Advanced Power Management

The PC 365 comes with energy-saving software that meets Energy Star requirements. Advanced Power

Management (APM) is a feature that reduces the power consumption when the entire system or

components of the computer system are not in use. When enabled, APM initiates reduced-power modes

for the monitor, microprocessor, hard disk drive, or the entire system after a specified period of inactivity is

reached.

APM is implemented according to

APM BIOS Interface Specification 1.2

. For more information on APM,

Diagnostic Programs

Two diagnostic products are supplied with the PC 365: QAPlus/WIN-WIN, a Windows program, provides

the best software coverage; QAPlus/PRO for DOS provides the best hardware coverage. For more
