Chapter 6. Operating the tablet
Starting the tablet
Do as follows:
1. Check the ac power connection of the access point and tablet.
Note: The battery in the tablet may not be charged the first time, and you
may need to power your tablet using ac power. If the battery in
your tablet is charged, you may operate the tablet on battery power.
2. Turn on the tablet.
When the self-test is complete, the IBM logo startup window closes.
3. The home screen is shown if your tablet has preinstalled software.
For detailed information on how to use the software, refer to its online help.
If you experience any problems during startup, refer to Chapter 7, “Solving
problems” on page 15, and Chapter 8, “Getting information, help, and service”
on page 19
Since the tablet is pre-configured as listed below, you may need to change

Chapter 7. Solving problems
Troubleshooting
The following section helps you solve problems you might encounter while
using the tablet.
Errors without messages
Problem: When I turn on the tablet, nothing appears on the screen and the
tablet does not beep while starting up.
Note: If you are unsure whether or not you heard any beeps, turn off the
tablet; then turn it on again, and listen again.
Solution: If a power-on password is set, press any key to display the
power-on password prompt. Then type the correct password and press Enter.
A password problem
Problem: I forgot my password.
Solution: If you forget your power-on password, you have to take your tablet
to an IBM reseller or marketing representative to have the password canceled.
A power switch problem
Problem: The system does not respond, and you cannot turn off the tablet
Solution: Turn off the tablet by pressing and holding the power switch for 4
seconds or more. If the tablet is still not reset, remove the ac adapter and the
battery.
Wireless connection problems
Problem: Wireless LAN status indication light does not turn on.
Solution: Check the power connection and the power status of your access
point. If these are okay, try using your tablet closer to the access point and
restart your tablet.
Problem: ″Internet connection is not available″ message appears during tablet
operation.
Solution: Check the power connection and the power status of your access
point. If these are okay, try using your tablet closer to the access point and
restart your tablet.
© Copyright IBM Corp. 2001
15
If this does not solve the problem, check the ″Wireless network″ settings of
your tablet system settings screen. The ESSID, Channel, and WEP key must
match the settings on the access point. For setting details, see your system
administrator.
If you do not know or are unable to get the access point settings, you may
use the ″Searching access point″ function in the tablet settings utility. For more
information, see its online help.
Problem: The brower or e-mail utility does not work.
Solution: Check the ″Browser″ or ″E-mail″ settings of your tablet system
settings screen. For detailed information regarding these settings, please
contact your system administrator.
Standby problems
Problem: The tablet enters standby mode immediately after Power-On Selftest
(POST) (the power/battery status indication light turns orange).
Solution: Make sure that:
v The battery is charged.
v The operating temperature is within the acceptable range. Refer to
Appendix A, “Specifications” on page 23 in this Guide.
If these items are correct, have the tablet serviced.
Problem: Power/battery status indication light flashes in orange, and the
tablet immediately turns off.
Solution: The battery power is getting critical low. Connect the ac adapter to
the tablet, or replace the battery with a fully charged one.
Problem: The tablet does not return from standby mode.
Solution: The tablet automatically enters standby mode when the battery is
depleted. Connect the ac adapter to the tablet.
Tablet screen problems
Problem: The screen stays on even after you turn off your tablet.
Solution: Press and hold the power switch for 4 seconds or more to turn off
your tablet; then turn it on again.
Problem: Missing, discolored, or bright dots appear on the screen every time
you turn on your tablet.
16
NetVista W50 Wireless Internet Appliance (Type 8368) Getting Started
Solution: This is an intrinsic characteristic of the TFT technology. Your tablet’s
display contains multiple thin-film transistors (TFTs). A small number of
missing, discolored, or bright dots on the screen might exist all the time.
Battery problems
Problem: The battery cannot be fully charged by the power-off method in the
standard charge time for your tablet.
Solution: The battery might be over-discharged. Do the following:
1. Turn off the tablet.
2. Make sure that the over-discharged battery is in the tablet.
3. Connect the ac adapter to the tablet and let it charge, or charge it using
the cradle.
If the battery cannot be fully charged in 24 hours, use a new battery.
Problem: The operating time for a fully charged battery is short.
Solution: Discharge and recharge the battery. If your battery’s operating time
is still short, use a new battery.
Problem: The tablet does not operate with a fully charged battery.
Solution: The surge protector in the battery might be active. Turn off the
tablet for one minute to reset the protector; then turn on the tablet again.
Problem: The battery does not charge.
Solution: You cannot charge the battery when it is too hot. If the battery feels
hot, remove it from the tablet and allow it to cool to room temperature. After
it cools, reinstall it and recharge the battery. If it still cannot be charged, have
it serviced.
Other problems
Problem: The tablet does not turn off with the power switch.
Solution: Turn off the tablet by pressing and holding the power switch for 4
seconds or more. If the tablet is still not reset, remove the ac adapter and the
battery.
Starting the BIOS Setup Utility
Your tablet provides a program, called IBM BIOS Setup Utility, that enables
you to select various setup parameters. The panels in this utility are as
follows:
v Date Setting: Set the date.

Processing date data
This IBM hardware product and IBM software products that might be
packaged with it have been designed, when used in accordance with their
associated documentation, to process date data correctly within and between
the 20th and 21st centuries, provided all other products (for example,
software, hardware, and firmware) used with these products properly
exchange accurate date data with them.
IBM cannot take responsibility for the date data processing capabilities of
non-IBM products, even if those products are preinstalled or otherwise
distributed by IBM. You should contact the vendors responsible for those
products directly to determine the capabilities of their products and update
them if needed. This IBM hardware product cannot prevent errors that might
occur if software, upgrades, or peripheral devices you use or exchange data
with do not process date data correctly. The foregoing is a Year 2000
Readiness Disclosure.
