SUPERSERVER 5017P-TLN4F/TF User's Manual
Console Redirection Settings (for EMS)
This feature allows the user to specify how the host computer will exchange
data with the client computer, which is the remote computer used by the user.
Out-of-Band-Mgmt Port
Use this feature to select the port for out-of-band management. The options are
COM1, COM2, and SOL.
Terminal Type
This feature allows the user to select the target terminal emulation type for Con-
sole Redirection. Select VT100 to use the ASCII character set. Select VT100+
to add color and function key support. Select ANSI to use the extended ASCII
character set. Select VT-UTF8 to use UTF8 encoding to map Unicode characters
into one or more bytes. The options are ANSI, VT100, VT100+, and VT-UTF8.
Bits Per Second
This item sets the transmission speed for a serial port used in Console Redirec-
tion. Make sure that the same speed is used in the host computer and the client
computer. A lower transmission speed may be required for long and busy lines.
The options are 9600, 19200, 57600, and 115200 (bits per second).
Flow Control
This feature allows the user to set the ow control for Console Redirection to
prevent data loss caused by buffer overow. Send a "Stop" signal to stop send-
ing data when the receiving buffer is full. Send a "Start" signal to start sending
data when the receiving buffer is empty. The options are None, Hardware RTS/
CTS, and Software Xon/Xoff.
ACPI Conguration
Use this feature to congure Advanced Conguration and Power Interface (ACPI)
power management settings for your system.
High Precision Timer
Select Enabled to activate the High Performance Event Timer (HPET) that produces
periodic interrupts at a much higher frequency than a Real-time Clock (RTC) does in
synchronizing multimedia streams, providing smooth playback and reducing the de-
pendency on other timestamp calculation devices, such as an x86 RDTSC Instruc-
tion embedded in the CPU. The High Performance Event Timer is used to replace
the 8254 Programmable Interval Timer. The options are Enabled and Disabled.
