This information can be viewed under
START/Control Panel/Power Properties. As the
R3.1 Motherboard didn't support battery status reporting, it'll be impossible to
see any relevant information on one of the eleven (11) prototype units.
You can still view the Power Properties under Control Panel but the
battery status displayed is probably based on defaults.
Only
the Rev 4.1 and higher revision motherboards with the latest PIC code version
(battery status enabled) can report the percentages through WinCE. I'm
still in the process of testing the PIC code, but I've verified that the battery
status information passed to the Hitachi CPU is accurate and reflects the 100%
reported by WinCE. The issue is probably some code within WinCE that
decides what percentage is Good/Low/Very Low. Therefore, I've passed along
this bug report.
This
section of the code was probably never tested as there has never been any
hardware available that gave WinCE any relevant battery
status information.
Global
Vancouver has the WinCE source code and therefore should be able to investigate
the areas of code involved with this status display.
