Intel Desktop Board DQ67OW Product Guide Software Support ACPI ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug and Play functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with the Desktop Board requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. Hardware Support Power Connectors ATX12V-compliant power supplies can turn off the computer power through system control. When an ACPI-enabled computer receives the correct command, the power supply removes all non-standby voltages. When resuming from an AC power failure, the computer returns to the power state it was in before power was interrupted (either on or off). The computer's response can be set by using the Last Power State feature in the BIOS Setup program's Boot menu. The Desktop Board has two power connectors. See Figure 25 on page 58 for the location of the power connectors. Fan Headers The function/operation of the fans is as follows: • The fans are on when the board is in the ACPI S0 state. • The fans are off when the computer is in the ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state. • Each fan header is wired to a tachometer input. • All fan headers support closed-loop fan control that can adjust the fan speed or switch the fan on or off as needed. • All fan headers have a +12 V DC connection. • All fan headers are controlled by Pulse Width Modulation. • The front and rear chassis fans support Linear Fan Control on 3-wire fans. The Desktop Board has a 4-pin processor fan header and two 4-pin chassis fan headers that are compatible with 4-wire and 3-wire chassis fans. LAN Wake Capabilities CAUTION For LAN wake capabilities, the 5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of delivering adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when using this feature can damage the power supply. LAN wakeup capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network. The LAN subsystem monitors network traffic and upon detecting a Magic Packet* frame, it asserts a wake-up signal that powers up the computer. 28

Software Support
ACPI
ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug
and Play functions of a computer.
The use of ACPI with the Desktop Board requires an
operating system that provides full ACPI support.
Hardware Support
Power Connectors
ATX12V-compliant power supplies can turn off the computer power through system
control.
When an ACPI-enabled computer receives the correct command, the power
supply removes all non-standby voltages.
When resuming from an AC power failure, the computer returns to the power state it
was in before power was interrupted (either on or off).
The computer’s response can
be set by using the Last Power State feature in the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu.
The Desktop Board has two power connectors.
See Figure 25 on page 58 for the
location of the power connectors.
Fan Headers
The function/operation of the fans is as follows:
The fans are on when the board is in the ACPI S0 state.
The fans are off when the computer is in the ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state.
Each fan header is wired to a tachometer input.
All fan headers support closed-loop fan control that can adjust the fan speed or
switch the fan on or off as needed.
All fan headers have a +12 V DC connection.
All fan headers are controlled by Pulse Width Modulation.
The front and rear chassis fans support Linear Fan Control on 3-wire fans.
The Desktop Board has a 4-pin processor fan header and two 4-pin chassis fan
headers that are compatible with 4-wire and 3-wire chassis fans.
LAN Wake Capabilities
CAUTION
For LAN wake capabilities, the 5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable
of delivering adequate +5 V standby current.
Failure to provide adequate standby
current when using this feature can damage the power supply.
LAN wakeup capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network.
The LAN subsystem monitors network traffic and upon detecting a Magic Packet*
frame, it asserts a wake-up signal that powers up the computer.
