Emergency Management Port Console C-15
Sensor Type Codes
The Sensor Type Code Table provides information regarding:
! The type of sensor generating the SEL entry
! The name of the sensor
! The microcontroller which initiated the SEL entry
! The warning or error which initiated the SEL entry.
Using the Sensor Type Code Table
Compare the Sensor Type and Number message shown in the SEL viewer display
(above) to the Sensor Type/Number in Verbose column in the table below. Using
information in the Sensor Name column in the table you can determine the physical
component which generated the SEL message. The Generator ID column in the table
identifies the microcontroller which reported the event to the SEL. Detailed information
regarding the event is available from the Event Description column in the SEL Viewer.
For example, if there is a Fan #10 entry in the Sensor Type and Number column of the
SEL Viewer, by looking at the Sensor type Codes table you can determine that the
Baseboard Fan 1 caused this entry. The entry was reported through the Baseboard
Management Controller (BMC) on the system board.
