1.3.2 Value-added solutions
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASUS ASIC to prevent
overheating and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM) is
monitored for timely failure detection. The system voltage levels are
monitored to ensure stable supply of current for critical components.
Dual function power switch
While the system is ON, pressing the power switch for less than 4 seconds
puts the system to sleep mode or to soft-off mode, depending on the BIOS
setting. Pressing the power switch for more than 4 seconds lets the
system enter the soft-off mode regardless of the BIOS setting.
Remote Ring In
This feature allows the system to wake up remotely through an internal or
external modem, if present.
Wake-Up support
The motherboard includes Wake-On-LAN, Wake-On-Ring, and BIOS
Wake-Up features.
Server management
The motherboard comes with an ASMC connector that supports the
optional ASMC-HE/ME/LE card to comply with server reliability, availability,
and serviceability requirements. Remote management response via
remote diagnostics and troubleshooting still works even when the
operating system has stopped functioning.
ACPI ready
The Advanced Configuration power Interface (ACPI) provides more energy
saving features for operating systems that support OS Direct Power
Management (OSPM).
Concurrent PCI
This feature allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master buses to the
memory and processor.
