APM Power Off
If the AC Fail is occured or Front Switch is pressed in this mode, BIOS sends APM event: “Power
mode changed” to the OS and does not turn off the power. OS does nothing in this event. If the
system is set as default that this event is performed by the application, then the rest of the
operation is performed by the application. Also, this event is same as for the event when the
front power switch is pressed in AC Fail mode. If the mode is changed, the application does not
recognize how the mode is changed.
If the front power switch is pressed for more than four seconds, the hardware (Chipset) turns off
the power.
