2. Connect the white end of the Host Card Power Button Cable to the Power Button
Cable Connector on the Host Card. The Power Button Cable Connector on the Host
card is labeled “JP5 PWR BTN”.
3. Disconnect the PC’s front-panel On/Off switch cable from the motherboard’s header,
and locate the Power On/Off signal pins. Connect the red wire on the Host Card
Power Button Cable to the positive terminal of the Power On/Off pin, and the black
wire to the negative terminal. The negative terminal is typically a ground pin.
Note: The location of the Power On/Off switch pins is different from one PC
motherboard to another. Please refer to your motherboard user manual for details. If
you have the connector inverted connected to the positive and negative terminal on
the PC motherboard, you will not be able to power up the PC.
4. If possible, connect the PC’s front-panel On/Off switch cable to the 2-pin header on
the Host Card Power Button Cable. If this is not possible, the PC’s front-panel On/Off
Switch will be disabled.

remote power management. If you want to remotely power on the host PC, press the
Remote PC Power Button on Portal A or a key on the keyboard connected to Portal A.

If there is only one available PCIe slot for the Host Cards, reserve it for the master Host
Card and do not install Host Card B in the PCIe slot. You can configure Host Card B in
Standalone mode and do not have to install the slave Host Card into the host PC’s
motherboard.
