User’s Manual

Chassis Intrusion Switch Connector JP12

Function: Connector for Chassis intrusion switch.

Description: The hardware monitor subsystem supports a chassis security feature that detects if the chassis (sys- tem housing) cover is removed. When the cover is re- moved, a signal is sent to the hardware monitor compo- nent. The chassis intrusion circuit is powered by the system power supply when the computer is connected to AC power or by the onboard battery when it is not.

This feature uses a mechanical switch on the chassis that connects to the chassis intrusion connector on the motherboard. When the chassis cover is removed the motherboard circuitry will detect the intrusion.
