ABSTRACT:
A monitor for controlling power-on and power-off of a host computer includes a switch device, a monitoring device and a transmission device. The host computer has a processing device. The switch device is used for changing a status thereof in response to an external force applied thereto. The monitoring device is electrically connected to the switch device for monitoring the change of the status of the switch device, and determines if a power management event is activated by the change of the status of the switch status. The transmission device is electrically connected to the monitoring device, and transmits a power management signal to the host computer according to the determination that the change of the status of the switching device activates a power management event, such that the processing device performs a startup power-on or a power-off operation on the host computer.
