(http://www.testmetrix.com) a general compliance test program is offered for regist ered customer by testmetrix. if customer has no user name and password, please contact with us. customer has to use the latest compliance test program updated by testmetrix.
reference guide manual S3F49FAX 4 2 card utility program 2.1 overview this utility program is the flash initia lization program provided by samsung. in order to process the initialization program, manufacturer should use batch file of each densi ty made by samsung. the batch file consists of ata and vendor unique command. samsung provides the following files to manufacturer. note if customer wants to test assembled card, plea se test it under native-dos with smartdrv. 2.2 schematics and manual files ? s3f49fa_cfcard_xx.pdf: cf card schematic (x means that version number for compactflash card) ? s3f49fa_ide_xx. pdf: ide disk schematic (x means that version number for ide interface like hdd) ? s3f49fa_specifcation _xx. pd f: data sheet for S3F49FAX (x means that version number for firmware revision)
reference guide manual S3F49FAX 5 2.3 utility program files users should create a new dire ctory and copy all the files to this new directory. vcinit.c : vcinit source file firebat.c : firebat source file setcmd.c : setcmd source file longsec.c : longsec source file getopt.c : getopt source file ioaddr.h : input/output address header file firebat.h : frebat header file getopt.h : getopt header file rwtest.c : rwtest source file chs.dat : it contains chs value that user defined. vendor.dat : it contains vendor / se rial information that user defined. 2.4 setup i/o range for system first of all, customer should search i/o range used on customer system. in case of using the cardsoft program made by systemsoft co., customer can check i/o ran ge using "cardinfo" command under dos environment. if customer finds your system i/o range, for exam ple, 0x380-0x38f, change header file as follows: (in ioaddr.h) #define command_port 0x387 #define feature_port 0x381 #define sector_count_port 0x382 #define sector_num_port 0x383 #define cylinder_low_port 0x384 #define cylinder_high_port 0x385 #define drive_head_port 0x386 #define error_port 0x381 #define status_port 0x387 #define data_port 0x380
reference guide manual S3F49FAX 6 3. recompile the source file each by each by using tu rbo-c or borland-c compiler. and then customer will get setcmd.exe, and longsec.exe. to distinguish used i/o range address in the batch file, rename execution files as follows: setcmd.exe ===> set380.exe longsec.exe ===> long380.exe vcinit.exe ===> vc380.exe firebat.exe ===> fire380.exe if i/o range was 0x270, customer can re name the execution files as follows: setcmd.exe ===> set270.exe longsec.exe ===> long270.exe vcinit.exe ===> vc270.exe firebat.exe ===> fire270.exe setcmd function: setcmd execution file per forms the ata commands and vendor unique commands. longsec function: longsec executi on file performs the same functions of setcmd file except long byte(528bytes) access. vcinit function: vcinit execution file performs that it initialize the cf card and write cis data. firebat function: firebat execution file perfo rms that it update the firmware of controller 4. now, customer can use these commands as shown in the following format: (setcmd, longsec) command [definition file] * command ~ setcmd or longsec * [definition file] ~ this is option. ex) case1: to read sector c:> set380 00 01 01 00 00 e0 20 sector's data is displayed to the screen case2: to execute initial drive parameter command c:> set380 00 20 00 00 00 02 91 case3: to write sector as all "ff" c:> set380 00 01 01 00 00 e0 30 ff case4: to read physical sector from 3rd chip, 0 block, 1 page c:> long380 f0 c0 02 01 00 00 ef
reference guide manual S3F49FAX 7 5. vcinit has one option parameter. vcinit /c /c : it is necessary to executing this operation initial mode : 0 ? no more check 1 ? erase check 2 ? blank check 3 ? pattern check 6. firebat program has one option parameter. firebat /f /f : it is necessary to execute this operation image file: file name of firmware image 7. rwtest program does not have the option parameter.
reference guide manual S3F49FAX 8 2.5 how to use utility program 2.5.1 batch file features the compact flash card and ide disk need initialization before they are used for the first time. this process requires the several special information. customer shoul d set the appropriate parameters in the batch file for different density and the number of chips for example, the initialization of the compac t flash card consists of following process. 1) flash memory initialization and cis/idi information amendment 2) write/read/verify the sector in cf card 3) mbr/pbr write 4) logical formatting for example, the initialization of the id e disk consists of following process. 1) flash memory initialization and cis/idi information amendment 2) write/read/verify the sector in cf card 3) after rebooting on your pc, try to execute fdisk 4) logical formatting a batch file is used for the consecutive execution of th e above process. this batch file consists of several command according to the above 1) ~ 5) sequences. the main commands used in a batch file, are ? vcinit ?, ? rwtest ?, ? atainit ? and ? format ?. ?vcinit?, ?rwtest? programs are the utility commands whic h supported by samsung electronics. when customer wants to use these commands, the modificati ons of the command arguments and the definition file are required. ?atainit? is the special command that is giv en by pc card reader (pcmcia type) maker. ?format? is dos command.
reference guide manual S3F49FAX 9 2.5.2 the details of commands the main commands need to parameters input. the vcinit commands require 2 parameters input. following source files are the batch files to initialize the cf card automatically vcinit /c 2 1) flash memory initialization cis/idi information amendment rwtest.exe 2) test the logical sector in the cf card atainit.exe d: /v 3) write the mbr/pbr format d: 4) logical dos format caution to initialize an ide disk based on these platforms, customer should remove two lines (? atainit .exe d: /v? and ? format d:?) from the batch file of compact flash card above. that is, customer should not use cardsoft program made by systemsoft co.. an init ialization method for ide disk is as follows. 1. setting of hardware: - connect to primary master or slave - use dos diskette for ide drive system booting - try to store source, execution and batch files into dos diskette 2. execute power-off or software reset (ctrl+alt+delete) 3. execute an appropriate batch file according to the disk capacity 4. after rebooting on pc, try to execute fdisk and logical dos format
reference guide manual S3F49FAX 10 2.5.3 command form [form] setcmd [form ] longsec feature register set value. used when the host sets a particular function to the card. available only for writing data and not for reading. sector count register set value. the host sets the number of sectors to transfer in this register. the default setting is ?01h? . the number of sectors are 256 when ?00h? is set. sector number register set value. sets the number of the sector where transfer start. cylinder low register set value. sets the lower 8bits of the number of the cylinder where the sector transfer starts. cylinder high register set value. sets the upper 8bits of the number of the cylinder where the sector transfer starts. drive head register set value. sets the lba,drv and head number . w hen lba=0,the cylinder head sector(chs) mode is selected. the drv bit is used for select ing the master or slave configuration. the card can be accessed when the drv# bit of the socket and copy register is equal to this bit. bit3 to bit0 are used to set the number of the head where sector transfer starts. command register set value.
