The “CASE OPEN” header provides case open-monitoring function. To make this function work,
you have to enable it in the system BIOS, connect this header to a sensor somewhere on the
case. So, whenever the sensor is triggered by lights or when you open the chassis, the system
will send out beep sound to inform you. Please be informed that this useful function only applies
to advanced chassis. You may purchase an extra sensor, attach it on your chassis, and make a
good use of this function.
