Maintenanceability

Hardware designed for easy maintenance

To avoid data loss due to sudden power failure (Battery Unit)

Available for: PL3000 Series (models with four expansion slots and AC power supply), 
　　　　　　　　 PS-3650A and 3651A (AC power supply models)
Power supply from battery unit protects data from loss due to power failure or voltage drop.

When the system detects a power failure, it is automatically suspended, hibernates or shuts down according to one of four state transition patterns. This allows no data to be lost in the event of a sudden power failure or instantaneous voltage drop.

Battery unit mounted on PS-3651A

System behavior when AC power supply is cut off in normal startup mode (PS-3650A, PS-3651A)

Note: Battery operation time may differ depending on system environment and device specifications. The system cannot hibernate when using the 1GB CF card with Windows® XP Embedded.
