Appendix A
1. Temperature sensor locations
Sensors monitor temperature values at different locations in the APC620 (inside CPU, CPU
board, power supply, slide-in drive 1, slide-in drive 2, I/O). The temperatures
1)
can be read out
in the BIOS (menu item Advanced - Baseboard/Panel Features - Baseboard Monitor) or via the
B&R Control Center
2)
using Microsoft Windows XP/Embedded and Embedded Standard 2009.
1) The measured temperature is a guideline for the immediate ambient temperature, but can be influenced by neighboring components.
2) The B&R Control Center - ADI driver - can be downloaded for free from the download area on the B&R homepage (www.br-
automation.com).
