Appendix A POWER AND BATTERY MANAGEMENT

Power Management

The Tablet PC provides access to a comprehensive suite of power management functions by

using the buttons and controls on the QMenu.

Configuring Your Power Management Settings

The following power-related settings can be accessed, monitored or controlled from the QMenu.

• Power schemes

• Alarms for low and critical battery

• Power meter readings for the batteries

• Advanced power settings

• Hibernation settings

Tapping the Properties button in the Power panel of the QMenu opens the Power Options

Properties window. Each of the power options is represented by a tab in this window. Tapping

one of the tabs shows the various properties for that aspect of the Tablet PC power management

feature. The following example shows the window open at the Power Schemes tab; it illustrates

the various power schemes properties that can be set for the Tablet PC.

Power Schemes. Tap the Power Schemes tab to show the Power Schemes window. You can

select from a set of pre-defined power schemes that apply to a wide variety of home and work

environments. This operation also gives you the flexibility to define your own scheme and keep

the same name or rename it to something that makes more sense to you.

Alarms. The Alarms tab shows the Alarms window. This option lets you specify the point at

which battery alarms are activated for both the low and critically low battery level states. You

also define the action that the Tablet PC should take when that battery level is reached. For

example, you may choose to have the Tablet PC sound an alarm, or you may prefer to receive a

text message.

Power Meter. The Power Meter tab shows the Power Meter window and shows a visual

indication of the Battery Status for battery #1 and #2 (if present and attached to the Tablet PC).

The icon shows the remaining battery level and the text shows the percentage remaining. You

can click on a battery icon to open a detailed information window for that battery.

Advanced. The Advanced tab shows the Advanced window where you specify the power

settings options that you want to use. You can also specify what you want the Tablet PC to do

when you press the Power switch. Your choices include everything from doing nothing, going

into standby mode, to hibernation, or to performing a shut down of your computer.
