SUPERSERVER 5037C-T User's Manual

Fan Headers

The X9SCA has five fan headers (Fan1 ~ Fan4 and FanA). These are all 4-pin fan headers, however pins 1-3 are backward compatible with traditional 3-pin fans. A fan speed control setting in the BIOS (Hardware Monitoring section) allows the BIOS to automatically set fan speeds based on the system temperature. Refer to the table on the right for pin definitions.

Note: Please use all 3-pin fans or all 4-pin fans on the motherboard. Do not mix 3-pin fans and 4-pin fans on the same board.

Chassis Intrusion

A Chassis Intrusion header is located at JL1 on the motherboard. Attach the ap- propriate cable from the chassis to inform you of a chassis intrusion when the chas- sis is opened.

ATX PS/2 Keyboard and PS/2 Mouse Ports

The ATX PS/2 keyboard and the PS/2 mouse ports are located beside the USB ports. See the table on the right for pin definitions.

External Speaker

On the JSPK header, pins 3~4 are used to activate the onboard (internal) speaker. Close pins 3~4 with a jumper to use the onboard speaker. If you wish to use an external speaker, attach the external speaker's cable to pins 1~4. See the table on the right for pin definitions.
