Boot Console Handler

Setting the Fan Speed

Setting the Fan Speed

There are two fan speed settings available on the J6700 workstation. The

RackMount

fan

speed is used for J6700s that are installed in a rack. The

DeskSide

fan speed is used for

J6700s that are used as desk-side systems. These fan speeds are set using the Boot
Console Handler (bch). To set the fan speeds, follow the procedures discussed in this
section.

Rack-Mount Fan Speed

If you currently have a desk-side workstation that you want to convert to a rack-mount
workstation, you need to change the workstation’s fan speed. To do this, follow this
procedure:

1. Turn on the workstation and press the

Tab

key until a select display message appears.

Select the display frequency and resolution that are best for your workstation.

2. Stop the boot process by pressing any key before the ten-second limit. This gets you to

the Boot Console Handler’s (bch) Main Menu. You will only need to do this if you have

autoboot

turned on; otherwise, the system stops at the bch Main Menu. When the

Main Menu prompt appears, type:

Main Menu: Enter command > configuration

3. Enter the following command at the Configuration Menu prompt:

Configuration Menu: Enter command > FanChoice RackMount

4. Return to the Main Menu and enter this command at the prompt to continue booting:

Main Menu: Enter command > boot

Desk-Side Fan Speed

If you currently have a rack-mount workstation that you want to convert to a desk-side
workstation, you need to change the workstation’s fan speed. To do this, follow this
procedure:

1. Turn on the workstation and press the

Tab

key until a select display message appears.

Select the display frequency and resolution that are best for your workstation.

2. Stop the boot process by pressing any key before the ten-second limit. This gets you to

the Boot Console Handler’s (bch) Main Menu. You will only need to do this if you have

autoboot

turned on; otherwise, the system stops at the bch Main Menu. When the

Main Menu prompt appears, type:

Main Menu: Enter command > configuration
