Preparing the unit for operation requires that a battery pack be charged and installed in the WORKABOUT PRO. Three levels of battery packs are available for the WORKABOUT PRO: • High-Capacity – Model No. WA3006, and • Super High-Capacity – Model No. WA3010 3.2.1 Battery Safety Important: Before attempting to install, use or charge the battery pack, it is critical that you review and follow the important safety guidelines in the quick reference guide entitled ‘WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer Regulatory & Warranty Guide’, PN 8000126. 3.2.2 Removing The Battery Pack Important: Always switch the unit off before opening the battery cover to remove the battery. When the cover is removed, a power-off switch is automatically activated and the unit power is switched off; if the battery cover is opened while the hand-held is still powered on, the unit may reboot. Any active sessions may be lost. Keep in mind also that while the battery is being replaced, the WORKABOUT PRO backup battery will save the current data for up to 5 minutes. Refer to “Installing The Battery And Switching The Unit On” on page 12. 3.2.2.1 Battery Swap Time Assuming the default power saving parameters and battery reserve level have not been altered, battery swap time is approximately 5 minutes—you will not lose data if the battery is replaced within this time frame. To protect data, the safest place to store data is on a SD/MMC memory card or externally to the device on a USB memory stick or on a PC. You can also save data in the “Flash Disk” partition of the file system. WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual 33 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Charging The Battery The Suspend Threshold adjustment in the Power Properties tab allows you to determine the battery capacity at which the hand-held will be shut down. If left at the default value, Maximum Operating Time, the unit will run until the battery is completely empty; the RAM is only backed up for a short period of time. If you choose Maximum Backup Time, the hand-held shuts off with more energy left in the battery so RAM can be backed up for a longer period of time. Refer to “Suspend Threshold” on page 100 for details about reserving battery power for data backup purposes. 3.2.3 Charging The Battery Batteries shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% of capacity. They must be fully charged prior to use. Keep in mind also that, along with the main battery, the WORKABOUT PRO is equipped with an internal, backup battery that preserves data stored on the unit while the main battery is swapped. Important: 3.2.3.1 The backup battery is trickle charged from the main battery. To maximize battery life, avoid excessive discharging and recharging of the backup battery by keeping the main battery fully charged. IF YOU ARE POWERING UP A NEW UNIT, a warning message may appear on the screen indicating that the backup battery capacity is low. To recharge the backup battery, you must fully charge the WORKABOUT PRO with the main battery installed in the unit. Chargers And Docking Stations Important: FOR DETAILED INFORMATION about chargers and docking stations, refer to “Peripheral Devices & Accessories” on page 205. Lithium Ion battery packs must be charged before use. These batteries can be charged with a variety of chargers and docking stations. These include: • AC wall adaptor (Model # PS1050-G1) – operates as an AC power source and when plugged in, also charges the battery installed in the unit. • Desktop Docking Station (Model # WA4003-G2)—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. 34 WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Switching The Hand-Held On And Off • Quad Docking Station — (Model # WA4204-G2 for WORKABOUT PRO C & Model # WA4304-G2 for WORKABOUT PRO S) can charge the battery of up to four WORKABOUT PROs inserted in the docking station. • Single Battery Charger (Model # WA3001-G1)—charges a single battery. • Quad Battery Charger (Model # WA3004-G1)—charges up to four spare High or Super-High Capacity WORKABOUT PRO battery packs. It can take up to 5 hours to charge a battery. The WORKABOUT PRO intelligent charging system protects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at maximum capacity. Note: Refer to “Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time” on page 47 for additional information about the battery. Important: To avoid damaging the battery, chargers will not begin the charge process until the battery temperature is between 0° C to 45 °C (32° F to 113° F). 