Idle Timeout - Dell Precision M4500 Administrator's Manual

The end user administrator can select the desired power package to use depending on the system usage.
With Intel ME WoL, after the time-out timer expires, the Intel ME remains in the M-off state until a command is sent to the
ME. After this command has been sent, the Intel ME will transition to an M0 or M3 state and will respond to the next
command that is sent. A ping to the Intel ME will also cause the Intel ME to go into an M0 or M3 state.
The Intel ME takes a short time to transition from the M-off state to the M0 or M3 state. During this time, Intel AMT will not
respond to any Intel ME commands. When the Intel ME has reached the M0 or M3 state, the system will respond to Intel ME
commands.
The following table illustrates the details of the power packages.
