Energy-saving modes of workstation
You can set two energy-saving modes with your workstation.
In the Suspend mode (Suspend to DRAM/Standby) all current data (active programmes, files) are
buffered in the main memory, and in the Save-to-Disk mode (Save to Disk/HibernateMode) all current
data are saved on the hard disk. Then the workstation is switched off. After the workstation is
switched on, you can continue working exactly where you left off before.