3.3 Switching The Hand-Held On And Off Switching On The WORKABOUT PRO Note: Whenever the battery cover is removed, an auto-shutoff switch is activated. The battery cover must be installed before the unit can be switched on. • Press the [FN/BLUE] key and then, press and hold down the [ENTER] key for at least one second. • When the LED flashes green, release the [ENTER] button. If the unit does not power up, the power ON/OFF switch located in the battery compartment may be set to OFF. In this case, you’ll need to remove the battery cover and battery and slide the ON/OFF switch to ON. The startup screen is displayed. Note: If the WORKABOUT PRO 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.“Wakeup” on page 102 describes how you can assign other ‘wakeup’ keys. WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual 35 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO The Keyboard Switching Off The WORKABOUT PRO (Suspend) Important: Keep in mind that turning off the WORKABOUT PRO 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. To switch off the WORKABOUT PRO: • Press the [FN/BLUE] key, and then press the [ENTER] key. 3.4 The Keyboard The WORKABOUT PRO is available in two models, each with it’s own keyboard layout. The WORKABOUT PRO C model is equipped with a 52-key, alphanumeric keyboard; the WORKABOUT PRO S model is equipped with a 25-key numeric keyboard. Most of the keys on these keyboards operate much like a desktop computer. Where a key or key function is not consistent with the PC keyboard, the differences are noted. The [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and system functions. These functions are colour coded in orange and blue print above the keyboard keys. 3.4.1 Modifier Keys The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] keys are modifier keys. Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed. For example, on a WORKABOUT PRO C, 52-key keyboard, a square bracket is printed in orange print above the [4] key. Pressing the [FN/ORANGE] key followed by the [4] key displays a square bracket rather than the number 4. The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified. 36 WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Activating Modifier Keys 3.4.1.1 Activating Modifier Keys When a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the taskbar at the bottom of the hand-held screen. For example, if the [CTRL] key is pressed, ctrl key is displayed at the bottom of the unit screen. Once the next key is pressed, the modifier key becomes inactive and disappears from the taskbar. Keep in mind, however, that the ‘One Shot’ function allows you to determine how many key presses will lock a modifier key ‘on’ – one press or two. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 89 for details. 3.4.1.2 Locking Modifier Keys When a modifier key is pressed twice, it is ‘locked’ on. A ‘locked’ modifier key is displayed in uppercase letters in the taskbar. For example, pressing the [CTRL] key twice locks it on—it is displayed as CTRL KEY in the taskbar at the bottom of the computer screen. The locked modifier key will remain active until it is pressed a third time to unlock or turn it off. Once a modifier key is unlocked, the uppercase representation at the bottom of the screen is no longer displayed. 3.4.2 The Keys The [SHIFT] Key The [SHIFT] key is used to display uppercase alpha characters and provide access to the symbols above the numeric keys. The Arrow Keys The Arrow keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow: up, down, left and right. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that indicates where the next character you type will appear. The [SPACE] Key Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog box, pressing the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox. On WORKABOUT PRO S models, this key is accessed by key combination – [FN/ORANGE] [0] (zero). WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual 37 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Function Keys And Macro Keys The [BKSP/DEL] Key The [BKSP] key (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves the cursor one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke. The [DEL] key ([FN/BLUE] [BKSP]) erases the character at the cursor position. The [CTRL] And [ALT] Key The [CTRL] and [ALT] keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are application dependent. The [TAB] Key Typically, the [TAB] key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or downward. The [ESC] Key Generally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog box or activity and return to the previous one. The [SCAN] Keys All units are equipped with three yellow [SCAN] keys – one on the left side and one on the right side of the unit along with a curved, yellow scan bar just below the WORKABOUT PRO display. For units that do not have internal scanners, this key can be re-mapped to another function. 