TIPS FOR CONSERVING BATTERY POWER

You can extend the charge life of your battery by
conserving battery power. (Your results may vary
depending on your application and how the system is
configured.) Here are some suggestions to help you
conserve battery power:
• Use an external power source such as the AC adapter
whenever the system is docked.
• Suspend system operation if you know that you won't
be using the system for a while.
• Shut down the system if you won't be using the system
for an extended period of time.
• Use power management (available on the desktop) to
help you conserve power automatically.
• Battery life is dependent upon the operating system,
power settings, and applications in use.
Operation of the Bridge Battery
When installed in the Tablet PC, the battery provides
power to some system components—even when the
system is in the Off state. When the battery is removed,
power is supplied to these components by a "bridge"
battery that is built into the Tablet PC.
The bridge battery is not designed for long-term opera-
tion. To maintain the bridge battery properly, observe the
following measures:
P O I N T
• The bridge battery function is disabled if Wake On
LAN is enabled in the BIOS.
• The system arrives with the bridge battery in a
discharged state. Be sure to charge it sufficiently
before relying upon it to support the system in the
event of battery removal.
• To prevent draining the bridge battery, always store
the system with a charged battery installed.
• If the bridge battery becomes drained, it takes
approximately 8 hours for it to be fully recharged.
• The bridge battery charges when the AC Adapter is
connected and the system is in On or Off states or
Suspend mode. It charges from the battery only when
the system is in the On state.

MODEM CONNECTION

P O I N T
The internal 56 Kbps LAN/modem module installed in
the Stylistic ST4000 Series Tablet PC has actual
maximum transfer rates of 53 Kbps (receive), 33.6 Kbps
(send), and 14.4 Kbps (fax). Download rates are limited
to 53 Kbps in the United States due to FCC restrictions.
The Stylistic ST4000 Series Tablet PC is designed to
accept a standard RJ-11 telephone plug. Connect the plug
to the modem jack located on the left-hand side of the
Tablet PC (See Figure 1-4 on page 5 for location). The tele-
phone plug can be installed whether or not the Tablet PC
has power applied.
If you need assistance configuring the Stylistic ST4000
Series Tablet PC modem or LAN, contact your local help
desk or reseller.

The Stylistic ST4000 Series Tablet PC Card slot allows you

the arrow on the card should be visible.) Slide the card
