Battery Conservation Tips
About the Keypad
The CN70 comes with either a QWERTY keypad or a numeric keypad.
The CN70e comes with either a QWERTY numeric keypad, a
phone-style numeric keypad (1-2-3 digits across the top), or a
calculator-style numeric keypad (7-8-9 digits across the top). The
computer has an ambient light sensor that detects low light and turns
on the keypad backlight. By default, the keypad backlight is enabled in
low light conditions. You can disable the keypad backlight to conserve
power. Use Intermec Settings to configure the backlight. For help, see
“Use Intermec Settings on the Computer” on page 77.
