Page: 4 / 59

1-2 SOFT-OFF CONTROL (option)
The ATC-5030 mainboard design supports Soft-Off Control
feature through the SMM code in the BIOS under Windows 95,
Windows 3.1x, and MS-DOS operation system environment. It
needs to use ATX power supply. (please contact your supplier for
this option)
Firstly, you should connect power switch cable (provided by ATX
case supplier) to the PS_ON (CONN1) (next to FAN & socket 7 )
on the ATC-5030 mainboard.
In Windows 95, if you would like to soft power off the system,
you just choose “shutdown the computer ?” in “Shut Down
Windows“ from Windows 95, then push the Power Switch* (on
ATX case), then system will be in soft off status directly. If you
would like to restart the system, just press the button of the power
switch, and the system will be power on.
* Default value (Power management of BIOS screen) is “Instant-
off‘, you can change to ’Delay 4 Sec.‘, then you should push the
Power Switch at least 4 seconds otherwise the system will be
under SMI mode only.
In Windows 3.1x or MS-DOS, you should copy the program of
“down.com” (you can find it in the diskette of IDE driver) into hard
drive. When you would like to power off the system, just run this
“
down.com ”, then the system will be shutdown and stay in
standby status.

use hardware mechanical power off to shutdown your system.
