USB standby power
If your motherboard does not have auto-switch function (refer to the motherboard
manual), you may need to set up jumpers.
.
You may find a number of jumpers labelled “USBPW” on your motherboard. The
USBPW12 and USBPW34 jumpers are for the USB ports on the rear panel. The
USBPW56 and USBPW78 jumpers are for the internal USB connnectors that
you can connect to additional USB ports. You only need to set up USBPW56
and USBPW78 for using the FrontLinker™. If the jumper of the USB is not set to
+5VSB position, refer to your motherboard manual to set the jumper to +5VSB
position. Here we take ASUS P5VD2-MX motherboard an example:

• The total current consumed must NOT exceed the power supply capability
(+5VSB) whether the PC is turned on or off. Overloading the current
consumed when the PC is turned off may result in startup failure.
• We suggest charging no more than two devices at the same time when the
PC is turned off.
ex:
• Make sure the USB connector on the motherboard is set to +5VSB. You
may need to set up jumpers if your motherboard does not have auto-switch
function (refer to the motherboard manual). For detailed information about
jumper settings, refer to the section “USB standby power”.
• We suggest connecting the SATA cable to the E-SATA
.connector.on.the.
motherboard (not any SATA connector); otherwise, the transfer rate may
be decreased. Refer to the motherboard manual for the location of E-SATA
connector.
• Make sure that the cables are firmly connected on both ends.
• When the PC is turned on, the power supply comes from ATX power cable;
when the PC is turned off, the power supply comes from +5VSB on the
USB.connector.
7. The blue LED indicator lights up when the power cable from the power outlet is
connected to the PC, the USB cable is correctly connected to the motherboard, and
the USB connector on the motherboard is set to +5VSB. For the location of the blue
LED indicator, refer to the “FrontLinker™ DH panel board layout” on page 10.
Don’t forget to connect the power cable from the power outlet to the PC.
