Fujitsu 1200 manual Suspending System Operation

Page 21

The Power icon either flashes or is not displayed when system operation is suspended, depending on how your system is configured. At this point, programs that were running are stopped, active data is saved, and the system enters one of two different low-power states, or suspend modes, as explained in the following.

2.Observe the Power icon in the Status display to determine which suspend mode your system is using. (Note that the Battery Gauge icon is visible in the Status display.)

Power icon is blinking: Suspend-to-RAMmode

In this mode, active data is saved by maintaining power to RAM while most other system components are powered off. A fully charged battery pack can maintain data in RAM for approximately 3 days; a partially charged battery pack will maintain data in RAM for proportionately less time.

Power icon is not displayed: Suspend-to-Diskmode

In this mode, active data is stored on the hard disk drive and power usage is reduced to the same level used in the Fully Off state. You can leave the Power switch in the On position or you can turn off the Power switch when the system is in Suspend-to-Disk mode. If you turn off the Power switch, the Battery Gauge icon is not visible in the Status display. In this mode, there is no danger of losing data if battery power is lost; however, a fully charged battery pack will discharge to the critically low level after about 30 days in the Fully Off state.

Caution

Do not turn off the Power switch while the system is in Suspend-to-RAM mode. Doing so will cause your unsaved data to be lost.

If you have successfully performed this procedure, system operation is now suspended. Refer to “Resuming System Operation” later in this chapter to resume system operation. Also, note the following with regard to suspending system operation:

You can remove the battery pack while the system is in Suspend-to-RAM mode in order to install a charged battery pack. To prevent losing unsaved data, wait until system operation is suspended before you remove the battery pack.

Your system may be configured to suspend operation automatically after a period of inactivity.

Your system may be configured to enter Suspend-to-Disk mode automatically after a period of time in Suspend-to-RAM mode.
