Idrac Settings Utility - Dell SD7000-S Owner's Manual

Miscellaneous Settings details
The Miscellaneous Settings screen details are explained as follows:
Option Description
System Time Enables you to set the time on the system.
System Date Enables you to set the date on the system.
Asset Tag Specifies the asset tag and enables you to modify it for security and tracking
purposes.
Keyboard Enables you to set whether the system boots with the NumLock enabled or
NumLock disabled. This option is set to On by default.
F1/F2 Prompt on Enables or disables the F1/F2 prompt on error. This option is set to Enabled by
Error default. The F1/F2 prompt also includes keyboard errors.
Load Legacy Enables you to determine whether the system BIOS loads the legacy video (INT
Video Option 10H) option ROM from the video controller. Selecting Enabled in the operating
ROM system does not support UEFI video output standards. This field is available only for
UEFI boot mode. You cannot set the option to Enabled if UEFI Secure Boot mode
is enabled.
In-System Enables or disables In-System Characterization. This option is set to Disabled by
Characterization default. The two other options are Enabled and Enabled - No Reboot.
When enabled, In-System Characterization (ISC) executes during POST upon
detecting relevant change(s) in system configuration to optimize system power and
performance. ISC takes about 20 seconds to execute, and system reset is needed
for ISC results to be applied. The Enabled - No Reboot option executes ISC and
continues without applying ISC results until the next time system reset occurs. The
Enabled option executes ISC and forces an immediate system reset so that ISC
results can be applied. It takes the system longer to be ready due to the forced
system reset. When disabled, ISC does not execute.
