protective film over the LCD. This will prevent scratching the touchscreen during daily usage,
and also help enhance the durability of the touchscreen.
To apply the LCD protective film:
1) Upon delivery, the touchscreen of the mobile computer is covered with a thin
transparent film. Peel off and discard this film.
2) Wipe the touchscreen with a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth.
3) Carefully apply the LCD protective film to the touchscreen by aligning its edges with the
edges of the touchscreen. Make sure the film adheres tightly to the surface.
The mobile computer is then ready for usage.

2.4. BATTERY
The mobile computer is fed by two batteries, main battery pack and backup battery. The
main battery is removable and replaceable from battery chamber while the backup battery
is mounted on the main board inside the mobile computer.
When the mobile computer is shipped, the main battery is stored in a package separated
from the mobile computer, which keeps it in good condition for future use.
MAIN BATTERY
The main battery is a Li-ion battery pack that comes in two sizes, a standard 3.7V/3600mAh
pack and an extended 3.7V/4400mAh pack. Both types will take around 4 hours to charge
to full. The working time of the mobile computer varies by its working states. Under normal
operation, it works for at least 12 hours. An icon on Title Bar helps monitor main battery
level. See Main Battery Level.
See also Main Battery Setup for the assembly.
BACKUP BATTERY
The backup battery settles on the main board inside the mobile computer. It is a 15 mAh
rechargeable Li-ion battery. When main battery is absent or depleted, backup battery takes
over to feed the mobile computer. Without main battery, a fully charged backup battery
retains the data in the DRAM and holds the system in suspension for 30 minutes(as long as
wireless modules are inactive).
The backup battery is rechargeable by the external power (through power adapter) or main
battery pack. It takes about ˈ8 hours to charge it to full. An icon on the Title Bar makes
it observant that backup battery gets low. See also Backup Battery Level.
2.4.1. MAIN BATTERY SETUP
To secure main battery in place, the battery door is equipped with two latches, one on each
side.

2.4.2. CHARGE BATTERIES
Due to shipment, it is likely that the main battery and backup battery won’t be fully charged
when you receive the package. Before setting the mobile computer to work, charge the
main battery to full by direct charging via a power adapter (with the help of a Snap-on
Charging & Communication Cable or Charging & Communication Cradle).
Since the main battery is the only source backup battery taps power from, be sure to install
main battery for the 1st charge so both main battery and backup battery get charged.
Some key facts about charging batteries:
Charging Time
Main battery: It takes circa 4 hours to charge main battery to full (via direct charging with
power adapter). The battery charging LED above the touchscreen (the one to the right) lights red
or orange during charging (depending on the battery level at the moment), and lights green
when mobile computer is near 100% charged.
Backup battery: The backup battery is rechargeable by both main battery and power adapter.
It takes about 8 hours to charge it to full, however it does not need to be fully charged for the
mobile computer to work.
Charging Temperature
It is recommended that batteries be charged at room temperature (18°C~25°C) for optimal
performance.
Charging stops when temperature drops below 0°C or exceeds 35°C. In this case the battery
charging LED will be continuously blinking in red.
Power Consumption
When all radios (802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth, mobile data (HSPA+), GPS) are active on battery
power, main battery level drops substantially.
In order to prevent the system from shutting down due to depleted main battery, we suggest
that you keep a fully charged battery for replacement or have the mobile computer access the
radios on external power.
The following guides how to charge batteries.
DIRECT CHARGING USING SNAP-ON CABLE
Direct charging the mobile computer relies on the Snap-on Charging & Communication
Cable (hereinafter “snap-on cable”). There is a power jack on the connector of this cable to
connect external power.
Prior to charging, install main battery as described in Main Battery Setup. Then follow the
steps below:
1) Attach the snap-on cable to the mobile computer.
2) Plug the head of the power adapter cord into the power jack located on snap-on cable’s
connector.
3) Connect the power adapter to a power outlet.

2.6. TOUCH CONTROL
The mobile computer’s LCD is overlaid by a resistive touch panel and thus forms a resistive
touchscreen. Since a resistive touchscreen locates the user’s touch by the force applied on
it, by operating with the stylus one can apply minimum force to trigger actions from the
touchscreen.
Touch control is one of the main ways to interact with the mobile computer. Users are able
to manipulate icons, buttons, menu commands, the onscreen keyboard, or any onscreen
items with touch control.
2.6.1. USE TOUCHSCREEN
The mobile computer comes with a stylus. Touch-operate the mobile computer with the
stylus. Apply the gestures below to work on the touchscreen:
Tap – Touch any item on the screen such as an application icon or a setting icon to work
on them, or touch any key on the onscreen keyboard to type it.
Tap & hold – Touch an item on the screen and do not release until an action occurs.
Drag – Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without release, move the item
onscreen until you reach the target.
Flick – Quickly move your finger or stylus across the surface of the screen. Note when
the stylus contacts the screen, do not pause so you don’t drag an item instead. Flick is
helpful, for example, for scrolling up or down a list.
Double-tap – Touch quickly twice on a webpage or other screen to zoom. For example,
double-tap a section of a webpage in a web browser to zoom that section to fit the width
of the screen. Some applications such as map-info applications support picture zooming
with double-tap.
Rotate screen – On most screens, the screen rotates as the mobile computer changes
its orientations between upright and sideways.

