DC Power Inputs
External DC power can be connected at three locations on the pen tablet:
• DC power connector on the pen tablet
• system interface connector
• DC input positions of the high-usage contacts
A DC power source connected to any of these inputs must provide 2.7 amps at a continuous DC voltage
of 16 volts ±10%. Specifications for the DC input connectors on the pen tablet and port replicator are
given below.

Power Management
System behavior that affects power management is described in this section. Your system can be
configured a number of different ways resulting in higher or lower power savings. More conservative
power savings settings are recommended to maximize battery life and decrease internal temperatures of
the pen tablet.
The Stylistic 2300 pen tablet BIOS and system hardware are compliant with the following power
specifications:
• Advanced Power Management (APM) BIOS Interface Specification Revision 1.2
• Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) Specification Revision 1.0
Note:
This section describes power management features as they are controlled and configured primarily by the
BIOS and BIOS settings. The APM and ACPI specifications allow for additional control over power
management features such as state transitions and device timeouts. Refer to the APM and ACPI
specifications and the documentation for your operating system regarding power management for details
on APM and ACPI features.
