Suspend Time Out (Minute)
This option specifies the length of the period of system inactivity when the computer is already in
Standby mode before the computer is placed in Suspend mode. In Suspend mode, nearly all power
use is curtailed. The settings are Disabled, 1 Min, 2 Min, and all one minute intervals up to and
including 15 Min. The default settings are Disabled.
Slow Clock Ratio
This option specifies the speed at which the system clock runs in power saving modes. The settings
are expressed as a ratio between the normal clock speed and the power down clock speed. The
settings are 1:1, 1:2 (half as fast as normal), 1:4 ((the normal clock speed), 1:8, 1:16, 1:32, 1:64, or
1:128. The default setting is 1:8.
Display Activity
This option specifies if AMIBIOS is to monitor activity on the display monitor for power conserva-
tion purposes. When this option is set to Monitor and there is no display activity for the length of
time specified in the value in Standby Time-Out (Min) option, the computer enters a power
saving state. The settings are Monitor or Ignore. The default setting is Ignore.
IRQ 3 - Monitor
IRQ 4 - Monitor
IRQ 5 - Ignore
IRQ 7 - Monitor
IRQ 9 - Ignore
IRQ 10 - Ignore
IRQ 11 - Ignore
IRQ 12 - Monitor
IRQ 13 - Ignore
IRQ 14 - Monitor
IRQ 15 - Monitor
These options enable event monitoring. When the computer is in a power saving mode, activity on
the named interrupt request line is monitored by AMIBIOS. When any activity occurs, the com-
puter enters Full On mode.
Each of these options can be set to Monitor or Ignore. The default setting for all options are as
indicated above .
