Customizing your notebook
Activating PowerPanel
When starting the computer, the PowerPanel battery status and the CPU icons appear in the system tray
by default.
When pointing on the PowerPanel battery status icon, you will see a tooltip with the active power
management profile.
You can select a power profile or a power management profile from the menu by right-clicking this icon.
You can use the Power Management Toolbar as well:
To use the Power Management Toolbar, proceed as follows:
1
Right-click the taskbar at the bottom of the screen.
2
Select Toolbars from the shortcut menu, then click Power Management.
Power Management appears on the taskbar ( you can change it into a floating window by dragging
and dropping it on your desktop).
3
Click on the first icon in the toolbar to open the profile menu.
4
Click the button corresponding to the profile.
5
The appropriate power management command will be activated.
When you use the battery pack as power source, your system selects the Maximum Battery Life power management profile by default. If you select
a different power management profile while using battery power, the same profile will be automatically selected the next time you use the battery
pack to power your computer.
