I am in the process of purchasing a NUC5i5RYH to put into an enclosure that will house other electronics and peripherals. Instead of removing the lid on and off everyday to turn off the NUC, I was planning to add a remote on/off switch to the enclosure that will connect to the Front Panel Header.
I have multiple questions, so please bear with me.
What is the voltage output across pins 2 and 4 of the header? This is the power LED indicator.
What is its supply current capability across 2 and 4? I just need enough to turn the LED on.
Since my remote switch has a built in LED is there a pull up resistor near that connector? Or do I have to provide one?
Most desktop PC's have three power switch conditions. One, if you hit it once it will turn on the PC. Two, if you hit it again it should reset/reboot the PC. And three, if you push it in again and maintain for 5 seconds it will turn the PC off. Since, I am using the Front Panel Header will this be the same case when connecting my remote switch across pins 6 and 8?
I see that pins 5 and 7 are for a reset switch. If the condition explained above are not the case then this means that I will require two switches? One for the reset (pins 5 and 7) and another for the power switch (pins 6 and 8)?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
