X9DR3-LN4F+/X9DRi-LN4F+ 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 System_Hardware_Monitor chip that supports PC
health monitoring. An onboard voltage monitor will scan the voltages for processor,
memory, chipset, and battery continuously. 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 dene the sensitivity of the voltage monitor.
Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Control
The PC health monitor chip can check the RPM status of a cooling fan. The onboard
CPU and chassis fans are controlled by rmware thermal management via IPMI 2.0.
Environmental Temperature Control
A thermal control sensor monitors the CPU temperature in real time and will turn
on the thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature exceeds a user-dened
threshold. The overheat circuitry runs independently from the CPU. Once the
thermal management rmware detects that the CPU temperature is too high, it will
automatically turn on the thermal fan control to prevent the CPU from overheating.
The onboard chassis thermal circuitry can monitor the overall system temperature
and alert the user when the chassis temperature is too high.
Note: To avoid possible system overheating, please be sure to provide
adequate airow to your system.
System Resource Alert
This feature is available when used with SuperDoctor® III in the Windows OS
environment or used with SuperDoctor II in Linux. SuperDoctor is used to notify
the user of certain system events. For example, you can congure SuperDoctor
to provide you with warnings when the system temperature, CPU temperatures,
Chapter 1: Overview
1-13
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ca-
tion denes 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 CD-ROMs, 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 Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows
2008 Operating Systems.
Slow Blinking LED for Suspend-State Indicator
When the CPU goes into a suspend state, the chassis power LED will start blinking
to indicate that the CPU is in suspend mode. When the user presses any key, the
CPU will "wake up" and the LED will automatically stop blinking and remain on.
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 X9DR3-LN4F+/X9DRi-LN4F+ motherboard accommodates 24-pin ATX power
supplies. Although most power supplies generally meet the specications 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. Your power supply
must also supply 1.5A for the Ethernet ports.
Warning: To prevent damage to the power supply or motherboard, please use a power
supply that contains a 24-pin and two 8-pin power connectors. Be sure to connect these
power supply connectors to the 24-pin (JPW1) and two 8-pin power connectors (JPW2,
JPW3) on the motherboard. Failure to do so will 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 Specication 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
1-14
X9DR3-LN4F+/X9DRi-LN4F+ Motherboard Users Manual
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.
1-7 Super I/O
The Super I/O supports two high-speed, 16550 compatible serial communication
ports (UARTs). Each UART includes a 16-byte send/receive FIFO, a programmable
baud rate generator, complete modem control capability and a processor interrupt
system. Both UARTs provide legacy speed with baud rate of up to 115.2 Kbps
as well as an advanced speed with baud rates of 250 K, 500 K, or 1 Mb/s, which
support higher speed modems.
The Super I/O provides functions that comply with ACPI (Advanced Conguration
and Power Interface), which includes support of legacy and ACPI power manage-
ment through an SMI or SCI function pin. It also features auto power management
to reduce power consumption.
1-8 Advanced Power Management
The following advanced power management features are supported by this moth-
erboard:
Intel ® Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM) (Available
when the NMView utility is installed in the system)
The Intel ®
Intelligent Power Node Manager (IPNM) provides your system with
real-time thermal control and power management for maximum energy efciency.
Although IPNM Specication Version 1.5/2.0 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: Support for IPNM Specication Version 1.5 or Vision 2.0 depends
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.

Other Important Notes and Restrictions
•For the memory modules to work properly, please install DIMM modules of the same
type, same speed and same operating frequency on the motherboard. Mixing of
RDIMMs, UDIMMs or LRDIMMs is not allowed. Do not install both ECC and Non-ECC
memory modules on the same motherboard.
•Using DDR3 DIMMs with different operating frequencies is not allowed. All channels
in a system will run at the lowest common frequency.

