is configured, connectionless data transfer to and from portable devices such as
laptops, PDA is possible.
Sleep Button (Green Button)
This connector is used to conserve energy by powering down the monitor and the
hard disk when not in use. To configure this option, you need to connect a button
from the front panel to this connector. Depressing the button will power down the
monitor and hard drives until the system is invoked by any keyboard activity, mouse
activity, modem activity or when the sleep button is depressed again. APM
(Advanced Power Management) must be enabled in the system BIOS and the APM
driver must be loaded.
Power Button
This connector can be attached to a front panel power switch. The switch must pull
the Power Button pin to ground for at least 50 ms to signal the power supply to switch
on or off. (The time required is due to internal debounce circuitry on the system
board). At least two seconds must pass before the power supply will recognize
another on/off signal.
