Description
[15 Minutes]

book goes into Suspend mode. If you choose a factory combination
of parameters this field will display that setting. If you choose to
customize the parameters you will be able to set this yourself. Off
has no inactivity suspension.
[Suspend]
Sets the form of suspension state. If you choose Suspend, you will
suspend operation with power to system memory, and everything
else powered down or in a very low power state. If you choose
Save-to-Disk your notebook will save all of system memory and
the operating parameters to the hard drive before turning your
notebook to the pseudo-off condition.
[Off]
When set to After 1 Hour your notebook will automatically
save all of system memory and the operating parameters to the
hard drive and go to the pseudo-off if you leave your notebook in
Suspend mode for an hour.
[Off]
Sets whether or not to Resume from a suspension state when a
message is received by telephone line. This feature will not operate
if the Save-to-Disk mode is enabled. This feature applies to internal
and external modems.
[Off]
Sets whether or not to resume from a suspension state at a
designated time. This feature is available from either the Suspend
mode or the Save-to-Disk mode.
[00:00:00]
Sets the designated time, on a 24-hour clock, when the notebook
is to automatically resume operation from the Suspend state.
The format of the clock setting is hours:minutes:seconds. Each
segment of the time is set separately, either by incrementing or by
typing in the numbers. You move between the segments with the
[Tab] key or the [Shift]+[Tab] keys. This only applies when Resume
on Time is set to On.
