Make room for air circulation. Avoid areas with: • Sudden or extreme changes in temperature. • Extreme heat. • Strong electromagnetic fields (near television set, motor rotation area, etc.). • Dust or high humidity. If it is necessary to work in a hostile environment, please regularly maintain your computer by cleaning dust, water, etc. to keep it in optimal condition. Ruggedness The computer is designed with rugged features such as vibration, shock, dust, and rain/water protection. However, it is still necessary to provide appropriate protection while operating in harsh environments. The computer is designed to withstand rainfall from top with mild wind blowing only. Please keep the keyboard facing up, i.e., normal operating direction, to maintain water resistance. NEVER immerse the unit in water, or spray water at an upside-down system. Doing so may cause permanent damage. The D-sub connector caps on the rear of the computer are for dust and shock protection. The connectors are sealed internally. Other I/O ports and devices on the left or right must have caps tightly closed or cable inlets sealed while exposed to water or dust. There are optional gaskets for DB-9 and DB-25 connectors. You may install them to improve rain/dust/moisture resistance on your commercial type cable. Insert the packing into the male connector (with pins) and fasten the screws. All connectors will be corroded if exposed to water or moisture. Corrosion is accelerated if the system’s power is ON. Please take proper water-resistant measures for cable connections. The DC jack and cables are sealed and may be operated with water splashing while attached. All port covers should be in place when no cable is attached. Operating Systems Useful Information The computer is compatible with most operating systems (OS). However, not all functions are 100% compatible. For example, ACPI, APM, Smart Battery, etc. are not available on DOS, Windows NT, and other non-Microsoft OS. Consequently “Standby”, “Hibernation”, “Battery Gauge” etc. would not work under such operating systems. ACPI: Advanced Configurations and Power Interface APM: Advanced Power Management For power consumption and heat dissipation consideration, ACPI OS (Windows 2000, XP, etc.) are highly recommended especially Windows XP or newer Set Power Options as ”Portable/Laptop” in Control Panel to fully implement the power management features AC Adapter The AC adapter performs two functions: • It powers the computer from an external AC source. • It charges the computer battery. The adapter automatically detects the AC line voltage (110V or 220V) and adjusts accordingly. The following are recommended when using the AC adapter: • Use a properly grounded AC outlet. • Use one AC outlet exclusively for the computer. Having other appliances on the same line may cause interference. • Use a power strip with built-in surge protection. Connect the AC adapter: 1. Plug the AC cord to the adapter. 2. Plug the other end of the AC cord into the wall outlet. Make sure the green LED on the adapter turns on. 3. Attach the DC plug into the power jack of the computer; turn the lock ring clockwise to secure it. AC Adapter Indicator Useful Information The green LED indicates that the AC power is ready.

You may extend the battery life by: • Setup power saving functions in Operating System Power Management options (e.g. Windows 2000/XP Power Options). • Lower the intensity of the display by brightness control. • Use standby option when computer is temporarily not in use. • Shut down the computer when it will not be in use for long periods of time. Battery Low When the battery is nearly exhausted, the computer gives the following “Battery Low” warnings: • Windows 2000/XP battery low warning (when operating system is Windows) • The power LED flashes. Once the Battery Low warning occurs, please: 1. Save and close the files you are currently working on. 2. Plug in the AC adapter to recharge the battery. Battery Gauge In Windows 2000/XP, etc. you may check battery status information from battery gauge. Click the power/battery icon to reveal the battery gauge window. Useful Information Note: Battery characteristic varies depending on factors such as ambient temperature, charging method, load current, aging, etc. For example, at low temperature the chemicals of the battery are more inactive, thus decreases the output power. The battery gauge should only be used as a reference. Please do not expect it to show the exact amount of the power remaining. There is no memory effect on Lithium Ion battery cells. However, discharge the battery to nearly empty every month will help calibrate the internal gauge. Charging the Battery Plug in the AC adapter (or optional vehicle adapter) to start the battery charging. If the battery is already full, the sense circuitry will stop high current charge within several minutes. There are two LED indicators next to the power indicator for the Primary and Secondary battery respectively. Indicator turns ON when the battery is charging and turns OFF when the battery charge is completed. To charge the Secondary Battery, simply install it into the computer and attach the AC adapter. The internal charger will charge the Primary and Secondary batteries simultaneously. Optional Dual Battery Charger can charge Primary and Secondary batteries externally. Boot Up and POST The computer turns ON and loads the operating system (such as Windows) into the system memory. This start-up procedure is called “boot up”. 10 Useful Information The ROM BIOS Power On Self-Test (POST) Each time the computer powers on, it automatically performs a self-test of its memory and hardware devices. Standby/Hibernate/Resume The system can enter standby or hibernate mode by either pressing the power switch or staying idle till timeout. Note: Standby/Hibernate/Resume works with both AC adapter and battery. The power management functions may not work under Windows NT or non-Windows operating systems.
