2. Press down on the two depressions with your thumbs and slide the cover towards the rear of the chassis and remove the cover.

To reinstall the cover, slide it towards the front of the chassis, then tighten the screws loosened in Step 1.

# 3.2 Installing Memory Modules

There are no limitations on installing memory modules in this device. Each slot can accept a memory module up to 64GB.

# 3.4 PCIe Slot Secondary Power Supply

The MECS-6110 is equipped with two 4-pin ATX-type 12V power connectors on the mainboard (see 1.3.5 MECS-6110 Internal Layout on page 10) to provide secondary power for PCIe expansion cards if required. Two adapter cables are included. The pin definitions of the connectors and cables are described below.

# 4.2 Status LEDs and Buttons

# Power LED (green)

The Power LED will light when the system is booted up (S0 state).

# Alert LED (red)

Off: Indicates normal system operation. On: Indicates a critical alarm.

# Drive Activity (HDD) LED (yellow)

The Drive Activity (HDD) LED is controlled by SATALED# from the chipset. When SATA storage is active (read/write), the LED will blink.

Note: This LED can also be user defined. Refer to 4.7 HDD/User LED Jumper and 4.8 User LED Commands on page 48.

# UID Button and LED (blue)

The UID button/indicator is used to conveniently locate the server. The LED can be turned off or on manually by pressing the UID button or remotely controlled by management command.

# Health Behavior LED (green/red)

The Health Behavior LED has the following behavior.

1. Default: Green (blinking) indicates healthy BMC status.
2. Override: User can use the OEM LED command (LED1/LED2) to override the LED status to reflect the system health status.

# Power Button

The behaviour of the power buttons is as follows:

1. When system is powered on, pressing the button briefly will trigger the OS to perform a graceful shut down.
2. When system is powered on, pressing the button for ≥ 4 seconds will trigger a hard shut down.
3. When system is powered off, pressing the button briefly will power on the system.

# Reset Button

Pushing the reset button will trigger a cold reset of the system.

# 5 BIOS Setup

# 5.1 BIOS Setup Menu

The BIOS setup utility is invoked by pressing &lt;ESC&gt; or &lt;DEL&gt; keys. User can change BIOS settings during setup utility runs. A system reset is required for new settings to take effect.

In the BIOS setup utility, there are several hot keys are designed for specific purposes, as listed below.

&lt;F1&gt;: General help in setup menu
&lt;F8&gt;: Load previous BIOS values
&lt;F9&gt;: Load BIOS default in setup utility
&lt;F10&gt;: Save & Exit setup utility

To navigate through the BIOS setup menu, use the following.

<table><tr><td>→←</td><td>Left/Right. The Left and Right &lt; Arrow &gt; keys allow you to select a setup screen.For example: Main screen, Advanced screen, Chipset screen, and so on.</td></tr><tr><td>↑↓</td><td>Up/Down The Up and Down &lt; Arrow &gt; keys allow you to select a setup item or sub-screen.</td></tr><tr><td>+-</td><td>Plus/Minus The Plus and Minus &lt; Arrow &gt; keys allow you to change the field value of a particular setup item.For example: Date and Time.</td></tr><tr><td>Tab</td><td>The &lt; Tab &gt; key allows you to select setup fields.</td></tr></table>

# 5.1.1 Menu Selection Bar

The Menu Selection Bar is located at the top of the screen. It displays the top level available menus to the user:

• Main Menu
Advanced Menu
Platform Configuration Menu
• Server Mgmt
• Security Menu
Boot Menu
Save & Exit Menu

# 5.1.2 Menu Conventions

The appearance of the setup menu listed in this chapter is a sample to describe the item list. It is shown on a VT100 terminal via serial console. The menu conventions are as follows.

# Using color

The mandatory BIOS setup fields are in black. The BIOS setup fields currently not used are in grey. The display only strings are in black.

# Using brackets

Editable menu options are marketed with squares ‘[‘ and ‘]’ to distinguish them from display only fields that can’t be modified.

# 5.2 Main Menu

The Main Menu provides read-only information about the system and also allows you to set the system date and time. The tables below show screen shots of the Main menu details, submenus and settings.
