Conserving Battery Power
3-10
The following tips can help you prolong the life
of a battery charge:
Keep the display at the lowest comfortable
brightness and contrast level. Reducing
brightness and contrast even a small
amount can significantly reduce power
consumption and increase operating time.
Enter Setup using the
Setup
button to
access the Power Management screen and
enable the power saving parameters.
You can minimize the number of times the
computer needs to access the hard disk by
using disk caches or
RAM
disks.
Disconnect or turn off external options that
you are not using.
Use only Texas Instrument options. These
options are designed to operate with the
least possible energy consumption. Third-
party options (such as
RAM
and mouse
devices) can drain the battery more quickly.
