Chapter 1 Getting Started with Your Tablet Client

Battery Status LEDs

Your Motion Tablet Client is equipped with a smart battery that provides information about its power status.

CAUTION: To avoid personal injury, or the risk of fire or explosion if the battery is overheated, wait until the battery cools to room temperature before recharging or replacing it.

NOTE: If the unit is operating on battery power, you can move the pen over the Power/Battery icon (shown here and found in the system tray at the lower-right corner of the Tablet Client display) to see the number of hours of battery life and the percentage of battery charge remaining.
