Systems and methods for intelligent and flexible management and monitoring of computer systems are provided using platform management controllers (PMCs) located on circuit boards of a computer system. The PMCs provide for enhanced circuit board certification and security, enhanced systems monitoring and reporting, and enhanced systems control. The PMCs also allow for emulation of processor-based devices and are low-power, low-cost and very fast when compared to the devices replaced and functionality provided. A power supply tracking apparatus helps to ensure that a first power input to an operational circuit maintains a predefined relationship to a second power input to the operational circuit. Systems and methods for receiving computer systems diagnostics information and for customizably displaying such information from a diagnostics monitoring device are incorporated into a computer system. The monitored computer system information is transmitted to a diagnostics device, such as by infrared or by a novel temporary wired connection. |
