Low Battery State
When the battery is running low and the Battery
Level Indicator shows 3% on lower battery ,
your Tablet PC will go into Standby mode to try
and protect your data for as long as possible.
There is no guarantee that your data will not be
once the Tablet PC reaches the point.
You may not be able to hear the alarm
if the volume control is set too low or is
turned off by the hardware or software.
However, you will be able to see the
Battery Level indicator flash Once the
low battery alarm occurs you must save
all your data and put your Tablet PC into
Standby mode until you can provide a
new power source. You should provide a
charged battery or AC Adapter as soon
as possible.
When you are in Standby mode there
must always be at least one power
source active. If you remove all power
sources while your Tablet PC in Standby
mode, any data that has not been saved
to the hard drive will be lost.
Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the
Status indicator just like the normal Standby
mode. Once your Tablet PC goes into Dead
Battery Suspend mode you will be unable to
resume operation until you provide a source
of power either from an adapter, or a charged
battery. Once you have provided power, you
will ned to press the Suspend/Resume button
to resume operation. In the Dead Battery
Suspend mode, your data can be maintained
for some time, but if a power source is not
provided promptly, the POwer indicator will
stop flashing and go out stored. Once you
provide power, you can continue to use your
Tablet PC while an adapter is charging the
battery.
Shorted Batteries
The Status Indicator panel uses a symbol
inside the battery outline of the Battery
Level indicator to display the operating level
available in that battery. If this display shows
a Shorted Battery, it means that the battery is
damaged and must be replaced so it does not
damage any other parts of your Tablet PC.
