7.5 Power Settings

These settings will help you save battery power, thus allowing a longer battery autonomy. You can adjust settings for both battery operation and DC-Power operation (when the ARCHOSis connected to a powered DVR Station or to a wall outlet via the ArchosDocking Adapter)

Battery operation / DC-Power operation

Power Off

-the amount of time of user inactivity (no buttons pressed) before the system shuts down.

-The system will not shut down during a slideshow or audio/video playback.

Backlight Off

-the amount of time of user inactivity (no buttons pressed) before the LCD dis- play turns off.

-The display will not turn off while a video or slideshow is playing.

Hard Drive

-the amount of time before the hard drive stops spinning after the time of the last file access. With a longer time, the disk turns more often and response times are quicker when accessing files, but power consumption is higher.

-Caution: this setting should only be changed by experienced users.

Your ARCHOSdevice will consume more power as these parameters are set to higher values (the backlight and hard drive in particular consume much power).

When in battery mode, it is advised to set these parameters to lower values in order to save power.

Your device will be hotter when the backlight and hard drive are on for long periods of time.
