Scout monitors its own internal temperature and voltage values. Operating at too high or
too low of these values can result in decreasing Scout’s performance or turning Scout off.
Extreme operating conditions could further result in damaging Scout.
The best precaution against environmental damage to Scout is to properly install and
operate the unit. When mounted in a rack at least 1RU spacing should be provided on
both Scout’s top and bottom. Installations with unstable or questionable power sources
should use back up generators. In all cases the use of filtered power supplies is strongly
recommended.
Scout contains one internal fan which is designed to activate at temperatures higher than
those that can result in damage to Scout. The use of temperature controlled activation
also contributes to extending fan life as it doesn’t have to operator under proper
temperature conditions.
When these warning levels are reached, Scout will issue email alerts to the address
programmed in Global Settings.
Scout will trigger an internal alarm when any of the following conditions exist:
CPU I/O voltage is less than 2.250 volts or greater than 2.750 volts.
CPU core voltage is less than 1.170 volts or greater than 1.430 volts.
CPU voltage supply is less than 2.970 volts or greater than 3.630 volts.
Main Voltage Supply is less than 4.5 volts or greater than 5.5 volts.
Power Supply temperature is less than -25C or greater than +59C.
Airflow temperature is less than -27C or greater than +54C.
CPU temperature is less than -16C or greater than +60C.
Scout contains an internal fan which turns on when any of the three internal temperature
exceeds its upper limits. These temperatures are:
Power Supply Temperature >+59C
Airflow Temperature >+54C
CPU Temperature
>+60C
