4. Resetting the PDA
When the AT-570 completely stops responding for your command, or an application is locked
up and does not respond, and when you want to upgrade the firmware, it may be necessary
to perform a reset.
Caution
Always attempt a Warm reset before initiating a Cold reset. Once you initiate a cold reset, all
applications are forcibly closed and working RAM and files are cleared.
It is a good idea to store important data in the resident (Flash Disk) for this reason.
Warning
Do not use force or a sharp object like paper clip to press the reset button. Use the stylus for
that purpose. Sharp object like paper clip could puncture the seal of the reset key.
4.1 Warm Reset
When you should perform the warm reset?
When you cannot turn on or off a program, or execute other programs because of
hang-the system error that stops responding. The warm reset for recovering the
AT-570 is to press R/S button on the front of AT-570. This method not guarantee that
cashed disk data will be saved, so transactional data maybe lost during the reset.
Procedure to Warm Reset. To initialize warm reset, press and hold the <Reset> key.
After Warm Reset
The splash screen will appear shortly.
The desktop appears with the application shortcuts on the screen.
The custom settings in the registry are persistent.
The RF Network PC Card if present, connects to the network system.
4.2 Hard Reset (cold reset)
When you should perform the cold reset?
If the performed reset method fails to restore system operation, it may be necessary to
perform a hard reset. This is a boot method that formats the object store to clean data and
registry information from the AT-570 system and restores them to their factory-default state.
This will erase the memory in the AT-570, including all applications and data files found in the
object store (user store).
A Hard reset is a complete reset of the PDA in which all applications are forcibly closed and
working RAM and files are cleared.
Hard Reset Procedure. To perform a Hard reset, simultaneously press the <Reset> key with
the stylus while pressing the <power> key.
After Hard Reset.
When a PDA goes through the Hard reset sequence, it clears the working RAM and initializes
the file system.
The splash screen will appear shortly.
You will be asked to recalibrate the touch screen. Press the <ESC> key to circumvent
recalibration.

Quick Reference Guide

The desktop appears with the application shortcuts on the screen.
The custom settings in the registry are persistent.
The RF Network PC Card if present, connects to the network system.
The application saved in Flash Disk will not be deleted after cold reset (refer to section 5
Flash Disk)
5. Flash Disk
In addition to the RAM-based storage standard on Windows CE .NET terminals, the AT-570 is
also equipped with a Flash Disk, and all the application and data in the Flash Disk can be
persisted in its own condition after the hard reset. From this point of view, it is a kind of very
useful method to keep important application and execute users own application
automatically after the hard reset.
5.1 Making users program replayed automatically after a hard-reset
When you need to perform a hard-reset, you maybe feel that it will be a troublesome thing to
re-execute your application every time. But if there is some function makes users
application replayed automatically without any action after the hard-reset, it must be a useful
method for users. Even a man who does not know anything about PDA but he know how to
perform a hard-reset, he can continue to use his program, if the application is to be pasted
in the HardReset folder by Flash Disk.
If you want to re-execute your program directly every time after a hard-reset, do as following

5.1.2 Re-executing a program directly after a warm-reset
Re-executing a program after a warm-reset is very alike with Re-executing a program after a
hard-reset.
1. Before everything, copy program that you want to replay automatically after a warm-reset.
2. My Device > Flash Disk > Open Start folder > Open Reset folder
3. Paste the copied program in the Reset folder.
Figure 5. Open Reset Folder Figure 6. An application to be replayed
Caution: Even it is a rare thing that your application has some problem that makes your PDA
stop operating, no matter how many times you try to perform a hard reset, it is
impossible to re-execute your PDA. In this kind of case, you should press the Fn
key. The PDA does not execute your application that you pasted in the HardReset
folder after a hard reset, if you press Fn key before the hard reset to be finished.
5.2 Restoring programs to the former place
When a PDA goes through the hard Reset sequence, it clears the working RAM and initializes
the file system, but because of Flash Disk you can make your files restored back to their
former place after the Hard Reset get performed. This method is also very useful to configure
your system without any action after the hard Reset.
To restore programs to the former place: It must be a troublesome work to make your
applications restored to the former place such as Windows, Background screen, and
Programs after performing a hard-reset every time. See the following illustration, the user
program disappears after a hard-reset, but you can make your applications restored to the
former place by using Flash Disk.

Chap 4. RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
Read this information before using your phone
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its
action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human
exposure to radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated
transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both
U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC
guidelines and these international standards. Use only the supplied or an approved antenna.
Unanthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damaged the
phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged
antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result.
Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the
head of a user for a wireless handset. The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive
testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone
emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when
in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less that the level reported to the FCC.
This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone
design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict
federal guidelines. Variations in SAR’ s do not represent a variation in safety. All phones must
meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated above,
variations in SAR values between different model phones do not mean variations in safety.
SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6W/kg averaged over 1 gram of tissue are
considered safe for use by the public.
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines. FCC ID number: VUJAT570
More information on the phone’ s SAR can be found from the following FCC website:
