Power Button

The PW_ON connector is located on pins 1 and 2 of JF1. Momen- tarily contacting both pins will power on/off the system. The user can also configure the power on button to function as a suspend button (see the Power Button Mode setting in BIOS). To turn off the power when set to suspend mode, hold down the power but- ton for at least 4 seconds. See the table on the right for pin defini- tions.

Reset Button

The Reset connector is located on pins 3 and 4 of JF1. This connec- tor attaches to the hardware reset switch on the computer case . See the table on the right for pin definitions.

Overheat LED

The Overheat LED connector is lo- cated on pins 7 and 8 of JF1. It attaches to an LED to to provide warning of chassis overheating. See Table 2-6 for pin definitions.

NIC1/2 LED

The NIC1/2 (LAN) LED connectors are located on pins 9&10/11&12 of JF1. Attach the NIC LED cable to the correct pins for each LAN. See the table on the right for pin definitions.
