Line out This connector is used to send audio signals from the computer to external devices, such as powered speakers with built-in amplifiers, headphones, multimedia keyboards, or the audio Line in jack on a stereo system. Line in This connector is used to accept audio signals from external devices, such as line output from a stereo, television, or a musical instrument, into the computer sound system. Mic This connector is used to connect a microphone to your computer when you want to record voice or other sounds on the hard disk. This connector and a microphone can also be used by speech recognition software.

MIDI The musical instrument digital interface (MIDI) connector allows your computer to interact with musical instruments and other musical equipment. Managing your computer Your computer comes with features that a network administrator or file server can use to remotely manage and control your computer. IBM Universal Manageability Services (UM Services) streamline and automate personal computer (PC) systems management and support tasks, such as asset deployment and tracking. These utilities are available for IBM PCs at no additional charge, helping to reduce total cost of ownership of your networked computers so that you can focus vital company resources on essential business activities. Go to http://www.ibm.com/pc/us/software/sysmgmt/ on the World Wide Web and select Products/downloads for more information about available system management programs. Wake on LAN A network administrator can use Wake on LAN to turn on your computer from a remote location. When Wake on LAN is used with network management software, many functions, such as data transfers, software updates, and POST or BIOS updates to your computer, can be initiated remotely. Note: If the computer power cord is plugged into a surge protector or power strip, make sure that when you turn off power, you turn off the computer power button and not the surge protector or power strip switch. Otherwise, the Wake on LAN feature will not work. Remote Program Load or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol A network administrator can use Remote Program Load (RPL) or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to control your computer. If you use RPL with software, such as IBM LANClient Control Manager, you can use a feature called 22 IBM® IntelliStation® E Pro: User's Guide IntelliStation E Pro Types 6836, 6846
