States For A One-Color Power Led; States For A Two-Color Power Led - Intel D845EPI Specification

Intel Desktop Board D845EPI Technical Product Specification
2.8.3.2.1 Hard Drive Activity LED Connector
Pins 1 and 3 can be connected to an LED to provide a visual indicator that data is being read from
or written to a hard drive. For the LED to function properly, an IDE drive must be connected to
the onboard IDE interface.
2.8.3.2.2 Reset Switch Connector
Pins 5 and 7 can be connected to a momentary SPST type switch that is normally open. When the
switch is closed, the Desktop Board resets and runs the POST.
2.8.3.2.3 Power/Sleep/Message Waiting LED Connector
Pins 2 and 4 can be connected to a one- or two-color LED. Table 28 shows the possible states for
a one-color LED. Table 29 shows the possible states for a two-color LED.

INTEGRATOR'S NOTE
To use the message waiting function, ACPI must be enabled in the operating system and a
message-capturing application must be invoked.
2.8.3.2.4 Power Switch Connector
Pins 6 and 8 can be connected to a front panel momentary-contact power switch. The switch must
pull the SW_ON# pin to ground for at least 50 ms to signal the power supply to switch on or off.
(The time requirement is due to internal debounce circuitry on the Desktop Board D845EPI.) At
least two seconds must pass before the power supply will recognize another on/off signal.
