RE: R6 Power status

["Tyler Lincks" <tyler@gesn.com>]

No, it all pretty much makes sense to me now.  I am assuming that a power
status of "low" or "critical" only appears if the unit is running off
battery power (or unless...there's a comeback editorial comment hanging out
there, but I can't say it without making someone angry).

You'd think so.  I am assuming you are going to get to the part where you
tell us its not eventually, right?

There is an internal sensor that determines whether Steve Knecht is in the
room, and that status is displayed in this case.

You are right.  That state doesn't make sense to me either, and if it does,
the cases where it can happen should be documented.
