Using Powerprofiler - Samsung N640 User Manual

Using PowerProfiler

PowerProfiler enables you to set power-management options for computer
shipped with Windows NT installed. To open the PowerProfiler window, double-
click the battery icon on the right corner of the Windows taskbar. If you click the
icon with the right mouse button, a menu appears with an option to put the
computer in Rest mode.
Click the Standard tab in PowerProfiler to set timeouts for the LCD and the hard
drive. You can also set power management to be enabled Always, Battery Only, or
Never. The Advanced screen in PowerProfiler enables resume from rest options,
and the Battery screen enables options to conserve battery life.
Keep the following in mind when using PowerProfiler:
If you disable power management in PowerProfiler, the setting overrides any
power-management settings in System Setup.
If you enable LCD and hard drive timeouts in PowerProfiler and the standby
timeout in System Setup, the LCD and hard drive turn off when the shortest
timeout period in either program passes.
If you disable the Resume on Time field in System Setup, the same field in
PowerProfiler is also automatically disabled. An easy way to work with these
two fields is to set the resume time to 0 in System Setup and set the actual
resume time that you desire in PowerProfiler.
For more information on PowerProfiler, see the Help option in the PowerProfiler
software.
