PRM240i Wireless Modem User Manual ____________________________________________ Care & Maintenance

Setup Tab

This tab displays the following information about the modem attached to the iPAQ:

Power Mode

There are four power modes available;

 

ON (modem only) – The modem is on and the

 

battery is exclusively used by the modem

 

Battery Sharing – The modem is on but the

 

modem battery is “shared” with the iPAQ to

 

extend the iPAQ operating time. In order to

 

share this capacity the modem periodically

 

trickle charges the iPAQ when the voltage is

 

lower than the modem battery by a certain

 

threshold. Trickle charging is inhibited when

 

the modem battery voltage falls below 3.7V.

 

Battery Extended – The modem is off

 

(actually in a very low power mode) and the

 

modem battery is exclusively used by the iPAQ

 

through the trickle charge mechanism described

 

previously.

 

OFF (No battery sharing) – The modem is off

 

(actually in a very low power mode) and access

 

to the modem battery is disabled.
