How to Enable Auto Power On for the P1301
The P1301 has two options for auto power on. In this section we will go over both with instructions.
Option 1: Hardware
The easiest and most reliable method of enabling auto power on for the P1301 is through the hardware, which uses the switch underneath the panel.
- Remove the Torx T10 screw
- Slide the AT/ATX switch to the AT position. AT enables auto power on.
The downside of this method is that the power button is completely disabled. If you manually shut down the PC, you will need to cycle power to restart it. If that is an issue for your use case, use option 2 instead.
Option 2: BIOS
- Power on the system and immediately press the Del key a few times to access the BIOS
- Navigate over to the Chipset tab and open the PCH-IO Configuration menu
- Change the Power Failure option to [Power on]
- Navigate to the Save & Exit tab and choose “Save Changes and Reset”
Disassembly
The P1301 can be opened by the user. This does not void the warranty, however, any damage caused by doing so will not be covered. Some precautions should be taken to avoid damaging the unit:
- Perform this disassembly in an area free of static discharge
- Before beginning, touch a grounded metal surface to discharge your body of static electricity
Remove x8 screws from the back/top of the system as indicated. You will need a Torx T10 screwdriver.
Troubleshooting
How to Clear CMOS on P1301
If the system fails to power on or otherwise function, clearing the CMOS may help restore it to a working state.
Required tools: T10 Torx driver
- After disconnecting the unit from all power and peripherals remove the Torx T10 screw
- Slide the Clear CMOS switch to the other position
- Wait 30 seconds
- Return the switch to its original position
- The CMOS is now clear
NOTE: The unit may power cycle several times before it boots up. This is normal.
