Changing the Rapid Wake (Sleep Mode) Settings
You can change the Rapid Wake settings in
VAIO Control Center
.
Rapid Wake is enabled by default. With this function, you can keep your VAIO computer in
Sleep mode without risk of data loss because the computer enters Sleep mode after your
working data is saved on the built-in storage device.
For models that support Rapid Wake + ECO, you can conserve more battery power by
reducing power consumption when the computer is in Sleep mode.
1.
Start
VAIO Control Center
[Details] and select
Hardware
.
2.
Enable/disable the setting in
Rapid Wake
.
Note
With Rapid Wake disabled, your working data is not saved on the built-in storage device
when the computer enters Sleep mode. Therefore, if the computer is turned off during
Sleep mode because, for example, the battery pack runs out of power or the computer is
disconnected from an AC power source, the working data will be lost and cannot be
restored. To avoid data loss, be sure to save the data before the computer enters Sleep
mode. With Rapid Wake disabled, the power indicator light blinks slowly in orange during
Sleep mode, and the charge and power indicator lights blink simultaneously when the
battery pack runs out of power during Sleep mode.
When you use the Hibernate mode, you need to disable Rapid Wake.
