Q21. What Real Time Clock chip does the ActionNote 4SLC/25 use?
A21. The Dallas RTC ( DS 1287 ) chip is soldered on the system board, which
includes the Lithium backup battery.
Q22. What software and documentation is included with the ActionNote
4SLC/25?
A22. Currently we are offering MS-DOS Version 5.00, MS Windows Ver 3.1, the
ActionNote User's Guide, Quick Reference Guide, Reference Diskette,
Logitech Trackman Trackball software and User's Guide.
If the unit was purchased with the optional internal modem, Winfax Lite and
Bitcom software are included.
NOTE: MS-DOS Version 6.0 will be included when available.
Q23. What about power management software?
A23. On the ActionNote Reference Diskette, under the Utils sub-directory you will
find the file VGACONF.EXE. One of the selections available in
VGACONF.EXE is the Standby Timer option. This feature sets the LCD
power shutdown time when there is no keyboard or display activity.
Whatever time is set by this option, will override any time set in the SETUP
utility.
Q24. Are there any special power saving features to help prolong battery life?
A24. Yes. One way to help prolong battery life is to select the "Advanced Chipset
Setup' in the SETUP program and enable the Power Management Function
and the other is to manually put the computer is "Suspend Mode".
The Power Management Utility in SETUP turns off the LCD and hard drive to
reduce battery drain when the system is inactive and running off the
rechargeable battery pack. The three devices you can select for the time of
inactivity timeout are 1) the Display Timeout Counter; 2) Hard Disk Timeout
Counter and 3) System Timeout Counter. This is in addition to the "display
timeout option" discussed previously with VGACONF.EXE.
