HP MaxiLife Utility HP MaxiLife Utility HP MaxiLife is a hardware monitoring chip which is resident on the system board. This chip receives data about the various system components via a dedicated I2C bus. If it detects a potential error or that a component is in an error state (for example, there is a CPU failure), it displays a warning with a flashing LED and message on its LCD that specifies which component has the problem. Due to HP MaxiLife's system independent design, even if there is a serious component failure, it remains in operation and is able to indicate what the problem is via the LCD. For the HP MaxiLife to work correctly, the PC Workstation must always be connected to a grounded outlet. This enables the PC Workstation's hardware monitoring chip to be active, even if the system has been powered off. The following diagram shows where the LCD is located on the HP Kayak XU Series 0441 PC Workstation.
