Power System

Using AC Power

The UltraMobilePC power is comprised of two parts, the power adapter and the battery power system. The power adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the UltraMobilePC. Your Ultra-MobilePC comes with a universal AC-DC adapter. That means that you may connect the power cord to any 100V-120V as well as 220V-240V outlets without setting switches or using power converters. Different countries may require that an adapter be used to connect the provided US-standard AC power cord to a different standard. Most hotels will provide universal outlets to support different power cords as well as voltages. It is always best to ask an experienced traveler about AC outlet voltages when bringing power adapters to another country.

TIP: You can buy travel kits for the UltraMobilePC that includes power and modem adapters for almost every country.

With the AC power cord connected to the AC-DC converter, connect the AC power cord to an AC outlet (preferably with surge-protection) and then connect the DC plug to the Ultra-MobilePC. Connecting the AC-DC adapter to the AC outlet first allows you to test the AC outlet's power and the AC-DC converter itself for compatibility problems before connecting the DC power to the UltraMobilePC. The power indicator on the adapter (if available) will light if the power is within accepted ranges.

IMPORTANT! Damage may occur if you use a different adapter to power the UltraMobilePC or use the UltraMobilePC's adapter to power other electrical devices. If there is smoke, burning scent, or extreme heat coming from the AC-DC adapter, seek servicing. Seek servicing if you suspect a faulty AC-DC adapter. You may damage both your battery pack(s) and the UltraMobilePC with a faulty AC-DC adapter.

NOTE: This UltraMobilePC may come with either a two or three-prong plug depending on territory. If a three-prong plug is provided, you must use a grounded AC outlet or use a properly grounded adapter to ensure safe operation of the UltraMobilePC.

WARNING! THE POWER ADAPTER MAY BECOME WARM TO HOT WHEN IN USE. BE SURE NOT TO COVER THE ADAPTER AND KEEP IT AWAY FROM YOUR BODY.

Using Battery Power

The UltraMobilePC is designed to work with a removable battery pack. The battery pack consists of a set of battery cells housed together. A fully charged pack will provide several hours of battery life, which can be further extended by using power management features through the BIOS setup. Additional battery packs are optional and can be purchased separately through a retailer.

Installing and Removing the Battery Pack

Your UltraMobilePC may or may not have its battery pack installed. If your UltraMobilePC does not have its battery pack installed, use the following procedures to install the battery pack.

IMPORTANT! Never attempt to remove the battery pack while the UltraMobilePC is turned ON, as this may result in the loss of working data.

To install the battery pack: To remove the battery pack:

IMPORTANT! Only use battery packs and power adapters supplied with this UltraMobilePC or specifically approved by the manufacturer or retailer for use with this model or else damage may occur to the UltraMobilePC.

Battery Care

The UltraMobilePC's battery pack, like all rechargeable batteries, has a limit on the number times it can be recharged. The battery pack's useful life will depend on your environment temperature, humidity, and how your UltraMobilePC is used. It is ideal that the battery be used in a temperature range between 5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F). You must also take into account that the UltraMobilePC's internal temperature is higher than the outside temperature. Any temperatures above or below this range will shorten the life of the battery. But in any case, the battery pack's usage time will eventually decrease and a new battery pack must be purchased from an authorized dealer for this UltraMobilePC. Because batteries also have a shelf life, it is not recommended to buy extras for storing.

WARNING! For safety reasons, DO NOT throw the battery in fire, DO NOT short circuit the contacts, and DO NOT disassemble the battery. If there is any abnormal operation or damage to the battery pack caused by impact, turn OFF the UltraMobilePC and contact an authorized service center.

Powering ON the UltraMobilePC

The UltraMobilePC's power-ON message appears on the screen when you turn it ON. If necessary, you may adjust the brightness by using the hotkey. If you need to run the BIOS Setup to set or modify the system configuration, press [F2] upon bootup to enter the BIOS Setup. If you press [Tab] during the splash screen, standard boot information such as the BIOS version can be seen. Press [ESC] and you will be presented with a boot menu with selections to boot from your available drives.

