The BIOS Flash utility allows customers to update the

copying the configuration from the flash chip to a file on
the users’ disk. The BIOS Flash utility also features a com -

Embedded Security ID
Embedded applications are the most important responsibil -
ities for system integrators because they contain valuable

and are easily copied. This Embedded Security ID utility
offers reliable security functions that allow users to secure
application data within embedded BIOS.
Monitoring
The Monitoring API is a utility that allows users to monitor
the system health indicators, such as voltage, CPU and
system temperature, and fan speed. These system values
are crucial. If critical errors occur and are not solved imme -
diately, permanent damage to the device may result.
