Information on "Ecodesign directive":
Regulation 1275/2008, based on the EU Eco-design Directive (2009/125/EU),
de
fi
nes requirements for the power consumption of electrical and electronic domestic
and of
fi
ce devices in stand-by and off mode.
In general, all FUTRO thin client products have been developed for energy-ef
fi
cient operation and low
stand-by losses. Customer-speci
fi
c requirements and requirements of the operating system, which
are a priority for optimal operation, can contradict the requirements of the above-mentioned regulation.
For administrative purposes, such as remote maintenance of systems, the "Wake-on-LAN" (WoL)
function is indispensable for our customers and is therefore a default setting. When the WoL
functions are active, the maximum permissible power draw can be exceeded slightly in OFF
mode. By deactivating the WoL function, it is possible to comply with the legal requirements.
Please see chapter
"Activating power-saving mode", Page 26
for the procedure.
The energy saving mode (ACPI S4 Save-to-disk), which is familiar from many current mobile
and desktop systems, is not available in the embedded operating systems for technical reasons.
Therefore, it is not possible to switch devices with this operating system automatically into Off mode.
The operating system of a thin client is stored on a
fl
ash memory with optimised size and is provided
with write protection after con
fi
guration has been completed by the customer. This prevents data
security from being put at risk through frequent writing to a
fl
ash memory, such as when updating
the
swapfiles
in the operating system or through other applications. Every
fl
ash memory permits
only a limited number of write cycles. Both the activated write protection and the available limited
fl
ash memory capacity rule out the possibility of activating energy saving mode (ACPI S4).
