settings (usually IrDA or FIR). These settings will disable the external COM2
serial port connector and assign the resources to the infrared device. If you have
selected an IR mode, use the following item UR2 Duplex Mode to define if the IR
port is full duplex or half duplex.
RxD, TxD Active
This item lets you set the Read and Transfer transmission speeds for infrared
communication.
IR Transmission delay
This item lets you enable a transmission delay for infrared communication.
Onboard Parallel Port
This item lets you disable the built-in parallel port, or enable it by assigning an I/
O address and an Interrupt Request Line (IRQ).
Parallel Port Mode
ECP Mode Use DMA
EPP Mode Select
This item defines the operation of the parallel port. As a default it is set to SPP
(standard parallel port). If you are connected to a parallel device that supports
the higher-performance EPP (enhanced parallel port) or the ECP (extended
capabilities port) make the appropriate changes to this item. If you have changed
the parallel port to ECP mode, use the following item ECP Mode Use DMA to
assign a DMA channel to the port. If you are using EPP mode, use the next item
to select the EPP mode version.
PWRON After PWR-Fail
If this item is enabled, the system will automatically resume when power is
restored after an interruption in the power supply.

Power Management Setup Option

This option displays items that let you control the system power
management. Modern operating systems take care of much of the power
management. This mainboard supports ACPI (advanced configuration
and power interface). The system has various power saving modes
including powering down the hard disk, turning off the video, suspending
to RAM, and a software power down that allows the system to be
automatically resumed by certain events.
Power Management Timeouts
The power-saving modes can be controlled by timeouts. If the system is
inactive for a time, the timeouts begin counting. If the inactivity continues
so that the timeout period elapses, the system enters a power-saving
mode. If any item in the list of Reload Global Timer Events is Enabled,
then any activity on that item will reset the timeout counters to zero.
