Power Up and Power Down
7.1
Summary
The device has three main states:
State
Description
ON
Device is powered up and the screen is on.
OFF
Device has been switched off (it could be re-charging at the same time).
SUSPEND
Device is powered up but the screen is off.
Depending on how the device is configured, the device could be fully suspend
(screen off, CPU idle) or only partially (screen off, CPU on); and the device may,
or may not, be locked. When fully suspended, the battery drains more slowly.
When the device is ON:
•
Switch it OFF by pressing the power button for a second and answering OK at the on-screen
prompt that appears.
•
Alternatively, you can switch it OFF by holding the power button for approximately 6 to 10
seconds. This is a forced power-down and you should only do this if the method described
above is not possible.
•
After a period of inactivity, the Albert 2 may put itself to SUSPEND (partially or fully,
depending on the device configuration).
•
You can put the device to SUSPEND yourself by pressing the power button once (<1s).
•
If you put the device on the charging cradle the battery icon on the system bar indicates that
charging is in progress. Also the status LEDs in front of the charging cradle are lighting.
