Instantly Available PC Technology

CAUTION

For Instantly Available PC technology, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing Instantly Available PC technology can damage the power supply.

The S875WP1-E server board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification. An add-in board that supports this specification can participate in power management and can be used to wake the computer.

The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and PCI 2.2 compliant add-in cards and drivers.

The standby power indicator LED shows that power is still present even when the computer appears to be off. Figure 4 shows the location of the standby power indicator LED.

CAUTION

If AC power has been switched off and the standby power indicator is still lit, disconnect the power cord before installing or removing any devices connected to the board. Failure to do so could damage the board and any attached devices.
