H. Suspend Mode
The Power Management function must not be set to disabled to enable this
function. If the system runs in Standby mode and the Suspend timer expires, all
devices regulated by power management will shut off and the CPU speed will
be 0 MHz.
I. HDD Power Down
The Power Management function must not be set to disabled to enable this
function. When the HDD idle time has elapsed, BIOS sends a command to the
hard disk to turn off the motor. Set a time between 1 and 15 to indicate time
required to wait before the hard drive enters a power saving mode. Some old
hard drives may not support this function.
J. Throttle Duty Cycle
When the system enters Doze mode, the CPU clock runs only part of the
time. You may select the percent of time that the clock runs.
K. VGA Active Monitor
When Enabled, any video activity restarts the global timer for Standby mode.
L. Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN
When set to Delay 4 Sec., this function allows the power button to put the system
in Suspend, a power saving mode. See Section 2-4 for operation instructions
of the over-ride power button operation wich puts the system in Suspend mode.
When set to Instant-Off the Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN function is disabled and the
computer turns completely off when the power button is pressed.
M. Power On by Modem
When enabled, a modem that receives a call will wake up the system from
soft off and green mode. You should connect the modem to the COM port
and turn on the resume event in green mode.
N. Power On By Alarm
When enabled, this setting allows the system to turn back on at a designated time
of the month. User must designate date of month and time of day. This function
is only available when using an ATX power supply and the Software Power-Off
function to turn off the computer. See the Software Power-Off feature in Section
2-4 of this manual for instructions.
