Pow er M ana gement P arameters If you use your computer frequently on battery power, the
amount of productive time you can get out of a single
battery charge is important. Although the default values for
the Setup parameters do an adequate job of conserving
power, you can adjust the values of the parameters to
achieve even greater savings and a resulting longer battery
life.
Setup has two groups of power management parameters:
❑
Power-savings parameters that define what the
computer does to save power
❑
Activity-monitoring that determines when the
computer goes into and comes out of some of the
power conservation modes.
