Power Menu

Selecting "Power" from the menu bar displays a screen with the power management
parameters. Use the Power menu to specify the settings for Power Management. The
parameters are described in Table Section 2-10.
A power-management system reduces the amount of energy used after specified periods of
inactivity. The Power menu supports a Full On state, a Standby state with partial power
reduction, and a Suspend state with full power reduction.
Use the legend keys to make the selections and exit to the Main Menu.

Description
Enabled requires a password on boot (cold boot
only, no password required for warm boot).
Requires the prior setting of the Supervisor
and/or User password.
If disabled, password(s) are required for entering
Setup but are not required for booting.
If Supervisor password is set and this option is
disabled, the BIOS boots without asking for a
password.
Supervisor setting restricts use of diskette drives
to supervisor. Requires setting the Supervisor
password.
Write protected helps prevent viruses. When
write protected, operating systems (and viruses
and application programs) which attempt to
modify the boot sector will not be able to do so.
When a schedule is specified, displays a
message during bootup asking (Y/N) if the system
has been backed up or scanned for viruses.
Message returns on each boot until "Y" is
responded.
Daily displays the message on the first boot of the
day, weekly on the first boot after Sunday, and
monthly on the first boot of the month.
