Chapter 1: Introduction
1.2 Processor and Chipset Support
Built upon the functionality and capability of the 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processor
(Socket P+) and the Intel C621A chipset, the motherboard increases energy eciency, and
system performance for a multitude of applications such as high performance computing,
Hyper-Converged Infrastructure, big data, and enterprise applications.
Features Supported
• Vector Neural Network Instructions (VNNI) support to accelerate training
• New hardware-enhanced security features help protect platform and data without compro-
mising performance
• High PCIe performance (PCIe 4.0) with double the bandwidth of PCIe 3.0
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 o (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 System Health Monitoring
Onboard Voltage Monitors
An onboard voltage monitor will scan the voltages of the onboard chipset, memory, and CPU
continuously. Once a voltage becomes unstable, a warning is given, or an error message is
sent to the screen.
Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Control
The system health monitor embedded in the BMC chip can check the RPM status of the
cooling fans. The CPU and chassis fans are controlled via BMC.
20
Super X12SPT-PT User's Manual
Environmental Temperature Control
System Health sensors monitor temperatures and voltage settings of onboard processors and
the system in real time via the BMC interface. Whenever the temperature of the CPU or the
system exceeds a pre-dened threshold, system and CPU cooling fans will be turned on to
prevent the CPU or the system from overheating.
Note: To avoid possible system overheating, be sure to provide adequate airow to
your system.
System Resource Alert
This feature is available when used with SuperDoctor 5 ® in the Windows OS environment.
SuperDoctor is used to notify the user of certain system events. For example, you can
congure SuperDoctor to provide you with warnings when the system temperature, CPU
temperatures, voltages and fan speeds go beyond a predened range.
1.5 ACPI Features
ACPI stands for Advanced Conguration and Power Interface. The ACPI specication denes
a exible and abstract hardware interface that provides a standard way to integrate power
management features throughout a computer system, including its hardware, operating
system and application software. This enables the system to automatically turn on and o
peripherals such as network cards, hard disk drives and printers.
In addition to enabling operating system-directed power management, ACPI also provides a
generic system event mechanism for Plug and Play, and an operating system-independent
interface for conguration control. ACPI leverages the Plug and Play BIOS data structures,
while providing a processor architecture-independent implementation that is compatible with
appropriate Windows operating systems. For detailed information regarding OS support, refer
to the Supermicro website.
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 where
noisy power transmission is present.

2.1 Static-Sensitive Devices
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To avoid damaging your
motherboard, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following measures are generally
sucient to protect your equipment from ESD.
Precautions
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• Touch a grounded metal object before removing the motherboard from the antistatic bag.
• Handle the motherboard by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,
memory modules or gold contacts.
• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
• Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in use.
• For grounding purposes, make sure that your computer chassis provides excellent conduc-
tivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and the motherboard.
• Use only the correct type of onboard CMOS battery. Do not install the onboard battery
upside down to avoid possible explosion.
Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage. When unpacking
the motherboard, make sure that the person handling it is static protected.

2.2 Processor and Heatsink Installation
The processor (CPU) and processor carrier should be assembled together rst to form
the processor carrier assembly. This will be attached to the heatsink to form the processor
heatsink module (PHM) before being installed into the CPU socket. Before installation, be
sure to perform the following steps below:
• Use ESD protection
• Unplug the AC power cords from all power supplies after shutting down the system.
• Check that the plastic protective cover is on the CPU socket and none of the socket pins
are bent. If they are, contact your retailer.
• When handling the processor, avoid touching or placing direct pressure on the LGA lands
(gold contacts). Improper installation or socket misalignment can cause serious damage
to the processor or CPU socket, which may require manufacturer repairs.
• Thermal grease is pre-applied on a new heatsink. No additional thermal grease is needed.
• Refer to the Supermicro website for updates on processor and memory support.
• All graphics in this manual are for illustrations only. Your components may look dierent.

UID (Unit Identiîšżer)/BMC Reset Switch and UID/BMC Reset LED Indicators
A UID/BMC Reset switch (JUIDB1) is located on the rear side of the motherboard. This switch
has dual functions. It can be used to identify a system unit that is in need of service, and it
can also be used to reset the BMC settings.
When functioning as a BMC reset switch, JUIDB1 will trigger a cold reboot when you press
and hold the switch for six seconds. It will also restore the BMC to the manufacturer's default
when you press and hold the switch for 12 seconds.
When functioning as a UID LED switch, JUIDB1 will turn the rear UID LED (UID-LED) on and
o󰀨 when you press the switch on/o󰀨.
To achieve these dual purposes, the UID LED/BMC Reset switch works in conjunction with
the BMC Heartbeat LED (LEDM1) and rear UID LED (UID-LED). Note that UID can also be
triggered via BMC on the motherboard. For more details on the UID LEDs and BMC LEDs,
refer to the tables below. Also, refer to the BMC User's Guide posted on our website at www.
supermicro.com for more information on BMC.

2.7 Jumper Settings
How Jumpers Work
To modify the operation of the motherboard, 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 identiîšżed with a square solder pad on the
printed circuit board. See the diagram below for an example
of jumping pins 1 and 2. Refer to the motherboard layout page
for jumper locations.
Note: On two-pin jumpers, "Closed" means the jumper
is on and "Open" means the jumper is o󰀨 the pins.

CMOS Clear
JBT1 is used to clear CMOS, which will also clear any passwords. Instead of pins, this jumper
consists of contact pads to prevent accidentally clearing the contents of CMOS.
To Clear CMOS
1. First power down the system and unplug the power cord(s).
2. Remove the cover of the chassis to access the motherboard and remove the battery
from the motherboard.
3. Short the CMOS pads with a metal object such as a small screwdriver for at least four
seconds.
4. Remove the screwdriver (or shorting device).
5. Replace the cover, reconnect the power cord(s), and power on the system.
Note: Clearing CMOS will also clear all passwords.

