power button to dim the display. This is the power saver mode. Press and
hold again to light the display. Use Power Button tab to configure power
button to turn off power completely. This saves your battery power.
• When the device is connected to external power and the main battery is
fully charged, the power button light is solid green.
• When the main battery charge is low, the power button light flashes amber.
• When the battery is being charged, the power button light is solid amber.
• When the device relays a notification, the power button light rapidly
flashes green.
NOTE:
When the battery charge is critically low, the date and time settings are
retained for 168 hours. Date and time settings can be preserved for 5 minutes in
absence of any kind of power (AC adapter or main battery). When the Axim is
without power for more than 5 minutes, the date and time settings are lost.
However, data stored in flash ROM is safe.
