What is the difference between sleep mode on the robot and communicator?
i-Que can be put into sleep mode both by the switch on the underside of the robot or via a menu item on the communicator. However, these two are not the same. Putting i-Que into sleep mode using the switch on the underside of the robot will cause him to stay in a non-active standby mode. His clock and calendar should continue to work, and he can recharge if set on the docking base. But he will not be active. His head will go down and his lights will go out (except the green LED in the center of his face if he’s charging). If he is not charging he will sit there as if turned off. He will not reactivate unless you position the switch on the underside to “On”. If you put the i-Que to sleep using the communicator, i-Que stays Semi-Active. His lights will not go out, but will dim. His head might stay up. He will say random things at times, and even snore! Some of the things he says may be quite humorous as he talks in his sleep!
