Chapter 3: Getting To Know NEO

Switching The Hand-Held On And Off

Cigarette Lighter Adaptor (Model No. PX3056) when used with a USB/DC Power Adaptor (Model No. PX3054).

Desktop Docking Station (Model # PX3001)—operates as both a charger and a docking station. Operating as a charger, both the battery installed in the hand-held and a spare battery can be charged simultaneously.

Quad Docking Station—(Model # PX3004) can charge the battery of up to four NEOs inserted in the docking station.

The charge time required to make the NEO ready for use varies depending on the type of docking station used. A NEO inserted in docking station requires 3 hours to charge the battery to 75% capacity. NEO is equipped with an intelligent charging system that protects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at maximum capacity.

Note: The specified battery charge times are based on NEO in suspend mode. Additional peripherals and other power consumption features will alter the specified charge time.

Note: Refer to “Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time” on page 40 for addi- tional information about the battery.

Important: To avoid damaging the battery, the charge process will not begin until the battery temperature is between 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F).

3.3Switching The Hand-Held On And Off

To switch the unit on, press and hold down the [ENTER] key for at least one second.

When the LED flashes green, release the [ENTER] key.

The startup screen is displayed.

Note: If NEO is in suspend state, pressing [ENTER] ‘wakes’ the unit from this state. The screen in which you were working before the computer entered suspend state is displayed.

Switching Off NEO (Suspend)

Important: Keep in mind that turning off NEO does not result in a complete reboot; rather, the unit enters a power-saving, “suspend” state. When the unit is turned on from suspend state, operation resumes within a few seconds.
