After some extensive testing (oh, around 30 mins or so....) I have decided to make it available to the masses.....

Here is an image showing it's two states. http://www.riroc.com/flex/psdrmonitor.png You simply load it by clicking on the application, or put it in your startup folder and it will watch for PSDR loading and then it will disable power management. As soon as you close PSDR it enables the original Power Management state and your computer will again sleep or power save as normal. If anyone would like to try it, please email me direct so I can send you the link to download it. I would prefer it be tested by a few to start with and then I will make it available to all. Works on XP upwards and requires .NET 2.0 Have tested on XP and Win 7 with no issues. ------------------------------- Richard A Clafton, W5\G7EIX 'the brITish guy' - rclaf...@riroc.com RIROC - Hosting - Development - Technology - www.riroc.com -----Original Message----- From: Richard Clafton [mailto:rclaf...@riroc.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 28, 2010 3:29 PM To: 'Robert delaney'; 'FLEXRADIO' Subject: RE: [Flexradio] sleepy computer and PSDR It would be easy to write a service to monitor when PSDR is running and then disable Power Management. I'll add it to my little project list and see what I can come up with for you. -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Robert delaney Sent: Wednesday, July 28, 2010 5:59 AM To: FLEXRADIO Subject: Re: [Flexradio] sleepy computer and PSDR Thanks to everyone for the replies and the nifty files but the quest continues to find a fully automated way of doing this. Something controlled or triggered by PSDR. In other words something you don't have to remember to do. 73, Bob KA9UVY ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert delaney" <ka9...@hotmail.com> To: "FLEXRADIO" <flexradio@flex-radio.biz> Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2010 7:28 PM Subject: [Flexradio] sleepy computer and PSDR > I would like to know if someone could tell me how to allow power saving > or sleep mode on my PC ONLY when PSDR is NOT running? > I am not sure if there is a way to override power savings when a certain > program is running or not? > I would like to save energy here and heat but I turned my sleep mode off > since it would come on while PSDR was running and I didn't want to cause > problems. > > running WinXP Home SP3 > > Thanks, 73 > Bob > KA9UVY > _______________________________________________ > FlexRadio Systems Mailing List > FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz > http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz > Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ > Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: > http://www.flex-radio.com/ > _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