3.4.3 Function Keys And Macro Keys In addition to the standard keyboard functions, the WORKABOUT PRO supports Function keys and Macro keys. All Function and Macro keys can be custom defined for each application. 3.4.3.1 Function Keys The WORKABOUT PRO keyboard is equipped with a total of 14 function keys. Function keys [F1] to [F4] are located across the top of the keyboard next to the [TAB], [ALT], [CTRL] and [ESC] keys and are directly accessible – a key combination is not required. Ten additional function keys are colour coded in blue print on the unit body; these keys are accessed by executing a key combination, [FN/BLUE] followed by the appropriate numeric key. For example, to access function key [F7]: 38 WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Macro Keys (WORKABOUT PRO C Only) • • Press the [FN/BLUE] key followed by the [7] key – the numeric key to which function key [F7] is mapped. To access function key [F8], press [FN/BLUE] [8], and so on. 3.4.3.2 Important: Macro Keys (WORKABOUT PRO C Only) Refer to “Keyboard Macro Keys” on page 90 for details about creating macros. WORKABOUT PRO hand-helds are equipped with a series of macro keys that can be programmed to replace frequently used keystrokes, along with the function of executable keys like the [ENTER] key, the [BKSP] key, any function key and arrow key, and so on. Alphanumeric (52-keys) keyboards have three macro keys: [M1] to [M3]. These keys are colour coded in orange print above alpha keys [O], [P] and [Q]. To access a macro key: • Press the [FN/ORANGE] key followed by the appropriate alpha key from [O] to [Q]. To access macro key [M1], press [FN/ORANGE] [O]. To access macro key [M2], press [FN/ORANGE] [P], and so on. 3.4.4 52-Key Keyboard – Accessing Alpha Keys The alpha and numeric keys on WORKABOUT PRO C units are directly accessible from the keyboard – no key combination is required. 3.4.5 25-Key Keyboard – Accessing Alphanumeric Keys On 25-key WORKABOUT PROs, while numeric keys are directly accessible, all alpha characters are printed on the unit plastic in orange typeface above the numeric keys. An indicator in the left corner of the taskbar displays the currently selected character. To access an alpha character, first press the [ORANGE] key and then press the numeric key above which the alpha character you want to type is printed. Choosing A Single Alpha Character The examples below illustrate how to access, A, B and C, all of which are printed in orange characters above the numeric key [2]. Important: The letters you choose appear in the taskbar, providing a visual indicator of which letter will be displayed on the screen.

Note: To choose the second, third or fourth alpha character assigned to a numeric key, you may want to lock the [FN/ORANGE] key ‘on’. By default, the [FN/ORANGE] key is locked ‘on’ when pressed once. However, depending on how your unit is set up in the ‘One Shots’ tab, you may find that you need to press the [FN/ORANGE] key twice to lock it ‘on’. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 89for details. To choose the second letter in the sequence—in this example, the letter b: • Lock the [FN/ORANGE] key ‘on’. ‘ORG KEY is displayed in upper-case characters in the taskbar to indicate that this key is locked ‘on’. • Press numeric key [2] twice to display the letter b. To choose the third letter in the sequence—in this example, the letter c: • Lock the [FN/ORANGE] key ‘on’. • Press numeric key [2] three times to display the letter c. Note: Keep in mind that there is a timeout if you pause for one second between key presses when selecting the second, third or fourth letters on a key. For example, suppose you want to type the letter ‘c’–you’d need to press the [2] key three times. With the [FN/ORANGE] key locked ‘on’, if you press [2] twice and then pause between key presses for 1 second, the letter ‘b’ will be selected automatically. Creating Uppercase Letters To display a capital letter: • Press the [FN/ORANGE] key and then the [SHIFT] key before typing the alpha character. Note: If you want to use uppercase characters at all times, press [FN/BLUE] [SHIFT].

