Desktop Board Features
Security Passwords
The BIOS includes security features that restrict whether the BIOS Setup program can
be accessed and who can boot the computer. A supervisor password and a user
password can be set for the BIOS Setup and for booting the computer, with the
following restrictions:
• The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all Setup
options. If only the supervisor password is set, pressing <Enter> at the password
prompt of Setup gives the user restricted access to Setup.
• If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, you must enter either the
supervisor password or the user password to access Setup. Setup options are then
available for viewing and changing depending on whether the supervisor or user
password was entered.
• Setting a user password restricts who can boot the computer. The password
prompt is displayed before the computer is booted. If only the supervisor
password is set, the computer boots without asking for a password. If both
passwords are set, you can enter either password to boot the computer.
For instructions on resetting the password, go to Clearing Passwords on page 53.
Hardware Management
The hardware management features of Intel Desktop Board DH67VR 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 Monitoring
Fan monitoring can be observed via the BIOS Setup program, Intel® Desktop Utilities,
or third-party software.
21
Intel Desktop Board DH67VR Product Guide
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 1 for
the location of the chassis intrusion header.
Power Management
Power management is implemented at several levels, including software support
through the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) and the following
hardware support:
• Power connectors
• Fan headers
• LAN wake capabilities
• Instantly Available PC technology (Suspend to RAM)
• +5 V standby power indicator LED
• Wake from USB
• PCI Express WAKE# signal support
• Wake from CIR
Software Support
ACPI
ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug
and Play functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with the Desktop Board requires an
operating system that provides full ACPI support.
Hardware Support
Power Connectors
ATX12V-compliant power supplies can turn off the computer power through system
control. When an ACPI-enabled computer receives the correct command, the power
supply removes all non-standby voltages.
When resuming from an AC power failure, the computer returns to the power state it
was in before power was interrupted (either on or off). The computer’s response can
be set by using the Last Power State feature in the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu.
The Desktop Board has two power connectors. See Figure 23 on page 51 for the
location of the power connectors.
22
Desktop Board Features
Fan Headers
The function/operation of the fans is as follows:
• The fans are on when the board is in the ACPI S0 or S1 state.
• The fans are off when the computer is in the ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state.
• Each fan header is wired to a tachometer input.
• All fan headers support closed-loop fan control that can adjust the fan speed or
switch the fan on or off as needed.
• All fan headers have a +12 V DC connection (up to 12 V DC when using 3-wire
chassis fans).
• All fan headers are controlled by Pulse Width Modulation.
• The chassis fan header supports linear fan control on 3-wire fans.
The Desktop Board has a 4-pin processor fan header and two 4-pin chassis fan
headers compatible with 4-wire and 3-wire chassis fans.
CAUTION
For LAN wake capabilities, the 5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable
of delivering adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby
current when using this feature can damage the power supply.
LAN wakeup capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network.
The LAN subsystem monitors network traffic and upon detecting a Magic Packet*
frame, it asserts a wake-up signal that powers up the computer.
CAUTION
For Instantly Available PC technology, the 5 V standby line for the power supply must
be capable of delivering adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate
standby current when using this feature can damage the power supply and/or effect
ACPI S3 sleep state functionality.
Instantly Available PC technology enables the board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-to-
RAM) sleep state. Instantly Available PC technology enables the board to enter the
ACPI S3 (Suspend-to-RAM) sleep-state. While in the S3 sleep-state, the computer will
appear to be off (the power supply is off and the front panel power LED will behave as
configured by the BIOS “S3 State Indicator” option). When signaled by a wake-up
device or event, the system quickly returns to its last known wake state. When
signaled by a wake-up device or event, the computer quickly returns to its last known
awake state.
23
Intel Desktop Board DH67VR Product Guide
The Desktop Board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification.
Add-in cards that support this specification can participate in power management and
can be used to wake the computer.
The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and
PCI 2.2 compliant add-in cards, PCI Express add-in cards, and drivers.
CAUTION
If the AC power has been switched off and the standby power indicator is still lit,
disconnect the power cord before installing or removing any devices connected to the
board. Failure to do so could damage the board and any attached devices.
The Desktop Board’s standby power indicator, shown in Figure 3, is lit when there is
standby power still present on the board even when the computer appears to be off.
For example, when this green LED is lit, standby power is still present at the memory
module sockets and the PCI Express connector.
24
Desktop Board Features
For more information on standby current requirements for the Desktop Board, refer to
the Technical Product Specification at
http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/
NOTE
Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB
and an operating system that supports Wake from USB.
USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 or S3 state.
Speaker
A speaker is mounted on the Desktop Board. The speaker provides audible error code
(beep code) information during the Power-On Self-Test (POST). Refer to Appendix A
for a description of the board’s beep codes.
NOTE
If the battery and AC power fail, date and time values will be reset and the user will be
notified during the POST.
When the battery voltage drops below a certain level, the BIOS Setup program
settings stored in CMOS RAM (for example, the date and time) might not be accurate.
Replace the battery with an equivalent one. Go to page 54 for instructions on how to
replace the battery.
