Features of the Configuration/Setup Utility
Automatic Power Off.
If Rapid Resume is enabled,
this option lets you set the amount of time that will pass
before your computer turns off automatically. For
example:
30 minutes
means that if the mouse,
keyboard, or hard disk are not used for 30 minutes, the
computer turns off automatically.
The current state of the computer is saved before the
computer turns off. Any applications or programs open
when the computer turns off will be open when you turn
the computer back on.
Initialize Adapter Cards.
If you are using the Rapid
Resume feature, this option indicates whether your
adapter cards will be restarted (initialized) when you
turn on your computer.
Standby Timeout.
This option lets you set the amount
of time that will pass before your computer starts
conserving energy. For example:
20 minutes
means
that if the mouse, keyboard, and hard disk are not used
for 20 minutes, your display goes blank and the hard
disk in your computer starts using less power.
If you are using the Automatic Power Off feature, the
time you set for Standby must be less than the time you
set for Automatic Power Off. Otherwise, your computer
will turn off before it enters Standby.
note:
Only energy-saving monitors will turn off
automatically with Rapid Resume.
note:
Only energy-saving monitors power down during
Standby.
Monitor Mode.
This option lets you change the power
mode used to blank the monitor during Standby. If you
have an energy-saving monitor, the VESA DPMS setting
turns the monitor back on the fastest.
Halt CPU When Idle.
This option lets you halt the
central processing unit (CPU) during Standby. This
conserves power without affecting the operation of your
computer.
Blink LED in Standby.
If you are using the Standby
feature, and you enable the Blink LED in Standby option,
the power light will blink to indicate that the computer is
in Standby mode.
Wake Up on Ring.
This option lets you have the
computer turn on automatically when the phone rings.
This is useful if you have a fax modem and use your
computer to receive faxes. To use this feature, you must
have an internal modem that supports Wake Up on Ring
or an external modem connected to serial port A.
Indicator.
If you are using the Wake Up on Ring feature,
and you enable the Indicator option, the power light will
blink to indicate the computer answered the phone. The
Indicator resets when you turn the computer on.
note:
Only energy-saving monitors will power down during
Standby.
note:
With Wake Up on Ring, your computer may turn on
automatically when you dial out on a rotary or pulse
telephone. If this occurs, disable the Wake Up on Ring
feature and use it only when you know you will have
incoming fax communications.
