Utilities TOSHIBA Hardware Setup 141 NOTE ❖ The "USB Sleep and Charge function" only works for compatible ports. ❖ When "USB Sleep and Charge function" is Enabled, USB bus power (DC 5V) will be supplied to compatible ports even when the power of the computer is turned OFF. ❖ USB bus power (DC 5V) is similarly supplied to the external devices which are connected to the compatible ports. However, some external devices cannot be charged solely by supplying USB bus power (DC 5V). As for the specifications of the external devices, please contact the device manufacturer or check the specifications of the external devices thoroughly before use. ❖ Using the "USB Sleep and Charge function" to charge external devices will take longer than charging the devices with their own chargers. If external devices are connected to compatible ports when the AC adaptor is not connected to the computer, the battery of the computer will be depleted even when the power of the computer is turned OFF. ❖ As such, we recommend that you connect the AC adaptor to the computer when using the "USB Sleep and Charge function." ❖ External devices connected to the USB bus power (DC 5V) function that interfaces with the power ON/OFF of the computer may always be in an operational state. Metal paper clips or hair pins/clips will generate heat if they come into contact with USB ports. Do not allow USB ports to come into contact with metal products, for example when carrying the computer in your bag. USB Sleep and Charge function Settings-The default setting is Disabled.
