Environmentally friendly product design and development  
This product has been designed in accordance with standards for ”environmen-  
tally friendly product design and development“. This means that the designers  
have taken into account important criteria such as durability, selection of  
materials and coding, emissions, packaging, the ease with which the product  
can be dismantled and the extent to which it can be recycled.  
This saves resources and thus reduces the harm done to the environment.  
Notes on saving energy  
Devices that do not have to be on permanently should not be switched on until  
they need to be used and should be switched off during long breaks and on  
completion of work.  
Notes on packaging  
Please do not throw away the packaging. We recommend that you do not throw  
away the original packaging in case you need it later for transporting.  
Notes on dealing with consumables

PCI, PCI-X, PCI Express interrupts  
Each device connected to a PCI bus or PCI Express can use up to four interrupt  
signals depending on the functionality.  
PCI and PCI-X buses use four lines named INTA to INTD, typically connected  
to all devices on the bus in order to periodically balance interrupt load. An  
interrupt signal may thereby be used simultaneously by multiple devices  
(interrupt sharing).  
PCI Express devices send their interrupts through messages. The interrupts are  
defined by the system design.

Temperature / system monitoring  
Temperature and system monitoring aim to reliably protect the computer  
hardware against damage and to provide any information about the system  
status.  
Temperature and system monitoring is managed via an onboard controller.  
The following functions are supported:  
Temperature monitoring  
Measurement of the processor and the system board internal temperature by a  
temperature sensor, measurement of the ambient temperature by a I2C temper-  
ature sensor.  
Fan speed monitoring  
The CPU, power supply unit and system fans are monitored. Fans that are no  
longer available, blocked or sticky fans are detected.  
D2529 (TX300 S4)  
Technical Manual  
23  
   
Temperature / system monitoring  
Features  
Fan speed control  
The fan speed is controlled according to temperature.  
The criteria are the ambient temperature, the CPU temperature, and the  
memory temperature.  
Sensor monitoring  
If the I2C temperature sensor is defect or missing, all fans monitored by this  
sensor, run with maximum speed to achieve the greatest possible protection of  
the hardware.  
Voltage monitoring (of the internal voltages)  
If one of the internal voltages reaches its upper or lower threshold an alarm is  
generated.  
Cover monitoring  
Unauthorized opening of the cover is detected, even when the system is  
switched off (power down mode). However, this will only be indicated when the  
system is switched on again.  
System Event Log (SEL)  
All monitored events of the system board are signalized via the Global Error  
LED and recorded in the System Event Log. They could be retrieved in the BIOS  
Setup or via ServerView.  
PRIMERGY Diagnostic LEDs  
LEDs on the system board enable to identify defective modules and compo-  
nents as well as gaining information on the PDA.

LAN connectors  
The system board is populated with three LAN controllers.  
2 Gigabit LAN controllers (BCM5708) for system LAN 1 and system LAN 2  
System LAN 1 and system LAN 2 support:  
transfer rates of 10 Mbit/s, 100 Mbit/s and 1 Gbit/s  
WOL function through Magic Packet™  
Intel PXE. It is possible to boot tehe system without its own boot hard disk  
via LAN.  
In addition system LAN 1 can be used as shared service LAN.  
1 dedicated service LAN controller  
supports the transfer rates of 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s  
serves as management interface  
is prepared for RemoteView  
The LAN connectors are equipped each with two LEDs (light emitting diode)  
indicating the transfer rate and the activity.

Recovering System BIOS (recovery switch) - switch 1  
Switch 1 enables recovery of the old system BIOS after an attempt to update  
has failed. To restore the old system BIOS you need a Flash BIOS medium  
(please call our customer service centre).  
on  
off  
The system boots from the Flash BIOS medium (floppy disk, DVD/CD-  
ROM, USB sstick) and reprograms the system BIOS on the board.  
The System BIOS is started with the system BIOS from the system board  
(default setting).

Replacing the lithium battery  
In order to save the system information permanently, a lithium battery is  
installed to provide the CMOS-memory with a current. When the charge is too  
low or the battery is empty, a corresponding error message is provided. The  
lithium battery must then be replaced.  
V
CAUTION!  
The lithium battery must be replaced with an identical battery or a battery  
type recommended by the manufacturer (CR2450).  
Do not throw lithium batteries into the trash can. It must be disposed of  
in accordance with local regulations concerning special waste.  
Make sure that you insert the battery the right way round. The plus pole  
must be on the top!
