Note: The diskette drive is an optional feature on some models. IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connectors Use these connectors (four-pin on the front and six-pin on the rear) to connect FireWire devices, such as a digital video camera or an external hard disk drive. USB connectors Use these connectors to connect USB devices to the computer, using redundant Plug and Play technology. Microphone connector (pink) Use this connector to connect a microphone to the computer when you want to record voices or other sounds on the hard disk. You can also use this connector (and a microphone) with speech-recognition software. Line out connector (green) Use this connector to send audio signals from the computer to external devices, such as speakers with built-in amplifiers, headphones, a multimedia keyboard, or the audio line-in jack on a stereo system. Hard disk drive activity LED When this LED is lit, it indicates that the hard disk drive is in use. System-error LED When this LED is lit, it indicates that a system error has occurred. An LED on the system board might also be lit to help isolate the error. If the LED on the system board is not lit, check the error log. Ethernet activity LED When this LED is lit, it indicates that there is activity between the computer and the network. There are two of these LEDs, one on the front and one on the rear of the computer. Power-on LED When this LED is lit, it indicates that the computer is turned on. Power-control button Press this button to turn the computer on or off. Turning on the computer When the computer is connected to an ac power source but is not turned on, the operating system does not run, and all core logic is shut down; however, the computer can respond to remote requests to turn on the computer. Notes: 1. Turn on all external devices, such as the monitor, before you turn on the computer. 2. The power-on LED on the front of the computer is lit when the computer is on and while it is being turned on. Approximately 20 seconds after the computer is connected to ac power, the power-control button becomes active, and you can turn on the computer and start the operating system by pressing the power-control button. The computer can also be turned on in any of the following ways: v If a power failure occurs while the computer is turned on, the computer will restart automatically when power is restored. 10 IBM IntelliStation M Pro Type 9229: User's Guide
