Automatic Power-On features

The Automatic Power-On features within the Power Management menu allow you to enable and disable features that turn on the computer automatically.

vPCI Modem Ring Detect: With this feature set to Enabled the computer will turn on automatically when a ring is detected on the modem.

vWake Up on Alarm: You can specify a date and time at which the computer will be turned on automatically. This can be either a single event or a daily event.

vPCI Wake Up: PCI Wake Up uses PCI Power Management Enabled (PME) to wake up the computer when using token-ring, Ethernet LAN adapters, modems, or other PCI cards capable of waking up the computer. When you set PCI Wake Up to Enabled, the computer will turn on when it receives a specific signal from another computer on the Local Area Network (LAN) or from a modem signal.
