440EX/LX AT
MAINBOARD
INSTALLATION
2-3
In order to use the ring-in signal to wake up your PC system, you will have to use
the
EXTERNAL MODEM
and have it connected to one of the
SERIAL PORTS
( COMA or COM B ). When the system power is off, this mainboard will continue
to detect the serial port status. When it detects the ring-in signal from the serial
port, the system power will be turned on and start to receive the incoming messages
automatically. ( you need to have the software like Award Zero-Volt Data-Suspend
Utility so that you can use the fax utility to receive the incoming fax message ).
To enable the Modem Ring-In feature, you have to run the BIOS setup utility and
enable the “Resume by Ring or LAN” option (it is located in the “POWER
MANAGEMENT SETUP”, please refer to Section 4-7
for the settings). Having
completed the BIOS setup, you have to reboot the PC system so that BIOS can
verify the setting. (the “DMI pool data” will be verified by the BIOS when loading
the operating system). Simply speaking, shut down the PC system and then re-start
the system. The modem ring-in feature will be enabled when the operation system
has been loaded.
Note: This function is not available when using the internal MODEM card.
¨
WAKE ON LAN ( WOL )
There is a WOL connector CN14 (see Section 3-2) on the mainboard which is
designed to connect to the signal from a LAN card which supports the Wake On
LAN feature. When such LAN card is installed, you may turn on the PC system
from your remote server and monitor the PC status.
To enable this feature, you will have to use the BIOS setup utility to enable the
“Resume by Ring or LAN” (it is located at “POWER MANAGEMENT SETUP”,
please refer to Section 4-7 for the settings). Having completed the BIOS setup, you
have to reboot the PC system so that BIOS can verify the setting. ( the “DMI pool
data” will be verified by the BIOS when loading the operating system). Simply
speaking, reboot the PC system, the Wake On LAN feature will be enabled when the
operation system has been loaded
Note: This function will be disabled if you turn off the power before the system
can verify the DMI pool data.
