• Switch Function : You can choose whether or not to permit your system to enter
complete
Suspend mode. Suspend mode offers greater power savings, with a
correspondingly longer awakening period.
• Doze Speed (div by): Sets the CPU's speed during Doze mode. The speed is reduced
to a fraction of the CPU's normal speed. The divisors range from 1 to 8
The choice: 1~8.
• Stdby Speed (div by) :Select a divisor to reduce the CPU speed during Standby
mode to a fraction of the full CPU speed. The speed is reduced to a fraction of the
CPU's normal speed. The divisors range from 1 to 8-0.
The choice: 1~8
• MODEM Use IRQ: Name the interrupt request (IRQ) line assigned to the modem (if
any) on your system. Activity of the selected IRQ always awakens the system.
The choice: 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, NA.
• Hot Key Function As : Select Enabled if your system has a hot key for soft power off.
The choice: Power off, Suspend ,Disabled.
• PM Timers : The following four modes are Green PC power saving functions which are
only user configurable when User Defined Power Management has been selected.
See above for available selections.
• HDD Off After : By default, this item is Disabled, meaning that no matter the mode
the rest of the system, the hard drive will remain ready. Otherwise, you have a range of
choices from 1 to 15 minutes or Suspend. This means that you can elect to have your
hard disk drive be turned off after a selected number of minutes or when the rest of the
system goes into a Suspend mode.
• Doze Mode : When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, the CPU clock
will run at slower speed while all other devices still operate at full speed.
• Standby Mode : When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, the fixed
disk drive and the video would be shut off while all other devices still operate at full
speed.
• Suspend Mode : When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, all
devices except the CPU will be shut off.
• PM Events : You may disable activity monitoring of some common I/O events and
interrupt requests so they do not wake up the system. The default wake-up event is
keyboard activity.
• HDD Ports Activity : When set to On (default), any event occurring at a HDD (serial)
port will awaken a system which has been powered down.
• COM Ports Activity : When set to On (default), any event occurring at a hard or
floppy drive port will awaken a system which has been powered down.
• LPT Ports Activity : When set to On (default), any event occurring at a LPT (printer)
port will awaken a system which has been powered down.
• VGA Activity : When set to On (default), any event occurring at VGA will awaken a
system which has been powered down.
The following is a list of IRQ's, Interrupt ReQuests, which can be exempted much as
the COM ports and LPT ports above can. When an I/O device wants to gain the
attention of the operating system, it signals this by causing an IRQ to occur. When
This option only writes blanks to the video buffer.
Select this option if your monitor supports the
Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS)
standard of the Video Electronics Standards to
select video power management values.
