I hope someone with a 600 will give you a more definite answer because I
really don't know if it applies to your machine but here is what it means
on my T23:
1. Battery
Green: This indicator displays green when the battery is in use and the
battery has enough power. It also displays green when the ac adapter has
charged the battery completely.
Blinking green: This indicator blinks when the battery is being charged yet
still has enough power to operate. At regular intervals, the indicator light
turns off briefly.
Orange: This indicator displays orange when the battery is being charged,
but the battery power is still low.
Blinking orange: The battery needs to be charged. When the indicator starts
blinking orange, the computer beeps three times.
