Hardware Support

The board provides several power management hardware features, including:

• Wake from Power Button signal

When resuming from an AC power failure, the computer returns to the power state defined in the BIOS. Available states are “Power On”, “Stay Off”, and “Last State”.

• LAN wake capabilities

Enables remote wake-up of the computer through a network. The LAN subsystem monitors network traffic at the Media Independent Interface. Upon detecting a Magic Packet* frame, the LAN subsystem asserts a wake-up signal that powers up the computer.

• Wake from USB

USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3 state (not after G3).

NOTE

The use of Wake from USB from an ACPI state requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB.
