5700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual

IntroductionChapter —1

If your computer shuts down because of low battery conditions, your computer does not operate. This is done to ensure that data is protected. Although the battery does protect the data against loss for several hours, you should connect your computer to a power source when you first detect a low battery condition.

Your computer contains an internal super capacitor, a temporary power storage device, that protects data for up to ten minutes. This is to give you time to replace the main battery pack before that data is lost. Be sure to put

the computer in a suspend mode before doing so.

If you have at least one device in your 700 Color Computer (radio, scanner, imager, or Ethernet), the battery power fail level is set so that after the system shuts down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient charge to allow the unit to r emain configured, keep proper time, and maintain DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least 23 to 32 hours at room temperature if the main battery remains in the mobile computer. The configuration and time are lost if:

S The battery discharges beyond this level.

S The battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode.

S A cold reset is performed on the computer.

You can modify RAM maintenance in a limited way. On the 700 Color Computer, tap Start > Settings >theSystem tab>thePower icon > the Battery tab. Drag the top slider bar to the right to change the suspend voltage to favor suspend time over rundown time, then click ok to exit.
