Chapter 2 Using your CL920 Using the battery 40
• Open Motion Tablet Center, tap Power, and turn off the switches beside any unused
devices that are currently enabled.
Changing the power plan
By default, the CL920 uses the Motion Optimized power plan that is designed specifically
for Motion Computing tablets. It balances the need to save power while maximizing tablet
performance. When the tablet senses no current activity, it goes into Power Saver mode
automatically.
Power Saver mode consists of the following actions:
• Dim the display after 2 minutes.
• Turn off the display after 5 minutes.
• Enter Sleep mode after 10 minutes.
If necessary, you can change the Motion Optimized power plan from Motion Tablet Center.
To change the power plan:
1. Open Motion Tablet Center.
2. Tap Power.
3. Select a power plan from the list of available plans.

OTE: Setting the power plan to Power Saver reduces the tablet’s performance.
Changing how the power button functions
When you press and release the power button, it can go into one of the following modes:
• Sleep—The tablet pauses all activity immediately and quickly resumes when awakened.
This saves power when you’re away from your tablet for a short time. However, you will
lose unsaved data if there’s a power failure.
• Hibernate—The tablet saves the contents of memory to the hard drive and shuts down.
Pressing the power button restores the desktop exactly as you left it. Hibernate
consumes about as much power as a night light and takes less time to restart than the
Shut down option.
• Shut down—Tablet shuts down. Pressing the power button reboots the tablet.
By default, the tablet goes to sleep when you press and release the power button. To wake
up your tablet, press and release the power button again. You can put the tablet in
Hibernate mode or shut it down completely from the Start menu.
You can change how the power button behaves when it is pressed either to hibernate or to
shut down the tablet. You can set the behavior individually, depending on whether the
tablet is running on battery or plugged in.
To change what happens when the power button is pressed:
1. Open Motion Tablet Center.
2. Tap Power.
