minimized). The third, the Emergency Battery Alert, operates at
all times.
This section describes the three battery alarms, what they mean
and how to set each one to fit your personal computing style.
The Low Battery Alarm
If MaxTime is open, it warns you when you're beginning to get
low on battery power. MaxTime beeps once and displays the Low
Battery Alarm warning. This means you have less than 20% bat-
tery capacity remaining. If you’ve changed the alarm threshold
(described in “Setting the Alarms” on page 132), this alarm means
you’ve reached the threshold level you set.
The Low Battery Alarm warning
This warning is just a reminder that the battery charge is a finite
resource that can eventually run out. Unless you've told the system
to display this message at a really low power level, you don't need
to do anything at this point.
To close the Alarm dialog box, choose OK. To change the level of
charge that sets off this warning, see “Setting the Alarms” on
page 132.
The Critical Battery Alarm
If MaxTime is open, it warns you when you're getting fairly low
on battery power. MaxTime beeps once and displays the Critical
Battery Alarm warning. This means you have less than 10% bat-
tery capacity remaining. If you’ve changed the alarm threshold
(described in “Setting the Alarms” on page 132), this alarm means
you’ve reached the threshold level you set.
Your computer's battery power is low.
You have approximately 30 minutes left
on this battery.
