Front Panel Logo Module
This module is attached to the front panel of the Quintessence AV Chassis. It extends the following internal
signals to the front panel:
•
1 x Power switch
•
1 x Reset switch
•
1 x IDE led
These three functions are displayed through the Merging logo (a) located on the chassis front panel. This
logo glows blue when the PC is in stand by (b) and shines brightly when the PC is ON (c). Each HD access
makes the smaller part of the Merging logo (reset) shine more brightly.
