• Select either Continuous Access Mode (CAM) or Power Save Polling (PSP) mode.
CAM yields the best performance but uses the most power, so is preferred for
systems running on AC power. PSP saves significant amounts of power over CAM,
ideal for systems running on battery power.
• If you select PSP mode, set a Power Save Poll (PSP) Option, which specifies the
number of ticks the adapter sleeps before waking up to check for data. Each tick is
0.1 second.
• Select Let adapter manage power to automatically vary the PSP options
depending on the amount of data that is being sent or received by the adapter.
