User Define
You can define your own required power management delay values by
setting up the following four related timers:
HDD Off Timer:
The entry period of this flexible HDD Off timer is 1 to 15 minutes.
Once the system stops reading from or writing to the HDD, the
standby timer starts counting. If there is no activity and the defined
timeout period expires, the system will shut off the HDD power. The
HDD will not resume its function until a read/write command is
executed.
Doze Timer select:
The Doze Timer starts counting at the end of each activity, If there is
no further activity during the defined period, the timer will scale the
CPU and system clock at the lower frequency (8MHz), and motivate
the enabled PM Events. When you press any keyboard key or move
the mouse, the CPU and system clock will auto-wake-up to a normal
operation.
The range of this standby mode timer is 10 seconds to 3 hours.
