You can increase, decrease, and allocate the power used by the
computer by setting power preferences.
Increasing power increases performance, while decreasing
power conserves energy and extends the running time from a
battery pack.
By decreasing power to unused components and functions,
you can allocate more power to the components and functions
that you are using.
Many power preferences are timeout settings.
A timeout is the period of inactivity before the system initiates
a power change or reduces power to a component. For
example, the computer is preset to initiate Suspend (Standby)
after a period of inactivity. The time interval between when
you stop using the computer and the onset of computer-
initiated Suspend (Standby) is a Suspend (Standby) timeout.
Depending on your operating system, you can set timeouts
that are specific to various conditions, components, or
procedures as well as specify the duration of those timeouts.
For additional power options, refer to your operating system
documentation. For a summary of battery conservation settings
that extend the running time from a single charge, refer to
"Conserving Battery Power" later in this chapter.
The following tables list power procedures that are not described
in your operating system documentation.
