The LCD panel is a graphics display controlled by the iDRAC6, unlike the 9G panel which had its own
CPLD. Error codes can be sent to the display by either iDRAC6 or BIOS.
The BIOS will have the ability to enter a "Secure Mode" through setup, which will lock the power and NMI
buttons. When in this mode, pressing either button has no eect but does not mask other sources of
NMI and power control.
