must be set to Enabled. If you want to use the time-out options while using AC power, the AC

Primary Password
Primary Password displays the current status of the primary password and allows you to
assign or change this password.
Settings for this option are:
● Disabled (the default) - Indicates that no primary password is assigned
● Enabled - Indicates that a primary password is currently assigned
If you assign a primary password, the computer prompts you for the password each time you
boot the computer.
CAUTION: The password features provide a high level of security for the data in
your computer. However, they are not foolproof. If your data requires more
security, it is your responsibility to obtain and use additional forms of protection,
such as data encryption programs or PC Cards with encryption features.
Ring/Event Resume
Ring/Event Resume lets you determine if the computer exits suspend mode when an installed
modem card receives an incoming call. this feature must be supported by your modem PC
Card and your operating system, and must be enabled in the modem device driver.
Settings for this option are:
● Disabled (the default) - Resumes normal operation when the computer detects a modem
ring
● Enabled - Keeps the computer in suspend mode when the computer detects a modem
ring
NOTES: Dell recommends that you set Ring/Event Resume to Disabled when an
external serial device, other than a modem, is connected to your computer.
