BIOS SETUP

Soft-Off by PWRBTN

This field defines the power-off mode when using an ATX power supply. The Instant Off mode allows powering off immediately upon pressing the power button. In the Delay 4 Sec mode, the system powers off when the power button is pressed for more than four seconds or enters the suspend mode when pressed for less than 4 seconds.

Wake up by PCI Card

By default, this field is disabled.

Power On by Ring

This field enables or disables the power on of the system through the modem connected to the serial port or LAN.

Resume by Alarm

This field enables or disables the resumption of the system operation. When enabled, the user is allowed to set the Date and Time.

Reload Global Timer Events

The HDD, FDD, COM, LPT Ports, and PCI PIRQ are I/O events that can prevent the system from entering a power saving mode or can awaken the system from such a mode. When an I/O device wants to gain the attention of the operating system, it signals this by causing an IRQ to occur. When the operating system is ready to respond to the request, it interrupts itself and performs the service.
