F Added Interrupt 15 Functions F.1 Introduction This section describes the interrupt 15h functions that have been added to the TM5000 BIOS. Only added functions are described in this specification. All standard BIOS calls are described in the PhoenixBIOS Customer Docu- mentation manual. F.2 Function 46h - Subfunction 00h Read Power/Modem Configuration This function returns information on the current state of the power system and the modem. This function is duplicated at Function 46h - Subfunction 02h. Also, see related functions 4601h, 4603h and FA05h. Call with: AH = 46h AL = 00h or 02h Returns: AH = Modem Configuration 76543210 Modem Power State (0 = Off, 1 = On) Modem Enabled by SET_UP (0 = No, 1 = Yes) Modem on IRQ3 (0 = No, 1 = Yes) Modem on COM1 (0 = No, 1 = Yes) Modem Assigned (0 = No, 1 = Yes) Modem On (0 = No, 1 = Yes) SIO Only (0 = No, 1 = Yes) Reserved Added Interrupt 15 Functions F-1
AL = Power Conservation Configuration
76543210
Power Source (0 = Internal, 1 = External)
Battery State (00 = Good, 01 = Low State 1,
10 = Reserved, 11 = Low State 2)
Power Conservation Mode (00 = Auto, 01 = On,
10 = Off, 11 = Reserved)
Reserved
BH = Default system inactivity timeout (minutes)
BL = Current system inactivity timeout (minutes)
CH = Default video inactivity timeout (minutes)
CL = Current video inactivity timeout (minutes)
DH = Default fixed disk inactivity timeout (minutes)
DL = Current fixed disk inactivity timeout (minute
F.3 Function 46h - Subfunction 01h
Modify Power/Modem Configuration
This function sets power management information, and provides a method
for turning the modem on and off. Also, see related functions 4600h, 4603h
and FA05h.
Call with:
AH = 46h
AL = 01h
BL = System Inactivity Timeout
01h-21h = New Timeout (in minutes)
FFh = Don’t modify timeout
CL = Video Inactivity Timeout
01h-63h = New Timeout (in minutes)
FFh = Don’t modify timeout
DH = Modem State
00h = Turn modem off
01h = Turn modem on
FFh = Don’t modify modem state
DL = Fixed Disk Inactivity Timeout
01h-21h = New Timeout (in minutes)
FFh = Don’t modify timeout
F-2 Added Interrupt 15 Functions
Returns: AH = Error Code 00h = No Error 01h = Invalid Parameter 02h = No Modem BL = System inactivity timeout (in minutes) CL = Video inactivity timeout (in minutes) DH = Modem State 00h = Turned modem Off 01h = Turned modem On FFh = Didn’t modify state DL = Fixed Disk inactivity timeout (in minutes) CY = Set on Error (see AH) F.4 Function 46h - Subfunction 03h Get/Set Battery Status Gets and sets various information about the battery. This function is fully implemented by BatteryPro. The BIOS always returns with BL = 1 (one battery installed), no matter what request type is made. Call with: AH = 46h AL = 03h BH = Request Type 00h = Set Battery Count 01h = Set Battery Level 02h = Set Low Battery Warning Time 03h = Set Critical Low Battery Warning Enabled 04h = Set Battery Auto Full Enabled 05h = Set View Mode 06h = Set Normalized Full Battery Indication Number 0Fh = Set All Values to Defaults 80h = Get Battery Count 81h = Get Battery Level 82h = Get Low Battery Warning Time 83h = Get Critical Low Battery Warning Enabled 84h = Get Battery Auto Full Enabled 85h = Get View Mode 86h = Get Normalized Full Battery Indication Number BL = Battery Parameter (if called with BH = 0Xh) Added Interrupt 15 Functions F-3
Parameter BL Value Battery Count BH = 00hOnly legal value for this model is 1 Battery Level (0%) BH = 01h0 = empty, 100 = full, increment by 1 Low Battery Warning Time (min) BH = 02h0 - 15, increment by 1 Critical Low Battery Warning (min) BH = 03h0 = Disabled 1 = Enabled Battery Auto Full BH = 04h0 = Disabled 1 = Enabled View Mode BH = 05h0 = Disabled 1 = Enabled Normalized Number BH = 06h0 - 255, increment by 1 Reset Defaults BH = 0Fh0 Battery Count BH = 80h1 Battery Level (%) BH = 81h0 = empty, 100 = full Low Battery Warning Time (min) BH = 82h0 - 15 Critical Low Battery Warning BH = 83h0 = Disabled 1 = Enabled Battery Auto Full BH = 84h0 = Disabled 1 = Enabled View Mode BH = 85h0 = Disabled 1 = Enabled Normalized Number BH = 86h0 - 255 F.5 Function F7h - Get CPU Speed This function returns the current CPU speed and the state of Auto CPU speed mode. Also, see related function F8h. Call with: AH = F7h F-4 Added Interrupt 15 Functions
Returns: AH = 00h AL = Current CPU Speed 00h = Low 01h = High 02h = Medium BL = Current Auto Setting 00h = Off. 01h = On F.6 Function F8h - Set CPU Speed This function sets the CPU speed to low, medium, or high. Also, see related function F7h. For notebook computers configured with a i486DX2 CPU, this function will not perform a speed switch if the notebook is currently running with pro- tected mode active or emm386.exe active. The function will return an error condition (86h and CY set). Call with: AH = F8h AL = New CPU Speed 00h = Low 01h = High 02h = Medium Returns: AH = Error Code 00h = No Error 86h = Invalid Parameter CY = Set on error (see AH) F.7 Function F9h - Subfunction 5Eh Get Model Information This function returns a variety of information about the system, including the OEM company, the system, LCD, and CPU types, and reports on the presence of an internal floppy. It also returns the version numbers of the chipset ICs if possible. Also, see related functions F963h, and FA00h. Added Interrupt 15 Functions F-5
