1-5 ACPI Features
ACPI stands for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface. The ACPI specifica
-
tion defines a flexible and abstract hardware interface that provides a standard
way to integrate power management features throughout a PC system, including
its hardware, operating system and application software. This enables the system
to automatically turn on and off peripherals such as CD-ROMs, network cards, hard
disk drives and printers.
In addition to operating system-directed power management, ACPI also provides
a generic system event mechanism for Plug and Play, and an operating system-
independent interface for configuration control. ACPI leverages the Plug and Play
BIOS data structures, while providing a processor architecture-independent imple-
mentation that is compatible with Windows 2008/R2, Windows 2012/R2, and Linux
Operating Systems.
Slow Blinking LED for Suspend-State Indicator
When the CPU goes into a suspend state, the chassis power LED will start blinking
to indicate that the CPU is in suspend mode. When the user presses any key, the
CPU will "wake up," and the LED will automatically stop blinking and remain on.
1-6 Power Supply
As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and
reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU
clock rates.
The X10DRU-i+ motherboard accommodates the following power configurations:
•
Two (2) SMCI-proprietary main power supply units (PSU1: for CPU1 platform
support, PSU2: for CPU2 platform support)
•
Four (4) 8-pin power-connectors in two power-connector units (with two 8-pin
power connectors in each unit: BP PWR1/2) for Backplane HDD power use.
(BP PWR1: for CPU1 platform support, BP PWR2: for CPU2 platform support)
•
Four (4) 8-pin power-connectors (GPU PWR1-4) used for GPU devices
•
One (1) 4-pin power connector (JF2) used for HDD devices
In areas where noisy power transmission is present, you may choose to install a
line filter to shield the computer from noise. It is recommended that you also install
a power surge protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.
Warning!
To provide adequate power to your system and to avoid damaging the power
supply or the motherboard, be sure to connect all power connectors mentioned above
to the power supply. Failure in doing so may void the manufacturer warranty on your
power supply and motherboard.
