General Procedure to Change Switch Settings

1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of Chapter 5 (page 93).
2. Turn off all connected peripherals and turn off system power.
3. Remove the PCI hot-plug cover. You do not need to remove the I/O carrier from the chassis.
Due to the location of the switch block, an add-in card populated in slot 3 may need to be
removed.
4. Refer to Figure 56 on page 173 for Switch SW4G1 location. In the figure, the switch is
located to the left and slightly below the PCI Slot number 3 on the I/O board. When you are
looking at the actual system, the board will be turned 90 degrees, and the switch will be
located to the right and slightly below PCI Slot number 3 on the I/O board. A diagram of the
switch configuration is also located on the underside of the PCI hot-plug cover.
5. The switch block is shown with all switches in the open or disabled position by default.
6. Move the individual switch for the desired setting.
7. Power on the system for the change to take effect.
8. Return the switch to its' default position after the desired operation is complete.

CMOS Clear Switch

1. Ensure that the system is powered off. Remove the PCI hot-plug cover. On switch SW4G1,
slide or press switch number 5 to the right most position.
2. Power on the system. Wait for POST to complete and for the messages "NVRAM cleared by
jumper" and "Press F2 to enter Setup" to appear. This automatically reprograms CMOS to the
default settings, except for the password.
3. Enter Setup and make any changes necessary (for example, changing the boot device). Press
F10 to save the new Setup configuration and exit Setup.
4. Power off the system.
5. Return switch position 5 to the left most (default) position.
6. Reinstall the PCI hot-plug cover using the original screws, power on the system, and resume
normal operation.
7. Run BIOS Setup or the SSU to verify the correct settings. See Chapter 3.
