User's Manual
Hot keys are specific key combinations that let
you quickly change the system configuration
directly from the keyboard without running a
system program.
This feature automatically cuts off power to the
computer's display panel when there is no
*1
keyboard input for a specified time, with power
being restored the next time a key is pressed.
This can be specified in the Power Options.
This feature automatically cuts off power to the
hard disk drive when it is not accessed for a
*1
specified time, with power being restored when
the hard disk drive is next accessed. This can be
specified in the Power Options.
This feature automatically shuts down the system
into either Sleep Mode or Hibernation Mode when
there is no input or hardware access for a
*1
specified time. This can be specified in the Power
Options.
Two levels of password security, supervisor and
user, are available to prevent unauthorized
access to your computer.
A specific hot key function automatically locks the
system providing data security.
To protect against overheating, the processor has
*1
an internal temperature sensor so that, if the
computer's internal temperature rises to a certain
level, the cooling fan is turned on or the
processing speed is lowered. This can be
specified in the Power Options.
This feature lets you turn off the power to the
computer without exiting from your software. The
contents of main memory are automatically
saved to the hard disk drive so that when you
next turn the power on again, you can continue
working right where you left off. Refer to the
Turning off the power
Getting Started, for more details.
If you have to interrupt your work, you can use
this feature to allow you to turn off power to the
computer without exiting from your software. Data

that when you next turn on the power, you can
continue working right where you left off.
