Checking the Battery Level

This RTC has built-in power management unit that monitor system

activity. System activity refer to any activity involving one or more of

the following devices; keyboard, mouse, memory card, peripheral

connected to the RTC, and video memory. If no activity is detected

for a period of time (called an inactivity timeout), the RTC stops

some or all these devices in order to conserve energy.

This RTC employs a power management scheme that supports the

advanced configuration and power interface (ACPI),which allows

for maximum power conservation and maximum performance at the

same time. Windows handles all power-saving chores for your

RTC.

task tray. The Battery Status icon only appears in the task tray while

the unit is running on the battery power but not while the unit is

running off an external power source through the AC adaptor.
