Setting the mode
There are two ways to set the power up mode: hotkeys and TSETUP.
Hotkeys
You can use hotkeys Fn + F3 to set the power-up modes. See Chapter 5,
, for details.
TSETUP
You can use the MS-DOS-based utility TSETUP to set two power-up
modes: Resume and Boot. See Chapter 7,
for details. This setting is not effective when you are using Windows.
The Resume mode is called Suspend/Resume in Windows 95 and
Standby
in Windows 98. The functions are essentially the same.
Panel power on/off
You can set up your computer so that power turns on automatically when
you open the display panel and turns off when you close it.
Refer to Chapter 7,
, for an explanation of
how to enable this convenient feature.
If you have enabled the Panel power on/off function, and you use the
Suspend or Standby button in the Windows Shut Down menu to turn off
the computer, do not close the panel until the suspend function is
completed. If you close the panel before the suspend function is
completed, Resume will not work.
System Auto Off
This feature turns the system off automatically if it is not used for a set duration.
Refer to Chapter 7,
, for an explanation of
how to set the duration.
