Power-On/Off (Remote)

The EP-3VCA2 has a single 20-pin connector for ATX power supplies. For ATX

power supplies that support the Remote On/Off feature, this should be connected

to the systems front panel for system Power On/Off button. The systems power
On/Off button should be a momentary button that is normally open.

The EP-3VCA2 has been designed with “Soft Off" functions. You can turn Off the

system from one of two sources: The first is the front panel Power On/Off
button, and the other is the "Soft Off" function (coming from the EP-3VCA2’s

onboard circuit controller) that can be controlled by the operating system such as

Windows 95/98. System will be turn off automatically after your click the START
button and resume the Shutdown selection.
