Important: Selecting Maximum backup time will reserve approximately 20%
of the battery capacity for memory backup. Once the battery is
drained, the system RAM memory is lost and the unit must cold
boot.
In most real-time transaction environments this is not a problem
(it only takes a few seconds to cold boot). Batch transaction envi-
ronments, where data is not saved to a non-volatile memory (such
as an SD FLASH card), may need to pay particular attention to
this parameter. Psion Teklogix does not recommend the storage of
any valuable data in system RAM.
The WORKABOUT PRO G2 normal Windows Embedded CE 5.0
environment does not store any critical data in RAM (such as the
registry or file system).
If the user's application does not save data to RAM, Psion Tek-
logix recommends keeping the Suspend Threshold setting as low
as possible to maximize battery run time.

This tab allows you to specify whether or not your unit will enter Suspend state

TCP/IP connection.
