Note: Fan speed is controlled by adjusting fan voltage based on sensed system temperature. Fan voltage
adjusts from 6V min (25deg C or lower) at 50% to 12V max (50deg C or higher) at 100%. Fan voltage is
the same for all fans.
Status: PWR OFF is 0V at 00%; system is in standby.
Status: Running aaV at pp%; fan is good; aa = fan voltage and pp = fan power percent (%).
Status: STOPPED is 12V at 100%; fan fault: fan voltage is set to full on.
Status: NO FAN aaV at pp%; Xpander can be configured with 1, 2, 3 or 4 fans. No fan means fan
is not installed.
PCIe Link Status
Menu Sub-menu Sub-menu Sub-menu
Menu: PCIe Link Status
Sub-Menu: Indicates x16 PCIe cable installation status
• Connected x16 cable is properly connected to the HIC
• NOT-Connected x16 cable is not properly connected to the HIC
Sub-Menu: x16 PCIe cable link speed and link width. Speed and width depend on the host capability.
• Speed: 2.5Gb/s, 5.0Gb/s or 8.0Gb/s
• Width: x1, x2, x4, x8, x16 and “NO Link” when the host did not successfully link or Xpander is
in standby power.
Sub-Menu: Link speed and link width for slots 1-4.
• Speed: 2.5Gb/s, 5.0Gb/s or 8.0Gb/s
• Slot 1 - 4 width: x1, x2, x4, x8, and “NO Link” when the slot is empty, unsuccessful link, or
Xpander is in standby power.

Fan Speed Control
Shunts JP7 and JP8 are used to change the fan profile to reduce fan noise. For both JP7 and
JP8, pin 1 is farthest from the board edge and pin 3 is closest to the board edge.
* Tmax - Fan Voltage ~12V, Tmin - Fan Voltage ~6V
**GPU Mode: Tmax: GPU temp = 80C, if no GPU is found Tmax = 40C (on-board temp sensors)
Tmin: GPU temp = 45C, if no GPU is found Tmin = 5C (on-board temp sensors)
GPUs supported: Quadro K6000, M6000 and P6000
Fan Profile Guidelines. GPU Mode supports 4 x double-wide GPUs like NVIDIA Quadro or GTX
Series. High-Performance Mode supports 2 – 3 double-wide GPUs. Performance Mode
supports 2 x double-wide GPUs. Quiet Mode supports 1 x double-wide GPU or 4 x single-wide
GPUs. See Technical Specifications on page 2.
