FM810 Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.14 System management The FM810 motherboard includes hardware system management functions integrated into the National Semiconductor PC87366 Super I/O (SIO) device. They monitor system voltages, motherboard and CPU temperatures, fan speed and control system fans. The following sections describe this in more detail.
FM810 Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.14.2 Temperature Monitoring There are two temperature sensors on the motherboard. The first measures the motherboard temperature. Since the sensor is contained within the SIO, this will be a localized reading dominated by the motherboard surface temperature around the SIO component. The second temperature sensor is located on the processor die and thus accurately measures the local die temperature.
FM810 Endura Motherboard Product Manual 2.15.1 ACPI Power States An ACPI-aware operating system directs the power management of the motherboard – causing the various devices within the system to change power state as appropriate.

FM810 Endura Motherboard Product Manual 4 Motherboard BIOS Configuration The motherboard BIOS includes a setup utility that can be used to both view and modify the board’s configuration. The settings are stored in CMOS RAM with the default settings held in the flash ROM.
BIOS ROM (as a result of an interrupted update, for example) to be repaired. Updates are available online from the RadiSys site in the form of a compressed image (ZIP) of a number of files. Using the software contained in the ZIP file, you must first create a flash diskette that is then used for the update or recovery process.
Follow the steps below. You need a PC with Microsoft MS-DOS, Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows NT and a blank diskette. 1. Obtain the update ZIP file from the Manuals, Drivers & BIOS section on the RadiSys web site, www.radisys.com.
BIOS OEM kit ZIP file that can be obtained from the Manuals, Drivers & BIOS section on the RadiSys web site, www.radisys.com. The ‘Readme.txt’ file also contained in this ZIP provides updated customization information and should be read before proceeding.
FM810 Endura Motherboard Product Manual BIOS Error Indications Once the motherboard powers-up the BIOS code runs Power-On-Self-Test software to check that the motherboard is operating correctly. During this process, the code writes an 8-bit value to an error port at various code checkpoints. If a fatal error is determined, then the error code indicates the last successful checkpoint reached.
