Traveling with your R12 Tablet PC
Use the following tips when you travel with your R12 Tablet PC:
•
Put the Tablet PC in a case to protect the display. Motion Computing sells a variety of
cases for the R12. You can purchase one at the
Motion Computing
Accessories
page.
•
Store the pen in the pen bay located on the right side of the tablet.
•
Pack the Tablet PC securely in a briefcase or hand-carried luggage and keep it separate
from toiletries, liquids, and food. Don’t pack it in checked luggage.
•
Before extended use in the field or long trips away from AC power, adjust the power
properties to maximize battery conservation. See
Changing the power plan
on page 46.
•
For international travel, use the appropriate power cord for your destination’s electrical
outlets. You don’t need to buy a voltage converter; the Motion AC adapter will
automatically adjust to different voltages.
•
You may want to carry proof of ownership or a merchandise passport when traveling
internationally.
•
Consult your insurance and credit card companies to learn about emergency travel
assistance in case your Tablet PC becomes lost or disabled.
•
Don’t carry your tablet through a metal detector.
•
Turn off the Tablet PC or place it in Hibernation mode for airplane takeoff and landing.
