Keyboard Panel and Base Unit

The NEC Versa keyboard panel and base unit contain the following features that
are described after the figure.
T
Power/Sleep Button — press the Power/Sleep button to power on, power
off, and to put the computer into Suspend mode. Your NEC Versa ships
with the button set to Power functionality. To use the Sleep functionality,
refer to "BIOS Setup" in Chapter 2 for setting up the Power/Sleep
functions.
The Power/Sleep button is a "smart" switch, meaning that it recognizes
when the system is in Suspend mode. If in Suspend mode, you cannot
power off until you press the Power/Sleep button again to bring it out of
Suspend mode.
In addition, the Smart Power switch invokes an orderly shutdown in the
Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT environments. If you use
the Power/Sleep button to turn off your system while applications are
running, the Smart Power switch alerts the operating system. The
operating system prompts you to save all data and invokes an orderly
shutdown procedure.
