2.6 AC’97 Audio Codec Controller

The integrated AC’97 Audio compliant audio controller on the Intel® ICH7M Southbridge

is integrated to a Realtek ALC888 audio codec. The Realtek ALC888 is connected to an

amplifier which powers the two 1.5 Watt speakers.

2.7 System Power

The system can be run in the AT power mode or the ATX power mode. Both these power

modes are described below.

2.7.1.1 ATX Power Mode (Default)

With the ATX mode selected, the AFL-4 Series-N270 panel PC goes in a standby mode

when it is turned off. The panel PC can be easily turned on via network or a power switch

in standby mode. Remote power control is perfect for advertising applications since the

broadcasting time for each panel PC can be set individually and controlled remotely. Other

possible application includes

Security

surveillance

terminal

2.7.1.2 AT Power Mode

With the AT mode selected, the power is controlled by a central power unit rather than a

power switch. The AFL-4 Series-N270 panel PC turns on automatically when the power is

connected. The AT mode benefits a production line to control multiple panel PCs from a

central management center and other applications including:

ATM

Self-service

kiosk

Plant environment monitoring system
