4.5.1Power Up Control

AC PWR Loss Restart: [Disabled]

This allows you to set whether you want your system to boot up after the power has been interrupted. [Disabled] leaves your system off after reapplying power and [En- abled] boots up your system after reapplying power. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

PWR Up On Modem Act: [Enabled]

This allows either settings of [Enabled] or [Disabled] for powering up the computer (turns the ATX power supply on) when the modem receives a call while the computer is in Soft-off.

NOTE: The computer cannot receive or transmit data until the computer and applica- tions are fully running, thus connection cannot be made on the first try. Turning an external modem off and then back on while the computer is off causes an initialization string that will also cause the system to power on. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

Wake On LAN: [Enabled]

Wake-On-LAN allows your computer to be booted from another computer via a net- work by sending a wake-up frame or signal. With this feature, network administrators can remotely boot an entire network of computer systems during off-peak hours for software updating or maintainance. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

IMPORTANT: This feature requires an optional network interface with Wake- On-LAN and an ATX power supply with at least 720mA +5V standby power.

Automatic Power Up: [Disabled]

This allows automatic system power up. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
