Q25. How do you manually put the ActionNote 4SLC/25 in ‘suspend mode”?
A25. This can be accomplished by sliding the ‘Suspend/Resume” button to the
right or by closing the ActionNote 4SLC25 LCD.
Q26.
How do you “resume” the ActionNote 4SLC/25?
A26. A keystroke should “wake-up” the ActionNote. Preferably, the spacebar
should be used.
Q27. What if the computer has entered the Standby timeout mode and a
keystroke doesn’t bring it back to normal operating mode?
A27. There are some applications that may intercept any keystrokes before they
can be seen by the system BIOS. You may have to disable the timeout in
SETUP (or VGACONF.EXE ) to use the problem application on battery
power.
Q28. Any other power saving tips?
A28. One more - with the keyboard NUMLOCK on, use the keyboard command
<Ctrl>-<Alt>-<+/-> [ on the embedded numeric keypad ] to change the CPU
speed from 25MHz to 8MHz. This can save a significant amount of power
and, with several types of applications (such as word processing), the system
will not appear to be appreciably slower.
Q29. How’s the software compatibility with the Epson ActionNote 4SLC/25?
A29. Very good. Almost every type of software that’s been tried on the Epson
ActionNote 4SLC/25 has worked as it should. You may need to experiment
with the different display options for a given package - some will work fine as
standard VGA, others will have a special option for an LCD display. You can
also experiment with reversing the display mode and enabling contrast
enhancements using the VGACONF.EXE utility found on the Reference
Diskette.
Q30. How well does the ActionNote 4SLC/25 work with local area networks?
A30. Very well. Novell has certified the ActionNote 4SLC/25 as a workstation and
in-house testing has been completed for several other networking
environments as well.
