3.6 Power on your Nuvo-3100 Series
For better flexibility of operation, Nuvo-3100 series provides three alternatives to power on
your Nuvo-3100. You can turn on your Nuvo-3100 by pressing the power button, using an
external non-latched on/off switch, or by sending a special LAN packet. In this section, we
illustrate these ways to power on your Nuvo-3100.
3.6.1
Power on Nuvo-3100 Series Using the Power Button
This is the simplest way to turn on your Nuvo-3100 series. The power button on the front
panel is a non-latched switch and behaves the ATX-mode on/off control. As DC power is
connected, push the power button will turn on the system as well as the PWR LED indicator.
Push the button when system is on will turn off the system. If your operating system
supports ATX power mode (i.e. Microsoft Windows or Linux), push the power button causes
a pre-defined system behavior, such as shutdown or hibernation.
3.6.2
Power on Nuvo-3100 Series Using External Latched Switch
For applications which place Nuvo-3100 series inside a cabinet, it’s useful to control the
on/off of the system using an external switch. You can take advantage of V+ and IGN input
of Nuvo-3100VTC/3120 to connect the latched switch for remote on/off control. To power
on Nuvo-3100VTC/3120 using an external latched switch, please follow the steps listed
below
Note: This function is available for Nuvo-3100VTC/3120 Rev. A2 or later revision.
1. Set the IGN On/Off Delay rotary switch to position 2.
