Figure 6. LCD Control Panel
The LCD panel is a graphics display controlled by the iDRAC6. Both iDRAC6 and BIOS can send error
codes and messages to the display.
The system's LCD panel provides system information and status messages to signify when the system
is operating correctly or when the system needs attention.
BIOS has the ability to enter a secure mode through Setup, which locks the Power and NMI buttons.
When in this mode, the power button can still be used to turn on the server even when the power
button is disabled in System Setup.
For more information on the LCD panel, see the LCD Panel Features section in the About Your System
chapter in the PowerEdge T610 Hardware Owner’s Manual on Support.Dell.com.
