Fan Monitoring; Chassis Intrusion And Detection; Power Management; Acpi - Intel BOXD865GVHZ Technical Product Specification

1.11.3 Fan Monitoring

Fan monitoring can be implemented using Intel
party software. The level of monitoring and control is dependent on the hardware monitoring
ASIC used with the Desktop Board.

The functions of the fan connectors

1.11.4 Chassis Intrusion and Detection

The Desktop Board D865GVHZ supports a chassis security feature that detects if the chassis cover
is removed. The security feature uses a mechanical switch on the chassis that attaches to the
chassis intrusion connector. When the chassis cover is removed, the mechanical switch is in the
closed position.

1.12 Power Management

Power management is implemented at several levels, including:
•
Software support through Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
•
Hardware support:
 Power connector
 Fan connectors
 LAN wake capabilities
 Instantly Available PC technology
 Resume on Ring
 Wake from USB
 Wake from PS/2 devices
 Power Management Event signal (PME#) wake-up support

1.12.1 ACPI

ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug and Play
functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with the Desktop Board D865GVHZ requires an
operating system that provides full ACPI support. ACPI features include:
•
Plug and Play (including bus and device enumeration)
•
Power management control of individual devices, add-in boards (some add-in boards may
require an ACPI-aware driver), video displays, and hard disk drives
•
Methods for achieving less than 15-watt system operation in the power-on/standby
sleeping state
•
A Soft-off feature that enables the operating system to power-off the computer
•
Support for multiple wake-up events (see Table 16 on page 47)
•
Support for a front panel power and sleep mode switch
