Initializing The Battery Pack; Checking The Battery Level - Getac F110 User Manual

Initializing the Battery Pack

You need to initialize a new battery pack before using it for the first time or
when the actual operating time of a battery pack is much less than expected.
Initializing is the process of fully charging, discharging, and then charging. It
can take several hours.
A software tool called "Gauge Reset" is provided for the purpose. Use the
G-Manager program and select the Battery tab to find the tool.

Checking the Battery Level

NOTE: Any battery level indication is an estimated result. The actual
operating time can be different from the estimated time, depending on
how you are using the Tablet PC.
The operating time of a fully charged battery pack depends on how you are
using the Tablet PC. When your applications often access peripherals, you
will experience a shorter operating time.
The two battery packs are discharged in parallel.
By Operating System
You can check the approximate battery level using the battery meter
function of the operating system. To read the battery level in Windows, tap
the battery icon on the taskbar.
By Gas Gauge
On the exterior side of the battery pack is a gas gauge for displaying the
estimated battery charge. When the battery pack is not installed in the
Tablet PC and you want to know the battery charge, you can press the
push-button to see the number of LEDs that light up. Each LED represents
20% charge.
