Yes.
In normal boot, only the graphic symbols are used; a lightning bolt,
a battery, and a yellow unhappy face. These can be reproduced using
the command:
ok show-no-power
No further explanation is given. I presume that is what you mean by
silent. I think that is sufficient.
In verbose boot, an explanation is also provided. May include words
like:
"Unsafe to update firmware now - "
"No external power"
"No battery"
"Battery low"
