2 Batteries and Power
2.1 OVERVIEW
Battery charging, installation, and information about the single-slot dock, battery charger
and power cable are located in the Quick Reference Guide.
2.2 SUSPEND MODE
The PDA will go into suspend or sleep mode when it is idle for a configurable period of time,
by default it is configured to 3 minutes. The idle duration can be customized using the
Power control panel (refer to "Schemes Tab" on page 3^9). Suspend mode works and looks
just like you have turned the unit off. Press the < On/Off > key to suspend (put to sleep)
the PM250. Press < On/Off > key again for the PDA to resume its previous state.
Use the Battery Power control panel to set the idle duration and suspend mode initiation.
This will save battery power when PDA is not in use.
2.2.1 Suspending
The following conditions will suspend (put the PDA to sleep):
• Press the < On/Off > key while the unit is on.
• The sleep timer expires, which indicates that there has been no use for a specified
period of time.
• The battery pack is completely discharged.
2.2.2 Resuming
Use one of the following methods to resume (wake up the PDA):
• Press < On/Off > key to suspend or resume (wake up).
• Put the PDA into a dock or connect to data cable.
When a battery pack completely discharges while the unit is in suspend mode, the PDA
remains suspended until the discharged battery is changed or PDA is connected to charger.
