Local Control Panel Option
The LCD (Local Control Display) is a one line character display that resides on the front panel of
the chassis. It can display a maximum of 18 characters at a time. This device also contains 3
buttons (Left, Right and Enter). The user can select the content that needs to be displayed on
the LCD screen by operating these buttons.
8.1 LCD Functionality
The LCD device provides the following features:
 Displays a banner when the system is healthy. The default banner is the server name.
 Displays active error messages when the system is not healthy.
 Provides basic server management configuration.
 Provides the ability to see asset information without having to open the chassis.
The LCD display is menu driven. Based on the user’s selection, respective menu items are
displayed. As soon as AC Power is applied to the system, the LCD panel displays faults
detected while the system is on standby power prior to DC power on. If there are no faults, a
banner is displayed. By default the banner is a text string which displays the Server Name. The
Server Name is the value specified as the product name in the product FRU information in the
BMC FRU. Users can set any of the parameters under the banner configuration menu as a
banner string.
