o PC Card Power Off During Standby

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CAUTION <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

If you disable Power Management or Hibernation, you must take immediate action to resolve a low-battery condition to prevent losing unsaved information.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

If you select to disable the low-battery warning beeps, a low-battery condition is indicated only by a blinking battery light. If you disable Power Management or Hibernation, information in memory is not automatically saved during a critical low-battery condition.

If you enable the selection for an external energy saving monitor, it enters low-power mode when the screen timeout occurs. If you enable this selection and you do not have an energy saving monitor, the screen display may become distorted.

Under PC Card slot power management, resume power to the PC Card slots and ring reserve feature may be enabled during Standby (Suspend). This feature is not available on the LTE 5000, LTE 5100, and LTE 5200 models.

Under Power Management, you can select whether to enable Power Management while on AC or battery power, only while on battery power, or never (disabled).

If you enable Power Management, you can select the conservation level: high, medium, or custom. The conservation level sets the timeouts for Standby (Suspend), Hibernation, drives, and screens.

A timeout is a period of inactivity after which power is turned off to the system or component. Refer to Chapter 7 for more information about Standby (Suspend) and Hibernation.

o High: - Provides the maximum amount of power conservation and the maximum battery operating time from a single charge.

o Medium (default): - Provides a balance between performance and battery life.

o Custom: - Conserves power according to specified timeout settings.

NOTE: Selecting to disable the infrared port under the Security menu also conserves power.
