2.3.11 Panel Connector
The Panel (multifunction) connector is
a 20-pin connector marked as PANEL
on the board. Attach the power LED,
keylock, speaker, SPWR, IDE LED
and reset switch to the corresponding
pins as shown in the figure. Some
housings have a five-pin connector for
the keylock and power LED. Since
power LED and keylock are aligned
together, you can still use this kind of
connector. If your ATX housing
supports ACPI specification, the ACPI
& Power LED will keep flashing if you
have enabled “suspend mode” item in
BIOS Setup.
