Using Power Management
The DeskNote provides you with some built-in power management features to
reduce the power consumption without affecting the performance of the system.
Advanced Power Management (APM 1.2)
The DeskNote provides built-in Advanced Power Management (APM 1.2)
supporting to reduce power consumption. APM function varies depending on the
operating system you are using. Some operating systems do not support APM,
such as Windows NT, and therefore, cannot take advantage of the system’s
capabilities in this area.
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
(ACPI 1.0)
The ACPI interface gives the operating system (OS) direct control over the power
management and Plug and Play functions of a computer. The operating system can
perform the functions covered by the ACPI specification, such as system power
management, device power management, and thermal management.
