Intel® Server Board S1200SP Family Technical Product Specification
9.4 Management Engine (ME) Firmware Force Update Jumper
(J1F1)
When the ME Firmware Force Update jumper is moved from its default position, the ME is forced to operate in
a reduced minimal operating capacity. This jumper should only be used if the ME firmware has gotten
corrupted and requires re-installation. The following procedure should be followed.
Note: System Update and Recovery files are included in the System Update Packages (SUP) posted to Intel's
website.
1. Turn off the system and remove power cords.
2. Remove Riser Card Assembly #2.
3. Move the ME FRC UPD Jumper from the default (pins 1 and 2) operating position to the Force Update
position (pins 2 and 3).
4. Re-attach system power cords.
5. Power on the system.
Note: System Fans will boost and the BIOS Error Manager should report an 83A0 error code (ME in
recovery mode).
6. Boot to the EFI shell and update the ME firmware using the "MEComplete####.cap" file (where #### =
ME revision number) using the following command: iflash32 /u /ni MEComplete####.cap.
7. When update has successfully completed, power off system.
8. Remove AC power cords.
9. Move ME FRC UPD jumper back to the default position.
Note: If the ME FRC UPD jumper is moved with AC power applied, the ME will not operate properly. The
system will need have the AC power cords removed, wait for at least 10 seconds and then reinstalled to
ensure proper operation.
10. Install PCI Riser.
11. Install AC power cords.
12. Power on system.

9.5 BMC Force Update Jumper (J4B1)

The BMC Force Update jumper is used to put the BMC in Boot Recovery mode for a low-level update.
It is used when the BMC has become corrupted and is non-functional, requiring a new BMC image to be loaded
on to the server board.
1. Turn off the system and remove power cords.
2. Move the BMC FRC UPDT Jumper from the default (pins 1 and 2) operating position to the Force Update
position (pins 2 and 3).
3. Re-attach system power cords.
