Hardware Health Monitor - Supero SuperServer 6016T-MTHF User Manual


Hardware Health
This feature allows the user to monitor system health and review the status of each
item as displayed.
CPU Overheat Alarm
This option allows the user to select the CPU Overheat Alarm setting which de-
termines when the CPU OH alarm will be activated to provide warning of possible
CPU overheat.
Warning! 1.Any temperature that exceeds the CPU threshold temperature predefi ned
by the CPU manufacturer may result in CPU overheat or system instability. When the
CPU temperature reaches this predefi ned threshold, the CPU and system cooling
fans will run at full speed. 2. To avoid possible system overheating, please be sure to
provide adequate airfl ow to your system.
The options are:
•
The Early Alarm: Select this setting to trigger the CPU overheat alarm (including
the LED and the buzzer) as soon as the CPU temperature reaches the CPU
overheat threshold as predefi ned by the CPU manufacturer.
•
The Default Alarm: Select this setting to trigger the CPU overheat alarm (in-
cluding the LED and the buzzer) when the CPU temperature reaches about 5
above the threshold temperature as predefi ned by the CPU manufacturer to give
the CPU and system fans additional time needed for CPU and system cooling.
In both the alarms above, please take immediate action as shown below.
CPU 1Temperature/CPU 2 Temperature/System Temperature
This feature displays current temperature readings for CPU 1, CPU 2, and the
System.
The following items will be displayed for your reference only:
CPU 1 Temperature/CPU 2 Temperature
The CPU Temperature feature will display the CPU temperature status as detected
by the BIOS:
Low – This level is considered as the 'normal' operating state. The CPU temperature
is well below the CPU 'Temperature Tolerance'. The motherboard fans and CPU will
run normally as confi gured in the BIOS (Fan Speed Control).
User intervention: No action required.
Medium – The processor is running warmer. This is a 'precautionary' level and
generally means that there may be factors contributing to this condition, but the CPU
is still within its normal operating state and below the CPU 'Temperature Tolerance'.
