APOLLO 1U ICE

Internal configuration

Tamper detect switch

The tamper detect feature is triggered by the opening and closing of the lid. It is

affected by a switch mounted on the PCI module:

Tamper

detect

switch

A tamper detection input is included within the real time clock circuitry of the APOLLO

that operates in all power modes. The status of the tamper detection bit is battery

backed in static RAM. Using a normally open switch, a tamper is detected when the

switch contacts close.

The BIOS security setup screen provides two options for enabling a case open

warning. It also provides a secure chassis mode that requires the supervisor password

to be entered and the chassis intrusion detection to be disabled before the board will

boot to an operating system. Both options are disabled by default; refer to the APOLLO

Technical Manual for details.
