Battery
Main battery
The main power comes from rechargeable lithium batteries.
It takes around 4 hours to be fully charged in the normal condition, but
the charging time varies according to different use conditions.
Backup battery
When you remove or run out of main battery power, the backup battery
will be responsible for basic power supply.
When the backup battery power is full, you can keep the system sleep for
about 3 hours, during which you must charge or replace the main battery
as soon as possible. Under different conditions of use, the system sleep
26
time will be different.
Tip: You can view the battery level by tapping on the Start Menu ->
Settings -> Control Panel -> Power icon, or tap on this icon, in the
Taskbar to view the battery level.
Battery level
When the battery level (10%) is low, the AUTOID®product screen
displays a pop-up message box intermittently to warn you. If you see
a low battery warning message, connect to the AC power source to
charge immediately so that the AUTOID®product can work normally.
When the battery level (4%) is critically low, the AUTOID®product
will go to sleep, and you need to connect the AUTOID® product to
an AC power source to charge the battery before you normally use it.
Power management
How long the battery can last when fully charged depends on how
you use the AUTOID®product. In the case of normal use, fully
charged battery can last for more than 10 hours. The use of power
management at this time helps to save power.
Warning: The intensity of screen backlight, wireless network service
and data capture application will affect the battery working time.
