UART2 Use Standard Infrared [Disabled]
When enabled, this field activates the onboard standard infrared feature and sets the
second serial UART to support the infrared module connector on the motherboard. If
your system already has a second serial port connected to the onboard COM2 connec-
tor, it will no longer work if you enable the infrared feature. See IrDA-Compliant
