Placing a PC (with soft power off function) in a ready-to-operate state by means of software
With the soft power off function the PC automatically switches off (standby) or switches into the energy
saving mode after the operating system is shut down. Requirements: Your system must support
switching off with software and this functionality must be enabled in BIOS Setup. The soft power off
software may also need to be installed on Windows NT systems.
