Dual Function Power Button
Depending on the setting in the Soft-Off By PWR-BTTN field of the Power
Management Setup, this switch will allow the system to enter the Soft-Off or
Suspend mode.
External Modem Ring-on
The Modem Ring-on feature allows the system that is in the Suspend mode or
Soft Power Off mode to wake-up/power-on to respond to incoming calls. This
feature supports external modem only.

power-on on the set date and time.
Wake-On-LAN Ready
The Wake-On-LAN function allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft
Power Down (Soft-Off) PC. Your LAN card must support the remote wakeup
function.
Important:
If you are using the (1) Suspend to RAM, (2) Wake-On-Keyboard/Mouse and
(3) Wake-On-LAN functions all at the same time, the 5VSB power source of
your power supply must support a minimum of
≥
1A. A
≥
720mA 5VSB
power source is sufficient if you are using only one or two of these functions.
Wake-On-Keyboard/Wake-On-Mouse
This function allows you to use the keyboard or PS/2 mouse to power-on the
system. Refer to Jumper Settings for Wake-On-Keyboard/Mouse in chapter 2
and Setting the Wake-On-Keyboard/Mouse Function in chapter 3 for more
information.

set in the KB Power On Password field of the Integrated Peripherals
submenu. You must type the correct password to power-on the system. If
you forgot the password, power-off the system and remove the battery.
Wait for a few seconds and install it back before powering-on the
system.
If you are using the (1) Suspend to RAM, (2) Wake-On-Keyboard/Mouse
and (3) Wake-On-LAN functions all at the same time, the 5VSB power
source of your power supply must support a minimum of
≥
1A. A
≥
720mA 5VSB power source is sufficient if you are using only one or
two of these functions.
