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,

The Keyboard

, for details.

TSETUP

You can use the MS-DOS-based utility TSETUP to set two power-up

modes: Resume and Boot. See Chapter 7,

Setup and Password Security

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,

Setup and Password Security

, 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,

Setup and Password Security

, for an explanation of

how to set the duration.
