4.4.4  Power Supply Temperature Sensors 
The BMC monitors one or two power supply temperature sensors for each installed PMBus*-compliant power supply. 
Table 26: Power Supply Temperature Sensors Typical Characteristics 
5Ch = Power Supply 1 Temperature 
5Dh = Power Supply 2 Temperature 
Event Direction and 
Event Type 
[7] Event direction 
0b = Assertion Event 
1b = Deassertion Event 
[6:0] Event Type = 01h (Threshold) 
[7:6] – 01b = Trigger reading in Event Data 2 
[5:4] – 01b = Trigger threshold in Event Data 3 
[3:0] – Event Trigger Offset as described in Table 27 
Reading that triggered event 
Threshold value that triggered event 
The following table describes the severity of each of the event triggers for both assertion and deassertion. 
Table 27: Power Supply Temperature Sensor – Event Trigger Offset – Next Steps 
Upper non-critical 
going high 
An upper non-critical or 
critical temperature 
threshold has been 
crossed. 
1.  Check for clear and unobstructed airflow into and out of the chassis. 
2.  Ensure SDR is programmed and correct chassis has been selected. 
3.  Ensure there are no fan failures. 
4.  Ensure the air used to cool the system is within the thermal 
specifications for the system (typically below 35°C).
