The Power Button is a non-latched switch. To power on the system, press the power
button and then the Green LED is lightened. To power o󰀨 the system, you can either
command shutdown by OS operation or just simply press the power button. If system
error, you can just press the power button for 4 seconds to shut down the machine
directly. Please do note that a 4-second interval between each 2 power-on/power-o󰀨
operation is necessary in normal working status. (For example, once turning o󰀨 the
system, you have to wait for 4 seconds to initiate another power-on operation.)
Power LED/Green (Left) : If the LED is solid green, it indicates that the system
is powered on.
HDD LED/Orange (Right) : If the LED is on, it indicates that the system's storage
is functional. If it is o󰀨, it indicates that the system's storage is not functional. If it
is ashing, it indicates data access activities.
