This dropdown menu allows you to specify whether the unit is using AC Power or Battery Power.

Switch State To Suspend

Important: Psion Teklogix recommends setting the Suspend value to 10 min- utes. Setting ‘Switch State To Suspend’ to ‘Never’ will adversely affect the battery run time.

To further reduce power consumption, carefully consider the duration of time that the display backlight is ‘on’ (see “Display Backlight” on page 88).

When the 7530 G2 is idle – not receiving any user input (a key touch, a scan, and so on) or system activity (serial data, an activity initiated by an application, and so on), the value chosen in the Suspend Timeout dropdown menu determines when the unit will go to suspend state (appear to be off).

When the time in the Suspend Timeout field elapses without any activity, the unit enters Suspend state. In Suspend state, the 7530 G2 CPU enters a sleep state, and the radio is shut off. The state of the device (RAM contents) is preserved. Pressing [ENTER] wakes the system from suspend state. When the 7530 G2 is in suspend state, the network connection is broken immediately; you must re-establish the network connection.
