USB Wake-Up (Not Available on the

X7SPE-H-D525, X7SPA-H-D525, X7SPA-

HF-D525 and X7SPE-HF-D525)

Use JPUSB jumper to enable the function

of "System Waking-Up via USB devices".

This jumper allows you to "wake-up" the

system by pressing a key on the USB

keyboard or by clicking the USB mouse of

your system. The JPUSB jumper is used

together with the USB Wake-Up function in

the BIOS. Enable both the jumper and the

BIOS setting to activate this function. See

the table on the right for jumper settings

and jumper connections.

Note: The default jumper setting is "Dis-

abled". When the "USB Wake-Up" function

is enabled, it will be active on all USB

ports.
