Suspend Switch

The "Suspend Switch" default is "Enable". This enables the SMI

connector on the mainboard. The SMI connector connects to the lead
from a Suspend switch mounted on the system case.

Doze & Standby Speeds

The next two lines set the speed the CPU will operate at during

each mode. The number indicates what the normal CPU speed is di­
vided by.

PM Timers

The next lines control the time-out settings for the Power Man­

agement scheme. The features are "HDD Power Down", which puts

the hard disk into its lowest power consumption mode, and the Doze,
Standby and Suspend system inactivation modes.

The system automatically recovers from any power saving mode

when there is system activity, as, for example, when you type any key,
or when there is an IRQ wake-up event such as moving the mouse
or a modem ring.

"HDD Power Down" shuts down any IDE hard disk drives in

the system if they are not accessed for the specified period. The time
settings range from "1 Min" to "20 Min", or "Disable".

HDD Power Down does not affect SCSI hard disks.

The "Doze Mode", "Standby Mode" and "Suspend Mode" lines

set the period of time after which each of these modes activate. At

'Max Saving' they activate sequentially after one minute each, at 'Min

Saving' after one hour.
