SmartPower is a small, easy to use Windows service specially designed to save energy by hibernating and resuming your PC according to configurable rules.
SmartPower configuration utility lets you create rulesto hibernate (or suspend, or shutdown) your PC. When SmartPower sees that no rules currently apply it will initiate the process.
The potential rules are:
· One or more schedules are active - A schedule is a period of time during which the PC must stay on. By default SmartPower will wake-up your PC in order to honour a schedule.
· One or more devices are online - A device is anything on your network that will respond to a ping.
· Network throughput (the bytes flowing through a particular interface) is above a configurable threshold.
· CPU usage is above a configurable threshold.
· One or more processes are running - A process is a Windows process.
What's New in This Release:
· Fixed bug that resulted in incorrect wake-up times for PCs using non-zero GMT offsets. (That will teach me to change working code so that it better matches the Windows API documentation!)
