Monitoring Battery Power
The primary source of power for the OmniBook is its rechargeable battery pack. You
can use the ac adapter to recharge the battery—or to run on ac power to preserve
the battery. You can also install a second battery in the plug-in module bay for
increased battery time.
Running external connections is a power-intensive operation that significantly
shortens the length of a battery session. Whenever possible, connect the ac adapter
when using external connections.
In addition to the replaceable battery, there is a permanent, internal backup battery,
which recharges whenever the OmniBook is on or connected to ac. It maintains
certain internal settings, such as the clock.
