Table 40. Mini Contol Panel Button Functions
Reference Feature Function
A ID Button Toggles the front panel ID LED and the baseboard ID LED on/off. The
baseboard ID LED is visible through the rear of the chassis and allows you
to locate the server you’re working on from behind a rack of servers.
B NMI Button Pressing the recessed button with a paper clip or pin puts the server in a
halt state for diagnostic purposes and allows you to issue a non-maskable
interrupt. After issuing the interrupt, a memory download can be performed
to determine the cause of the problem.
C1 Power /
Sleep Button
Toggles the system power on/off. This button also functions as a sleep
button if enabled by an ACPI-compliant operating system.
7.2 Mini Control Panel LED Indicators
The control panel houses three LEDs, which are viewable with or without the front bezel to
display the system’s operating state.
Figure 35. Mini Control Panel LED’s

Notes:
1. Blink rate is ~1 Hz with at 50% duty cycle.
2. The amber status takes precedence over the green status. When the amber LED is on or blinking, the green
LED is off.
3. The power LED sleep indication is maintained on standby by the chipset. If the system is powered down
without going through BIOS, the LED state in effect at the time of power off will be restored when the system
is powered on until the BIOS clears it. If the system is not powered down normally, it is possible that the
Power LED will be blinking at the same time that the system status LED is off due to a failure or
configuration change that prevents the BIOS from running.
