The Power Viewer tool is one of the Configuration Manager tools. Use it to view the status of the power management feature on a Configuration Manager client.

Run PowerVwr.exe as an administrator. When the tool launches, it displays the power capabilities and power settings of the local computer on the Power Config tab.

To view the power management data of a remote computer:

  1. Go to the File menu, and click Connect.

  2. Enter the Computer name, and a Username and Password, if necessary.

There are three tabs in Power Viewer:

  • Power Config: View the power capabilities and power settings of the targeted computer.

  • Daily Activity: View the daily activity charts of the client, which includes the following information:

    • Computer on: The power status of the computer in one day. Sleep mode is considered as power off.

    • Monitor on: On or off status of monitor in one day.

    • User Active: User activity information in one day.

  • Power Events: View all of the daily power events. The client summarizes these events at 12:00 AM. This summarization generates data for the daily activity chart.
