Default Description
[Customized] Sets the power savings parameters to a factory installed
combination of parameters, a custom set of parameters set
by you or no power saving features.
[Off] Sets the length of time that the hard drive can be inactive before your note-
book automatically turns off the power to the hard drive controller and drive
motor. If you choose a factory installed combination of parameters this field
will display the setting. If you choose to customize the parameters you will
be able to set this yourself. The options available vary from Off, which has
no inactivity shutoff, to 20 minutes.
[Off] Sets the length of time without any user input device activity before the
display is turned off. If you choose a factory combination of parameters, this
field will display the setting. If you choose to customize the parameters, you
will be able to set this yourself. Off has no inactivity shutoff.
[4 Minutes] Sets the length of time without any user input device activity before the CPU
is set to half speed and the display and the hard drive are turned off. If you
choose a factory combination of parameters this field will display the setting.
If you choose to customize the parameters you will be able to set it yourself.
[15 Minutes] Sets the length of time without any I/O activity before your note-book goes
into Suspend mode. If you choose a factory combination of parameters this

book will save all of system memory and the operating parameters to the
hard drive before turning your notebook to the pseudo-off condition.
[Off] When set to "After 1 Hour", your notebook will automatically save all
system memory and the operating parameters to the hard drive and go to
pseudo-off if the notebook is left in Suspend mode for more than an hour.
[Off] Sets whether or not to Resume from a suspension state when a message is
received by telephone line. This feature will not operate if the Save-to-Disk
mode is enabled. This feature applies to internal and external modems.
[Off] Sets whether or not to resume from a suspension state at a designated time.
This feature is available from either the Suspend or Save-to-Disk modes.

matically resume operation from the Suspend state. The format of the clock
setting is hours:minutes:seconds. Each segment of the time is set separately,
