Thanks Salem,
The steps that you suggested have already been actioned
The firmware components are being reported as listed in your reply in the BIOS screen, the Web console and sysinfo_log.txt.
The chassis is closed and the intrusion switch has been confirmed to be working.
I make the following observations based on the limited data (I'm trying to get a system out to a client, not perform thermal testing) and information (Intel don't supply much about thermal management at this level ie sdr file) I have.
- Fan speed is just directly linked to the fount panel temperature by way of the following
CPU domain 0 Stepwise Curve ID 1A
Chassis domain 1 Stepwise Curve ID 1C
- Exit air temperature is not measured. There seams to be no exit air temp sensor (2E) on the board!
- Agg Thrm Mgn 1
Uses sensor 2E
Generates what looks like erroneous data
Don't appear to be used in temp control
- Significant changes have occurred in the thermal management through the development of the boards firmware.
My conclusion which I freely admit could be wrong is :- The sdr file (1200RP.sdr) included in firmware 02.02.0005 is of the "get you home" type with limited function and conservative settings.
I'm trying to work out what is my next step. Information would be nice though.
Again thanks for you reply Salem.
