1-3 Special Features
Recovery from AC Power Loss
The feature allows the user to set the power state after a power outage. You can
select Power-Off for the system power to remain off after a power loss. Select
Power-On for the system power to be turned on after a power loss. Select Last
State to allow the system to resume its last state before the power loss. The default
setting is Last State.
1-4 PC Health Monitoring
This section describes the PC health monitoring features of the SUPER X6QT8
/X6QTE+. It has an onboard System Hardware Monitor chip that supports PC
health monitoring.
Onboard Voltage Monitors for the CPU Cores, +3.3V, +5V, +12V,
-12V and +3.3V Standby
An onboard voltage monitor will scan these voltages continuously. Once a voltage
becomes unstable, a warning is given or an error message is sent to the screen.
Users can adjust the voltage thresholds (via Supero Doctor III) to defi ne the sen-
sitivity of the voltage monitor.
Fan Status Monitor with Fan Speed Control
The PC health monitor can check the RPM status of the cooling fans. The onboard
CPU and chassis fans are controlled by Thermal Management via BIOS.
Environmental Temperature Control
The thermal control sensor monitors the CPU temperature in real time and will turn
on the thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature exceeds a user-defi ned
threshold. The overheat circuitry runs independently from the CPU. It can continue
to monitor for overheat conditions even when the CPU is in sleep mode. Once it
detects that the CPU temperature is too high, it will automatically turn on the ther-
mal control fan to prevent any overheat damage to the CPU. The onboard chassis
thermal circuitry can monitor the overall system temperature and alert users when
the chassis temperature is too high.
CPU Overheat LED and Control
This feature is available when the user enables the CPU overheat warning function
in the BIOS. This allows the user to defi ne an overheat temperature.
