Section 3 BATTERY POWER & POWER MANAGEMENT3-1SECTION 3BATTERY POWER ANDPOWER MANAGEMENTIn this section, you will learn the fundamentals of powermanagement and how to achieve longer battery life.
3-2USER`S  MANUALThe Battery PackNote: Make sure thebattery is fullycharged beforeusing.Note: In the Standbysuspend mode, afully charged batteryloses its power inroughly 1/2 ~ 1 day.When kept instorage, the battery`spower will deplete in1-2 month.Note: Do not touchthe metal ends of thebattery connector.Warning:Do not exposebattery packs totemperatures below0 degree Celsius (32degree F) or above60 degree C (140F).This may adverselyaffect the batterypack.In this section, you will learn how to operate your tablet PC onbattery power, how to handle and maintain the battery pack, andlearn about Windows` power saving features.TFT display, central processor, hard disk drive are the majorhardware subsystems that consume the most power. Powermanagement deals how these key components should behave toconserve power. For example, you can have the system turn offits display after 2 minutes of inactivity to save power. Efficientpower management can help you work longer sessions beforehaving to recharge the battery.When the notebook operates on battery power, the Battery LEDindicator will be on.Lithium-Ion BatteryYour computer uses an removeable 9-cell Lithium-Ion batterypack that provides power when you don`t have access to an ACoutlet.
Section 3 BATTERY POWER & POWER MANAGEMENT3-3Installing and Removing the Battery PackTo Detach the Battery Pack:1. Position the notebook bottom-side up on a flat andsecured surface.2. Locate the battery latch. Slide the latch to its releaseposition and hold.3. While holding the latch, push out the battery’s hard caseand lift it from its recess bay.To Install the Battery Pack:1. Position the notebook bottom-side up on a flat andsecured surface.2. Carefully insert the battery pack into the recess bay untilyou hear a click indicating that the battery pack islocked into its bay.
3-4USER`S  MANUALCharging the Battery and Charging TimeNote:Be sure to reserveadequate time forcharging beforetravelling.While the battery pack is inserted in the tablet PC, plug the ACadapter into the notebook and an electrical outlet.The charging time is approximately 2-3 hours when the computeris turned off and approximately 6-7 hours when the computer isturned on.If your tablet PC is plug into an AC outlet, the battery will still betrickle-charged even when it is in operation. Charging an emptybattery pack in the trickle-charge mode will take about 6-7 hoursto attain full charge.When the battery is fully charged, the battery charge indicatorbecomes dark (off).
Section 3 BATTERY POWER & POWER MANAGEMENT3-5Checking the Battery LevelProlonging the Battery Pack’s Life and Usage CyclesNote:Read SectionProtecting YourTablet PC in thebeginning of thismanual for tipsabout how tomaintain thebattery pack.You can check the remaining battery power in the Windowsbattery status indicator, which is located at the lower right-handcorner of the task bar. The accuracy is within +/- 5-7%.Alternatively, you can access the power meter by clicking thePower Management icon in the Windows Control Panel.There are ways you can do to prolong the use of battery.nUse the AC adapter wherever AC wall outlet is available. Thiswill ensure uninterrupted computing.nPurchase additional battery pack.nStore the battery pack in room temperature. Higher tem-perature tends to deplete the battery’s power faster.nMake good use of the power management function. Hiber-nate suspend mode saves the most energy by storingcurrent system contents in a hard disk space.nEven when PC card is not operating, it still draws a smallamount of power. Eject the PC card from the card slot whennot in use.nThe life expectancy of the battery is approximately 500recharges.nSee the notices section in the beginning of the user manualon how to care for the battery pack.
3-6USER`S  MANUALUsing Windows Power OptionsNote:When runningon battery, try torefrain fromopening toomany applica-tions at once.In the Windows Power Options Properties (Start > Settings >Control Panel > Power Options) dialogue boxes, you may entertime-out values for display and hard disk drive. Windows powermanager saves power by turning off hard drive after 1 minute ofinactivities, for example. The following section will describe howto make use of the power saving feature.Power SchemesGo to [Start > Settings > Control Panel] and double-click onPower Options icon.In this dialog box, you can manually set the LCD and hard drive`stime-out values in the Plugged in column and in the Running onbatteries column. Lower time-out values will save more batterypower.Note:Also consultWindows userguide for moreinformation on howto use Windowspower manage-ment functions.
Section 3 BATTERY POWER & POWER MANAGEMENT3-7Suspend ModeStandby SuspendThe system automatically enters this mode after a period ofinactivity, which is set in the Power Schemes dialog box. InStandby mode, hardware devices, such as display panel andhard disk, are turned off to conserve energy.Hibernate SuspendIn this mode, all system data are saved in the hard disk beforepowering down. When this mode is activated, all system stateand contents are saved to the hard disk drive after a period ofinactivity defined by the user. No power is drawn from the batterymodule under this mode.However, depending on how much RAM that have been installedon your notebook, the amount of time the system requires torestore all its previous contents can range from 5 to 20 seconds.For Windows ME / 2000 users, hibernation  is handled by theoperating system; therefore, no special disk partition or disk fileis necessary.If you wish to activate Hibernate mode, you need enable Hiber-nate Support in the Hibernate tab of the Power Options manu.
3-8USER`S  MANUALPower Button ActionNote:Do not install orremove thememory modulewhen the system isin the suspendmode.The tablet PC`s power button can be set to turn off the system oractivate the suspend mode.Go to [Start > Settings > Control Panel > Power Options] andclick on the Advanced tab. In the pull-down manu, select how youwish the power button to work as.
Section 3 BATTERY POWER & POWER MANAGEMENT3-9Low Battery WarningNote:Consult Windowsuser guide formore informationon how to useWindows powermanagementfunctions.You can define when and how the system warns you of itsbattery-low condition.Go to the Alarms tab in the Power Options Properties box. If youwish to hear audible beeps, click on the Alarm Action button andput a check on Sound Alarm.
3-10USER`S  MANUALPower Manu Quick AccessIn stead of making specific selections in the Power OptionsProperties box, you can quickly and easily specify which pre-setpower saving function you desire by clicking on the Battery iconat the lower right-hand corner of the task bar.
