LED Status Indicators
There are several LED status indicators on the Notebook PC. The LED status indicators give informa-
tion on the Notebook PC’s current operating and keyboard statuses. The following illustration shows
the meaning of each status LED.
The following gives a description for each of the LED status indicators.
Capital Lock
Indicates that capital lock [Caps Lock] is activated when lighted. Capital lock allows some of the
keyboard letters to type using capitalized letters (e.g. A, B, C). When the capital lock light is OFF, the
typed letters will be in the lower case form (e.g. a,b,c).
Number Lock
Indicates that number lock [Num Lk] is activated when lit. Number lock allows some of the keyboard
letters to act as numbers for easier numeric data input.
Charge Indicator
Indicates that the battery is being charged when ON and fully charged when OFF. This LED only lights
when the power adapter is used. This LED will not light if there is no battery installed. Slow flash
means the battery power is low and require charging. Quick flashing means that the battery pack cannot
be charged and needs replacing.
Activity Indicator
Indicates that the Notebook PC is accessing the floppy, hard disk, CD/DVD-ROM drive. The light
flashes proportional to the access time.
Power Indicator
The green LED will light when the power is ON and blink when in suspend-to-RAM mode. This LED
will be OFF when in suspend-to-disk mode.
