Power management

Power management reduces the power consumption of certain components of the computer such as the
system power supply, processor, hard disk drives, and some monitors.

Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) BIOS

Being an ACPI BIOS system, the operating system is allowed to control the power management features
of the computer and the setting for Advanced Power Management (APM) BIOS mode is ignored. Not
all operating systems support ACPI BIOS mode.

Automatic Power-On features

The Automatic Power-On features within the Power Management menu allow you to enable and disable
features that turn on the computer automatically.
• RTC resume: You can specify a date and time at which the computer will be turned on automatically.
This can be either a single event or a daily event.
• Wake on LAN: If the computer has a properly configured token-ring or Ethernet LAN adapter card that is
Wake on LAN-enabled and there is remote network management software, you can use the Wake on LAN
feature. When you set Wake on LAN to Enabled, the computer will turn on when it receives a specific
signal from another computer on the local area network (LAN).
