Description
Disables time-outs, selects a combination of time-outs, or
allows customized time-outs.
Enables automatic CPU power savings when running on
battery power. Absence of keyboard, mouse, and hard disk
activity could cause slower CPU response. For a model
without "900 B" after the serial number, this should normally
be Off to avoid interfering with time sensitive operations—
and this setting applies on both battery and ac power.
Sets the period of inactivity after which the computer goes
from On to Standby power mode.
Sets the period of inactivity after which the computer goes
from Standby to Suspend power mode. (Skips Standby
mode if that time-out is disabled.)
Sets whether the computer goes from Suspend to Hibernate
power mode after the indicated period of inactivity. (Skips
Suspend mode if that time-out is disabled.)
Sets the period of hard disk inactivity after which the hard
disk stops spinning. Also affects a hard disk drive in the
plug-in module bay.
Sets whether power management time-outs occur while the
ac adapter is connected.
Sets the action of the blue power button when pressed for
less than 4 seconds.

signal is received.
