Indicator LEDs
The motherboard front panel features connector supports
three system status indicator LEDs:
• Power Status LED Indicator
Lights when the system is turned on.
• Hard Disk Drive Activity LED Indicator
Flashes during hard disk drive access.
• Power Conservation Mode LED Indicator
Lights to indicate the system is in a Suspend state
power conservation mode.
Most system housings will have all of these LEDs mounted
in the housing’s front panel.
Additional System Features
There are two additional system features, LAN LED indi-
cators and Wake On LAN.
LAN Indicator LEDs
The RJ-45 LAN jack on the rear I/O panel has two indi-
cator LEDs mounted above it.
• Activity LED (on left)
Flashes when the LAN connection is active.
• Link LED (on right)
Lights to indicate the LAN is connected.
Wake-on LAN (WOL)
Function: The system “wakes up”, i.e. resumes from a
Suspend state, in response to a signal arriving over a
LAN that it is connected to.
Use: The onboard LAN interface supports the WOL fea-
ture. In addition, the onboard WOL connector supports
connection to an additional PCI Network Interface Card.
The WOL cable from the card connects to the WOL con-
nector on the board.
The feature is enabled by default in the Power Manage-
ment section of the CMOS Setup Utility and functions
automatically.
