4-6 Auto Green Auto Green is an easy-to-use tool that provides users with simple options to enable system power savings via a Bluetooth cell phone. When the phone is out of the range of the computer's Bluetooth receiver, the system will enter the specified power saving mode. The Configuration dialog box: First, you have to set your Bluetooth cell phone as a portable key. On the Auto Green main menu, click Configure and then click Configure BT devices. Select the Bluetooth cell phone that you want to use as the portable key (Note .1) (If the screen doesn't display your Bluetooth cell phone, click Refresh to let Auto Green re-detect the device.) Before creating a Bluetooth cell phone key, make sure your motherboard has a Bluetooth receiver and you have turned on the search and Bluetooth functions on your phone. Configuring the Bluetooth cell phone key: After you select a cell phone, the Add device as shown on the left will appear. Enter a passkey (8~16 digits recommended) which will be used for pairing with the cell phone. Then enter the same passkey on your cell phone. Configuring other Bluetooth settings: On the Other Settings tab, you can set how much time it takes to scan your Bluetooth cell phone key, how many times to rescan the key to make sure it is in range of your computer, and when to turn off the hard drive if the system energy saving state lasts over the predetermined period of time. After completing the settings, click Set for the settings to take effect and then click Exit to quit. • Device Scan Time (sec.): Set the length of time Auto Green scans your Bluetooth cell phone key, ranging from 5 to 30 seconds in 5-second increment. Auto Green searches for the key based on the length of time you set. • Rescan Times: Set how many times Auto Green will rescan your Bluetooth cell phone key if it does not detect it, ranging from 2 to 5 times. Auto Green will keep rescanning according to the times you set. When the times limit is reached and your Bluetooth cell phone key is still not detected, the system will enter the selected energy saving mode. • Turn off HD: Set when to turn off the hard drive. If the system inactivity time exceeds the specified time limit, the hard drive will be turned off. Selecting a system energy saving mode: Depending on your needs, select a system power saving mode on the Auto Green main menu and click Save to save the settings.
