The Power Off tab contains an auto-suspend feature that allows you to save energy, which can extend your battery life. The timeout powers off your device after it has been idle for a predetermined amount of time. To adjust the timeout feature:

Use the drop-down menus to set the length of idle time before the device powers off when your device is running on battery power and external power.

If you want to deactivate the external power timeout, click on the check box to uncheck it.
