Thermal Sense (JP26, JP27) (Optional)
With the increasing performance, the components nowadays always gener-
ate enormous heat inside the system, such as CPU, VGA card, HDD, and so
on. In the meanwhile, they are the most important components while we
concern about the stability of the system. The thermal sensor provides a
convenient and flexible way of an extensible sensor for users to detect the
temperature of any component.
For example, you can just plug the
sliced sensor into the narrow
opening between CPU and heat-
sink to monitor accurate tempera-
ture.
IR Connector (JP9)
The IrDA connector can be configured to support wireless infrared module,
with this module and application software such as Laplink or Windows 95
Direct Cable Connection, the user can transfer files to or from laptops, note-
books, PDA devices and printers. This connector supports HPSIR
(115.2Kbps, 2 meters) and ASK-IR (56Kbps).
Install the infrared module onto the IrDA connector and enable the infrared
function from BIOS Setup, Integrated Peripherals > UART 2 Mode, make
sure to have the correct orientation when you plug in the IrDA connector.
