Power Management Support
CardWizard for Windows NT provides support for power
management.
Power management is a function to conserve the
battery life of your computer.
Battery power is conserved when your
computer enters suspend mode.
Then, many devices are powered
off and others run at lower power consumption levels.
When
operation is resumed (when the computer exits from suspend mode),
the computer returns to the state it was before it entered suspend
mode.
Programs and data that were in use before suspend mode
began are restored.
Suspend Mode Support
With CardWizard, you can use PC Card devices over a
suspend-resume cycle.
The PC Card Controller and the cards are
powered off when your computer enters suspend mode.
However,
each card type is handled differently to prevent data loss or machine
crash through the suspend-resume event.
