Main Battery
Radio Power Off
Threshold
Battery value at which radio is powered off irrevocably to conserve
backup battery. May be implemented as minimum voltage level,
maximum voltage drop, voltage factored by battery temperature, or
combination.  Unfortunately, no amperage value is available.
30 minutes
Application
activity period
How long WANPOWER holds PEN*KEY HHC up in anticipation of
application activity for radio
1 minute
WANPOWER
interval
How often WANPOWER wakes up to check battery or maintain radio,
or both.
10 seconds
DOS Programs
The DOS TSR provides the functionality for WANPOWER.  It hooks INT 2Fh for
APM events, causes the clock to reawaken itself, and uses the INT 15h PropriĆ
etary Interface to check battery status.
The TSR determines the type of radio, if possible, and sets the appropriate deĆ
faults.  The user may override these defaults via the command line or through
the DOS API.
The TSR supports the DOS API through an extended INT 2F interface.
The TSR removes itself from memory when Windows is invoked and reinserts
itself when Windows terminates.
