Selecting a Power Scheme

NOTE: The Network Disabled power scheme disables your internal network and wireless activity when your computer is running on battery power. When your computer is connected to an electrical outlet or docking device, the Network Disabled power scheme disables only your wireless activity. You must select the power scheme through QuickSet (not Microsoft® Windows®) for the Network Disabled power scheme to work.

The Selecting a Power Scheme screen allows you to create, edit, and switch between power schemes. In addition, you can delete power schemes that you create, but you cannot delete Dell™ QuickSet predefined power schemes (Maximum Battery, Maximum Performance, Presentation, and Network Disabled).

NOTE: QuickSet automatically adds the word (QuickSet) after the names of power schemes created using QuickSet.

All QuickSet power schemes are displayed in a drop-down menu near the center of the screen. The power settings for each scheme are below the name of the current selection. The power settings are listed separately for when the computer is running on battery or connected to an electrical outlet.

The Power Management Wizard also allows you to associate the display brightness level with a power scheme. You must enable brightness-level power schemes through QuickSet in order to set the brightness level.

The display brightness, internal network-card activity, and wireless activity features are not available through the Control Panel power schemes. In order to use of these features, you must set them through QuickSet power schemes.

NOTE: Brightness key combinations only affect the display on your portable computer, not monitors that you attach to your portable computer or docking device. If your computer is in CRT-only mode and you try to change the brightness level, the Brightness Meter appears, but the brightness level on the monitor does not change.
