8. Why doesn't Wake on Approach work when I put my computer to sleep?
If you put your computer to sleep manually, the Dell WB7022 webcam detects you in the FOV (field
of view) before the system goes to sleep. This is when the Wake on Approach feature does not work.
By design, it works only when the Walk Away Lock triggers the computer to go to sleep. When your
presence is detected later, Wake on Approach will take less than 10 seconds to wake up the system.