Figure 3.6 Taskbar The taskbar changes dynamically, and only those icons that are applicable are displayed. For example, if a radio is not installed in your WORKABOUT PRO, the radio signal icon is not displayed in the taskbar. Windows® Start Button If you are using the touchscreen, you can either tap the Windows icon at the bottom left of the screen, or press [FN/BLUE] [.] (period) to display the Start Menu, and then tap on the desired application. 44 WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Onscreen Indicators Modifier Key Indicators [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] are modifier keys that when pressed, are displayed in the taskbar to indicate that they are active. If a modifier key is locked ‘on’, it is displayed in uppercase characters. For example, if the [FN/BLUE] key is locked on, it is displayed as BLUE KEY in the taskbar. A locked modifier key remains active until it is pressed again to unlock or turn it off. If a modifier key has been pressed but is not locked on, it is displayed in the taskbar in lowercase characters – for example, blue key. It will remain active only until the next key is pressed at which point, the modifier key is turned off. Note: The locking function of the modifier keys can be set up so that pressing one of these keys once will lock the key ‘on’. They can also be set up so that they must be pressed twice to be locked ‘on’. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 89for details. Battery Gauge The battery shaped icon displayed in the taskbar provides a visual indication of the remaining battery power. The icon acts as a meter that is either full, at three-quarter level, half, quarter level or empty. When the battery level is low—approximately 15 minutes from empty—a warning window pops up. When the battery power is completely depleted, a final warning window indicates that the WORKABOUT PRO will be powered down. If the WORKABOUT PRO is using external AC power, an AC icon is displayed in the taskbar. Full 75% 50% 25% Empty AC Connection Battery Charge The battery charge icon is displayed in the taskbar when the hand-held battery is being charged. WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual 45 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time 3.7 Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time Note: When the main battery is at 50% capacity, a ‘low battery’ warning is displayed. When the battery is at approximately 10% capacity, a ‘very low main battery’ notification appears. As Lithium Ion batteries age, their capacity decreases gradually, and they are generally considered depleted after approximately 2 years of use (less than 60% of original capacity remaining). Keep in mind however that heavy usage or operating the unit at temperature extremes will shorten the battery life. Lithium Ion batteries do not require conditioning cycles and the WORKABOUT PRO battery system (including chargers) requires no user interaction to maintain peak performance. To maximize the run time of your batteries, consider the following: • The display backlight is the largest drain on the battery. Try to keep its brightness as low as possible. • The hand-held is ‘event’ driven—that is, when the unit is not in use, it reverts to sleep mode (even when it appears to be running), saving battery power. Events include a key press, touchscreen taps and scan triggers. Power consumption is reduced if you avoid unnecessary events, and allow the unit to sleep as much as possible. • The battery is a ‘smart battery’ with built-in intelligence. Tapping on the Power icon in the Control Panel displays a dialog box that provides detailed information about the battery status of the main and backup batteries installed in your unit. • When the hand-held is switched off, it goes into a low-power, suspend state but continues to draw a small amount of power from the battery. This should not be an issue unless the unit is left in suspend state for more than a week—for long-term storage, the battery should be removed from the unit. 3.7.1 Storing Batteries Long term battery storage is not recommended. If storage is necessary: • Always try to use a ‘first-in first-out’ approach to minimize storage time. • Lithium Ion batteries age much faster at elevated temperatures. Store batteries at temperatures between 0° C and 20° C. • Always charge batteries to at least 40 to 60% before storing them. Batteries can be damaged by an over-discharge phenomenon that occurs when an WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual 47 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Uploading Data In A Docking Station • • empty battery is stored for a long period of time such that the cell voltage drops below a lower limit. To minimize storage degradation, recharge stored batteries to 40 to 60% every 4 or 6 months to prevent over-discharge damage. A ‘never used’ Li-Ion battery that has been stored for 3 years may have limited or no useful life remaining once put into service. Think of batteries as perishable goods. 3.8 Uploading Data In A Docking Station Important: Review the documentation provided with the user application installed in your WORKABOUT PRO before performing data uploads. The desktop docking station and quad docking station are typically used to upload transaction data to a server computer when a radio link is not available. Note: Refer to “Desktop Docking Station” on page 216 for more details. The desktop docking station can complete batch uploads to a Client USB connected PC or server. An optional 10/100baseT Ethernet module is also available. Unlike the desktop docking station, the quad docking station supports only TCP/IP connections to a PC or server through a 10/100baseT Ethernet connection. When a WORKABOUT PRO is properly inserted in a docking station, a dock icon is displayed in the navigation bar at the top of the screen. The unit also detects the presence of the Ethernet network. 3.9 Bluetooth Radio Note: Integrated Bluetooth class II radios are standard on WORKABOUT PRO C and S units. Keep in mind also that Bluetooth is available simultaneously with WAN and 802.11g on a single unit. The WORKABOUT PRO is equipped with an on-board Bluetooth radio. This type of radio enables short range data communication between devices. The Bluetooth also provides the capability to use a Bluetooth-enabled cellular phone as a data modem, exchanging information with other Bluetooth devices and providing network access. Refer to “Bluetooth Setup” on page 109 for setup details. You can also pair your hand-set with a Bluetooth headset. 48 WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Pairing A Bluetooth Headset Or Other Bluetooth Device 3.9.1 Pairing A Bluetooth Headset Or Other Bluetooth Device Note: If the Bluetooth radio is not already enabled, tap on the Power icon in the Control Panel, tap on the Devices tab and enable the Bluetooth radio. To pair a headset: • Follow the headset manufacturer’s instructions to place the headset you want to place in pairing mode. • In the Control Panel, tap on the Bluetooth icon choose the Devices tab and Scan for devices in your area.

