Operating Information
Stop Using Your Handheld Computer
In order to conserve your device battery life, you may place your device into one of the several
power states available, either temporarily or for an extended period of time. You can change the
power state of your handheld computer anytime by pressing the power button to open up the
Power Menu.
The Power Menu provides three power states for you to choose from. Each state has a certain level
of power consumption and supported functionalities. The states are discussed below.
Input Lock
In Input Lock state, the device LCD display is turned off, all tap inputs and button inputs (except the
power button) are disabled. Applications that were launched prior to entering this state will
continue to run; established wireless connectivity will be maintained (as long as the wireless
signals are not lost). All unsaved application data prior to entering this state are maintained.
By placing your handheld device into this less battery-power intensive state, you will be able to
allow applications that require wireless connectivity to continue operating without interruption. As
such, Lock state is an ideal state for your device when you want to conserve battery life without
compromising your established wireless connectivity.
Input Lock is the most power intensive of the three Off states. You can enter this state by pressing
the power button once to call up the Power Menu, then tap the “Lock” icon. To return to On state,
press the power button again.
