Some PCMCIA devices may require third party software support. System management This section describes the types of system management available with the SurePOS 500. System management programs The SurePOS 500 Series supports the following system and power management programs: Desktop Management Interface The SurePOS 500 Series supports System Management BIOS (SMBIOS) v2.4, supporting a DMI-compliant agent such as Tivoli®. This allows access to low-level information. Examples of information that can be accessed are the BIOS level, processor type, speed, manufacturer, system-board information, and detailed memory information. Chapter 1.
