Setup Tab
This tab displays the following information about the modem attached
to the iPAQ:
Power Mode
There are four power modes available;
ON (modem only)
– The modem is on and the
battery is exclusively used by the modem
Battery Sharing
– The modem is on but the
modem battery is “shared” with the iPAQ to
extend the iPAQ operating time. In order to
share this capacity the modem periodically
trickle charges the iPAQ when the voltage is
lower than the modem battery by a certain
threshold. Trickle charging is inhibited when
the modem battery voltage falls below 3.7V.
Battery Extended
– The modem is off
(actually in a very low power mode) and the
modem battery is exclusively used by the iPAQ
through the trickle charge mechanism described
previously.
OFF (No battery sharing)
– The modem is off
(actually in a very low power mode) and access
to the modem battery is disabled.
