POWER MENU – SETTING POWER MANAGEMENT FEATURES

The Power menu allows you to set and change the power
management parameters. Follow the instructions for
Navigating Through the Setup Utility to make any
changes. (See Navigating Through the Setup Utility on
page 2 for more information)

The following tables show the names of the menu fields
for the Power menu and its submenus, all of the options
for each field, the default settings and a description of
the field's function and any special information needed

to help understand the field's use.

Resume on Modem ring when enabled will draw power
from the bridge battery alone when your system is
running off battery power. This may potentially drain
your bridge battery. Disabling Resume on Modem ring
will prevent this from happening.

P O I N T

In Windows 98 Auto-suspend Timeout, Hard Disk
Timeout, and Video Timeout features are available
exclusively through the operating system; in Win-
dows XP and 2000 systems, power management is
handled by the operating system.

When resuming from a Save-to-Disk suspension there
will be a delay while the contents of system memory
and operating parameters are loaded from the hard
drive.

In Save-to-Disk mode there is no indication on the
Status Indicator to let you know you are suspended
rather than shut off from the power switch. You may
want to make a habit of always trying the Suspend/
Resume button before using the power switch.