NOTE: Before bootup, the display panel flashes when the power is turned ON. This is part of the UltraMobilePC's test routine and is not a problem with the display.

IMPORTANT! To protect the hard disk drive, always wait at least 5 seconds after turning OFF your UltraMobilePC before turning it back ON.

WARNING! DO NOT carry or cover a UltraMobilePC that is powered ON with any materials that will reduce air circulation such as a carrying bag.

The Power-On Self Test (POST)

When you turn ON the UltraMobilePC, it will first run through a series of software-controlled diagnostic tests called the Power-On Self Test (POST). The software that controls the POST is installed as a permanent part of the UltraMobilePC's architecture. The POST includes a record of the UltraMobilePC's hardware configuration, which is used to make a diagnostic check of the system. This record is created by using the BIOS Setup program. If the POST discovers a difference between the record and the existing hardware, it will display a message on the screen prompting you to correct the conflict by running BIOS Setup. In most cases the record should be correct when you receive the UltraMobilePC. When the test is finished, you may get a message reporting “No operating system found” if the hard disk was not preloaded with an operating system. This indicates that the hard disk is correctly detected and ready for the installation of a new operating system.

The S.M.A.R.T. (Self Monitoring and Reporting Technology) checks the hard disk drive during POST and gives a warning message if the hard disk drive requires servicing. If any critical hard disk drive warning is given during bootup, backup your data immediately and run Windows disk checking program. To run Window's disk checking program: (1) right-click any hard disk drive icon in "My Computer", (2) choose Properties, (3) click the Tools tab, (4) click Check Now, (5) select a hard disk drive, (6) select Thorough to also check for physical damages, and (7) click Start. Third party disk utilities such as Symantec's Norton Disk Doctor can also perform the same functions but with greater ease and more features.

IMPORTANT! If warnings are still given during bootup after running a software disk checking utility, you should take your UltraMobilePC in for servicing. Continued use may result in data loss.

Checking Battery Power

The battery system implements the Smart Battery standard under the Windows environment, which allows the battery to accurately report the amount of charge left in the battery. A fully-charged battery pack provides the Notebook PC a few hours of working power. But the actual figure varies depending on how you use the power saving features, your general work habits, the CPU, system memory size, and the size of the display panel.

Note: Screen captures shown here are examples only and may not reflect what you see in your system.

Right-click the battery icon

Cursor over the battery icon without power adapter.

Left-click the battery icon

Cursor over the battery icon with power adapter.

NOTE: You will be warned when battery power is low. If you continue to ignore the low battery warnings, the UltraMobilePC eventually enters suspend mode (Windows default uses STR).

Note: Screen captures shown here are examples only and may not reflect what you see in your system.

WARNING! Suspend-to-RAM (STR) does not last long when the battery power is depleted. Suspend-to-Disk (STD) is not the same as power OFF. STD requires a small amount of power and will fail if no power is available due to complete battery depletion or no power supply (e.g. removing both the power adapter and battery pack).

Charging the Battery Pack

Before you use your UltraMobilePC on the road, you will have to charge the battery pack. The battery pack begins to charge as soon as the UltraMobilePC is connected to external power using the power adapter. Fully charge the battery pack before using it for the first time. A new battery pack must completely charge before the UltraMobilePC is disconnected from external power. It takes a few hours to fully charge the battery when the UltraMobilePC is turned OFF and may take twice the time when the UltraMobilePC is turned ON. The battery charge light turns OFF when the battery pack is charged.

NOTE: The battery stops charging if the temperature is too high or the battery voltage is too high. BIOS provides a smart battery refreshing function. If the battery calibration process fails, stop charging and contact an authorized service center.

WARNING! Do not leave the battery pack discharged. The battery pack will discharge over time. If not using a battery pack, it must continued to be charged every three months to extend recovery capacity or else it may fail to charge in the future.

