Derived methods (2) of Win32_Battery class

Reset method
Returnuint32 {'out':True}
Description'Requests a reset of the logical device. The return value should be 0 if the request was successfully executed, 1 if the request is not supported and some other value if an error occurred.'
Reset method is in 104 classes of ROOT\CIMV2\ms_409 and in 19 namespaces
SetPowerState method
Returnuint32 {'out':True}
Parameters
NameCIMTypeIDINOUTQualifiers
PowerStateuint160-{'Values':['Full Power', 'Power Save - Low Power Mode', 'Power Save - Standby', 'Power Save - Other', 'Power Cycle', 'Power Off']}
Timedatetime1-
Description'SetPowerState defines the desired power state for a logical device and when a device should be put into that state. The desired power state is specified by setting the PowerState parameter to one of the following integer values: 1="Full Power", 2="Power Save - Low Power Mode", 3="Power Save - Standby", 4="Power Save - Other", 5="Power Cycle" or 6="Power Off". The Time parameter (for all state changes, except 5, "Power Cycle") indicates when the power state should be set, either as a regular date-time value or as an interval value (where the interval begins when the method invocation is received). When the PowerState parameter is equal to 5, "Power Cycle", the Time parameter indicates when the device should power on again. Power off is immediate. SetPowerState should return 0 if successful, 1 if the specified PowerState and Time request is not supported, and some other value if any other error occurred. In a subclass, the set of possible return codes could be specified, using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are 'translated' may also be specified in the subclass as a Values array qualifier.'
SetPowerState method is in 105 classes of ROOT\CIMV2\ms_409 and in 14 namespaces
