Reference Guide

Attribute Name Description
• Enabled - If the feature is set to enabled, the system powers up from the off state whenever
the lid is opened. This system powers on when powered either by the AC adapter or the
system battery.
• Disabled - If the feature is set to disabled, the system does not power up from the off state
whenever the lid is opened.
PowerUsageMode Sets the system power usage modes.
Possible values:
• PowerSaver - This mode reduces processor sustained power to enhance battery life
depending on the use case. This mode may impact system performance.
• Balanced - This mode balances performance, noise, temperature, and battery life. The default
option is set to Balanced Mode.
• Performance - This mode uses the processor's typical power and utilizes discrete graphics.
• HighPerformance - This mode increases processor sustained power to produce higher
system performance, but produces more noise, increases system surface temperature, and
reduces the battery life.
PrimaryBattChargeCfg
Configures the primary battery charge mode. The selected charging mode applies to all batteries
installed in the system.
Possible values:
• Adaptive — Battery settings are adoptively optimized based on your typical battery usage
pattern.
• Standard — Charges the battery at a standard rate.
• Express — Charges the battery faster using the express charging algorithm, Dell's fast
charging technology.
• PrimAcUse — Charges the battery while plugged in, a mode preferred by the users who
operate their systems while plugged in to an external power source.
• Custom — The battery charging starts and stops based on user settings specified in Primary
Battery Custom Charge Start and Primary Battery Custom Charge End.
SfpwakeOnLan
Enables the system to power on by a special LAN signal, or by a special SFP signal.
Possible values:
• SFP - Allows the system to be powered on by special SFP signals.
• LANSFP - Allows the system to be powered on by either by LAN, or by SFP signals.
• SFPPXE - Allows the system to be powered on by SFP signals, and immediately boot to PXE.
NOTE: This feature works only if the system is connected to AC power.
SleepMode
Determines which sleep mode to be used by the operating system.
NOTE: The BIOS can only support either Modern Standby sleep mode (connected or
disconnected), or S3 sleep mode.
Possible values:
• OSAutoSelection — Allows the operating system to select the appropriate sleep mode
automatically.
• ForceS3 — Forces the operating system to use the S3 sleep mode only.
SliceBattChargeCfg Configures the battery slice charging feature.
Possible values:
• Standard — The battery is charged over a long period of time.
• Express — Charges the battery in Express Charge mode using the express charging algorithm,
Dell's fast charging technology.
• PrimAcUse — Recommended setting for a user who primarily operates battery while plugged
in.
• Adaptive — Charges the battery in Express Charge mode using the express charging
algorithm, Dell's fast charging technology.
