2.6.5 System Fan Connector

The system fan connector (J9) is used to connect a cooling fan.
The cooling fan will provide adequate airflow throughout the
chassis to prevent overheating the CPU and system board com-
ponents. The system is capable of monitoring the speed of the
system fan.

BIOS Setting

The “PC Health Status” submenu of the BIOS will display the
current speed of the system fan. Refer to chapter 3 for more
information.
