Chassis Intrusion
Note: The intrusion supervision feature needs to be enabled in BIOS Setup first (Menu „Security“  „Cabinet Monitoring“).
This BIOS option is only available if pin 3 („Intrusion Switch Present“) is connected to GND!

Intrusion Connector
Break Contact
Contact closed  Chassis is open
Contact open  Chassis is closed
Chassis intrusion is active even if the system is switched off (S5
state) or disconnected from mains power.
The intrusion event is monitored by the Southbridge (ICH) and
stored in the BIOS Eventlog during the next Boot.
A timestamp (Boot date/time) will be added then.
Note: This timestamp does not represent date/time of the intrusion
event!
If a Supervisor Password is enabled in BIOS Setup, the system will
stop during BIOS POST if an intrusion event has been detected. In
order to continue, the Supervisor Password must be entered to
confirm the intrusion event.
Note:
- A Windows API to monitor the intrusion event is available
- The intrusion event is transmitted via LAN ASF and can be
monitored remotely by an appropriate ASF application

Voltage Guard
Onboard Voltage Supervision (Voltage Guard)
Jumper removed = Supervision Enabled
In this case, all major onboard voltages are monitored by hardware comparators.
If any voltage is out of range a system reset will be generated and the power supply (PSON) will be switched
off.
The system can be switched on again after AC power has been removed for several seconds.

Northbridge Sensor
Sensor / Fan Matrix
• Indicates which sensor
influences the specific fan speed
• Note: Characteristics for FAN1
is always dependent on the CPU
temperature – fully controlled by
the system BIOS.
Due to safety reasons the influence
of the CPU sensor for FAN1 cannot
be disabled, but Sensor1 and / or
Sensor2 can be activated in addition!
1) Note: As Intel has replaced the analogue
processor „diode“ temperature measurement
by the digital „PECI“ measurement (Platform
Environment Control Interface) which does
no longer provide the absolute processor
temperature, SystemGuard can only display
the processor´s temperature range.
All relevant System Monitoring parameters can be
customized via SilentFanConfig-Tool!

• Use SilentFanConfig to adjust the required settings.
• As result, SilentFanConfig creates a BIOS configuration file.
Save file as "smco.in“
• Afterwards the “smco.in”-file needs to be flashed into the system
BIOS by the DOS-tool "SMCO“:
Copy smco.exe and smco.in to a DOS boot medium (USB-stick
or USB- floppy or harddisk with DOS), boot on target platform and
run following operation: smco smco.in
• New settings are written permanently to system BIOS
• Any BIOS update or BIOS Recovery will not reset the new settings
Note: SilentFanConfig V1.5 or higher required for D283x-S

Note: The +12V supply (up to 12A) for processor and chipset is provided via the
4 pin connector! Onboard voltage regulators convert the +12V input power
to the appropriate processor / chipset supply voltages.
(3) Processor Core Voltage Regulator: High Effciency Design (= 85% @ 65W)
for enhanced power saving and less thermal dissipation loss.
Requirements for ATX Power Supply
1) The ATX power supply should support the minimum
load conditions as mentioned in the chart.
If the new C3/C4 processor power states are used, the
minimum load for +12V will be reduced to 0.1A!

Miscellaneous
Additional Notes & Possible Restrictions
• Harddisk Password
The current system BIOS doesn´t support the HDD password in AHCI- and RAID-mode
Full HDD password support will be offered by BIOS > R1.02
• BIOS Recovery
AC mains power needs to be unplugged before and after a BIOS Recovery
• Boot from USB Stick or USB HDD
If the BIOS Setup option “Force USB Stick Boot” is enabled, the system will only boot from (any)
USB Stick or USB HDD. All other devices will be excluded from the “Boot priority order”.
This feature can be used to enable automatic updates whenever an appropriate USB Stick
or USB HDD is attached before system boot.
The default setting is “disabled”

Additional Notes & Possible Restrictions
• LAN LEDs
The rear LAN LED's are off in ACPI system states S3 - S5 (Limitation of Realtek LAN controller)
• BIONVD Tool (Change BIOS Setup Defaults)
Some BIOS Setup parameters can’t be fixed via BIONVD tool.
An updated toolset supporting all parameters is expected for BIOS > R1.02
• Enhanced Idle Power State
The system BIOS provides support for the latest C3/C4 processor power saving modes
(“Enhanced Idle Power State” = disabled in BIOS Setup by default!).
Usage of C3/C4 requires appropriate support of the power supply (e.g. min. load 0.1A@+12V)
Note: If C3/C4 support is enabled, the PCI performance may be reduced!

System Watchdog
D283x-S provides an independent HW Watchdog
(integrated in System Management Controller)

SystemGuard provides the trigger for the Watchdog
within the specified schedule.
If Windows “hangs”, the Watchdog will force the system
to reboot.
- Via Windows-based API:
