Customizing System Features 2-7
AC
is set to
DISABLED
. There are no user-selectable set-
tings for this option. Settings for
BATTERY
are:
The default setting is
1 MINUTE
. To increase battery oper-
ating time, set
HARD-DISK TIME-OUT
to a lower number.
However, if your software requires frequent hard-disk
drive accesses, using a higher time-out setting may save
battery power and time by minimizing the number of
times the hard-disk drive must power up.
NOTE: Set
DISK TIME-OUT
to
DISABLED
if using it causes
compatibility problems with your software.
A change to the
DISK TIME-OUT
option takes effect imme-
diately (rebooting is not required).
If you are not in the System Setup program, you can turn
off the hard-disk drive immediately by pressing

cally when it is accessed by the microprocessor.
