Unit Identifi er Button (SW1)
There are two Unit Identifi er (UID) buttons 
and LED indicators on the serverboard. 
The Front Panel UID button connects to 
pin 13 on the JF1 header and its LED 
connects to pin 7 of JF1. The Rear UID 
button (SW1) is located next to the VGA 
port and the Rear UID LED is designated 
LE4. When you press the UID button on 
the front or rear of the server, both the 
front and rear LEDs will turn on. Press 
a UID button again to turn off both LEDs. 
These UID LEDs provide easy identifi ca-
tion of a system located in a large rack of 
servers. See the table on the right for pin 
defi nitions.
Note: the UID LED is supported by either 
the physical button or the BMC. When con-
trolled by the physical button it is solid on. 
When controlled by the BMC, it blinks.
