C A U T I O N

The Suspend or Save-to-Disk mode should not be used with certain PC Cards. Check your PC Card documentation for more information.

P O I N T S

Disabling the Suspend/Resume button prevents it from being used to put your LifeBook in Suspend or Save-to-Disk mode. The resume function of the button cannot be disabled.

If your LifeBook is actively accessing information when you enter the Suspend or Save-to-Disk mode, changes to open files are not lost. The files are left open and memory is kept active during Suspend mode or the memory is transferred to the internal hard drive during Save-to-Disk mode.

When PC Cards or external devices are in use, Save- to-Disk mode cannot return to the exact state prior to suspension, because all of the peripheral devices will be re-initialized when the system restarts.

The main advantage of using the Save-to-Disk func- tion is that power is not required to maintain your data. This is particularly important if you will be leaving your LifeBook in a suspended state for a prolonged period of time. The drawback of using Save-to-Disk mode is that it lengthens the power down and power up sequences and resets peripheral devices.

P O I N T

Save-to-Disk mode requires allocating a significant amount of hard drive capacity for saving all system memory, which reduces your usable disk space. When you purchase your LifeBook it will have space allocated for the memory installed. If you upgrade the original system by adding a memory upgrade module without changing the size of your Save-to-Disk allocation you will get an error message when you try to activate Save- to-Disk mode and it will not work. Use the PHDISK Utility to increase the size of the Save-to-Disk file, SAVE2DSK.BIN. You can download the Save-to-Disk File Allocation information from our Web site at www.fujitsupc.com. If you need help, contact your support representative for recommendations.

IDLE MODE

Idle mode is one of the power management parameters. When Idle mode is enabled, the CPU is put into low- speed operation when there is no activity (keystroke, pointer action, sound generation, video display change, modem transmission or reception, etc.) on your Life- Book for 16 seconds. Any activity will cause the normal operation to restart automatically. This feature is inde- pendent of the Suspend/Resume modes.

STANDBY MODE

Standby mode is one of the power management param- eters. When Standby mode is activated, your LifeBook shuts off the display and turns off the hard drive when there is no activity (keystroke, pointer action, sound generation, video display change, modem transmission or reception, etc.) on your LifeBook for the user selected time-out period. Any activity will cause your LifeBook
