Description: The A4000T (the AT version in the Enlight case) has three LEDs on the front, and one of them is useless (the yellow 'turbo' LED). This LED is connected to the 'Turbo LED' plug (image 1) which is connected on the CN522 pins on the mobo (also labelled as SPKR LED). In image 2 you can see the exposed pins where the plug sits. Now, if you pull it out you can attach it to something much more useful, such as the connector for the SCSI device access that is located on the Cyberstorm PPC card (image 3). You connect it with the yellow wire orientated as in image 4. Now the 'Turbo' LED will indicate UW SCSI access. The 'Turbo' button retains its original function, which is toggling the internal speaker on or off. (Big wooooohoooo)

You mean to tell me they went through the trouble of putting a speaker switch and LED position on the motherboard just for using the turbo switch and LED?! Now THAT is just funny! (Tho I do have to admit, having a switch for the speaker is a good idea) I do have the Power LED for my A4k attached to my HC+8 tho. |
