Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Setup

Watch Dog Enable/Disable

Jumper JWD controls the Watch Dog function. Watch Dog is a system moni- tor that can reboot the system when a software application hangs. Jumping pins 1-2 will cause WD to reset the sys- tem if an application hangs. Jumping pins 2-3 will generate a non-maskable interrupt signal for the application that hangs. See the table on the right for jumper settings. Watch Dog must also be enabled in BIOS.

BMC Enable/Disable

JPB1 is used to enable or disable the BMC (Baseboard Management Con- trol) chip and the onboard IPMI con- nection. This jumper is used together with the IPMI settings in the BIOS. See the table on the right for jumper settings.

USB Wake-Up (JPUSB1)

Use the JPUSB1 jumper to enable system "wake-up" via a USB device. This jumper allows you to "wake-up" the system by pressing a key on the USB keyboard or by clicking the USB mouse of your system. The JPUSB1 jumper is used together with the USB Wake-Up function in the BIOS. Enable both the jumper and the BIOS set- ting to activate this function. See the table on the right for jumper settings and jumper connections.

Note: The default jumper setting is "Dis- abled". When the "USB Wake-Up" function is enabled, it will be active on all USB ports.
