Unit Identifier Switches

There are two Unit Identifier (UID) Switches on the motherboard. The Front Panel UID Switch is connected to a pin in the Front Control Panel (JF1). The Rear UID Switch (SW1) is located next to Fan6. When you push the UID Switch on the Front Control Panel, both Rear UID and Front Panel UID Indicators will be turned on. Push the FP UID Switch or the Rear UID Switch-SW1 again to turn off both Indicators. These UID Indicators provide easy identification of a system unit that may be in need of service.