No Video
1. Make sure that your peripherals or devices function normally.
2. If you see no any video in power on mode, turn o the system, then remove all add-on
cards and cables. Check if the system can be powered on.
System Boot Failure
If the system does not display Power-On-Self-Test (POST) or does not respond after the
power is turned on, check the following:
1. Remove all components from the motherboard, especially the DIMM modules.
2. 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.
Memory Errors
1. Make sure that the memory modules are compatible with the system and are properly
installed. See Chapter 2 for installation instructions. (For memory compatibility, refer
to the "Tested Memory List" link on the motherboard's product page to see a list of
supported memory.)
2. Check if all memory modules are populated with same type and speed.
3. Check for bad DIMM modules or slots by swapping a single module among all memory
slots and check the results.
Losing the System's Setup Conguration
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 Chapter 1 for
details on recommended power supplies.
2. The coin battery on your motherboard may be old. Check to verify that it still supplies
approximately 3VDC. If it does not, replace it with a new one.
When the System Becomes Unstable
A. If the system becomes unstable during or after OS installation, check the following:
1. CPU/BIOS support: Make sure that your CPU is supported and that you have the latest
BIOS installed in your system.
Chapter 3: Troubleshooting
67
2. Memory support: Make sure that the memory modules are supported by testing the
modules using memtest86 or a similar utility.
Note: Click on the "Tested Memory List" link on the motherboard's product page to
see a list of supported memory.
3. HDD support: Make sure that all hard disk drives (HDDs) work properly. Replace the
bad HDDs with good ones.
4. System cooling: Check the system cooling to make sure that all heatsink fans and CPU/
system fans, etc., work properly. Check the hardware monitoring settings in the BMC
to make sure that the CPU and system temperatures are within the normal range. Also
check the front panel Overheat LED and make sure that it is not on.
5. Adequate power supply: Make sure that the power supply provides adequate power to
the system. Make sure that all power connectors are connected. Refer to our website for
more information on the minimum power requirements.
6. Proper software support: Make sure that the correct drivers are used.
B. If the system becomes unstable before or during OS installation, check the following:
1. Source of installation: Make sure that the devices used for installation are working
properly, including boot devices such as USB ash or media drives.
2. Cable connection: Check to make sure that all cables are connected and working
properly.
3. Using the minimum conguration for troubleshooting: Remove all unnecessary
components (starting with add-on cards rst), and use the minimum conguration (but
with the CPU and a memory module installed) to identify the trouble areas. Refer to the
steps listed in Section A above for proper troubleshooting procedures.
4. Identifying bad components by isolating them: If necessary, remove a component in
question from the chassis, and test it in isolation to make sure that it works properly.
Replace a bad component with a good one.
5. Check and change one component at a time instead of changing several items at the
same time. This will help isolate and identify the problem.
6. To nd out if a component is good, swap this component with a new one to see if the
system will work properly. If so, then the old component is bad. You can also install the
component in question in another system. If the new system works, the component is
good and the old system has problems.

Question: How do I update my BIOS?
Answer: It is recommended that you do not upgrade your BIOS if you are not experiencing
any problems with your system. Updated BIOS les are located on our website at http://www.
supermicro.com/ResourceApps/BIOS_BMC_Intel.html. Check our BIOS warning message
and the information on how to update your BIOS on our website. Select your motherboard
model and download the BIOS le to your computer. Also, check the current BIOS revision
to make sure that it is newer than your BIOS before downloading.
Note: The SPI BIOS chip used on this motherboard cannot be removed. Send your
motherboard back to our RMA Department at Supermicro for repair. For BIOS Recov-
ery instructions, refer to the AMI BIOS Recovery Instructions posted at http://www.
supermicro.com/support/manuals/.
To update your BIOS under UEFI Shell
Note: We do not recommend that you update your BIOS if you are not experiencing
a BIOS-related problem. If you need to update your BIOS, follow the steps below to
properly update your BIOS under UEFI Shell.
1. Download and save the BIOS update package to your computer.
2. Extract the les from the UEFI folder of the BIOS package to a USB ash drive.
Note: The USB ash drive doesn't have to be bootable; however, it has to be format-
ted with the FAT/FAT32 le system.

UEFI BIOS
4.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the AMIBIOS™ setup utility for the X12SPT-PT motherboard. The
BIOS is stored on a chip and can be easily upgraded using the BMC WebUI or the SUM utility.
Note: Due to periodic changes to the BIOS, some settings may have been added or
deleted and might not yet be recorded in this manual. Refer to the Manual Download
area of our website for any changes to the BIOS that may not be reected in this
manual.
Starting the Setup Utility
To enter the BIOS setup utility, press the <Delete> key while the system is booting up. In
most cases, the <Delete> key is used to invoke the BIOS setup screen; however, in other
cases, other hot keys, such as <F1>, <F2>, may be used for this purpose. Each main BIOS
menu option is described in this manual.
The Main BIOS screen has two main frames. The left frame displays all the options that can
be congured. “Grayed-out” options cannot be congured. The right frame displays the key
legend. Above the key legend is an area reserved for a text message. When an option is
selected in the left frame, it is highlighted in white. Often a text message will accompany it.
Note that BIOS has default text messages built in, and we retain the option to include, omit,
or change any of these text messages. Default values are printed in font.Bold
A " " indicates a submenu. Highlighting such an item and pressing the <Enter> key will
open the list of settings within that submenu.
The BIOS setup utility uses a key-based navigation system called hot keys. Most of these
hot keys (<F1>, <F2>, <F3>, <F4>, <Enter>, <ESC>, <Arrow> keys, etc.) can be used at
any time during the setup navigation process.
