Standby￿Mode

The￿Standby￿Timeout￿field￿in￿System￿Setup￿enables￿you￿to￿specify￿the￿ time￿period￿that￿the￿computer￿can￿remain￿idle￿(no￿user￿input￿or￿disk￿ activity)￿before￿the￿computer￿enters￿standby￿mode.￿You￿can￿disable￿ this￿option￿by￿selecting￿Off,￿or￿you￿can￿specify￿a￿Standby￿Timeout￿delay￿ time￿of￿from￿1￿to￿16￿minutes.￿

In￿standby￿mode,￿the￿system￿and￿video￿memory￿and￿the￿video￿ controller￿slow￿down.￿The￿LCD￿backlight,￿hard￿drive,￿floppy￿drive,￿PC￿ Card￿controller,￿and￿some￿other￿devices￿turn￿off￿to￿save￿energy.￿DPMS￿ (a￿form￿of￿monitor￿power￿management)￿to￿an￿external￿monitor￿is￿ invoked.

To￿resume￿from￿standby,￿touch￿the￿touchpad.￿Do￿not￿press￿any￿keys￿on￿ your￿keyboard.￿

If￿you￿press￿a￿key￿to￿resume￿from￿standby,￿your￿ computer￿will￿recognize￿the￿function￿of￿the￿key￿ you￿pressed￿and￿perform￿that￿function.￿For￿ example,￿if￿you￿press￿<N>￿and￿a￿document￿is￿ open,￿an￿“n”￿ is￿typed￿into￿your￿document.￿
