Item Function
Monitor
Video
Activity
Sets up the system to monitor video activity. If enabled, any
activity on the screen (such as displaying a movie) prevents the
monitor from powering down. Available options are Enabled or
Disabled.
Suspend
Timeout
Sets the timeout period for the system to enter Suspend Mode if
not in use during a pre-set period.
The Suspend Mode is determined by the “Suspend Type” item in
the “Suspend Controls” submenu. Choices may be Suspend-to-
RAM or Suspend-to-Disk.
When Suspend-to-RAM (Standby) mode is initiated, several
subsystems enter standby or power-off mode to conserve power.
The system wakes up when a key is pressed. “Resume Timer”
and “Ring Resume” items will also wake the system from
Suspend-to-RAM mode.
When Suspend-to-Disk (Hibernation) mode is initiated, the
system preserves all running application programs as a file in a
suspend-to-disk partition on the hard disk. Available options are
1 Min, 5 Min, 10 Min, 20 Min, 30 Min, and Never.
Suspend-
to-Disk
Sets the timeout period for the system to enter Suspend-to-Disk
mode if not in use during a set period.
When Suspend-to-Disk mode is initiated, the system preserves
all running application programs as a file in a suspend-to-disk
partition on the hard disk. Available options are 1 Min, 5 Min,
10 Min, 20 Min, 30 Min, and Never.
The Suspend-to-Disk item functions regardless of the “Suspend
Timeout” setting and the “Suspend Type” setting in the “Suspend
Controls” submenu. If the timing of this item is shorter that that of
“Suspend Timeout”, the system directly enters Suspend-to-Disk
mode if inactive for the timing.
