Power supply mode settings

Your PC has multiple charging modes so that many different USB devices
can be supported for USB Sleep and Charge function. Typical Mode
(Default) is suitable for a wide range of digital audio players.
However, determining which mode is suitable for your USB device is
unknown without trying. Try each mode, using the following procedure,
from Typical Mode to Alternate Mode(*1) to find the suitable mode for your
USB device to charge.
This function may not be able to be used with some connected external
devices even if the appropriate mode is selected. In this situation, clear the
"USB Sleep and Charge" check box and stop using this function.
*1. Some computers may not support all modes.

USB Sleep and Charge. Move the slider bar to specify the lower limit. If the
remaining battery life falls below the setting, the "USB Sleep and Charge
function" will be stopped. Unchecking the "Enable under Battery Mode"
check box sets the utility to only charge when the AC adaptor is connected.
