X10DRL-LN4 Motherboard User’s Manual
1-3 Special Features
Recovery from AC Power Loss
The Basic I/O System (BIOS) provides a setting that determines how the system will
respond when AC power is lost and then restored to the system. You can choose for
the system to remain powered off (in which case you must press the power switch
to turn it back on), or for it to automatically return to the power-on state. See the
Advanced BIOS Setup section for this setting. The default setting is Last State .
1-4 PC Health Monitoring
This section describes the features of PC health monitoring of the motherboard.
This motherboard has an onboard Baseboard-Management Controller (BMC) chip
that supports system health monitoring. An onboard voltage monitor will scan the
following onboard voltages continuously: +3.3V, 3.3V Standby, +5V, +5V Standby,
+12V, CPU Core, Memory, Chipset, and Battery Voltages. Once a voltage becomes
unstable, a warning is given, or an error message is sent to the screen. The user
can adjust the voltage thresholds to dene the sensitivity of the voltage monitor.
Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Control
System-health monitoring support provided by the BMC controller can check the
RPM status of a cooling fan. The onboard CPU and chassis fans are controlled by
IPMI Thermal Management.
Environmental Temperature Control
System-health sensors monitor temperatures and voltage settings of onboard
processors and the system in real time via the IPMI interface. Whenever the tem-
perature of the CPU or the system exceeds a user-dened threshold, system/CPU
cooling fans will be turned on to prevent the CPU or the system from overheating.
Note : To avoid possible system overheating, please be sure to provide
adequate airow to your system.
System Resource Alert
This feature is available when used with SuperDoctor 5 in the Windows OS or Linux
environment. SuperDoctor 5 is used to notify the user of certain system events.
For example, you can congure SuperDoctor 5 to provide you with warnings when
the system temperature, CPU temperatures, voltages, and fan speeds go beyond
a predened range.
1-12
Chapter 1: Overview
1-5 ACPI Features
ACPI stands for Advanced Conguration and Power Interface. The ACPI specica-
tion denes a exible and abstract hardware interface that provides a standard
way to integrate power management features throughout a PC system, including
its hardware, operating system and application software. This enables the system
to automatically turn on and off peripherals such as network cards, hard disk drives
and printers.
In addition to operating system-directed power management, ACPI also provides
a generic system event mechanism for Plug and Play, and an operating system-
independent interface for conguration control. ACPI leverages the Plug and Play
BIOS data structures, while providing a processor architecture-independent imple-
mentation that is compatible with Windows 2008, Windows 2008R2, Windows 2012,
and Windows 2012R2 operating systems.
1-6 Power Supply
As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and
reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU
clock rates.
The X10DRL-LN4 motherboard accommodates 24-pin ATX power supplies. Al-
though most power supplies generally meet the specications required by the
CPU, some are inadequate. In addition, two 12V 8-pin power connections are also
required to ensure adequate power supply to the system.
Warning! To avoid damaging the power supply or the motherboard, be sure to use a
power supply that contains a 24-pin and two 8-pin power connectors. Be sure to con-
nect the power supplies to the 24-pin power connector (J24), and the two 8-pin power
connectors (JPWR1, JPWR2) on the motherboard. Failure in doing so may void the
manufacturer warranty on your power supply and motherboard.
It is strongly recommended that you use a high quality power supply that meets ATX
power supply Specication 2.02 or above. It must also be SSI compliant. (For more
information, please refer to the website at http://www.ssiforum.org/). Additionally, in
areas where noisy power transmission is present, you may choose to install a line
lter to shield the computer from noise. It is recommended that you also install a
power surge protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.

X10DRL-LN4 Motherboard User’s Manual
1-7 Advanced Power Management
The following new advanced power management features are supported by this
motherboard:
Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM) (Available
when "Supermicro Power Management (SPM)" is
Installed)
The Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager 3.0 (IPNM) provides your system with
real-time thermal control and power management for maximum energy efciency.
Although IPNM Specication Version 2.0/3.0 is supported by the BMC (Baseboard
Management Controller), your system must also have IPNM-compatible Manage-
ment Engine (ME) rmware installed to use this feature.
Note: IPNM support is dependent on the power supply used in the system.
Management Engine (ME)
The Management Engine, which is an ARC controller embedded in the PCH, pro-
vides Server Platform Services (SPS) to your system. The services provided by
SPS are different from those provided by the ME on client platforms.

