H8DI3+/I+(-F) Serverboard User’s Manual

Wake-On-LAN (WOL)

Wake-On-LAN is deﬁned as the ability of a management application to remotely power up a computer that is powered off. Remote PC setup, up-dates and access tracking can occur after hours and on weekends so that daily LAN trafﬁc is kept to a minimum and users are not interrupted. The serverboard has a 3-pin header (WOL) to connect to the 3-pin header on a Network Interface Card (NIC) that has WOL capability. Wake-On-LAN must be enabled in BIOS.

Wake-On-Ring Header (WOR)

Wake-up events can be triggered by a device such as the external modem ringing when the system is in the SoftOff state.

1-6 Power Supply

As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU clock rates.

The H8DI3+/I+(-F) Serverboard requires the use of proprietary power supplies. Please refer to the pinout information for the power connectors in Section 6 of Chapter 2 for detailed information on power requirements.

In areas where noisy power transmission is present, you may choose to install a line ﬁlter to shield the computer from noise. It is recommended that you also install a power surge protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.

Warning: To prevent the possibility of explosion, do not use the wrong type of onboard CMOS battery or install it upside down.
