Special Features - Viglen Vig410p Manual

Motherboard Features

Special Features:

 Recovery from AC Power Loss
BIOS provides a setting for you to determine how the system will respond when AC
power is lost and then restored to the system. You can choose for the system to
remain powered off (in which case you must hit the power switch to turn it back on)
or for it to automatically return to a power- on state. See the Power Lost Control
setting in the Advanced BIOS Setup section (Boot Features) to change this setting.
The default setting is Last State.
PC Health Monitoring:
This section describes the PC health monitoring features of the Vig410P. All have an
onboard System Hardware Monitor chip that supports PC health monitoring via
Super Doctor II or III. An onboard voltage monitor will scan these onboard voltages
continuously: Vcore1, Vcore2, 1.5V, 5VDD, 5VSB, 12V, -12V, 3.3Vcc, 3.3VSB,
VBAT and Vtt. Once a voltage becomes unstable, a warning is given or an error
message is sent to the screen. Users can adjust the voltage thresholds to define the
sensitivity of the voltage monitor.
 Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Control
The PC health monitor can check the RPM status of the cooling fans. The onboard
CPU and chassis fans are controlled by Thermal Management via BIOS (under
Hardware Monitoring in the Advanced Setting).
 Environment Temperature Control
The thermal control sensor monitors the CPU temperature in real time and will turn
on the thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature exceeds a user-defined
threshold. The overheat circuitry runs independently from the CPU. Once it detects
that the CPU temperature is too high, it will automatically turn on the thermal fan
control to prevent any overheat damage to the CPU. The onboard chassis thermal
circuitry can monitor the overall system temperature and alert users when the
chassis temperature is too high.
 System Resource Alert
This feature is available when used with Super Doctor III in the Windows OS
environment or used with Super Doctor II in Linux. Super Doctor is used to notify the
user of certain system events. For example, you can also configure Super Doctor to
provide you with warnings when the system temperature, CPU temperatures,
voltages and fan speeds go beyond a pre-defined range.
