USB +5V outoput

[Takenaka]

Hi,

USB mouse lights even while power is off.
Maybe +5V of is ON always.
Usualy, it must be OFF while power is OFF.
Is it possible to change?

Usually this option is available in the BIOS configuration, but I just look and this option is not available.

Edit: USB 5V is present at standby (S3). We will soon release a patch for Windows to allow wake-up from USB.

USB is not powered when fit-PC2 is in standby.

You might want to double check that irads, I got a USB powered fan ( I don't like how hot the fit-pc got) and it still operates when the device is powered off.

I ordered mine with the understanding that USB was NOT powered when off, as I have USB drives on these ports. Now I am stuck with hard drives spinning when the FitPC2 is powered down.
Is it possible to get the option added to BIOS to disable power to USB ports when the FitPC2 is shutdown? If it's in BIOS at least it's a user option.

The USB 5V cannot be disabled when power is off. You may be able to spin-down the disks before shutdown.

First, does this mean I can resume from suspend using a USB device and if so did this ever happen? I have tried the WakeUp app but I dont want it to resume at a specific time, I want to be able to wake it up with a ACPI pulse through a USB port. I.E. IR receiver or in my case a Carnetix P2140. OPr is there any way to take a non auto power on (even though that is what I ordered but didnt get) to power on when power is resumed, for example solder a resister to the power button or something? I know that voids the warranty but unless I can exchange it for one with auto power on after 3 months of having the unit this is my only option.

Thanks,
Dave
