Information about boards
To prevent damage to the mainboard, the components and conductors on it, please take great care
when you insert or remove boards. Take great care to ensure that extension boards are slotted in
straight, without damaging components or conductors on the mainboard, or any other components,
for example EMI spring contacts.
Remove the plug from the mains outlet so that system and mainboard are totally disconnected from
the mains voltage.
Be careful with the locking mechanisms (catches, centring pins etc.) when you replace the
mainboard or components on it, for example memory modules or processors.
Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage.
Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are identifiable by the label shown.
When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must, under all circumstances,
observe the following:
•You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a grounded object)
before working.
•The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.
•Remove the power plug from the mains supply before inserting or removing
boards containing ESDs.
•Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.
•Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.

Temperature / System monitoring
Temperature and system monitoring aim to reliably protect the computer hardware against damage
caused by overheating. However, unnecessary noise is prevented with a fan speed adapted to the
temperature conditions. In addition, important information on the operating state of the device
(temperature, operating voltate, fan speeds, error states) is provided. The cover monitoring system
indicates an unauthorized opening of the device.
These functions are controlled by the Baseboard management controller.
The following functions are supported:
Temperature monitoring:
Measurement of the processor temperature, measurement of the air temperature upon entry with a
temperature sensor.
Temperature control:
The fan speed of the system fan is controlled depending on the air temperature upon entry. When a
specified temperature limit is exceeded, the processor clock frequency is also reduced (throttling
mode) to prevent further warming of and damage to the processor.
Fan monitoring:
Blocked fans or a reduced fan speed due to ageing can be detected with the fan monitoring
function. Blocked fans are operated with 12 V pulse voltage. An attempt is made to restart a blocked
system fan with a cyclical voltage pulse. If the system fan is removed with the device switched off,
this results in an error message when the device is switched on again. This is indicated optically by
the flashing of the system error LED on the control panel. In addition, an entry is generated in the
BIOS Error Log.
Fan control:
The system fan and power supply fan are controlled in dependence on the temperature.
When exceeding predefined temperature threshold the fanmotors in the power supply modules are
accelerated to maximale rotational speed.
Sensor monitoring:
The installed sensors are also monitored. If a sensor outputs an impermissible value, this results in
an increase in the fan speed to the maximum value in order to ensure the maximum possible
protection of the hardware.
A failed sensor results in an error message. This is indicated optically by the flashing of the Health
LED on the control panel. In addition, an entry is generated in the BIOS Error Log.
Cover monitoring:
Unauthorised opening of the cover is detected, even when the system is switched off. However, this
will only be indicated when the system is switched on again.
This procedure generates an entry in the BIOS Error Log.

Features
8 - English A26361-D1501-Z120-2-7419
Voltage monitoring:
The operating voltages +5 V, +12 V, 3,3 V, 5 V the auxiliary voltage, the CPU core voltage and the
CMOS-battery are monitored.
If the voltage lies outside the specified tolerances, an error message is generated. This is indicated
optically by the flashing of the Health LED on the control panel. In addition, an entry is generated in
the BIOS Error Log.
Advantages of hardware system monitoring
With hardware monitoring - regardless of the operating system and processor - the advantages
compared to conventional software monitoring are clear:
−suitable for all operating systems and processor types
−no additional load on processor (performance)
−optimum temperature protection, even if process faults or faults are present in the
operating system
−optimum noise reduction
IDE connector
ÊThe system is equipped with two independent ATA/100 interfaces.
The Chip disk is always to be connected on the Primary IDE connector.
The CD-ROM/DVD/CD-RW drive is to be connected on the Secondary IDE connector.
LAN connector
This mainboard has an Intel gigabit LAN controller ( This LAN controller supports the transfer rates
of 10 Mbit/s, 100 Mbit/s and 1 Gbit/s. The LAN controller is equipped with a 3 KB transmission and
receiving buffer (FIFO) and supports WOL function through Magic Packetä.
In addition, Bootix LAN BootP and Intel PXE are also supported (support of systems without hard
disks).
Basic AOL II is also supported. Basic AOL II helps to protect systems against theft or damage.
Basic AOL II can also inform the administrator about hardware faults and software errors.
The LAN RJ45 connector is equipped with a yellow and a green LED (light emitting diode).

SCSI Bus Interface Definitions
SCSI Controller ID
All SCSI devices on one SCSI bus, including the SCSI controller, must be set to separate SCSI
addresses.
The SCSI controller is normally set to ID 7.
You do not normally need to change the SCSI address, not even if you install several SCSI
controllers. In this case each SCSI controller may be assigned address 7, because each is
connected to it’s own SCSI bus.
SCSI Controller Parity
The U320-SCSI controller uses parity bits on the SCSI bus to verify the data transfer from your
SCSI bus (Enabled).
If one of your SCSI devices does not support Parity Checking, disable it on the SCSI controller.
SCSI Controller Termination
The terminating resistors of the SCSI controller must be enabled.
!The default setting is Enabled. The terminating resistor of the SCSI controller is enabled.
With [F6] you can reset to the default setting.
Additional Options
Master SCSI Controller
These settings display from which of the available SCSI controller the BIOS is loaded. As long as
the onboard SCSI controller AIC-7901 is activated, only this one is the master controller.
Boot SCSI Controller
This setting defines from which of the available SCSI controller is booted.
Boot Target ID
The U320-SCSI controller can start the operating system from a drive with any SCSI address (ID).
The default setting is SCSI ID 0. The SCSI ID selected here must correspond to the ID configured
on the boot device.
Boot LUN number
If your boot device has multiple LUNs (Logical Unit Numbers) and Multiple LUN Support is Enabled,
this option allows you to specify which LUN to boot from on your boot device. The default setting is
LUN 0.
