Using the Stylistic 3400 Pen Tablet
• Off state
All system functions are turned off to conserve power. The system does not
respond to the pen or other input. The system boots at the next system power-on.
Note: The system consumes the same amount of power whether it is in Save-to-Disk
mode or the Off state.
Your system may be configured to enter some of these states automatically after a
period of inactivity to conserve battery power.
When you use the Stylistic 3400 pen tablet, you can change the current system state
in a number of ways, depending on which state the system is in. To determine the
current system state, observe the Power icon in the Status display. Table 2-1 gives the
different system states represented by the Power icon and describes how you can
change the system state from the current state.
