NOTE

example, to enter 9:20 a.m. and February 4, 1996, type 09:20:00

Drives
The drive parameters let you check and change settings for your drives, in-
cluding internal hard drives, diskette drives, and docking station hard drives.
This option may only appear when the NEC Versa 4200 is docked at the
Docking Station 4000 or the PortBar 4000. To boot from an IDE drive in-
stalled in the docking station, select “Yes” for Boot Docking Station IDE.
Note that if you select “Yes,” you can no longer access the NEC Versa
4200’s internal drives (floppy, hard disk, or CD-ROM)
Or, select “No” to boot from either the internal hard drive or from a
bootable option (floppy, hard disk, or CD-ROM).
Peripherals
The Peripherals screen displays the location of the connection between the
system and the Input/Output (I/O) ports.
Power Savings
The Power Savings screen lets you balance high performance and energy
conservation using parameters including the following:
Power Management Under AC
Normally, whenever AC power is
connected to the NEC Versa 4200, power management is disabled. If you
enable this parameter, the system automatically activates the power man-
agement profile you set in Power Savings.
Power Savings
The Highest Performance setting provides the greatest
system performance. Longest Battery Life provides maximum power
saving, and Off disables all device timeouts. Your system comes preset
with Custom Settings as the default. You can enter values for device
timeouts.
