If your computer shuts down because of low battery conditions, your com-
puter will not operate. This is done to ensure that data is protected. Al-
though the battery will protect the data against loss for several hours, you
should connect your computer to a power source when you first detect a
low battery condition.
Your computer contains an internal super capacitor, a temporary power
storage device, that protects data for about one minute. This is to give you
time to replace the main battery pack before that data is lost. Be sure to put
the computer in a suspend mode before doing so.
If you have at least one device in your 700 Series Computer (radio, scan-
ner, imager, Ethernet), the battery power fail level is set so that after the
system shuts down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient charge
to allow the unit to remain configured, keep proper time, and maintain
DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least four hours at
room temperature if the main battery remains in the mobile computer.
The configuration and time are lost if:
S The battery discharges beyond this level.
S The battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode.
S A cold reset is performed on the computer.
