POWER MENU – SETTING POWER MANAGEMENT FEATURES

The Power menu allows you to set and change the power management parameters. Follow the instructions for Navigating Through the Setup Utility to make any changes.

P O I N T S

In operating systems using ACPI, Auto-suspend Timeout, Hard Disk Timeout, and Video Timeout features are available exclusively through the operating system.

When resuming from a Save-to-Disk suspension there will be a delay while the contents of system memory and operating parameters are loaded from the hard drive.

C A U T I O N S

In Save-to-Disk mode there is no indication on the Status Indicator to let you know you are suspended rather than shut off from the power switch. You may want to make a habit of always trying the Suspend/ Resume button before using the power switch.

Resume-on-Modem ring when enabled will draw power from the bridge battery alone when your system is running off battery power. This may poten- tially drain your bridge battery. Disabling Wake-on- Modem ring will prevent this from happening.

The following tables show the names of the menu fields for the Power menu and its submenus, all of the options for each field, the default settings and a description of the field's function and any special information needed to help understand the field's use.
