Automatic Power-On features

The Automatic Power-On features within the Power Management menu allow you to enable and disable features that turn on the computer automatically.

vSerial Port A Ring Detect: With this feature set to Enabled and an external modem connected to serial port (COM1), the computer will turn on automatically when a ring is detected on the modem.

vPCI Modem Ring Detect: With this feature set to Enabled, the computer will turn on automatically when a ring is detected on the internal modem.

vPCI Wake Up: This feature allow PCI cards that support this capability to wake the system.

vWake Up on Alarm: You can specify a date and time at which the computer will be turned on automatically. This can be either a single event or a daily event.

vWake on LAN: If the computer has a properly configured token-ring or Ethernet LAN adapter card that is Wake on LAN-enabled and there is remote network management software, you can use the IBM-developed Wake on LAN feature. When you set Wake on LAN to Enabled, the computer will turn on when it receives a specific signal from another computer on the local area network (LAN).
