About Your System

Solving Problems Described by LCD Status Messages

The code and text on the LCD can often specify a very precise fault condition
that is easily corrected. For example, if the code
E0708

PROC_1_Presence

appears, you know that a microprocessor is

not installed in socket 1.

In contrast, you might be able to determine the problem if multiple related
errors occur. For example, if you receive a series of messages indicating
multiple voltage faults, you might determine that the problem is a failing
power supply.

Removing LCD Status Messages

For faults associated with sensors, such as temperature, voltage, fans, and so
on, the LCD message is automatically removed when that sensor returns to a
normal state. For example, if temperature for a component goes out of range,
the LCD displays the fault; when the temperature returns to the acceptable
range, the message is removed from the LCD. For other faults, you must take
action to remove the message from the display:

Clear the SEL — You can perform this task remotely, but you will lose
the event history for the system.

Power cycle — Turn off the system and disconnect it from the electrical
outlet; wait approximately ten seconds, reconnect the power cable, and
restart the system.
