Battery Pack
The Lithium-Ion Battery
Your V1250 uses a removable Lithium-Ion battery pack that provides power
when you don’t have access to an AC outlet.
Handling Tips
• Do not touch the metal ends of the battery connector.
• Do not expose battery packs to temperatures be low 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0
degree Celsius) or above 140 degrees Fahrenheit (60 degrees Celsius). Doing
so may adversely affect the battery pack.
Charging the Battery and Charging Time
CAUTION
Before using the V1250 for the first
time, leave the unit turned off while
charging the battery fully for up to
2.5 hours. Failure to fully charge
the battery before using the V1250
may adversely impact the battery’s
overall life.
With the battery pack connected to the V1250, plug the AC adapter
into the V1250 and into an electrical outlet as shown in the Quick
Start Guide.
The battery continues to charge while you use the V1250 if the unit
is plugged into an AC outlet. When the battery is fully charged, the
battery charge indicator is off.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to reserve adequate charge time before
traveling.
ViewSonic Tablet PC V125020
Checking the Battery Level
You can check the remaining battery
power in the Windows
®
battery status
indicator located at the lower right-hand
corner of the task tray as shown on the
right.
The Battery Status icon onl y a ppear s in the t ask tray while the unit
is running on battery power but not while the unit is running off an
external power source through the AC Adapter.
You can also access the power meter by clicking the Power
Options icon in the Windows Control Panel.
Prolonging the Battery’s Life and Usage Cycles
There are ways to prolong the useful life of the battery.
•Store the battery pack at room temperature. Higher
temperatures tend to deplete battery power at a faster rate.
•Make good use of the power management function. Save To
Disk saves the most energy by storing current system contents
in a hard disk space reserved for this function.
•Disable the parallel and serial ports if no devices are attached.
•Eject any PC Card from the card slot when not in use. Even
when an inserted PC Card is not in operation, it still draws a
small amount of power.
ViewSonic Tablet PC V125021
Battery Warning
Low Battery Warning
The low battery condition occurs when the Battery Power falls to
6%. At this point, a Warning Bubble appears from the task tray
along with a short beep as a reminder.
Critical Battery Warning
The Critical Battery Warning occurs when the Battery Power falls
to 3%. At this point, a Warning Bubble appears on the Task Tray
along with a short beep.
IMPORTANT: If the V1250 warns of its Critical Battery
condition, save your current work immediately or plug in the
supplied AC Adapter.
IMPORTANT: In Standby or Suspend Mode, a fully charged
battery loses its power in roughly 72 hours. When kept in Storage
unattached to the unit, the Battery Power will deplete in about
30~60 days.
ViewSonic Tablet PC V125022

Upgrading the System Memory
Many applications will run faster when the system’s memory
capacity is increased. The V1250 provides one expansion socket
located on the back of the system. You can increase memory by
adding a Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module, commonly
known as a SODIMM. Module capacity can be 256 MB or 512
MB.
Note: Your V1250 has been tested with a wide range of memory
products on the market. However, not all memory modules are
compatible. Go to www.viewsonic.com for a list of compatible
V1250 modules.
Installing a New Memory Module
Upgrading the V1250 memory is a delicate process. Please
observe the following instructions carefully or have a qualified
technician install memory for you. Damages due to mishandling
during this procedure are NOT covered by the manufacturer’s
warranty.
Warning:
Changing memory while your computer is in suspend mode or in
power-saving mode may cause permanent damage to the V1250.
Make sure you turn off the power, unplug the AC cord, and remove
the battery before proceeding with a memory upgrade.
Do not touch a memory module’s metallic contact edge to avoid
possible damage from an electrostatic discharge.
To Install a New Module
1
Power OFF the V1250. Unplug the AC cord and all cables/devices attached
to the system. Remove the battery pack. For more information, see the
section Removing the Battery Pack.
2 Place your hand on a large metal object momentarily to discharge any static
electricity.
3 Place the V1250 face-down on a soft flat surface. CAUTION: do n ot scratch
the LCD display screen or the lid cover.
ViewSonic Tablet PC V125034
4 Locate the memory expansion slot cover on the back of the Tabl et PC shown
below. Remove the screw. Lift the memory door off the system.
Attention: Notice the notch on the extracted module. The notch’s
off-center placement allows the module to fit into the socket only
in one orientation. The replacement module will be similarly
notched to help you place it properly into its slot.
To install the new module, place it into the memory socket. The
module will only fit in one orientation. Insert the module at an
angle of approximately 30 degrees into the empty memory socket.
Then press it firmly so that the contact edge is driven fully into the
receiving socket.

Troubleshooting
An Initial
Check List
Check out
these items
first:
Check to see if the problem persists
when all the external devices are
removed.
Check to see that the green light
indicator on the AC adapter is lit.
Check to see that the power cords
are completely and firmly plugged to
the wall outlet and to the V1250.
Check to see that the V1250 power
indicator is on.
Check for any incorrect or loose
cable connections. Make sure the
latches on the connectors catch
securely at their receptacles.
If an external device such as a USB
CD-ROM drive, scanner, or printer
does not function correctly when
connected, there might be a problem
with the device. Consult the device’s
manufacturer first.
Some software issues may be
resolved by contacting the software
vendor directly.
Not all peripherals are plug-andplay. You may need to restart the
system with these devices powered
up and connected beforehand.
