Advanced Power Management and Speed
Power Management
The PC5L-II uses Microsoft's Advanced Power Management® (APM) scheme to extend
battery life. APM's functions include:
- Puts the PC5L-II's components
to sleep when not in use, awakening when needed.
- Extends usage time to as much
as 2-3 days for typical applications.
- Built-in on-demand power meter
and low battery alert.
If extended outdoor power consumption
is a vital issue (more than 3 days), consider CMT's MC5
hand-held computer which utilizes the industry's best power management
design and runs up to two weeks between recharges.
PC5-L-II Speed
No more long waits for your database search, file transfer or complex
calculation.
The 16-bit AT bus of the PC5L-II completes a 16 bit memory instruction in
only 2 CPU clock cycles.
The PC5L-II is as much as 5 times faster than other 16-bit hand-held computers.
PC5L-II
Memory and PCMCIA Support
Reliable, Flexible Data Storage
The PC5L-II comes standard with one "Flash"
EEPROM that you can use to store your program files, providing you with the maximum data
integrity available in a hand-held computer. Additional Flash EEPROM slot available on the mother board for installing an optional second Flash EEPROM.
- EEPROMs do not depend on battery
power, preventing program loss in the event of power depletion.
- Frees up available RAM for
maximum data storage.
