Chapter 4: BIOS Setup
Power Management Setup
Power Management Setup lets you control the system power. The system
has various power-saving modes — including powering down the hard
disk, turning off the video, suspending to RAM, and software power down
— that allows the system to automatically resume by certain events.
The power-saving modes can be controlled by timeouts. If the system is
inactive for a time, the timeouts begin counting. If inactivity continues
and reaches the defined timeout period, the system enters a power saving
mode. If any item in the list of Reload Global Timer Events is enabled, then
any activity on that item will reset the timeout counters to zero.
If the system is suspended or has been powered down by software, it can
be resumed by a wake up call that is generated by incoming traffic to a
modem, a LAN card, a PCI card, or a fixed alarm on the system real-time
clock.

PWRON After PWR-Fail
Off
When power returns after an AC power failure, the system’s power is
off. You must press the Power button to power-on the system.
On
When power returns after an AC power failure, the system will auto-
matically power-on.
Former-Sts
When power returns after an AC power failure, the system will return
to the state where you left off before power failure occurs. If the
system’s power is off when AC power failure occurs, it will remain off
when power returns. If the system’s power is on when AC power fail-
ure occurs, the system will power-on when power returns.
ACPI Function
By default, the ACPI function is enabled. This function should be enabled
only in operating systems that support ACPI.
