TP 510 - Power Management Features

Applicable to: World-Wide

Power Management Features:
Press Func+F3 to select Power Management setup (any time after the computer is powered-on).

Important:
Before using the power saving features, be sure to read and observe the following precautions:
If you enter Suspend or Hibernate mode with a diskette inserted in the diskette drive, the same diskette must be installed in the drive before attempting to resume normal operation. If you enter Suspend or Hibernate mode with a PCMCIA card inserted in the PCMCIA slot, the same PCMCIA card must be installed in the slot before attempting to resume normal operation. Hibernate mode does not save/restore the status of PCMCIA cards. When you resume normal operation from Hibernate mode, the PCMCIA card is no longer configured and will not be recognized by the computer. If the computer is connected to a Local Area Network (LAN) that periodically polls for station activity, the LAN-connection might be terminated while the computer is in Suspend or Hibernate mode. Any further attempt to access the network results in a brief delay and the computer appears to hang (up to 1 minute, depending on the network). After the delay, an error is displayed. Follow the instructions on the screen to restore normal operation. Any software program that was running over the LAN is not re-entered when you resume normal operation from Hibernate or Suspend modes.
