3.2 Decoding the Audible Alarm The following beep codes are used on Intel RAID controllers that use software stack 2. These codes usually indicate a drive has failed: • Degraded Array: Short tone, one second on, one second off • Failed Array: Long tone, three seconds on, one second off • Hot Spare Commissioned: Short tone, one second on, three seconds off These drive failure tones will repeat until the problem is corrected or until the alarm is silenced or disabled. A tone alarm will also sound and will remain on during a rebuild. After the rebuild completes, an alarm with a different tone will sound, signaling the completion of the build. This is a onetime (non-repeating) tone. The alarm can be disabled either in the BIOS Console or in the Web Console management utilities. When disabled, the alarm will not sound unless it is re-enabled in one of the utilities. The alarm can be silenced either in the BIOS Console or in the Web Console management utilities. The default setting is enabled. 3.3 Technical Specifications The design and implementation of the RAID Controller SRCS16 minimizes electromagnetic emissions, susceptibility to radio frequency energy, and the effects of electrostatic discharge. The RAID Controller SRCS16 carries the CE mark, C-Tick mark, FCC Self-Certification logo, Canadian Compliance Statement, Korean MIC, Taiwan BSMI, and Japan VCCI; they meet the requirements of CISPR Class B. 3.3.1 RAID Controller Specifications Table 3-2 lists the specifications for the RAID Controller SRCS16.

Decoding the Audible Alarm
The following beep codes are used on Intel RAID controllers that use software stack 2. These
codes usually indicate a drive has failed:
Degraded Array: Short tone, one second on, one second off
Failed Array: Long tone, three seconds on, one second off
Hot Spare Commissioned: Short tone, one second on, three seconds off
These drive failure tones will repeat until the problem is corrected or until the alarm is
silenced or disabled.
A tone alarm will also sound and will remain on during a rebuild. After the rebuild completes,
an alarm with a different tone will sound, signaling the completion of the build. This is a one-
time (non-repeating) tone.
The alarm can be disabled either in the BIOS Console or in the Web Console management
utilities. When disabled, the alarm will not sound unless it is re-enabled in one of the utilities.
The alarm can be silenced either in the BIOS Console or in the Web Console management
utilities. The default setting is enabled.