Power Options

The power switch turns ON and OFF the Notebook PC or putting the Notebook PC into sleep or hibernation modes. Actual behavior of the power switch can be customized in Windows Control Panel “Power Options.”

For other options, such as “Switch User, Restart, Sleep, or Shu Down,” click the arrowhead next to the lock icon.

Restarting or Rebooting

After making changes to your operating system, you may be prompted to restart the system. Some installation processes will provide a dialog box to allow restart. To restart the system manually, choose Restart.

IMPORTANT! To protect the hard drive, wait at least 5 seconds after turning OFF your UltraMobilePC before turning it back ON.

Emergency Shutdown

In case your operating system cannot properly turn OFF or restart, hold the power button

⊕ over 4 seconds.

IMPORTANT! Do not use emergency shutdown while data is being written; doing so can result in loss or destruction of your data.

Power Options

Power Management Modes

The Notebook PC has a number of automatic or adjustable power saving features that you can use to maximize battery life and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). You can control some of these features through the Power menu in the BIOS Setup. ACPI power management settings are made through the operating system. The power management features are designed to save as much electricity as possible by putting components into a low power consumption mode as often as possible but also allow full operation on demand.

Sleep and Hibernate

Power management settings can be found in the Windows > Control Panel > Power Options. In System Settings, you can define “Sleep/Hibernate” or “Shut Down” for closing the display panel or pressing the power button. “Sleep” and “Hibernate” saves power when your Notebook PC is not in use by turning OFF certain components. When you resume your work, your last status (such as a document scrolled down half way or email typed half way) will reappear as if you never left. “Shut Down” will close all applications and ask if you want to save your work if any are not saved.

Hibernate is the same as Suspend-to-Disk (STD) and stores your current data and status on the hard disk drive. By doing this, RAM does not have to be periodically refreshed and power consumption is greatly reduced but not completely eliminated because certain wake-up components like LAN needs to remain powered. “Hibernate” saves more power compared to “Sleep”. Click the Start button and the arrowhead next to the lock icon to see this option. Recover by pressing the power button. (NOTE: The power indicator will be OFF in this mode.) 

Thermal Power Control

There are three power control methods for controlling the Notebook PC's thermal state. These power control cannot be configured by the user and should be known in case the Notebook PC should enter these states. The following temperatures represent the chassis temperature (not CPU). - The fan turns ON for active cooling when the temperature reaches the safe upper limit. - The CPU decreases speed for passive cooling when the temperature exceeds the safe upper limit. - The system shut down for critical cooling when temperature exceeds the maximum safe upper limit.

Status Indicators

  

Power Indicator

The power indicator lights when the UltraMobilePC is turned ON and blinks slowly when the UltraMobilePC is in the Suspend-to-RAM (Standby) mode. This indicator is OFF when the UltraMobilePC is turned OFF or in the Suspend-to-Disk (Hibernation) mode. 

Battery Charge Indicator

For 100 BASE-TX / 1000 BASE-T speeds, your network cable must be category 5 or better (not category 3) with twisted-pair wiring. If you plan on running the interface at 100/1000Mbps, it must be connected to a 100 BASE-TX / 1000 BASE-T hub (not a BASE-T4 hub). For 10Base-T, use category 3, 4, or 5 twisted-pair wiring. 10/100 Mbps Full-Duplex is supported on this Notebook PC but requires connection to a network switching hub with “duplex” enabled. The software default is to use the fastest setting so no user-intervention is required.  1000BASE-T (or Gigabit) is only supported on selected models.

Twisted-Pair Cable

The cable used to connect the Ethernet card to a host (generally a Hub or Switch) is called a straight-through Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE). The end connectors are called RJ-45 connectors, which are not compatible with RJ-11 telephone connectors. If connecting two computers together without a hub in between a crossover LAN cable is required (Fast-Ethernet model). (Gigabit models support auto-crossover so a crossover LAN cable is optional.)   Example of the Notebook PC connected to a Network Hub or Switch for use with the built-in Ethernet controller.  Network cable with RJ-45 connectors
