CPU Overheat Alarm
Caution
Any temperature that exceeds the CPU threshold temperature the CPU
manufacturer predefines may result in CPU overheating or system instability. When the
CPU temperature reaches this predefined threshold, the CPU and system cooling fans run
at full speed. To avoid possible system overheating, be sure to provide adequate airflow to
your system.
Use this option to select the CPU Overheat Alarm setting, which
determines when the CPU OH alarm is activated to warn of possible CPU
overheating.
The options are:
•
Early Alarm
—Select this setting for the CPU overheat alarm
(including the LED and the buzzer) to be triggered as soon as the CPU
temperature reaches the CPU overheat threshold, as the CPU
manufacturer predefines.
•
Default Alarm
—Select this setting for the CPU overheat alarm
(including the LED and the buzzer) to be triggered when the CPU
temperature reaches about 5 ºC above the threshold temperature, as the
CPU manufacturer predefines, to give the CPU and system fans
additional time needed for CPU and system cooling. For both alarms,
take immediate action as described below.
