There are t wo m ain support ed power supply configurat ions, Deskt op and Mobile. The
Deskt op solut ion consist s of only using t he ATX power supply. The Mobile solut ion
consist s of only using t he AC Brick.
Not e:
Deskt op peripherals, including add- in cards, will not work in m obile power m ode. I f
deskt op peripherals are used, t he plat form m ust be powered using deskt op power
