1.4a System Health Monitoring (X11SCZ-Q)

This section describes the health monitoring features of the X11SCZ-Q motherboard. The

motherboard supports system health monitoring through the Super I/O.

The onboard voltage monitor will continuously scan crucial voltage levels. Real time readings

of these voltage levels are all displayed in BIOS.

The system health monitor chip can check the RPM status of a cooling fan. The CPU and

chassis fans are controlled by the BIOS Thermal Management.

The thermal control sensor monitors the CPU temperature in real time and will enable the

thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature exceeds a user-defined threshold. The

overheat circuitry runs independently from the CPU. Once the thermal sensor detects that

the CPU temperature is too high, it will automatically adjust the fan RPM to prevent the CPU

from overheating.

Note: To avoid possible system overheating, please provide adequate airflow to your

system.

This feature is available when used with SuperDoctor 5 in the Windows operating system or

in the Linux environment. SuperDoctor 5 is used to notify the user of certain system events.

For example, you can configure SuperDoctor 5 to provide you with warnings when the system

temperature, CPU temperatures, voltages and fan speeds go beyond a predefined range.
