RES-22XR3 Installation Manual - Configuration 1 Version 1.3
The Remote On/Off Switch module is installed after first removing one of the existing RES-22XR3 for
X8DTH-iF/6F storage drives (any except the boot drive), then installing a cable with a standard male
DB9 connector at one end and an On/Off switch (an LED is
optional ) at the other end.
When operational, if the RES-22XR3 for X8DTH-iF/6F is turned OFF , pressing the remote switch ON
will turn the system on.
If the RES-22XR3 for X8DTH-iF/6F is turned ON , pressing the switch OFF for less than 4 seconds
will gracefully shut down the system through the BIOS; pressing the switch OFF for 4 seconds or more
results in a “hard” power off (equivalent to pulling the plug” on the system).
D.2 Remote On-Only Configuration
When the Remote On/Off Switch module is configured as an ON-only device, if the RES-22XR3 for
X8DTH-iF/6F is turned
OFF , pressing the remote switch ON will turn the system on. Turning the RES
system off, however, requires pressing the ON/OFF button that is located directly on the front of the
RES-22XR3 for X8DTH-iF/6F chassis.
D.3 Ordering the Remote On/Off Switch
Because internal modifications must be made to the RES-22XR3 for X8DTH-iF/6F in order to support
the Remote On/Off Switch module, the module must be ordered and installed at the time your system is
ordered.
