Thermal Shutdown System for IBM 4341 Computers.

Abstract

This report describes a thermal shutdown system designed to augment an IBM 4341 processor running the VM/CMS operating system. The microprocessor system monitors room temperature and alerts computer users to an impending shutdown when the temperature becomes too high. A user defined shutdown procedure is then executed prior to powering off the processor and all local peripherals.
