Resetting your Handheld PC

Occasionally, you may need to reset your Handheld PC to correct software errors of other problems. Performing a simple reset closes all programs that are running and restarts Windows CE. In case the problems are not solved after a simple reset, it is recommended that you perform a manual reset (Press the Power On/Off button, followed by pressing the Reset button about one second and then releasing it, followed by releasing the Power On/Off button.). In case the problems are not solved a manual reset, we recommend that you perform a full reset. Performing a full reset erases all stored data in your Handheld PC and returns the Handheld PC's memory to the state it was when you purchased it.

To perform a simple reset:

Push the Reset button on the boffom side of your Handheld PC with the stylus pen.

To perform a full reset

1 Remove the main battery. Disconnect the AC adapter.

2 Push the Backup off Switch with the stylus pen.

3 Wait more than 30 seconds.

4 Reinstall the battery as described previously in this chapter.
