+ Charge the battery Before using, first charge the battery for 8 hours in order to preserve battery life. Read section 3 Battery for further explanation about use of the battery.
+ Format NAND Flash After the battery is installed and the terminal is on, the question Format NAND Flash? will appear on the screen. This terminal has already been formatted by the manufacturer, and the NAND Flash may already contain software from the system integrator. So, press any key except the down directional arrow to cancel formatting. Otherwise, all data in the NAND Flash will be erased.
**If nothing appears on the screen after turning on the terminal, reset the unit using the tool on the end of the stylus.
* Touch screen initialization Next, a + symbol appears in the upper left corner of the display. Use the stylus to tap the center of the + character. Then, the +

3. Battery The battery is a precision electronic product. Please use In the proper manner to extend its life and preserve the continuity of data stored in the terminal. When shipped from the factory, the battery contains a minimal amount of power. Before using for the first time, charge the battery for a minimum of 8 hours, An icon on the terminal's desktop displays the amount of remaining battery power. When the battery is almost completely drained, the system will display a message that power is nearly depleted. If the battery cannot be recharged before completely losing all power, data stored in the terminal could be lost. In order to protect data on the terminal, try to charge the unit as soon as seeing the low power warning. As the battery used is a Lithium ion type, it can also be charged when power is moderately low without harming the battery. The battery chargers status can be determined by its LEDs. Red: charging in progress Green: charging complete Note: Please the specialized charger for this terminal t i damage to the unit. The charger is connected as shown here:
Communications cable Battery charging cable 4. Use and care of the touch panel In order to maintain the quality and functioning of the terminal's touch screen, please carefully read the following:
+ Do not place any objects on the screen.
+ Use only the provided stylus with this screen. Do not use your finger or any other pointed objects.
+ Wipe the screen with a smooth, clean, anti-static cloth. Mild household cleaner or water can also be used if needed. Do not use alcohol or other industrial strength cleaning fluids. Note: Do not pour water directly onto the screen. Cleaning should be done only with a damp cloth, in order to avoid damaging the terminal. 5. Care of the terminal When using the terminal, take note of the following:
+ The terminal is a precision electronic device. Avoid exposing the terminal to the following conditions:
1. Electrostatic environments 2. Extremely hot or cold temperatures 3. Overly humid environments 4. Quickly changing temperatures 5. Extremely dusty environments
+ Do not disassemble the terminal in order to avoid damaging the device.
+ Avoid pouring any liquids on the terminal. 6. System reset In the event an application hangs or there is no response from the system, the system reset function can return the terminal to normal operating state. This terminal features two types of reset:
+ Warm reset Unscrew the reset tool found on the end of the Stylus and press the reset button found on the back of the terminal. This action will not delete any data stored within the device.
* Cold reset When doing a cold reset, all data stored in the RAM will be deleted, and the terminal will be restored to its original state when delivered from the manufacturer. Also, data stored in the NAND Flash will ask whether formatting is necessary. Thus it is best to avoid the cold reset if possible. It is recommended to save a copy of all data before performing the reset, as well as to backup data regularly. The reset Is done as follows:
1. Press and hold the down arrow key. 2. Using the tool from the stylus, Press and release the reset button on the back of the terminal. 3. Wait for a message to appear on the display before releasing the down arrow key. 4, As Instructed, press the right arrow key to begin the cold reset. Or press the left arrow key to cancel the operation and instead do a warm reset. 5. Begin to format NAND Flash as indicated (or choose to not format NAND Flash if not necessary). 6. Then, follow the steps for initializing the touch screen. After performing the above steps, the cold reset is complete and the terminal is returned to its original factory-direct state. 80m 7.
