HDCP Function

HDCP function is supported on this motherboard. To use HDCP

function with this motherboard, you need to adopt the monitor that

supports HDCP function as well. Therefore, you can enjoy the

superior display quality with high-definition HDCP encryption

contents. Please refer to below instruction for more details about

HDCP function.

What is HDCP?

HDCP stands for High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection, a

specification developed by Intel

®

for protecting digital entertainment

content that uses the DVI interface. HDCP is a copy protection

scheme to eliminate the possibility of intercepting digital data

midstream between the video source, or transmitter - such as a

computer, DVD player or set-top box - and the digital display, or

receiver - such as a monitor, television or projector. In other words,

HDCP specification is designed to protect the integrity of content as it

is being transmitted.

Products compatible with the HDCP scheme such as DVD players,

satellite and cable HDTV set-top-boxes, as well as few entertain-

ment PCs requires a secure connection to a compliant display. Due

to the increase in manufacturers employing HDCP in their equipment,

it is highly recommended that the HDTV or LCD monitor you purchase

is compatible.

Jumpers Setup

The illustration shows how jumpers are

setup. When the jumper cap is placed on

pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap

is placed on pins, the jumper is “Open”. The

illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1

and pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap is

placed on these 2 pins.

Jumper Setting

PS2_USB_PW1 Short pin2, pin3 to enable

(see p.2, No. 1) +5VSB (standby) for PS/2 or

USB23 wake up events.

Note: To select +5VSB, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided by

power supply.

USB_PW2 Short pin2, pin3 to enable

(see p.2, No. 35) +5V_DUAL for USB01/45

wake up events.

Note: To select +5V_DUAL, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided

by power supply. When you select +5V_DUAL, USB devices can wake up

the system under S3 (Suspend to RAM) state. To support ErP/EuP

requirement, please set this jumper to +5V.

USB_PW1 Short pin2, pin3 to enable

(see p.2, No. 9) +5VSB (standby) for

USB6_7/8_9/10_11 wake up

events.

Note: To select +5VSB, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided by

power supply.

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRCMOS1)

(see p.2, No. 24)

Note: CLRCMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes

system setup information such as system password, date, time, and system

setup parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup,

please turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power

supply. After waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper cap to short pin2 and pin3

on CLRCMOS1 for 5 seconds. However, please do not clear the CMOS right

after you update the BIOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when you just finish

updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system first, and then shut it down

before you do the clear-CMOS action.
