About the Internal UPS Battery
The computer contains an internal UPS battery that is automatically
charged when you place the
computer in a powered smart dock. The
UPS battery can power the
computer for approximately 30 minutes at
-20
°C (-4 °F) or higher. The UPS battery allows you to continue using
the
computer when it is not mounted in a dock or when the vehicle
battery is being changed.
If the UPS battery becomes critically low on power, the
computer
performs a controlled shutdown. You can recharge it by placing the
CV41 into the smart dock. You can fully charge a discharged UPS
battery in approximately 4 hours.
