Power: The main power button is used to apply or remove power from the power
supply to the system. When the power is on, the power button will be lighted by ablue LED. Turning off the system power with this button will cause the blue LED
to turn off and will remove the main power, but will keep standby power supplied
to the system. Therefore, you must unplug system before servicing the system.
