Dell Precision 410 Mini Tower Systems User’s Guide
When installed, the service uses sensors to monitor the temperature of critical inter-
nal components. If a sensor detects a thermal event, the system first performs an
orderly operating system shutdown and then turns itself off. During the shutdown
phase, the power indicator flashes and a screen message notifies the user that the
system is shutting down.
If the ThermalShutdown service is unable to shut down the system, the system will
be shut down if Thermal Power-off is enabled in the System Setup program. (See
“Thermal Power-Off” in Chapter 3 for more information.)

The Auto Power On utility (available for MS-DOS only) enables your system to auto-
matically perform routine tasks in your absence. For example, you might want your
system to turn on at night and perform a backup procedure. To use the utility, you
need to create a batch file containing the command(s) or program(s) that you want
performed in your absence. The Auto Power On utility determines whether system
power was turned on by the power button or by the Auto Power On setting in the System
Setup program and passes this information on to your batch file, which initiates the appropriate
commands at system start-up. See “Auto Power On” in Chapter 3 for information on setting
Auto Power On in the System Setup program.
The following example shows the contents of a possible batch file.
NOTE: The first three lines of your batch file
must
match the first three lines in the follow-
ing example.
autopowr
if errorlevel 2 goto alarm
if errorlevel 1 goto button
:alarm
call alarm.bat
autopowr /off
:button
call button.bat
goto end
The autopowr /off command turns off your computer.
