the BIOS setup menu to qualified and trusted personal, only.

2.4.8.2 BIOS Defaults

The BIOS comes with a set of configuration parameters when shipped by Advantech referred to as “Optimized Defaults” or “factory defaults”. The user can change BIOS settings via the setup menu either temporarily or permanently by saving the changes as “User defaults”.

The BIOS loads Optimized Defaults by the option "Restore Defaults; and loads User defaults by the option "Restore User Defaults". If no User defaults have been defined, the BIOS will do nothing.

2.4.8.3 PCIe Tree

The BIOS also performs an enumeration of all PCIe resources, builds a bus/device map and assigns resources to the PCIe devices. Most OSes perform a reallocation of resources during start up. However, the PCIe bus/device map will not be changed by the OS. The table below gives an overview of the PCIe devices and their corresponding system function:

2.4.9 Platform Management

A Nuvoton NCT7904 Hardware Monitor Chip (HWM) provides hardware monitoring capabilities on the FWA-1320. The HWM chip is connector to the PCH's SMBus. Standard software packages such as "lmsensors" can be used on the host to provide sensor information under Linux. Advantech provides the required patch that adds support for the HWM chip and a system specific configuration file.

Please contact your Advantech representative if you wish to receive the Imsensors patch or, in case you want to implement your own hardware monitoring solution, to obtain more details regarding the hardware implementation.

The HWM monitors all critical voltages on the FWA-1320:

Pin No. Pin Name Function

2.4.9.1 Electronic Label: FRU EEPROM

The FWA-1320 supports an onboard FRU EEPROM which can be accessed via SMBus 0 using afru.

Alternatively, FRU information is also embedded in DMI Tables 1/2/3 and can be displayed with DMI parsing tools like dmidecode.

2.5 Advanced Platform Features

2.5.1 Intrusion Detection

The FWA-1320 does not support intrusion detection by default. This feature has been reserved in the motherboard design, though, and can be enabled at system level via customization. Please contact your Advantech representative should you be interested in this option.

2.5.2 Watchdog

The FWA-1320 provides a programmable watchdog that may be used to reset the system in case it bites due to malfunctioning application software to restore the unit to a known good state. The watchdog is based on intel's TCO timer and is integrated in the Atom C2000 device. The TCO watchdog timer is supported under Linux via a kernel driver (iTCO_wdt.ko). Please refer to Linux as well as ATOM C2000 documentation should you need more details.

2.5.3 LAN Bypass

For a detailed description of the LAN Bypass functionality and the related software API, please refer to the Advanced LAN Bypass User's Manual.

LAN bypass allows automated or manual control of the connectivity between two LAN ports grouped into a bypass segment and the host:

    end

Figure 2.13 Connectivity options of LAN ports in a bypass segment

In “connect” mode, the ports on a segment are connected to the host via NICs. Traffic will enter and leave the ports just like on a regular NIC.

In “disconnect” mode, the ports are disconnected from the host and from each other. No traffic can flow through the ports

In “bypass” mode, the two ports are disconnected from the host, but connected to each other. Traffic entering the system on one port will be sent out on the other port and vice versa.

"Bypass mode" is used to allow traffic to flow through the system when the system is in a non operational state such as loss of power or in case the application is unresponsive. Application health is monitored by a configurable watchdog.

"Disconnect" mode is typically used to block any traffic until the system has fully started up and the application SW is in a well defined state allowing to handle traffic properly.

Connectivity can be auto controlled by a number of system events:

Power Up

Host system is turned on / powers up (DC on)

Power Down

Host system is turned off / powers down (DC off)

Power Reset

Host system is reset or rebooted

Watchdog Start

LAN bypass watchdog is started or strobed for the first time

Watchdog Timeout

LAN bypass watchdog timed out

External Trigger

Global Watchdog Trigger input (dedicated GPIO pin)

In addition to the event driven model, it is also possible to set the connectivity for a bypass segment via the SW API.

2.5.3.1 LAN Bypass Segments

The FWA-1320 supports four onboard traffic ports which are grouped into 2 bypass segments as shown below:

Figure 2.14 Onboard LAN ports and bypass segments

2.5.3.2 Bypass Watchdog Support

Each bypass segment is support by an independent watchdog timer. The timer basis is set to 100ms. Watchdog timeout periods can be set between 100ms and 6553.5 seconds (about 109 minutes).

The FWA-1320 also supports a global watchdog trigger which allows multiple bypass segments to be controlled at the same time. The global watchdog signal is connected between the two onboard bypass segments and also to the PCIe extension connector (for future use).

2.5.3.3 LED Behaviour

Advantech Advanced LAN bypass uses a LED to show the state of a bypass segment. Usually the bypass LED is implemented as a dual colour LED combined with a regular LAN port LED. The table below shows the status of the bypass LED, only. For a complete description of port LEDs please refer to appendix A.3.2).

Warranty and RMA

D.1 Warranty and RMA

Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of purchase.

This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or which have been subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Advantech assumes no liability under the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events.

Because of Advantech's high quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of our customers never need to use our repair service. If an Advantech product is defective, it will be repaired or replaced at no charge during the warranty period. For out-of-warranty repairs, you will be billed according to the cost of replacement materials, service time and freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.

If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:

  1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered, for example, Advantech products used, other hardware and software used, etc. Note anything abnormal and list any onscreen messages you get when the problem occurs.
  2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product, and any helpful information readily available.
  3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return merchandise authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us to process your return more quickly.
  4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and Replacement Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt) in a shippable container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date is not eligible for warranty service.
  5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and ship it prepaid to your dealer.
