Once the adapter is connected to a wall socket, the light on the adapter would be on
immediately. In this case when the adapter is connected to the system unit, adapter starts

1.15 Power Conservation For Dual VGA Configuration
Your system supports both single and dual (two) VGA configurations; whereby depending
on configuration of the system you purchased, it can be equipped with either single VGA
card or dual VGA cards. For the sake of better expression, the paragraph below will refer
“system with single VGA card” and “system with dual VGA cards” respectively as single
VGA system and dual VGA system.
Please be aware that dual VGA system consumes more electrical power that single VGA
system. For better power conservation, when a dual VGA system is powered by the
battery pack (that is not powered by external AC power as shown in Chapter 1.14), system
would automatically switch to single VGA mode operation. Once the AC adapter is
connected to system, system would automatically resume its normal dual VGA mode
operation.
