Management enabled, these monitors and drives automatically switch into
low-power mode during periods of system inactivity.
Power Management can be implemented at three levels— Maximum , Regular , and
Minimum . (The different levels apply to the monitor only; hard-disk drive operation is
the same for all three.) The feature can also be set to Disabled .
