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. The Battery Gauge icon in the Status display indicates the battery charge level.

Power icon is not displayed: Save-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 Off state. When the system is in Save-to-Diskmode, 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.

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 or Save-to-Disk modes in order to install a charged battery pack. To prevent losing unsaved data, wait until system operation has 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 Save-to-Disk mode automatically after a period of time in Suspend-to-RAM mode.

The system uses a small amount of battery power when in Suspend-to-RAM mode. Eventually, the battery will become fully discharged.

Note: If you will not be using the system for an extended period of time, shut down the system rather than using Suspend-to-RAM mode.

If the battery pack charge drops to a Low-Battery Warning level while the system is running, the system will beep periodically. If this occurs, suspend system operation, shut down the system, or attach an external power source, such as the AC adapter, to the pen tablet.

If the battery charge drops to a Critically Low level while the system is running, the system is forced into a pre-selected mode (Suspend-to-RAM or Save-to-Disk). If this occurs, you must either install a charged battery pack, or connect an appropriate external power source such as the AC adapter before you can resume system operation. (If the battery charge drops to a Critically Low level while the system is in Suspend-to-RAM mode, the system stays in Suspend-to-RAM mode until power is restored or totally dissipated.)
