Standby Mode
When the system standby mode timer times-out, it will enter the standby
mode and retain CPU at slow working speed. The screen will be blanked out.
Suspend Mode
When the system suspend timer times-out, the system will enter the suspend
mode and the chipset will stop CPU clock immediately. The power consump-
tion in Suspend Mode is lower than in standby mode. The screen is also
blanked out.
HDD Standby Mode
When system stop reading or writing HDD, the timer starts to count. The
system will cut off the HDD power when timer runs out of time. The system
will not resume operation until either a read from or a write to HDD com-
mand is executed again.
Wake Up Events
When the system is in Doze, suspend or Standby mode, you may disable
activity monitoring of some common interrupt requests so they do not wake
up the system.
The default wake-up event is keyboard activity. In these wake-up event
fields, you can turn On or Off four commonly used interrupts. For example, if
you have a modem on IRQ3, you can turn On IRQ3 as a wake-up event, so an
interrupt from the modem can wake up the system. Or you may wish to turn
Off IRQ12 (the PS/2) mouse as a wake-up event, so accidentally brushing the
mouse does not awaken the system.
Power Down and Resume Events
You may disable monitoring of common interrupt requests so they do not
reset activity timers.
