Putting the PC into Standby
and Hibernation Mode
As an alternative to shutting down the PC, you
can put the PC in standby mode. To conserve
power, you can automatically put the PC into
standby and then hibernation by setting the
power management timers.
Standby mode
When the PC is in standby mode, it goes into a
low-power state and the monitor is blank as if it’s
turned off. The next time you use the PC, any
programs, folders, and documents that were
open before you put the PC in standby will be
available. With standby mode, you can save
electricity without having to wait for the PC to
go through the normal startup routine when you
turn it on.
Standby mode also allows faxes to come
through to the PC, and it enables the PC to
automatically retrieve e-mail messages and
download information from the Internet, if
you have programmed the PC to do so.
To manually put the PC in standby:
1
Press the Standby button on the
keyboard. The screen goes dark, and the
PC goes into standby mode.
2
When you want to use the PC again, press a
key on the keyboard, or press the Standby
button. The screen display reappears just as
you left it.
