Power LED Indications
A dual-color LED located on the front panel (bezel) is used to indicate system power status. The
front panel (bezel) power LED provides a visual indication of key system conditions listed as
follows:
Power LED
Steady green
Blinks green @ 0.5 Hz
Blinks red 2 times @ 1 Hz [1]
Blinks red 3 times @ 1 Hz [1]
nks red 4 times @ 1 Hz [1]
Bli
Blinks red 5 times @ 1 Hz [1]
Blinks red 6 times @ 1 Hz [1]
Blinks red 7 times @ 1 Hz [1]
Blinks red 8 times @ 1 Hz [1]
Blinks red 9 times @ 1 Hz [1]
Blinks red 10 times @ 1 Hz [1]
No light
NOTE:
[1] Will be accompanied by the same number of beeps, with 2-second pause between cycles. Beeps
stop after 5 cycles.
Wake Up Events
The PS On signal can be activated with a power "wake-up" of the system due to the occurrence
of a magic packet, serial port ring, or PCI power management (PME) event. These events can be
individually enabled through the Setup utility to wake up the system from a sleep (low power)
state.
Wake-up functionality requires that certain circuits receive auxiliary power while the system is
turned off. The system unit must be plugged into a live AC outlet for wake up events to function.
Using an AC power strip to control system unit power will disable wake-up event functionality.
