Can myRIO generate PS_ON signal to turn on a PC?

[kvanpv]

I am working on an autonomous robot running on myRIO and a mini PC. The robot has a power ON toggle switch. However, the motherboard requires a momentary switch PS_ON signal. I wonder if myRIO can generate this signal via its MXP pins. If it's possible, I'm planning to load this VI as a start-up program to power on the whole system.

I'd appreciate any input or previous experience.

Hi kvanpv

I think there should be no problem for you to set the myRIO to generate the PS ON Signal, as long as you check that the electrical requirements of the motherboard are covered by the MXP pins of the myRIO. Does the signal have any particular timing requirements?
