Optimising battery operating time
When you have completely charged the battery, you can operate the Pocket PC for up to 12 hours
without a power connection. However, it is not possible to exactly specify the maximum operating
time, as different applications use more or less energy.
In the system settings you can make settings that help you save energy when using your Pocket PC.
These settings enable you to use the battery operating time optimally.
In the default setting, a setting is activated that automatically switches the Pocket PC into
i
the Suspend mode after three minutes when working without a power connection if no
entries are made during this time. You can switch on the Pocket PC again at any time by
briefly pressing the Suspend/Resume button and then continue working where you left off.
