Chapter 2: Installation

CMOS Clear

Refer to the table on the right for instructions on how to clear CMOS. Always remove the AC power cord from the system be- fore clearing CMOS.

Note: For an ATX power supply, you must completely shut down the sys- tem, remove the AC power cord, then use JBAT1 to clear CMOS. Replace JBT1 back to the pin 1-2 position be- fore powering up the system again. Do not use the Power Button con- nector to clear CMOS.

Keyboard Wake-Up

The JPWAKE jumper is used to- gether with the Keyboard Wake-Up function in BIOS. Enable both the jumper and the BIOS setting to al- low the system to be woken up by depressing a key on the keyboard. See the table on the right for pin definitions.

Note: Your power supply must meet ATX specification 2.01 or higher and supply 720 mA of standby power to use this feature.

SCSI Ch A/B Termination

The SCSI Channel A/B termination jumpers (JPA1/JPA2) are used to enable operation of the onboard SCSI. See the table on the right for jumper settings.
