X6DAR-8G/X6DAR-iG User's Manual

SCSI Enable/Disable
(*X6DAR-8G Only)

Jumper JPA1 allows you to enable

or disable the SCSI Controller.   The

default setting is pins 1-2 to enable

all four headers.  See the table on

the right for jumper settings.

Watch Dog

JWD controls Watch Dog, a system

monitor that takes action when a

software application freezes the

system.  Pins 1-2 will have WD re-

s e t   t h e   s y s t e m   i f   a   p r o g r a m

freezes.  Pins 2-3 will generate a

non-maskable interrupt for the pro-

gram that has frozen (requires soft-

ware implementation).  Watch Dog

must also be enabled in BIOS.
