Extending Battery Life
You can extend the PA600 battery life by doing either of the following:
•
Change the automatic power settings
•
Minimize the use of backlight
Changing the Automatic Power Settings
The PA600 will enter idle mode when there is no task, or all tasks are waiting for input.
In default setting, the PA600 automatically turns itself off if it remains idle for 3 minutes
and when there is no external charging power connected. Pressing the power button
returns the PA600 to the same point at the time of automatic shutdown.
To change the automatic power settings:
1. In the Power screen tap the
Advanced
tab.
2. Tap the automatic shut off time arrow to select
from a list of time periods. The available time
periods are 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 minutes.
3. This function can also be activated when the
PA600 is plugged into the power adapter or
placed in its docking station by tapping the
On
external power
check box and then tapping the
arrow to select from a list of time periods. The
available time periods are 1, 2, 5,10, 15 and 30
minutes.
