The preferred embodiment is specifically illustrated, and the display method is illustrated by a preferred embodiment.

請參閱第一圖,第一圖係顯示本發明第一較佳實施例之用於在主機待開機及開機時分別顯示對應資訊的計算機系統之方塊示意圖,如圖所示,本發明第一較佳實施例之用於在主機待開機及開機時分別顯示對應資訊的計算機系統1(以下簡稱計算機系統1)可為伺服器(server)內之電子元件所構成之系統(亦即伺服器本身),也可為以整合於晶片之形式另外加裝於伺服器內。用於在主機待開機及開機時分別顯示對應資訊的計算機系統1包含一主機電源管理模組11、一處理模組12以及一顯示模組13,其中,主機電源管理模組11係電性連接於處理模組12,處理模組12係電性連接於顯示模組13。此外,顯示模組13係電性連接於一基板管理控制器(Baseboard Management Controller,BMC)2。 Please refer to the first figure. The first figure shows a block diagram of a computer system for displaying corresponding information when the host is to be powered on and turned on according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the first comparison of the present invention is shown. The computer system 1 (hereinafter referred to as the computer system 1) for respectively displaying the corresponding information when the host is to be turned on and turned on can be a system composed of electronic components in the server (that is, the server itself). It can also be additionally installed in the server in the form of being integrated into the chip. The computer system 1 for displaying corresponding information when the host is to be powered on and powered on includes a host power management module 11, a processing module 12, and a display module 13, wherein the host power management module 11 is electrically connected. The processing module 12 is electrically connected to the display module 13 . In addition, the display module 13 is electrically connected to a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) 2.

主機電源管理模組11係可偵測並判斷主機(本發明各較佳實施例中即指伺服器,但其他實施例中不限於此)的運作狀況,舉例來說,本發明較佳實施例中,主機電源管理模組11即是判斷出主機係待開機或是開機狀況,其判斷的方式例如是依據電源電壓的大小,但並不限於此。另外,本發明較佳實施例中待開機的定義中,狹義而言係指主機為關機狀態,廣義而言係指主機處於非正常運作狀態,例如休眠狀態或暫停工作狀態。 The host power management module 11 can detect and determine the operation status of the host (refer to the server in the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but not limited to other embodiments). For example, the preferred embodiment of the present invention The host power management module 11 determines whether the host is to be powered on or powered on. The manner of determining the host is, for example, based on the magnitude of the power supply voltage, but is not limited thereto. In addition, in the definition of the preferred embodiment of the present invention to be turned on, in a narrow sense, the host is in a shutdown state, and in a broad sense, the host is in an abnormal operating state, such as a sleep state or a suspended state.

當主機電源管理模組11判斷出主機為待開機時,將一第一電平顯示電源管理信號S1傳送至處理模組12,此 第一電平顯示電源管理信號S1係為低電平的信號(亦即低位準電壓信號)。 When the host power management module 11 determines that the host is to be powered on, transmits a first level display power management signal S1 to the processing module 12, The first level indicates that the power management signal S1 is a low level signal (ie, a low level voltage signal).

處理模組12接收第一電平顯示電源管理信號S1後,係處理第一電平顯示電源管理信號S1,藉以輸出一第一顯示電源S2,具體來說,此第一顯示電源S2為系統交流(AC)電,且系統交流電為計算機系統1連接外部市電之後就直接轉換輸出的電。 After receiving the first level display power management signal S1, the processing module 12 processes the first level display power management signal S1, thereby outputting a first display power source S2. Specifically, the first display power source S2 is a system communication. (AC) power, and the system AC power directly converts the output power after the computer system 1 is connected to the external utility power.

顯示模組13係接收基板管理控制器2所直接輸出的一顯示信號S3與處理模組12所輸出的第一顯示電源S2,藉以輸出基板管理控制器2所控制內容的顯示資訊,其中,顯示信號S3為視頻圖像陣列(Video Graphics Array,VGA)信號或高清晰度多媒體介面(High Definition Multimedia Interface,HDMI)信號或數位視頻介面(Digital Visual Interface,DVI)信號,但並不限於此,此外,顯示信號S3的內容為基板管理控制器2的裝置資訊與基板管理控制器2的日誌資訊中之至少一者。也就是說,顯示模組13在接收到顯示信號S3與第一顯示電源S2後,即被觸發顯示主機待開機下,基板管理控制器2所控制內容的顯示資訊(例如第四圖所示之畫面,但可不包含有CPLD資訊),包含有系列號碼(serial number)、網際網路位址、主機名稱、韌體版本、記憶體位址與日誌資訊(log events)等資訊,但不限於此。 The display module 13 receives a display signal S3 directly output by the substrate management controller 2 and the first display power S2 output by the processing module 12, thereby outputting display information of the content controlled by the substrate management controller 2, wherein The signal S3 is a Video Graphics Array (VGA) signal or a High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) signal or a Digital Visual Interface (DVI) signal, but is not limited thereto. The content of the display signal S3 is at least one of device information of the substrate management controller 2 and log information of the substrate management controller 2. That is, after receiving the display signal S3 and the first display power source S2, the display module 13 is triggered to display the display information of the content controlled by the substrate management controller 2 when the host is to be turned on (for example, as shown in the fourth figure) The screen, but may not contain CPLD information), including serial number, internet address, host name, firmware version, memory address and log events, but not limited to this.

另外,在主機電源管理模組11判斷出主機為開機(一般來說係判斷出自待開機轉換為開機)時,係輸出一第二電平顯示電源管理信號S4,其中,第二電平顯示電 源管理信號S4係為高電平信號(亦即高位準電壓信號,也就是說,論電壓位準而言,第二電平顯示電源管理信號S4係大於第一電平顯示電源管理信號S1)。 In addition, when the host power management module 11 determines that the host is powered on (generally, it is determined that the standby is to be turned on), the second level display power management signal S4 is output, wherein the second level displays the power. The source management signal S4 is a high level signal (ie, a high level voltage signal, that is, in terms of voltage level, the second level display power management signal S4 is greater than the first level display power management signal S1) .

The system DC power is another type of power that is converted and output after the host is turned on. After the power is turned on, the system AC power and the system DC power are two power supply links coexisting, that is, after the host is powered on, the display module 13 is powered from the first display power source. S2 is converted into the second display power source S5, and if there is an external display device (not shown in the first figure), since the power consumption is large, and the power supplied by the system alternating current is small, it needs to be needed after the power is turned on. Convert system AC power to system DC power.
