Intelligent powerA microprocessor in the computer’s intelligent

 

supply *1power supply detects the battery’s charge,

 

 

automatically calculates the remaining battery

 

 

capacity and protects electronic components

 

 

from abnormal conditions such as a voltage

 

 

overload from the AC adaptor. This can be

 

 

specified in the Power Options.

 

 

 

 

Battery saveThis feature lets you configure the computer in

 

mode *1order to save battery power. This can be

 

 

specified in the Power Options.

 

 

 

 

Panel power on/off *1This feature automatically turns power to the

 

 

computer off when the display panel is closed,

 

 

and turns it back on when the display panel is

 

 

opened. This can be specified in the Power

 

 

Options.

 

 

 

 

Low battery

When battery power is exhausted to the point that

 

automaticcomputer operation cannot be continued, the

 

Hibernation Mode *1system automatically enters Hibernation Mode

 

 

and shuts itself down. This can be specified in the

 

 

Power Options.

 

 

 

 

Heat dispersal *1

To protect against overheating, the processor has

 

 

an internal temperature sensor so that, if the

 

 

computer’s internal temperature rises to a certain

 

 

level, the cooling fan is turned on or the

 

 

processing speed is lowered. This can be

 

 

specified in the Power Options.

 

 

 

If the processor’s temperature reaches an unacceptably high level with either setting, the computer will automatically shut down to prevent any damage - in this instance all unsaved data in memory will be lost.

Hibernation ModeThis feature lets you turn off the power to the

 

computer without exiting from your software. The

 

contents of main memory are automatically

 

saved to the hard disk drive so that when you

 

next turn the power on again, you can continue

 

working right where you left off. Refer to the

 

Turning off the power section in Chapter 3,

 

Getting Started, for more details.

 

 

Sleep ModeIf you have to interrupt your work, you can use

 

this feature to allow you to turn off power to the

 

computer without exiting from your software. Data

 

is maintained in the computer’s main memory so

 

that when you next turn on the power, you can

 

continue working right where you left off.
