LifeBook E8000 Notebook
Figure 2-9. Status Indicator Panel
Status Indicator Panel
The Status Indicator displays symbols that correspond
with a specific component of your Fujitsu LifeBook
notebook. These symbols tell you how each of those
components are operating. (Figure 2-9)
POWER INDICATOR
The Power indicator symbol states whether your system
is operational. It has several different states, each of
which tells you the mode your notebook is in.
■
Steady On: This means that there is power to your
LifeBook notebook and that it is ready for use.
■
Flashing: This means that your notebook is in
Suspend mode.
■
Steady Off: This means that your notebook is either in
Save-to-Disk mode, or it has been turned off.
If you are charging your battery, the Power indicator will
remain on even if your notebook is shut off. The Power
indicator will also remain on if you have either adapter
connected and are shut down from Windows.
AC ADAPTER INDICATOR
The AC Adapter indicator shows whether your note-
book is operating from the AC adapter, Auto/Airline
adapter or battery(s). This icon has two different states
that can tell you what power source your notebook is
using.
■
On: This means that either of the adapters are
currently in use.
■
Off: Power is only coming from the batteries, and
you do not have an adapter connected.
BATTERY LEVEL INDICATORS
The two Battery Level indicators state whether or not the
primary Lithium ion battery and/or the optional second
Lithium ion battery are installed (Battery 1 refers to the
primary Lithium ion battery, while Battery 2 refers to
the Flexible Bay optional second battery). In addition,
this symbol states how much charge is available within
each installed battery. The symbol will only be displayed
for a battery that is currently installed in your LifeBook
notebook. (Figure 2-10)