Fan Headers
This motherboard has eight system/CPU
fan headers (Fan 1-Fan 6, Fan A, and Fan
B) on the motherboard. All these 4-pin
fans headers are backward compatible
with the traditional 3-pin fans. However,
fan speed control is available for 4-pin
fans only. The fan speeds are controlled
by the onboard IPMI 2.0 controller. See
the table on the right for pin denitions.
Chassis Intrusion Header
A Chassis Intrusion header is located
at JL1 on the motherboard. Attach an
appropriate cable from the chassis to
inform you of a chassis intrusion when
the chassis is opened.

Explanation of Jumpers
To modify the operation of the mother-
board, jumpers can be used to choose
between optional settings. Jumpers create
shorts between two pins to change the
function of the connector. Pin 1 is identied
with a square solder pad on the printed
circuit board. See the motherboard layout
pages for jumper locations.
Note: On two pin jumpers,
"Closed" means the jumper is
on and "Open" means the jumper
is off the pins.
LAN Enable/Disable
Use JPL1 to enable or disable onboard
GLAN ports (1-4) on the motherboard.
See the table on the right for jumper set-
tings. The default setting is Enabled.

CMOS Clear
JBT1 is used to clear CMOS. Instead of pins, this "jumper" consists of contact pads
to prevent accidental clearing of CMOS. To clear CMOS, use a metal object such
as a small screwdriver to touch both pads at the same time to shor t the connection.
Note 1. Please shut down the system, and then short JBT1 to clear CMOS.
Note 2. Clearing CMOS will also clear all passwords.
Watch Dog Enable/Disable
Watch Dog (JWD1) is a system monitor that
will reboot the system when a software ap-
plication hangs. Close pins 1-2 to reset the
system if an application hangs. Close pins
2-3 to generate a non-maskable interrupt
signal for the application that hangs. See the
table on the right for jumper settings. Watch
Dog must also be enabled in the BIOS.

2-10 SATA Connections
SATA 3.0 Connections
Ten SATA 3.0 ports (I-SATA0-3, I-SATA4/5, S-SA-
TA0-3) are located on the motherboard. I-SATA0 -5
are suppor ted by the Intel PCH, and S-SATA0-3 are
supported by the Intel SCU. I-SATA4/5 can be used
with Supermicro SuperDOMs which are yellow SATA
DOM connectors with power pins built in, and do not
require external cables. Supermicro SuperDOMs are
backward-compatible with regular SATA HDDs or
SATA DOMs that require external power cables. All
these SATA ports provide serial-link signal connec -
tions, which are faster than the connections of Paral-
lel ATA. See the table on the right for pin denitions.

1. If the power is on, but you have no video, remove all the add-on cards and
cables.
2. Use the speaker to determine if any beep codes exist. Refer to Appendix A
for details on beep codes.
System Boot Failure
If the system does not display POST or does not respond after the power is turned
on, check the following:
1. Check for any error beep from the motherboard speaker.
• If there is no error beep, try to turn on the system without DIMM modules in-
stalled. If there is still no error beep, try to turn on the system again with only
one processor installed in CPU Socket#1. If there is still no error beep, replace
the motherboard.
• If there are error beeps, clear the CMOS settings by unplugging the power
cord and contracting both pads on the CMOS Clear Jumper (JBT1). (Refer to
Section 2-8 in Chapter 2.)
2. Remove all components from the motherboard, especially the DIMM modules.
Make sure that system power is on, and memory error beeps are activated.
3. Turn on the system with only one DIMM module installed. If the system
boots, check for bad DIMM modules or slots by following the Memory Errors
Troubleshooting procedure in this Chapter.
Losing the System’s Setup Conguration
1. Make sure that you are using a high quality power supply. A poor quality
power supply may cause the system to lose the CMOS setup information.
Refer to Section 1-6 for details on recommended power supplies.
2. The battery on your motherboard may be old. Check to verify that it still sup-
plies ~3VDC. If it does not, replace it with a new one.
