Dell XPS H266, XPS H233 manual Check the monitor documentation to make

use the Display Properties dialog box in the

Control Panel to save monitor power rather

than using the VESA Video Power Down cate-

gory. See the Windows 95 online help for

instructions.

This category is available only if the installed

video card supports this feature.

CAUTION: Before enabling this feature,

check the monitor documentation to make

sure the monitor is DPMS-compliant; other-

wise, there is a risk of damaging the

monitor.

VESA Video Power Down selects the amount

of monitor power saved when Advanced

Power Management is enabled and the system

has entered a time-out period. Options for this

category and the amount of power saved are:

• Standby: 20% power saved (the default)

• Suspend: 90% power saved

• Sleep: 95% power saved

The higher the percentage of monitor power

saved, the longer the monitor takes to return to

full power when the time-out period ends.

Inactivity Timer

Determines the period of system inactivity

before certain system components enter a low-

power mode. To disable power management,

set this field to 0.

Hot Key

Allows the user to define a key combination

that causes the system to immediately enter a

low-power mode until the next time the key-

board or mouse is used. The user defines a key

to use in combination with <Ctrl> and <Alt> as

the power key combination.

Auto Start On AC Loss

When set to Enabled, Auto Start On AC Loss

allows the system to automatically restart if

there is a momentary loss of AC power. If this

category is set to Disabled, you must restart the

system manually after a loss of AC power.
