Settings Installation and initial operation
Temperature/system monitoring
Temperature and system monitoring aim to reliably protect the computer
hardware against damage caused by overheating. In addition, any unnecessary
noise is also prevented by reducing the fan speed, and information is provided
about the system status. Intrusion detection protects the system from opening.
The following functions are supported:
Temperature monitoring
Measurement of the processor temperature, measurement of the system
temperature with two onboard temperature sensors, measurement of the
ambient temperature with an external temperature sensor.
Fan monitoring
Fans that are no longer available, blocked or sticking fans are detected.
Sensor monitoring
The removal of, or a fault in, a temperature sensor is detected. Should this
happen all fans monitored by this sensor run at maximum speed, to achieve the
greatest possible protection of the hardware.
Intrusion detection
Opening of the cover is detected, even when the system is switched off (5V
standby voltage is required) . However, this will only be indicated when the
system is switched on again.
