Introduction

Hello Steemit users, here I am going to tell you about basic things to remember while using electronic devices. So lets start one by one.

  • Power Button: What does the symbol represent

    This is pretty basic and everyone knows about it. So lets look into electronic devices what a power button looks like.

    Look the carefully the above image once again. It is having symbol of zero("0") and one("1"). Which is digital symbol in electronics and hence known for zero for switch off and one for switch on. And once you press Zero the device will completely shutdown and you can free to touch the device.

    • Zero: Switch Off
    • One: Switch On

        The above is the second type of symbol.The standby symbol (line partially within a broken circle). If you own a laptop you able to recognize the above image. The above symbol generally represent a sleep mode. Which when you going to press the button the device will go into sleep mode. Which leads to power saving when not using your devices. For example your laptop or desktop devices. And can be instantly be wake up by pressing the same key or if you happen to have laptop press any key it will wake up the device.

        Look the above picture carefully first. Seeing the two holes and thats it. These two holes always try to tell you the correct side of inserting the usb cable. The two holes should be always facing upward in direction. Thats the trick which you can easily remember. while inserting any usb cable in usb port.

      For now this is what I know so far. I will update this pages upto 10 things. So stay tuned.
