About Power Connections

The VAIO computer does not resume from Standby or Hibernate mode

Verify that the computer, server and network settings are configured correctly. See the section, “Configuring RoomLink” on page 57.

Check the following, if applicable to your connection environment:

A crossover cable is securely connected between RoomLink™ and a single VAIO computer.

The network switch or the router device is turned on. (See the information supplied with your network switch or router device, for details.)

The router device is turned on before turning on the network media receiver.

The network media receiver, network switch, or router device are properly connected using the appropriate network cables*.

If using a router device, RoomLink™ and the VAIO computer have been configured to obtain the IP address automatically.

Verify that the correct server name appears in the Select a server screen. (The Select a server screen lists all current and previous servers connected to RoomLink).

When connecting to RoomLink™ for the first time, the network media receiver does not automatically bring a VAIO® computer out of Standby mode. Subsequent connections bring your VAIO computer out of Standby mode.

RoomLink cannot automatically resume the functions of certain VAIO computers due to computer settings or the network environment. The automatic resume feature is not available for VAIO notebook computer models or for VAIO computers that use a wireless LAN connection. This Resume feature is available for wired networks only.

The connected server history is lost when the AC power cable is disconnected. All settings except for the IP address are lost.

* Use network cables that support 100BASE-TX.
