Monitoring Battery Status
You can monitor the status of each battery (current charge level, whether charging or
discharging, etc.) in three ways:
1) By clicking on the Battery icon in the systray to open a desktop battery monitor
window. NOTE: The battery icon will change to a battery with plug icon when external
power is connected.
2) By selecting the
Battery Monitor Dialog in ARMORutils.
3) By generating an Event Log.
Each of these methods is described in the following paragraphs.
Using the Desktop Battery Monitor Window
Click on the Battery icon in the Windows systray to open the desktop battery monitor window,
Figure 119 shows three examples of the battery window when the X10GX is operating on
batteries alone. The example on the far left shows the battery symbol and remaining charge
when the total charge is greater than 10%. The other two examples demonstrate a low battery
condition.
Figure 120 shows two examples of the battery symbol and remaining charge when external
power is connected. The left example shows less than full charge and the right example shows
the batteries fully charged.
NOTE
You must restart the Windows desktop battery window to see any
recent changes, such as that resulting from removing a battery or
plugging in external power, or changes in the charge or discharge
level. To close the window, click outside the window on the desktop.
