1.14 System Power On/Off Control
System power can be turned on by a power button, a modem ring, an
alarm, a PS/2 Keyboard or a PS/2 Mouse. To enable the “Modem Ring
on” feature, the option “Resume by Ring” in the BIOS Power
Management Setup has to be set to “Enabled”. To enable the “Alarm
on” feature, the option “Resume by Alarm” in the BIOS Power
Management Setup has to be set to “Enabled”. To enable the “Power -
On by PS/2 Keyboard or PS/2 Mouse” feature, the option “POWER
On Function” in the BIOS Integrated Peripherals Setup has to be set to
“Keyboard 98” or “Mouse Left/Right. in the BIOS accordingly.
System power can be turned off in one of two ways: a front panel
power button or soft-off control. When the option “Soft off by PWR-
BTTN” in the BIOS Power Management Setup is set to “Instant-Off”,
pressing the power button will immediately turn off the system power.
But if the “Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN” option is set to “Delay 4 Sec.”,
you have to press the power button and hold it for more than 4 seconds
to turn off the system power. The system power can also be turned off
via software control. The system BIOS will turn the system power off
when it receives the proper APM command from the Operating
System. For example, Windows 98 will issue Soft Off APM command
when the user selects “Shutdown” in Start Menu. In order for the Soft
Off feature to work properly, Power Management/APM must be
enabled in the system BIOS and Operating System.
The P6F104 Auto Power On feature gives you the option to turn on
the system power automatically when the AC power failure happen, is
especially useful for the server application. To enable the “Auto Power
on” feature, the option “PWRON After PWR-Fail” in the BIOS Power
Management Setup has to be set to “On”. When “PWRON After PWR-
fail” sets to “Former-Sts”, system will remember the power status (on
or off) before power failure and set according when AC power comes
back.
