4Please remember...

This computer system is shipped with the latest Energy Star power-saving features

already activated, allowing you to be more environmentally friendly in your

work. It is intended to help reduce global power consumption, and ultimately

waste and pollution. This computer system is designed, when left unattended,

to enter a ‘Low Power’ mode followed by ‘Standby’ mode shortly afterwards.

LOW POWER MODE

In this state the screen will be blank but your software will still be running,

although it will run much slower.

You can Restore the system by moving the mouse, pressing any keyboard key, or

by pressing the purple STANDBY button on either the front panel, or the

remote control.The computer will quickly restore to the state in which you left

it. The monitor may take a few seconds to warm up again.

STANDBY MODE

In this state the monitor will be in a controlled ‘off’ state. The system and

software will assume a frozen state. You will not lose any unsaved data, unless

your mains electricity supply fails. The system fans will slow down or stop

altogether.

You can Restore the system by pressing the purple STANDBY button on the

front panel of the system or the one on the remote control. The computer will

quickly restore to the state in which you left it. The monitor may take a few

seconds to warm up again.

NOTE

Pressing either of the STANDBY buttons when the system is in normal use will

put the system directly into standby mode.

You can change any of the above settings. How to

access the Apricot power Manager is shown in the

chapter ‘The multimedia applications’. Refer also to

the application’s help file.
