enable or disable termination for the
SCSI Channel A and B connectors, re-
spectively. The default setting for both
is open to enable termination. See the
table on right for jumper settings.
Note: In order for the SCSI drives to
function properly, please do not change

3rd Power Supply Fail Signal
Enable/Disable
The system can notify you in the event
of a power supply failure. This feature
assumes that three redundant power
supply units are installed in the chas-
sis. If you only have one or two power
supplies installed, you should disable
the function with the J3P header to pre-
vent false alarms. See the table on the
right for jumper settings.

Watch Dog Enable/Disable
JWD controls the Watch Dog function.
Watch Dog is a system monitor that
can reboot the system when a software
application hangs. Pins 1-2 will cause
WD to reset the system if an applica-
tion has frozen. Pins 2-3 will generate
a non-maskable interrupt signal for the
application that is frozen. See the table
on the right for jumper settings. Watch
Dog must also be enabled in BIOS.