2-5 Motherboard Installation
All motherboards have standard mounting holes to t different types of chassis.
Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both motherboard and
chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting fas-
teners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the motherboard
to the chassis. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in tightly.
Then use a screwdriver to secure the motherboard onto the motherboard tray.
Tools Needed
•Phillips Screwdriver
•Pan head screws (12 pieces)
•Standoffs (12 pieces, if needed)
Location of Mounting Holes
There are twelve (12) mounting holes on this motherboard indicated by the arrows.
Caution: 1) To avoid damaging the motherboard and its components,
please do not use a force greater than 8 lb/inch on each mounting screw
during motherboard installation. 2) Some components are very close to the
mounting holes. Please take precautionary measures to prevent damage
to these components when installing the motherboard to the chassis.
Chapter 2: Installation
2-17
Installing the Motherboard
1. Install the I/O shield into the chassis.
2. Locate the mounting holes on the motherboard.
3. Locate the matching mounting holes on the chassis. Align the mounting holes
on the motherboard against the mounting holes on the chassis.
4. Install standoffs in the chassis as needed.
5. Install the motherboard into the chassis carefully to avoid damaging mother-
board components.
6. Using the Phillips screwdriver, insert a Pan head #6 screw into a mounting
hole on the motherboard and its matching mounting hole on the chassis.
7. Repeat Step 5 to insert #6 screws into all mounting holes.
8. Make sure that the motherboard is securely placed in the chassis.
Note: Images displayed are for illustration only. Your chassis or compo-
nents might look different from those shown in this manual.

Unit Identier Switch
A Unit Identier (UID) Switch and two LED
Indicators are located on the motherboard.
The UID Switch is located next to the LAN
2/4 ports on the backplane. The Rear UID
LED (LE2) is located next to the UID Switch.
The Front Panel UID LED is located at pins
7/8 of the Front Control Panel at JF1. Con-
nect a cable to pin 8 on JF1 for Front Panel
UID LED indication. When you press the
UID switch, both Rear UID LED and Front
Panel UID LED Indicators will be turned on.

Explanation of Jumpers
To modify the operation of the mother-
board, jumpers can be used to choose
between optional settings. Jumpers cre-
ate shorts between two pins to change
the function of the connector. Pin 1
is identied 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.

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 short the connection.
Always remove the AC power cord from the system before clearing CMOS.
Note 1: For an ATX power supply, you must completely shut down the
system, remove the AC power cord, and then short JBT1 to clear CMOS.
Note 2: Be sure to remove the onboard CMOS Battery before you short
JBT1 to clear CMOS.
Note 3: Clearing CMOS will also clear all passwords.

Watch Dog Enable/Disable
Watch Dog (JWD1) is a system monitor that
can reboot the system when a software ap-

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.

utilities it contains. (You may also use a utility to extract the ISO le if preferred.)
Another option is to go to the Supermicro Website at http://www.supermicro.com/
products/. Find the product page for your motherboard here, where you may down-
load individual drivers and utilities.
After creating a CD/DVD with the ISO les, insert the disk into the CD/DVD drive
on your system and the display shown below should appear.
Note 1: Click the icons showing a hand writing on paper to view the
readme les for each item. Click the computer icons to the right of these
items to install each item (from top to the bottom) one at a time. After
installing each item, you must re-boot the system before moving on
to the next item on the list. The bottom icon with a CD on it allows you
to view the entire contents.

B-2 Conguring SuperDoctor III
The SuperDoctor® III program is a web-based management tool that supports
remote management capability. It includes Remote and Local Management tools.
The local management is called SD III Client. The SuperDoctor III program allows
you to monitor the environment and operations of your system. SuperDoctor III
displays crucial system information such as CPU temperature, system voltages
and fan status. See the gures below for examples of the SuperDoctor III interface.
Note: The default User Name and Password for SuperDoctor III is ADMIN
/ ADMIN.
Note: When SuperDoctor III is rst installed, it adopts the temperature
threshold settings that have been set in BIOS. Any subsequent changes to
these thresholds must be made within SuperDoctor III, as the SuperDoc-
tor III settings override the BIOS settings. To set the BIOS temperature
threshold settings again, you would rst need to uninstall SuperDoctor III.
Note 2: When making a storage driver diskette by booting into a Driver
CD, please set the SATA Conguration to "Compatible Mode" and congure
SATA as IDE in the BIOS Setup. After making the driver diskette, be sure
to change the SATA settings back to your original settings.
Note 3: Changing BMC log-in information is recommended during initial
system power-on. The default username is ADMIN and password is
ADMIN. For BMC best practices, please refer to: http://www.supermicro.
