2.3.12Sensors

The IT-2000 has the following three types of built-in sensors:

Illumination

Attached to the upper section of this terminal and used to sense the ambient

sensor

light intensity. It is used for the Auto Backlight Control (ABC) function. It

 

cannot be controlled directly from the application.

 

(For more information about the system library refer to Chapter 6 “Keyboard

 

Controller”.)

Temperature

Attached to the inside of the main unit and used to detect the ambient

sensor

temperature. It is used for Automatic Brightness Adjustment (ABA) of the

 

liquid crystal display. It cannot be controlled directly from the application.

 

(For more information about the system library refer to Chapter 6 “Keyboard

 

Controller”.)

Battery voltage

Detects the voltage levels of the main battery, sub-batteries, and card

level sensor

battery. It is used by the system to take action against low battery voltges. The

 

system manages low voltage through this battery electric potential sensor.

 

Applications can acquire the information from this battery voltage level sensor

 

via the system library or APM BIOS.

 

(Refer to Chapter 2.2.4 “Battery Voltage Monitoring Process”.)
