Standby Mode

This is user configurable only when the Power Management category

is set to User Defined. When enabled and after the set time of system

inactivity, the CPU clock will run at a slower speed (1/3 of full speed)

while all other devices still operate at full speed.

Suspend Mode

This is user configurable only when the Power Management category

is set to User Defined. When enabled and after the set time of system

inactivity, the CPU and onboard peripherals will be shut off.

HDD Power Down

This is user configurable only when the Power Management category

is set to User Defined. When enabled and after the set time of system

inactivity, the hard disk drive will be powered down while all other

devices remain active.

Soft-Off by PWRBTN

This category allows you to select the method of powering off your

system.

Hold 4 Sec. Regardless of whether the Power Management field is

enabled or disabled, if the power button is pushed

and released in less than 4 sec, the system enters the

Suspend mode. The purpose of this function is to

prevent the system from powering off in case you

accidentally “hit” or pushed the power button. Pushing

the power button for more than 4 seconds will

power off the system.

Instant-Off

Pressing and then releasing the power button at

once will immediately power off your system.
