Power Management States
The following power management states are available for the Workstation 6 Series:
•
Unplugged
The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) specification refers to the
unplugged state as mechanical off. You can safely disassemble the workstation in
this power management state.
In this state:
–
The AC power cord is not connected to a wall outlet.
–
The Operator LED is off.
–
The Operator LCD is blank.
•
NOPOWER
The ACPI specification refers to the NOPOWER state as S5, or a soft-off state in
which the power supply remains active but delivers minimal power to key circuits
to detect a power button or wake-on-LAN event.
Do not disassemble the workstation in this power management state. You must
disconnect the AC power cord from the system.
In this state:
–
The AC power cord is connected to a wall outlet.
–
The operating system and applications are not running.
–
The RAM contents are undefined.
–
The Operator LED is off.
