1 - Floppy disk indicator
The indicator lights up when the floppy disk drive of the system unit is accessed. You may only
remove the floppy disk when the indicator is dark.
2 - CD-ROM indicator
The indicator lights up when the CD-ROM drive of the system unit is accessed. You may only
remove the CD when the indicator is dark.
3 - ON/OFF switch
Switches the PC on or off. With Windows 98 with ACPI or with Windows 2000 you can set additional
functions of the ON/OFF switch in the Control Panel.
4 - Power-on indicator
•
green:
The system unit is on.
•
orange:
The system unit is ready-to-operate.
In this mode the PC consumes very little power and can be switched on at the ON/OFF switch.
•
flashes green/orange:
The indicator only flashes on systems which support the ACPI function (Advanced
Configuration and Power Management Interface).
The system unit is in the energy-saving mode (standby). After being switched on with the
ON/OFF switch, the PC returns to the state it was in before the energy-saving mode. In the
energy-saving mode the system unit may not be disconnected from the mains supply, as this
may otherwise result in data loss.
