7.9 UPS - Uninterruptible Power Supply (optional)
On request, the devices can be delivered with a backup battery integrated in the service slot cover.
This backup battery ensures that the system continues to operate normally in the event of brief power
failures. With longer power failures, the system can be shut down automatically after the data has been
saved.
Recommendations:
•
CPU-intensive operations should only be performed in mains mode.
•
Peripherals with a high power requirement (e.g. external USB hard drives) should be used in
mains mode only. Mouse, keyboard and USB sticks, however, do not present a significant load.
The following sections show examples of configuration options for battery mode under Windows 10. The
examples apply accordingly to other operating systems.
Owing to its limited capacity, the UPS battery is suitable for bridging only brief power
failures. It is therefore always important to keep power requirements in battery mode
to a minimum.
The computer can only be restarted when the power supply unit is connected.
ATTENTION
Power failures during system updates can damage the operating system
It is strongly recommended not to install programme updates or system updates in battery mode.
Even if the system shuts down at a critical battery capacity, it cannot be guaranteed that updates
prior to the shutdown have been fully installed.
•
Do not start updates in battery mode!
