Chapter

Using Your Motion Tablet Client
• When choosing Stand By, the Tablet Client is designed
to maintain your system for up to 30 seconds while you
swap the battery.
• However, you may have less than 30 seconds if you are
running a number of programs that drain power faster.
• You should save any data before putting the system in
Stand By to swap the battery.
4. Tap Stand By. The Tablet Client opens a dialog box
stating that it is “preparing to standby.”
5. Wait until the system shuts down. In Stand By, the Power LED
flashes.
6. Slide the battery release latches on the back of the Tablet Client
toward the center and lift the battery upward to remove it.
7. Insert the new battery until you hear the left latch click, which
ensures the new battery is correctly seated. Slide the right latch fur-
ther to the right to lock it in place. Check to make sure the latches
are fully seated.
Disposing of Used Batteries
The Tablet Client contains a Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery that should be
disposed of at a hazardous materials recycling center when it is no longer
serviceable. Do not throw it in a waste receptacle where it will be sent to a
landfill.
Helpful Hints: Battery and Power Management
• Use AC power when available to lengthen the battery’s usable life. The
battery will charge automatically as you run on AC power, so leave the
battery in the Tablet Client while you are working.
• Use AC power when installing software or writing to a CD, and for opti-
mal battery life, when using a CD or DVD player.
• When using battery power, if you leave the Tablet Client unattended,
place the system in Stand By mode.
• Keep in mind that the display, processor, PC Cards, SD cards, wireless
cards, and accessory drives all draw on the battery, so adjust properties
and disable unused accessories and PC Cards when operating on bat-
tery power.
• When using battery power, adjust the power mode and display bright-
ness to lower settings to prolong the battery life.
• Turn off all wireless devices through the Motion Dashboard when not
being used.
• Enable the Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) through Motion Dashboard.
