SP2 no CS

[Tsurugaya]

I can't get SP2 to get into connected standby in the Win 10 beta. It goes dark and then it won't come back on. Be it with the power button, closing the type cover off the charms bar. I'm ok with it being beta and all, just curious to know if it is widespread.

AFAIK SP2 and SP don't support CS.

The SP and SP2 use traditional Power Management, so Sleep (S3) or Hibernation (S4)....

Is CS a hardware thing? So the SP2 will always close down?

Here's a fair description of CS - Connected Standby - and the SP2 will Sleep or Hibernate but yes, it's off at that point.

I suppose I got confused. Before the Win 10 beta I could press the power button and I'd be back running again in a few seconds, but now I'm forced to do the 10 second shut down before I can start it up again. Since it was fast before I assumed that was CS, now I close the type cover or press the power button, it turns dark and then I can't get it going again unless I force a shut down. So I was wondering if other Win 10 users had the same problem.

That would be a bug in Windows 10 Power Management....closing the cover or pressing the power button should put a SP2 into the S3 Power State (Sleep) if configured correctly....
