1.3 Special Features

The Basic I/O System (BIOS) provides a setting that determines 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 press the power switch to turn it back on, or for

it to automatically return to the power-on state. See the Advanced BIOS Setup section for

this setting. The default setting is Last State.

The onboard voltage monitor will continuously scan crucial voltage levels. Once a voltage

becomes unstable, a warning is given, or an error message is sent to the screen. The user

can adjust the voltage thresholds to define the sensitivity of the voltage monitor.

The system health monitor chip can check the RPM status of a cooling fan. The fans are

controlled by the BIOS Thermal Management.

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 the thermal sensor detects that

the CPU temperature is too high, it will automatically turn on the thermal fan to prevent the

CPU from overheating. The onboard chassis thermal circuitry can monitor the overall system

temperature and alert the user when the chassis temperature is too high.

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

This feature is available when used with SuperDoctor 5

environment. SuperDoctor is used to notify the user of certain system events. For example,

you can configure SuperDoctor to provide you with warnings when the system temperature,

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