•
In Save-to-Disk mode there is no indication on the
Status Indicator to let you know you are suspended
rather than shut off from the power switch. You may
want to make a habit of always trying the Suspend/
Resume button before using the power switch.
•
Resume-on-Modem ring when enabled will draw
power from the bridge battery alone when your
system is running off battery power. This may poten-
tially drain your bridge battery. Disabling Wake-on-
Modem ring will prevent this from happening.
