Wake on LAN (WOL)
Provides a connector to an optional PCI LAN card (with remote
wakeup capabilities) so that a remote server can turn on the system
through a network.
RTC Walk-up Timer
The RTC wakeup timer can turn on your system at a predefined date and
time.
Dual-Function Power Button (Soft-Off Control)
Use the power button to turn off the system instantly or with “soft-off”
control. When soft-off is selected, pressing the power button will cause
the system to enter Sleep (Suspend) mode. With soft-off, the system
won’t turn off unless you continuously hold the power button for 4
seconds or longer. This prevents you from accidentally turning off the
system.
System Sleep (Suspend) Mode
To conserve energy, the system employs the following measures when
in Sleep (Suspend) mode:
The CPU stops running
The chipset and related circuits go to the lowest power state
The hard disk stops spinning
The monitor goes blank
The CPU cooling fan and system fan are turned off
The Power LED indicator on the front panel dims when the system
is in Suspend mode. (If you are using a 3-pin LED, it can display a
different color when the system is in Suspend mode).
Desktop Management Interface (DMI)
Supports DMI through the BIOS, which creates a higher level of
compatibility by allowing hardware to communicate with a standard
protocol.
