Set it to Disable to turn off the power management function. Set it to User Define to choose your own parameters. See the Power Management Mode Table. This item lets you set the period of time after which the system enters into Suspend mode. The Suspend mode can be Power On Suspend or Suspend to Hard Drive, and it is selected in the "Suspend Mode Option". This option lets you specify the IDE HDD idle time before the device enters the power down state. This item is independent from the power states previously described in this section (Standby and Suspend). This is a specification of ACPI and supported by hardware. When Delay 4 sec. is selected, the soft power switch on the front panel can be used to control power On, Suspend and Off. If the switch is pressed less than 4 sec. during power On, the system will go into Suspend mode. If the switch is pressed longer than 4 sec, the system will be turned Off. The other setting is Instant-Off, where the soft power switch is only used to control On and Off, there is no need to press 4 sec, and there is no Suspend. Use PCI PME# Wake-Up system . PCI must meet PCI 2.2 specification. When Enabled, any fax/ modem activity wakes up the system from suspend mode. When enabled, any USB keyboard activity wakes up the system from S3 (STR, Suspend to RAM) mode. Use this option to determine the manner by which the system will power on after a power failure. Former Sts (former status) - System would return to its former running state prior to the power failure. On - System would be on full on state upon resuming from power failure. Off - System would remain off. Use this option to set the date and time for your computer to boot up. Date (of month) Alarm* - Indicate month when system will boot up. Set it to 0 if you want to boot everyday. Time (hh:mm:ss) Alarm* - Indicate the hour, minute and second when system will boot up.
