STORE / POWER Switch
In the STORE position, the computer and peripherals are disconnected from A/C and D/C
power. This should be the position of the switch when the unit is to be stored for more than
one day.
NOTE: Since the internal GSA Unit case batteries and battery charging system
are always connected to external power through the STORE or POWER
position, during long periods of storage the GSA Unit batteries can be
periodically “topped off” by applying power to the GSA Unit for a few hours.
In the POWER position, the GSA Unit peripherals (except the laptop) are powered by the
case. The computer needs both the POWER and CPU switches to be in the ON position to
operate. The normal operation should have the POWER and CPU switches on
(illuminated) with the NONSECURE/STU switch in the NONSECURE position.
CPU Switch
With the CPU power plug properly inserted and the CPU and POWER switches on, the GSA
Unit case provides power to the laptop computer and the light internal to the switch is
illuminated. With the CPU switch in the off position, the laptop computer operates on its
internal batteries.
