Suspend to RAM / Suspend to Disk
In Suspend mode the CPU clock is stopped and most of the Notebook PC devices are put in their
lowest active states. The suspend mode is the lowest power state of the Notebook PC. The Notebook
PC enters Suspend when the system remains idle for a specified amount of time. The timeout setting of
both Hard Disk and Video can be set by BIOS Setup. Press any key to resume system operation.
When entering into either one of power saving modes, the Power LED will start blinking.
A Customized Power-saving Example
The timeout settings for System Standby, Auto Suspend, Hard Disk Off, and Video Off specify the
amount of time the system must be inactive before the next power management level is enabled. Refer
to the Power Menu section in Chapter 3. The example below demonstrates this function. If the Hard
Disk Timeout is set to 2 minutes, the Standby Timeout to 8 minutes and Auto Suspend Timeout is set to
10 minutes the following power management events take place:
1. After 2 minutes of system idle the hard disk spins down.
2. After 6 additional minutes (a total of 8 minutes of system idle) the system enters Standby.
3. After 2 additional minutes in the system Standby mode, the system suspends to memory or
disk (a total of 10 minutes of system idle)
After the system has suspended, operation can be returned or resumed to the point in your application
where it was suspended.
This concludes Chapter 5. The next chapter covers the optional equipment that can be added or con-
nected to the basic Notebook PC.
