Boot Sequence

BIOS

Technologic Systems uses a combination of Coreboot and SeaBIOS provided from the CPU manufacturer to bootstrap into FreeDOS. Unlike many BIOS solutions, this system has no peripheral settings that require customization, allowing the downstream developer to move more directly into product development.

Features

GPIO

The TS-4400 provides 69 FPGA-Based GPIO to the TS-8554 baseboard. The table below provides the DIO number associated with the DIO memory registers, the pin's primary function, and the pin's endpoint location on the TS-8554 baseboard. TODO: Add electrical characteristics such as inout, voltage, and max sink/source to this table. TODO II: Delete CN1 location information.

Product Notes

FCC Advisory

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly (that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions), may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference when operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the owner will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

If this equipment does cause interference, which can be determined by turning the unit on and off, the user is encouraged to try the following measures to correct the interference:

Reorient the receiving antenna. Relocate the unit with respect to the receiver. Plug the unit into a different outlet so that the unit and receiver are on different branch circuits. Ensure that mounting screws and connector attachment screws are tightly secured. Ensure that good quality, shielded, and grounded cables are used for all data communications. If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The following booklets prepared by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) may also prove helpful:

How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems (Stock No. 004-000-000345-4) Interface Handbook (Stock No. 004-000-004505-7) These booklets may be purchased from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402.
