Setup and Operation 2-15
Security
The Security screen lets you set a password to protect your data by allowing your system to
boot only after you enter a password.
When a system password is set, you must enter the password before you can enter Setup.
This feature allows only an authorized user to change system parameters.
You are not prompted to enter a password until you set an initial password. Your system is
not protected until you enter the initial password.
See “Security Options” later in this section for instructions on setting and using the system
password.
Power Savings
The Power Savings screen lets you select the level of power management, suspend mode,
and suspend/resume options.
Power Management Under AC Normally, whenever AC power is con-
nected to the NEC Versa 4000, power management is disabled. If you enable this
option, the system uses the power management mode (on or off) you set using the
Power Management option.
Power Savings A "Highest Performance" setting provides the greatest sys-
tem performance. "Longest Battery Life" provides maximum power saving, and
"Off" disables all power management timers. You can also customize the system's
power management by selecting "Custom Settings" and entering values for system
timeouts.
Suspend Mode Suspend mode has a method of operation called Sus-
pend/Resume that stores information in RAM and maintains RAM contents after
shutting down all local devices. You also have the option to select Save to File.
This saves all your open data files to a special file on the hard disk whenever the
system goes into Suspend mode. All your data is automatically recovered from
where you left off when you Resume.
Suspend Warning Tone This option lets you enable or disable a warning
tone when Suspend mode starts. It is best to keep this option enabled.
PCMCIA Power This option allows you to turn off power to the PCMCIA
slots in order to save system power. The slot's power cannot be turned off if a
card is installed in the slot.
