Table 29. Battery (continued)
Property Description
● 11 = Partially Charged
● 12 = Learning
● 13 = Overcharged
Values such as Fully Charged (value = 3) or Partially Charged (value = 11) can be
specified. The value, 10, is not valid in the CIM Schema because in DMI it represents
that no battery is installed. In this case, this object should not be instantiated.
ChargingStatus
This property defines status information about the AC line in the notebook.
Possible values are:
● 1 = Other
● 2 = Unknown
● 3 = Off- Line
● 4 = On-Line
● 5 = On Backup Power
Chemistry
An enumeration that describes the chemistry of the Battery.
● 1 = Other
● 2 = Unknown
● 3 = Lead Acid
● 4 = Nickel Cadmium
● 5 = Nickel Metal Hydride
● 6 = Lithium-ion
● 7 = Zinc air
● 8 = Lithium Polymer
CreationClassName
Indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance.
When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all
instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
DesignCapacity
The design capacity of the battery in m Watt-hours. If this property is not
supported, enter 0.
DesignVoltage
The design voltage of the battery in mVolts. If this attribute is not supported, enter
0.
DeviceID
An address or other identifying information used to uniquely name the LogicalDevice.
ElementName
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a
user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description
information.
NOTE: The Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-
friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that
the same property can convey both identity and a user-friendly name, without
inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of
LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and
ElementName properties.
EnabledDefault
An enumerated value indicating an administrator's default or startup configuration
for the Enabled State of an element.
Possible values are:
● 2 = Enabled
● 3 = Disabled
● 5 = Not Applicable
● 6 = Enabled but Offline
