4.11 Power Management Setup

This option lets you control system power management. 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 be automatically resumed 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 the inactivity continues so that the timeout period elapses, 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.

Selecting Power Management Setup on the main program screen displays this menu:
