144 Utilities TOSHIBA Hardware Setup NOTE ❖ The “USB Sleep and Charge function” only works for compatible ports. ❖ When “USB Sleep and Charge function” is Enabled, USB bus power (DC 5V) will be supplied to compatible ports even when the power of the computer is turned OFF. ❖ USB bus power (DC 5V) is similarly supplied to the external devices which are connected to the compatible ports. However, some external devices cannot be charged solely by supplying USB bus power (DC 5V). As for the specifications of the external devices, please contact the device manufacturer or check the specifications of the external devices thoroughly before use. ❖ Using the “USB Sleep and Charge function” to charge external devices will take longer than charging the devices with their own chargers. If external devices are connected to compatible ports when the AC adaptor is not connected to the computer, the battery of the computer will be depleted even when the power of the computer is turned OFF. ❖ As such, we recommend that you connect the AC adaptor to the computer when using the “USB Sleep and Charge function.” ❖ External devices connected to the USB bus power (DC 5V) function that interfaces with the power ON/OFF of the computer may always be in an operational state. ❖ When there is a current overflow of the external devices connected to the compatible ports, USB bus power (DC 5V) supply may be stopped for safety reasons. Metal paper clips or hair pins/clips will generate heat if they come into contact with USB ports. Do not allow USB ports to come into contact with metal products, for example when carrying the computer in your bag. USB Sleep and Charge function Settings—The default setting is Disabled. Changing the setting to Enabled enables the use of this function. To change the setting, launch TOSHIBA Hardware Setup and click on the USB tab. There are two modes, Mode-1 and Mode-2 in Enabled. For normal use, set the setting to Mode-1.

NOTE Utilities TOSHIBA Hardware Setup 145 If the function does not work with Mode-1 setting, change it to Mode-2. Some external devices may not be able to use this function in either mode. When this happens, change the setting to Disabled. Setting item: Enabled (Mode-1) -- Enables the function Enabled (Mode-2) -- Enables the function Disabled (Default) -- Disables the function USB Wakeup function—This function restores the computer from Sleep Mode depending on the external devices connected to the USB ports. “USB Wakeup function” will supply USB bus power (DC 5V) to all USB ports, including compatible ports, even when the computer is in Sleep Mode. USB bus power (DC 5V) will not be supplied if the computer is in Hibernation Mode or shutdown state. When “USB Sleep and Charge function” is Enabled in TOSHIBA Hardware Setup, the “USB Wakeup function” does not work for compatible ports. The Wakeup setting (function to allow the Wakeup) check box will be displayed on the Device Manager and even though you can change the settings the “USB Wakeup function” will not work. If you want to use the “USB Wakeup function,” attach the mouse or keyboard to a USB port that does not have the “USB Sleep and Charge function”-compatible icon ( ), if you have a non-Sleep and Charge USB port available. If all USB ports have the USB Sleep and Charge function-compatible icon ( ), change the “USB Sleep and Charge function” setting to Disabled. The “USB Wakeup function” will now work, but the “USB Sleep and Charge function” will be disabled. By changing any of the options that appear in the dialog boxes and clicking Apply, you can reconfigure that function. Any options that you change will become default settings when you restart your system.
