Power/LED Connections

The Antec TruePower supply is an ATX12V form factor power supply. An ATX12V power supply has a single 20-pin Main Power Connector, a 6-pin AUX Power Connector, and a

4-pin +12V Power Connector for the motherboard. It also comes with seven 4-pin Peripheral Power Connectors and two 4-pin Floppy Drive Power Connectors for your drives. It is backwards compatible to previous ATX form factor power supplies. If your motherboard does not support the AUX Power Connector or the +12V Power Connector, you can still use this power supply.

The TruePower power supply is also equipped with a 3-pin fan signal connector. Connect it to one of the fan connectors on your motherboard. You may monitor the speed of the rear power supply fan through your motherboard BIOS or through the monitoring software that comes with your motherboard.

Note: The speed of the fan go as low as 1500 RPM when the temperature is low. At these speeds some motherboards may not be able to detect the fan speed adjustment during the boot up stage. Please refer to your motherboard manual for proper fan monitoring set up.

1.Connect the 20-pin ATX power connector and other power connectors to your motherboard.

2.Reset (labeled RESET SW) connects to your motherboard at the RST connector. The label should be facing the front of the case, and for all of the following connectors as well.

3.Power LED (labeled POWER LED) connector is located behind the Reset connector.

4.Power Switch (labeled POWER SW) connects to the PWR connector on the motherboard.

5.Speaker (labeled SPEAKER) connector is behind the PWR connector.

6.Hard Drive LED (labeled H.D.D. LED) connects to the IDE connector.

7.LED I, LED II connectors: This case comes with two extra LED marked LED I, LED II. You may use these LED for various purposes such as SCSI LED, Message LED (blinks when your modem received fax or mail).

USB Connection

There are 8 wires with connectors coming out from the front mounted USB ports of the case.

1.Locate the internal USB port on your motherboard. It should contain 10-pins in two rows.

Note: On some motherboards one or two pins may be marked as NC. This indicates no contact. It is an empty pin. You don't need to use it. On some motherboards one pin may be missing on either one or both rows. Don't worry about it. You only need 8 pins to connect to.

2.Consult your motherboard manual to get each of the pin-out positions.

3.Power Pins: There are two power pins, one on each row. They are usually marked as Power, Vcc or +5V. Connect the two +5V connectors to the two power pins. Each connector can go to either pin.

4.Ground Pins: There are two ground pins, one on each row. They are usually marked as Ground or GND. Connect the two GROUND connectors to the two ground pins. Each connector can go to either pin.

Note: On some motherboards, there may be two ground pins on one row. You don't need to use all of them. Make sure to connect one ground pin on each row.

5.Data Pins: There are two plus data pins, one on each row, and two minus data pins, one on each row. They are usually marked as USBD2+, USBD3+ and USBD2-, USBD3- or USBP2+, USBP3+ and USBP2-, USBP3- respectively.

a.Connect the 1 +D connector to any of the two plus data pins. It can go to either of the plus pin.

b.Connect the 1 -Dconnector to the minus data pin in the same row with the plus data pin that 1 +D connector has just connected to.

c.Repeat the same procedures to connect the 2 +D and 2 -D to the motherboard. Make sure they are in the same row.