SD/MMC cards provide additional non-volatile memory to your hand-held. SIM cards allow access to the hand-held Voice option, access the Internet, and so on. 3.10.1 Inserting The Card • • Switch off the WORKABOUT PRO. Remove the battery cover and the battery. A hinged door at the top of the battery compartment protects the connectors. It is hinged on the left side. • Pull the hinged SD door down as the arrow icon on the door indicates. WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual 49 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO General Maintenance • Orient the SD/MMC or SIM card according to the legend stamped into the battery well plastic. • For SD/MMC cards, slide the card into the lower slot, pushing it inward until it latches into place. • For a SIM card, slide the card into the upper slot, pushing it inward until it latches into place. • Swing the hinged door back into place, and snap it shut. To remove the card: • Gently press it inward slightly until the detent unlatches, and the card is expelled from the slot. 3.11 General Maintenance 3.11.1 Caring For The Touchscreen The top of the touchscreen is a thin, flexible polyester plastic sheet with a conductive coating on the inside. The polyester can be permanently damaged by harsh chemicals and is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. Using sharp objects on the touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic, or crack the internal conductive coating. The chemicals listed below must not come into contact with the touchscreen: • sodium hydroxide, • concentrated caustic solutions, • benzyl alcohol, and • concentrated acids. If the touchscreen is used in harsh environments, consider applying a disposable screen protector (WA6110). These covers reduce the clarity of the display slightly but will dramatically extend the useful life of the touchscreen. When they become scratched and abraded, they are easily removed and replaced. 3.11.2 Cleaning The WORKABOUT PRO Important: • 50 Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild detergent to wipe the unit clean. Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit. WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer With Windows CE 5.0 User Manual Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your WORKABOUT PRO Cleaning The WORKABOUT PRO • • Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals for cleaning. The plastic case is susceptible to harsh chemicals. The plastic is partially soluble in oils, mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic slowly decomposes in strong alkaline solutions. To clean ink marks from the keypad and touchscreen, use isopropyl alcohol.

Graphic user interfaces like Windows CE 5.0 for portable devices and desktop Windows (2000, XP, etc.) utilize ‘point and click’ navigation. An equivalent keyboard shortcut is also available for every ‘point and click’ action. Windows CE 5.0 supports the same ‘point and click’ user interface and keyboard shortcuts as desktop Windows with one difference—the ‘point and click’ action is accomplished using a touchscreen rather than a mouse. Actions can be performed using any combination of keyboard shortcuts or touchscreen tapping. 4.1.1 Navigating Using A Touchscreen And Stylus Note: If the touchscreen is not registering your screen taps accurately, the touchscreen may need recalibration. Refer to “Calibrating The Touchscreen” on page 41. Each WORKABOUT PRO is equipped with a stylus—a pointing tool that looks like a pen—stored in a slot at the top of the unit. The stylus is used to select objects on the touchscreen. Note: To prevent damage to the touchscreen, use only the stylus (pen) supplied with your WORKABOUT PRO. To choose an icon, open a file, launch an applet or open a folder: • Double-tap the stylus on the appropriate icon. 4.1.2 Navigating Using The Keyboard If your WORKABOUT PRO touchscreen has been disabled, you can use the keyboard to choose icons, navigate dialog boxes, display the desktop, and so on. If your unit has already been fully configured and your application is launched at startup, you’ll have little need for keyboard navigation, but you can refer to Table 4.1 on page 56 for a description of the navigation keys.
