Introduction
Power on password Two levels of password security, supervisor and
user, are available to prevent unauthorized
access to your computer.
Instant security A hot key function blanks the LCD screen and
disables the computer providing data security.
Intelligent power
supply
A microprocessor in the computer’s intelligent
power supply detects the battery’s charge and
calculates the remaining battery capacity. It also
protects electronic components from abnormal
conditions, such as voltage overload from an AC
adaptor. You can monitor remaining battery
capacity by using the Battery remaining item in
TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Battery save mode This feature lets you save battery power. You can
specify the Power Save Mode in the Profile item
in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Panel power on/off This feature turns power to the computer off
when the computer’s LCD display panel is closed
and turns it back on when the computer’s LCD
display panel is opened. You can specify the
setting in the When I close the lid item of the
Setup Actions tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Low battery
automatic
hibernation
When battery power is exhausted to the point that
computer operation cannot be continued, the
system automatically enters Hibernation and
shuts down. You can specify the setting in the
Setup Actions tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Heat dispersal To protect from overheating, the CPU has an
internal temperature sensor. If the computer’s
internal temperature rises to a certain level, the
cooling fan is turned on or the processing speed
is lowered. Use the Cooling Method item of the
Basic Setup tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
HDD Protection Using the acceleration sensor built in the
computer, the HDD Protection function detects
vibration, shocks, and those signs in the
computer, and automatically moves the HDD
(Hard Disk Drive) head to the safe position to
reduce the risk of damage that could be caused
to the disk by head-to-disk contact. Refer to the
Using the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Protection
section in Chapter 4, Operating Basics, for
details.
