Desktop Board Features Hardware Management Features The hardware management features of Intel Desktop Board DP43TF enable the board to be compatible with the Wired for Management (WfM) specification. The board has several hardware management features including the following: • Fan speed monitoring and control • Thermal and voltage monitoring • Chassis intrusion detection Fan Speed, Thermal, and Voltage Monitoring and Control The board's fan speed, thermal, and voltage monitoring and control features include the following: • Monitoring of power supply voltages to detect levels above and below acceptable values • Intel Quiet System Technology fan speed control, delivering acoustically-optimized thermal management NOTE Memory must be installed in the Channel A, DIMM 0 socket to enable Intel Quiet System Technology. • Thermally monitored closed-loop fan control, for all onboard fans, that can adjust fan speed according to thermal conditions. • Fan speed controllers and sensors integrated into ICH10 • Thermal sensors in the processor, the MCH, and ICH10, plus an onboard remote sensor NOTE The minimum thermal reporting threshold for the MCH is 66 °C. The MCH thermal sensor will display 66 °C until the temperature rises above this point. Chassis Intrusion The board supports a chassis security feature that detects if the chassis cover has been removed. The security feature uses a mechanical switch on the chassis that can be connected to the chassis intrusion header on the Desktop Board. See Figure 22 for the location of the chassis intrusion header. 19

Hardware Management Features
The hardware management features of Intel Desktop Board DP43TF enable the board
to be compatible with the Wired for Management (WfM) specification.
The board has
several hardware management features including the following:
Fan speed monitoring and control
Thermal and voltage monitoring
Chassis intrusion detection
Fan Speed, Thermal, and Voltage Monitoring and
Control
The board’s fan speed, thermal, and voltage monitoring and control features include
the following:
Monitoring of power supply voltages to detect levels above and below acceptable
values
Intel Quiet System Technology fan speed control, delivering acoustically-optimized
thermal management
NOTE
Memory must be installed in the Channel A, DIMM 0 socket to enable Intel
Quiet System Technology.
Thermally monitored closed-loop fan control, for all onboard fans, that can adjust
fan speed according to thermal conditions.
Fan speed controllers and sensors integrated into ICH10
Thermal sensors in the processor, the MCH, and ICH10, plus an onboard remote
sensor
NOTE
The minimum thermal reporting threshold for the MCH is 66 °C.
The MCH thermal
sensor will display 66 °C until the temperature rises above this point.
Chassis Intrusion
The board supports a chassis security feature that detects if the chassis cover has
been removed.
The security feature uses a mechanical switch on the chassis that can
be connected to the chassis intrusion header on the Desktop Board.
See Figure 22 for
the location of the chassis intrusion header.
