SUSPENDING SYSTEM OPERATION
The Tablet PC allows you to suspend the
system operation without closing programs or
exiting the operating system. Use this feature
to conserve battery power when a system
shutdown is not practical or when the battery
needs to be changed.
To suspend system operation:
1. Press the Suspend/Resume button, or carry
out the Standby command from your
operating system or power management
program. (If your system is configured to
suspend operation using Hibernate (Save-
to-Disk) mode, which is explained later in
this procedure, a message is displayed while
data is saved to your hard disk.)
2. The Power icon either flashes (Suspend-to-
RAM) or is not displayed (Hibernate) when
system operation is suspended, depending
on how your system is configured. At this
point, programs that were running are
stopped, active data is saved, and the
system enters one of the two different low-
power states, or suspend modes, as
explained in the following paragraphs.
3. Observe the Power icon in the Status display
to determine which suspend mode your
system is using.
• Power icon is blinking: Suspend-to-RAM
mode.
In this mode, active data is saved by
maintaining power to RAM while most other
system components are powered off. The
Battery Gauge icon in the Status display
indicates the battery charge level.
• Power icon is not displayed: Hibernate
(Save-to-Disk) mode.
In this mode, active data is stored on the
hard disk drive and power usage is reduced
to the same level used in the Off state. When
the system is in Hibernate mode, the Battery
Gauge icon is not visible in the Status
display. In this mode, there is no danger of
losing data if battery power is lost.
If you have successfully performed this
procedure, system operation is now
suspended. Refer to “Resuming System
Operation” later in this chapter to resume
system operation. Also, note the following
with regard to suspending system operation:
If you are replacing the battery, wait until
system operation is suspended and the
power icon is flashing before you remove
the battery. Failure to do so could result in
loss of your unsaved data. (Note that if the
Resume On LAN function is enabled in the
BIOS setup, you should not remove the
battery unless the system is shut down.
When Resume ON LAN is enabled, the
bridge battery is disabled in order to
optimize battery life.)
If you have set your system to turn
power off from the Power Options utility
in the Control Panel, the following
procedure will not be possible, since
pressing the button shuts the system
down rather than suspending it. To
change your power options, go to Start
-> Settings -> Control Panel -> Power
Options.
