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.
