Inactivity Timer Based On Last
This parameter allows you to choose what type of event is monitored
by Power Management. If you select User Event, the Inactivity
Timer for switching into Stand-By or Suspend is started from the last
time you press a Navigation button, a function key, or use the touch-
screen.
“System Events” include activity on the serial port, an active radio
session, IrDA activity, or an active application. If you select User/
System Event, then the Inactivity Timer starts from the last time a
User Event occurred or the last time System activity occurred. This
parameter has no impact on the Switch to Dim Inactivity Timer.

Switch To Dim
During the Dim state the backlight brightness is turned down after
the specified time has elapsed if the netpad does not receive any user
input, including activities such as a screen tap—any user-initiated
activity. When the netpad enters the Dim state, it begins to monitor
the time specified in the Switch to Stand-By menu (see Figure 2.11
on page 34). Tap the screen to bring the netpad out of Dim state.
