battery is also displayed.

Advanced Power Tab features include the ability to show the Suspend command on the

Start menu, whether the Suspend command appears when the computer is docked or

undocked, and whether the computer will wake up when the telephone rings (for

computers connected to phone lines). Troubleshooting options are also available under

the Advanced Power Tab features.

Disk Drives

The Disk Drives Tab is used to set up the time the Windows operating system waits

before switching the disk drive to low power mode when the computer is powered by

AC power and battery.

PC Card Modems Tab

When PC Card modems are installed, they draw power from the system even when

they are not in use. For optimum power conservation, follow this guideline when using

PC Card modems: if PC Card modems are kept in the computer, set the PC Card

Modems tab to turn off power to PC Card modems when they are not in use.

Otherwise, remove PC Card modems when they are not being used.

Product Description 1-9

Resume Time Tab

When all power sources (AC power, battery pack, auxiliary battery, and real time clock

(RTC) battery) to the computer are disconnected, the system date and time are reset to

the settings established in this tab.

Battery Status Tab

The Battery Status tab provides the following information:

■The position of possible battery pack locations in the computer

■An illustration of each battery pack and the bay where it is installed in the computer

■The status (high, low, critical, and charging) of each battery pack

■The percentage of charge remaining in each battery pack

■Which battery pack, if any, is currently charging

Battery Conservation Tab

The Battery Conservation tab allows you to select the level of battery conservation:

High, Medium, None (Drain), or Custom. Medium conservation is the default setting.

In addition to accessing this tab through the Power menu and Power Management, you

can press hotkeys Fn+F7 in any application. A popup window displays the current

battery level. Use the left or right arrow to select a different level.

➊High Conservation—Provides maximum battery conservation and the most battery

life from a single charge.

➋Medium Conservation (Default Setting)—Provides a balance between system

performance and battery life.

➌None (Drain)—Turns off the battery conservation features, which allows the system

to run at full speed. This setting also causes the computer to fail to initiate

Hibernation. At other conservation settings, the computer automatically initiates

Hibernation when it reaches a low-battery condition, even if Hibernation has been

manually disabled.

CAUTION: Before setting the battery conservation level to None (Drain), ensure that the

Hibernation feature has not been disabled.

➍Custom—Allows you to specify conservation settings for Suspend, system idle,

screen save, processor speed, and brightness. Refer the following section for

information on timeouts.

1-10 Product Description

Hibernation Tab

The Hibernation tab allows you to enable or disable Hibernation and to set the timeout

periods after which the system initiates Hibernation. For Hibernation to work, it must

allocate space on the hard drive equal to the amount of system memory. Turning off

Hibernation is not recommended by Compaq; however, it is possible to free up this

disk space by disabling Hibernation.

CAUTION: Turning off Hibernation is not recommended. If the computer reaches a

low-battery condition and Hibernation has been disabled, unsaved information is lost.

When the computer is restarted after adding memory, the system first upgrades the

memory, then allocates or updates the disk space to adjust to the new amount of

memory.

NOTE: If you experience problems with Hibernation after upgrading the memory, go to

the Power icon and click the Hibernation tab to reset the system memory.

Timeouts are specified periods of system or component inactivity designed to conserve

power. When a timeout period expires, battery conservation shuts down the system or

the specified components to save power.

For example, the hard drive idle default timeout is two minutes. If an application does

not access information on the hard disk for two minutes, the hard drive shuts down

until it is accessed again.

These guidelines can aid in choosing the most appropriate timeouts for the computer:

1. The preset timeout provides the medium (default) or high level of battery

conservation.

2. Customized timeouts, which are set through the custom level of battery

conservation, allow the computer to work more efficiently with applications on the

computer.
