Status Indicator Panel
The Status Indicator displays symbols that correspond
with a specific component of your LifeBook. These
symbols tell you how each of those components are
operating. (Figure 2-9)
POWER INDICATOR
The Power indicator symbol states whether your
system is operational. It has several different states,
each of which tells you what mode your LifeBook is
in at that time.
■ Steady On: This means that there is power to your
LifeBook and that it is ready for use.
■ Flashing: This means that your LifeBook is in
Suspend mode.
■ Steady Off: This means that your system is either in
Save-to-Disk mode, or that your LifeBook has been
turned off with the power switch.
If you are charging your battery, the Power indicator
symbol will remain on even if your LifeBook is shut off.
The Power indicator symbol will also remain on if you
have either adapter connected and are shut down from
Windows, but have not turned off the power switch.
AC ADAPTER INDICATOR
The AC Adapter indicator states whether your LifeBook
is operating from the AC adapter, the Auto/Airline
adapter or the batteries. This icon has two different
states that can tell you what power source your LifeBook
is using.
■ On: This means that either of the adapters are
currently in use.
■ Off: Power is only coming from the batteries, and
you do not have an adapter connected.
BATTERY LEVEL INDICATORS
The Battery Level indicators state whether or not the
primary Lithium ion battery is installed. In addition,
this symbol states how much charge is available within
the installed battery. The symbol will only be displayed
for a battery that is currently installed in your LifeBook.
