2140 and PSUmoni Observations and Questions

[bos]

Hi Guys

Just upgraded a 1900 to a 2140 and it's great to finally have some control over the PSU settings!

Observations:

- When first using the 2140 without PSUmoni, it would kill all power stone dead as soon as the ignition was turned off. It took me a while to figure out that all the settings were at 0 - ie there were no defaults. Connecting to PSUmoni and hitting Reset then Update solved that.

- The PSUmoni application is great, but some written documentation would really help. The movies online (which incidentally, play for me only in Explorer/Windows) are great as a general tour, but they're hard to refer to.

Questions

- Can you please explain the difference between SD_DLY and SD_LO?

- If I modify my Mac Mini Server to be able to safe sleep, do I set the power jumper to Hibernate also, and either SD_DLY or SD_LO to give the unit enough time to write memory to disk?

- It is in any way possible to mimic the way a portable device works - using Sleep until insufficient power is available to maintain this, then performing Safe Sleep (based on LO_BAT or DMT settings)?

- Does the 2140 retain it's internal settings and feed them to PSUmoni? I ask because it seems that I lose my settings if I move the 2140 USB connection from one computer to another.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide!
