Two levels of password security, supervisor and
user, are available to prevent unauthorized access
to your computer.
A hot key function blanks the LCD screen and
disables the computer providing data security.
A microprocessor in the computer's intelligent
power supply detects the battery's charge and
calculates the remaining battery capacity. It also
protects electronic components from abnormal
conditions, such as voltage overload from an AC
adaptor. You can monitor remaining battery
capacity. Use the Battery remaining item in
TOSHIBA Power Saver.
This feature lets you save battery power. You can
specify the Power Save Mode in the Profile item
in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
This feature turns power to the computer off when
the computer's LCD display panel is closed and
turns it back on when the computer's LCD display
panel is opened. You can specify the setting in the
When I close the lid item of the Setup Action tab
in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
When battery power is exhausted to the point that
computer operation cannot be continued, the
system automatically enters Hibernation and
shuts down. You can specify the setting in the
Setup Action tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
To protect from overheating, the CPU has an
internal temperature sensor. If the computer's
internal temperature rises to a certain level, the
cooling fan is turned on or the processing speed
is lowered. Use the Cooling Method item of the
Basic Setup tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
