Resetting and Initializing the ClassPad

1 Resetting and Initializing the ClassPad

The memory of your ClassPad is divided into three parts: main memory, a storage area for storing data, and a RAM area for executing various calculations and operations. Reset and initialize restore normal ClassPad operation after some problem occurs.

RAM Reset

Perform RAM reset when the ClassPad freezes up or otherwise fails to perform as expected for some reason. A RAM reset does not affect data stored in main memory or the storage area, but it clears any data stored in the RAM area.

Memory Reset

Memory reset deletes all variable data in main memory or all eActivity data in the storage area, or both.

Memory Initialize

Initializing memory deletes all data and returns ClassPad memory to its initial factory default state.

This section explains how to perform the RAM reset operations only. The memory reset and memory initialize operations are performed using the System application. For details, see “15-3 Using the Reset Dialog Box” and “15-4 Initializing Your ClassPad”.
