Low Battery Alarms
How your RTC responds to a low battery condition is set under
Start/ Control Panel / Power Options / Alarms .
Two different power alarms can be enabled or disabled: the Low
Battery Alarm, and the Critical Battery Alarm.
Warning:
When battery power is low, the battery
indicator will flash red, and the alarm will display a
warning on your screen. Take immediate action, such
as saving files or connecting to the AC adapter, or data
may be lost.
Battery Charging
When you use the AC adapter to connect your RTC to a power
outlet, the internal battery will automatically begin to recharge.
While the battery is charging, the Battery Charge icon on the
Indicator panel will be active after 6~12 seconds. When the battery
is fully charged, the Battery Charge icon will turn off.
If your RTC is turned off, a fully discharged battery will take about 3
hours to recharge. If your RTC is turned on and is not in suspend
mode, it twill take about 4~5 hours to recharge the battery. Refer to
the following table:
Charging
System On (Under Screen Saver Mode 4~5 hours
System Off (Suspend to RAM) ~4 hours
Note: A fully charged Li-ion Battery can run the RTC for approximately 6.0
hours.
