2.5 Power System

2.5.1 Using AC Power

The Pegasus power is comprised of two parts, the power adapter and the battery

power system. The power adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the

DC power required by the 13.3” Rugged Notebook. Your 13.3” Rugged notebook

comes with a universal AC-DC adapter. That means that you may connect the

power cord to any 100V-120V as well as 220V-240V outlets without setting

switches or using power converters. Different countries may require that an

adapter be used to connect the provided US-standard AC power cord to a

different standard. Most hotels will provide universal outlets to support different

power cords as well as voltages. It is always best to ask an experienced traveler

about AC outlet voltages when bringing power adapters to another country.

TIP: You can buy travel kits for the 13.3” rugged notebook that includes

power and modem adapters for almost every country.

With the AC power cord connected to the AC-DC converter, connect the AC

power cord to an AC outlet (preferably with surge-protection) and then connect

the DC plug to the 13.3” Rugged Notebook. Connecting the AC-DC adapter to

the AC outlet first allows you to test the AC outlet’s power and the AC-DC

converter itself for compatibility problems before connecting the DC power to the

13.3” Rugged Notebook. The power indicator on the adapter (if available) will

light if the power is within accepted ranges.
