Watch Dog Enable/Disable
J31 controls Watch Dog, a system
monitor that takes action when a soft-
ware application freezes the system.
Jumping pins 1-2 will have WD reset
the system if a program freezes.
Jumping pins 2-3 will generate a non-
maskable interrupt for the program
that has frozen (requires software
implementation). Watch Dog must
also be enabled in BIOS.

Power Fail Alarm Enable/
Disable
The system will notify you in the
event of a power supply failure. This
feature assumes that redundant
Supermicro power supply units are
installed in the chassis. If you only
have a single power supply installed,
you should disable this (the default
setting) with CN5 to prevent false
alarms. See the table on the right for
jumper settings.
