Restore on AC/Power Loss [Power Off]

This allows you to set whether you want your system to reboot after the power has been interrupted. [Power Off] leaves your system off after reapplying power and [Power On] boots up your system after reapplying power. [Last state] returns your computer back to the state it is in before the power failure.

Ring Resume from Soft Off [Disabled]

This allows either setting of [Enable] or [Disable] for powering up the computer (turns the ATX power supply on) when the modem receives a call while the computer is off. NOTE: The computer cannot receive or transmit data until the computer and applications are fully running. Therefore 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.

LAN Resume from Soft Off [Disabled]

This allows you to remotely power up your system through your network by sending a wake-up frame or signal. With this feature, you can remotely upload/download data to/from systems during off-peak hours. Set to [Enabled] to use this feature.

IMPORTANT: This feature requires the ASUS PCI-L101 LAN Card (see APPENDIX ) or a similar ethernet card and an ATX power supply with at least 720mA +5V standby power.

RTC Alarm Resume From Soft Off [Disabled]RTC Alarm Date / Hour / Minute / Second

This allows you to have an unattended or automatic power up of your system. You may use the four parameters (Date, Hour, Minute, and Second) to configure your system to power up at a certain time of a day in a month by setting RTC Alarm Resume From Soft Off to [Enabled].
