API Tutorial </title><shortdesc>This tutorial explains how to use the Power API of the HWRM. </shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>

<section><title>Introduction</title> <p>Power API methods can be used by constructing

an instance of <xref href="GUID-4A98138C-4C68-3399-80E8-25CB41E43D5C.dita"><apiname>CHWRMPower</apiname></xref> and calling

its functions. However, to use its full functionality write a class which

implements one or more of the observer interfaces described in the following

table. Then, construct an instance of <xref href="GUID-4A98138C-4C68-3399-80E8-25CB41E43D5C.dita"><apiname>CHWRMPower</apiname></xref> and

provide it with pointers to observers. </p> <table id="GUID-CC645CB8-B78E-5624-B669-31B5A08F77C2">

</table> <p>For example, if the application requires periodic measurements

of average battery voltage and current consumption, it must implement <xref href="GUID-4A98138C-4C68-3399-80E8-25CB41E43D5C.dita"><apiname>MHWRMBatteryPowerObserver</apiname></xref> and instantiate a <xref href="GUID-4A98138C-4C68-3399-80E8-25CB41E43D5C.dita"><apiname>CHWRMPower</apiname></xref> object using the <xref href="GUID-4A98138C-4C68-3399-80E8-25CB41E43D5C.dita"><apiname>CHWRMPower::NewL(NULL,

charging observers cannot be passed to <xref href="GUID-4A98138C-4C68-3399-80E8-25CB41E43D5C.dita"><apiname>CHWRMPower</apiname></xref> using

a <xref href="GUID-4A98138C-4C68-3399-80E8-25CB41E43D5C.dita"><apiname>NewL()</apiname></xref> function. Call the dedicated
