minutes
means that if the mouse, keyboard, and hard disk drive are not
used for 15 minutes, the monitor goes blank and the hard disk drive in the
computer starts using less power.
Note: Only energy-saving monitors power down during standby.
If you are using the Automatic Power Off feature, the time you set for
Standby must be less than the time you set for Automatic Power Off.
Otherwise, the computer will power off before it enters Standby.
Standby Snapshot is the option that allows you to have the state of the
computer saved when it enters Standby. If the electricity goes out or the
computer is powered off while in Standby, the computer resumes at the
saved state when you power it back on. Any applications or programs open
when the computer shut down will be open when the power returns.
Monitor mode is an option might or might not appear depending on the type
of processor installed in the computer. If you see this option, you can
change the power mode used to blank the monitor during Standby. If you
have an energy-saving monitor, the VESA DPMS setting powers the monitor
back on fastest.
Note: Only energy-saving monitors will power down during Standby.
Halt CPU when Idle is the option that allows you to halt the CPU during
Standby. This conserves power without affecting the operation of the
computer.
Wake Up on Ring is the option that allows you to have the computer power
on automatically when the phone rings. This is useful if you have a fax
modem and use the computer to receive faxes. To use this feature, you
must have an internal modem that supports Wake Up on Ring, or an
external modem connected to serial port A on the back of the computer.
Note: With Wake Up on Ring, the computer might power-on automatically
when you dial out on a rotary or pulse telephone. If this occurs, disable the
Wake Up on Ring feature and use it only when you know you will have
incoming fax communications.
Indicator is a Wake Up on Ring feature that makes the power light blink at a
constant rate to indicate that the computer answered the phone one or more
times. The Indicator resets when you power the computer on.
Wake Up on Alarm is the option that allows you to have the computer
power-on automatically at a date and time you specify. Choose the date