The mobile computer is powered by Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5, a member of
Windows Embedded family branded for full compatibility with Windows Mobile 6.5.
Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 features a prettier UI and a series of fresh new looks
unseen in the predecessor Windows CE. The most important enhancement of all is those
touch-friendlier UI elements such as the inertial scrolling of lists and redesigned context
menus. These elements are offered throughout the platform and are particularly helpful for
mobile computing. Users rely only on a few basic gestures such as Tap or Flick to navigate
within the O.S.
Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 also features a Today Screen. The Start Screen on ther
other hand lays out application icons in a staggered manner to maximize the space
available to touch each icon and increase icons allowed onscreen.
This chapter goes through the basics of the O.S. and guides to Today Screen and Start
Screen where all features on the mobile computer are accessible from.

WARM BOOT (SOFT RESET)
“Warm boot” is also known as “soft reset”. When the mobile computer runs slower than
normal or when one or more active applications crash, perform warm boot to close all active
applications and restart the mobile computer without turning off power supply to hardware.
After warm boot, all flash memory, system settings and clock/calendar time are kept, and
all saved data are preserved. However unsaved data is gone after warm boot if the warm
boot is performed when the application in question is still running.
To perform “warm boot”:
Poke the reset toggle using the stylus.
COLD BOOT (HARD RESET)
“Cold boot” is also known as “hard reset”. In case one or more applications are misbehaving
and the mobile computer doesn’t cooperate, perform cold boot as the final act.
“Cold boot” restarts the mobile computer by turning power off just like pulling the battery
and then powering on again. As “Cold boot” initializes DRAM, all data cached in DRAM is
gone after cold boot. However all flash memory, system settings and clock/calendar time
are preserved.
To perform “cold boot”:
Press and hold the physical Power button and poke the reset toggle.
Note Power button should be held down and not released until the mobile computer
powers on again.
OR

4.4. CONNECT TO VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORKS
Virtual Private Networks (VPN) are a group of individual networks on a public network (such
as the Internet) that connect to each other by private lines and communicate among
themselves by encryption technology so their data are kept safe from unauthorized access.
VPN is the infrastructure commonly adopted by corporations so their users can access
corporate network resources when they are not in offices or tripping out of town.
The mobile computer supports VPN connection to access the resources inside a secured
network from the outside.
There is a variety of security protocols for VPN. Some work based on secure certificates
while others requires passwords to permit the access. To access a VPN with secure
certificates, see Install Secure Certificates.
To be able to set up a VPN connection on the mobile computer, obtain the needed
credentials from your network administrator, and note VPN is always accessed via mobile
data connection, i.e. the mobile computer’s HSPA+.

4.5. INSTALL SECURE CERTIFICATES
To connect to a VPN or Wi-Fi network that deploys secure certificates, the mobile computer
must have these certificates. Where the mobile computer stores these secure certificates is
called “certificate store”.
Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 has three “certificate stores” – the Personal,
Intermediate and Root certificate stores. A certificate store usually has numerous
certificates, possibly issued from a number of different certification authorities. To view the
certificates stored on the mobile computer, see View Secure Certificates.
4.5.1. SUPPORTED CERTIFICATE FORMATS
Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 supports installing the following certificate formats:
.PFX/.P12 – Public-Key Cryptography Standards #12 (PKCS #12): This file format
includes personal certificates with private keys. They install into the intermediate and
root certificate stores.
CER – Base64-encoded or DER-encoded X.509 certificates that install into the
intermediate and root certificate stores.
P7B - Public-Key Cryptography Standards #7 (PKCS #7) format files that install multiple
certificates to any certificate store on the device.

4.6. LOCATION DISCOVERY
Adorned with a GPS module, the mobile computer is capable of finding your location on
earth. GPS relies on the satellites covering the sky around the world to pinpoint your
whereabouts.
A location-aware application is necessary, such as CipherLab’s GPS Viewer for NMEA-based
location discovery. There are other applications downloadable from Internet. Download
“.cab”-suffixed programs that confirm the compatibility with Windows Embedded Handheld
6.5. Note always download programs from trusted sources.
As GPS is a big power consumer, close GPS application when you are not using it.
4.6.1. LAUNCH GPS
The O.S. doesn’t feature any facility to turn on/off GPS module but a GPS intermediate
driver (hereinafter “GPSID”), a software layer between GPS hardware and GPS software to
stream GPS data from hardware to software without parsing NMEA syntax and in the
meanwhile enable multiple applications to simultaneously access GPS data.
Hence the approach to turn on GPS module is to launch a GPS software or a location-aware
application on the mobile computer because the software COM port for GPS is turned on
then. In case of any difficulty launching GPS, open Start screen | Settings | System |
External GPS | Access tabbed page to check if Manage GPS automatically is selected.
