Getting Started with Your Tablet Client
Battery Status LEDs
Your Motion Tablet Client is equipped with a smart battery that provides
information about its power status.
CAUTION
: To avoid personal injury, or the risk of fire
or explosion if the battery is overheated, wait until the
battery cools to room temperature before recharging
or replacing it.
NOTE
: If the unit is operating on battery power, you
can move the pen over the Power/Battery icon
(shown here and found in the system tray at the
lower-right corner of the Tablet Client display) to see
the number of hours of battery life and the percentage of
battery charge remaining.
Refer to “Power Management” on page 27 for more information about your
battery and power settings.
