Figure 2-8 Status Indicator Panel

Status Indicator Panel

The Status Indicator panel is located in the recess just above your keyboard. Within this panel are symbols that correspond with a specific component of your LifeBook. These symbols tell you how each of those components are operating. (Figure 2-8)

POWER INDICATOR

The Power indicator symbol states whether your system is operational. It has several different states, each of which tells you what mode your LifeBook is in at that time.

Steady On: This means that there is power to your LifeBook and that it is ready for use.

Flashing: This means that your LifeBook is in Suspend mode.

Steady Off: This means that your system is either in Save-to-Disk mode, or that your LifeBook has been turned off with the power switch.

If you are charging your battery, the Power indicator symbol will remain on even if your LifeBook is shut off. The Power indicator symbol will also remain on if you have either adapter connected and are shut down from Windows, but have not turned off the power switch.

AC ADAPTER INDICATOR

The AC Adapter indicator states whether your LifeBook is operating from the AC adapter, the Auto/Airline adapter or the batteries. This icon has two different states that can tell you what power source your LifeBook is using.

On: This means that either of the adapters are currently in use.

Off: Power is only coming from the batteries, and you do not have an adapter connected.

BATTERY LEVEL INDICATORS

The two Battery Level indicators state whether or not the primary Lithium ion battery and/or the optional second Lithium ion battery are installed (Battery 1 refers to the primary Lithium ion battery, while Battery 2 refers to the Flexible Bay optional second battery). In addition, this symbol states how much charge is available within each installed battery. The symbol will only be displayed for a battery that is currently installed in your LifeBook. (Figure 2-9)
