GA-Z97x-Gaming 5 on/off charge

GA-Z97x-Gaming 5 on/off charge
« on: June 26, 2014, 01:52:14 pm »
I do not seem to be having this feature working? all drivers installed and latest Bios.

there is nothing in the manual about on/off charge so I am wondering if I have been duped into believing this could do on/off charge?

I bought this board because it could do this just like my older Gigabyte board.

any ideas how to trigger the feature? not worried if back usb of front mounted.

thanks

Did you install the APP center and on and off charge APP?

With a simple On/Off Charge driver update, GIGABYTE motherboard users are able to take full advantage of USB charging of their iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch, giving them more options and convenience when recharging their new device.
   
     
 
* Due to certain mobile phone limitations, users may need to connect the mobile phone to their PC before the PC 
  enters S4/S5 mode to enable a quick charge from non ON/OFF Charge USB ports.
* Maximum 3 devices can be charged at the same time. Charging current may vary with PSU 5V stand-by spec.
 
Based on GIGABYTE's unparalleled 3x USB power boost design, plus an entirely new hardware design, GIGABYTE ON/OFF Charge Technology provides a set of white and red colored USB pin headers that can easily be connected to your system's front USB 2.0 ports, that not only act as a normal USB port, but also double as a quick charge ports for your mobile device. It doesn't matter if your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch is 

plugged into the quick charge USB port while the system is turned on, in sleep/standby mode, or even turned off, as it always enables you to charge your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch.
