D.1 BIOS Default Jumper (BIOS DFLT – J17)
This jumper resets BIOS options, configured using the BIOS Setup utility, back to their original default factory
settings.
Note: This jumper does not reset administrator or user passwords. To reset passwords, the password clear
jumper must be used.
To use the BIOS default jumper, perform the following steps:
1. Power down the Intel® D50TNP Module.
2. Remove the module from the chassis
3. Remove the riser assemblies from the module.
4. Move the "BIOS DFLT" (J17) jumper from pins 1–2 (normal operation) to pins 2–3 (set BIOS defaults).
5. Wait five seconds then move the "BIOS DFLT" (J17) jumper back to pins 1–2.
6. Reinstall the riser assemblies.
7. Reinstall module in the chassis.
Note: The module automatically powers on if AC power is connected to the server chassis.
8. Power on the Intel® D50TNP Module and press <F2> during POST to access the BIOS Setup utility to
configure and save desired BIOS options.
After resetting BIOS options using the BIOS default jumper, the Error Manager Screen in the BIOS Setup
utility displays two errors:
0012 System RTC date/time not set
5220 BIOS Settings reset to default settings
The system time and date will need to be reset.
D.2 Password Clear Jumper (PASSWD_CLR – J12)
This jumper causes both the user password and the administrator password to be cleared if they were set.
The operator should be aware that this condition creates a security gap until passwords have been
configured again through the BIOS Setup utility. This is the only method by which the administrator and user
passwords can be cleared unconditionally. Other than this jumper, passwords can only be set or cleared by
changing them explicitly in BIOS Setup. No method of resetting BIOS configuration settings to default values
affects either the administrator or user passwords.
To use the password clear jumper, perform the following steps:
1. Power down the Intel® D50TNP Module.
2. Remove the module from the chassis
3. Remove the riser assemblies from the module.
4. Move the "PASSWD_CLR" (J12) jumper from pins 1–2 (default) to pins 2–3 (password clear position).
5. Reinstall the riser assemblies
6. Reinstall the module in the chassis.
7. Power on the module and press <F2> during POST to access the BIOS Setup utility.
8. Verify the password clear operation was successful by viewing the Error Manager screen. Two errors
should be logged:
o 5221 Passwords cleared by jumper
o 5224 Password clear jumper is set
