For more information on BIOS setting, please refer to RF Device Control Configuration Sub-Menu section.
Operating Information Using Light Sensor Light sensor can detect the ambient light and adjust the brightness of your tablet computer, hence improving user experience and power savings.
Managing Power Chapter3- Managing Power AC Adapter The AC adapter performs two functions: - It powers the computer from an external AC source. - It charges the computer battery. The adapter automatically detects the AC line voltage (110V or 220V) and adjusts accordingly. The following are recommended when using the AC adapter: - Use a properly grounded AC outlet. - Use one AC outlet exclusively for the computer. Having other appliances on the same line may cause interference.
Managing Power Battery The computer will automatically switch to battery when the external power source (AC adapter or optional vehicle adapter) is disconnected. Battery Power Saving Tips The computer comes with an intelligent power-saving feature. You may extend the battery life by: - Setup power saving functions in Operating System Power Management options (e.g. Windows Power Options). - Lower the intensity of the display by brightness control.
Managing Power Battery Level You may check battery status from Operating System. In Windows, you can click the power/battery icon to reveal the battery gauge window. The following is the illustration of Battery Gauge in Windows OS. An alternative way to check the battery level is by viewing the battery gauge on the battery pack. By pressing the button, indicators will be on. There are four indicators, and the more indicators are on, the more power remains in the battery.
Managing Power Note: Battery characteristic varies depending on factors such as ambient temperature, charging method, load current, aging, etc. For example, the chemicals of the battery are more inactive at low temperature, thus decreases the output power. The battery gauge should only be used as a reference. Please do not expect it to show the exact amount of the power remaining. There is no memory effect on Lithium Ion battery cells.
Managing Power Battery Recalibration Battery recalibration allows users to maintain the battery in a healthy condition. To perform battery recalibration, please follow the steps as below: 1. Update BIOS & EC to the latest version. 2. Insert the battery to the computer, and connect it to AC adapter. 3. Enter the BIOS => Choose “Advanced menu” => Choose “Battery Recalibration” => Press “Enter”. 4. When the “Start Battery Recalibration” pop-up appears, press “Yes” to continue.
Managing Power Note: Do not turn off the LCD and do not remove AC adapter during the calibration. One cycle of recalibration process indicates “Charge to Full => Start Learn Mode => Discharge => Complete Learn Mode => Charge to Full”. It will take approx. eight hours for a cycle. It requires five cycles to complete the battery recalibration. Then the recalibration will stop automatically.
Managing Power USB Fast Charging Your tablet supports USB fast charging feature, enabling to quickly charge your fast-charging compatible devices. But note, fast charging is not supported in every power mode. The following table shows details for USB Charging information: Mode Power off Power on S3 USB 3.
