Front Panel Logo Module

This module is attached to the front panel of the Quintessence AV Chassis. It extends the following internal

signals to the front panel:

• 1 x Power switch

• 1 x Reset switch

• 1 x IDE led

These three functions are displayed through the Merging logo (a) located on the chassis front panel. This

logo glows blue when the PC is in stand by (b) and shines brightly when the PC is ON (c). Each HD access

makes the smaller part of the Merging logo (reset) shine more brightly.

(a) (b) (c)

Internally (on the back of the logo), the module looks like this:

A triple ribbon cable is directly soldered on the pcb and provides connectivity for the motherboard power,

reset and HD activity LED headers.

Connect these three connectors as described below:

Plug the red wire side of the POWER SW connector onto the + pin of the motherboard POWER switch

header.

Plug the RESET SW connector onto the motherboard RESET switch header. The polarity is not important.

Plug the HDD LED connector onto the motherboard HDD header. The upper wire (when viewed as on the

above picture) must be connected on the + pin of the HDD header.
