Restriction On Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive 2002/95/EC
What is RoHS?
The European Union has mandated that high environmental stan-
dards be met in the design and manufacture of electronic and electri-
cal products sold in Europe, to reduce hazardous substances from
entering the environment. The “Restriction on Hazardous Sub-
stances Directive (RoHS)” prescribes the maximum trace levels of
lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardants
PBB and PBDE that may be contained in a product. Only products
meeting these high environmental standards may be “placed on the
market” in EU member states after July 1, 2006.
RoHS Logo
Although there is no legal requirement to mark RoHS-compliant
products, Psion Teklogix Inc. indicates its compliance with the
directive as follows:
The RoHS logo located either on the back of the product or under-
neath the battery in the battery compartment (or on a related acces-
sory such as the charger or docking station) signifies that the product
is RoHS-compliant as per the EU directive. Other than as noted
below, a Psion Teklogix product that does not have an accompany-
ing RoHS logo signifies that it was placed on the EU market prior to
July 1, 2006, and is thereby exempt from the directive.
Note: Not all accessories or peripherals will have a RoHS logo
due to physical space limitations or as a result of their
exempt status.
Disclaimer
Every effort has been made to make this material complete, accurate,

information herein; these changes will be incorporated into new edi-
tions of the publication.

the exposed terminals with metal objects such as wire. Do not
transport or store the battery together with metal objects such
as necklaces, hair pins, etc.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Do not use or leave the battery near a heat source such as a
fire or heater.
• Do not immerse the battery in water.
• When charging, use the battery charger specifically designed
for the battery.

1. Basic Preparation
Important: It is important that you review all safety guidelines
described under “Lithium-Ion Battery Safety Precau-
tions” on page 8 before charging a battery.
This quick start guide provides basic information on the operation
and features of the Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer.
For more detailed information, refer to the 7530 G2 Hand-Held
Computer User Manual, or the documentation supplied with the
application you are using.
Typically, 7530 G2 hand-helds are configured at the factory and
arrive ready for use. Although the 7530 G2 is equipped with an
internal Compact Flash and SD I/O slot, these slots are not intended
for user modification. If a device needs to be changed or added in
these slots, contact qualified Psion Teklogix personnel.
1.1 Charging The Battery
Batteries shipped from the factory are not charged. They must be
fully charged prior to use. Full capacity may not be reached until at
least 5 full charge/discharge cycles have been performed.
18 Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide
1.2 Attaching The Hand Strap
Important: Do not use adhesives such as Loctite to secure the
screws on the carrying accessories. These chemicals
may damage the plastic casing.
Two Phillips head screws are provided with the hand strap.
• Use a Phillips screwdriver to attach the strap to the two
threaded inserts at the back of the 7530 G2 at the top of
the unit.
Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide 19
• Stretch the handstrap toward the base of the 7530 G2, and
hook the bottom of the handstrap into the slot near the base of
the battery pack.
1.3 Attaching A Pistol Grip
The pistol grip is attached to the back of the 7530 G2 using the four
threaded inserts in the upper part of the 7530 G2 casing. Four black
#4-40 Phillips head screws are provided with this accessory.
Note: Prior to installation, make sure the trigger mechanism is
securely snapped into the pistol grip body and that the trig-
ger operates properly.
• Position the pistol grip so that it fits snugly over the back of
the unit and the inserts on the back of the 7530 G2 align with
the holes in the pistol grip.
20 Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide

2.2 The Battery
The 7530 G2 hand-held operates with a Lithium-Ion battery pack.
Preparing the hand-held unit for operation requires that a battery
pack be charged and installed in the unit.
Important: Before charging or using the battery pack, it is criti-
cal that the safety information on page 8 be reviewed
and that all warnings are strictly followed.
2.2.1 Battery Swap And Runtime
Important: Always switch the unit off before changing the bat-
tery. While the battery is being replaced, the 7530 G2
will save its current data for at least 20 minutes.
The 7530 G2 battery will operate for ten hours under typical operat-
ing conditions after a full charge. Typical battery life is 300 cycles or
2 years average use. A full charge is completed in 4 hours with a typ-
ical charge time of 1.5 hours.

2.3 The Keyboard
The 7530 G2 offers two types of keyboard layouts – a 63-key key-
board and a large button, 37-key keyboard.
The [BLUE] and [ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to addi-
tional keys and system functions. These functions are colour coded
in orange and blue print above the keyboard keys.
2.3.1 Modifier Keys
The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [BLUE] and [ORANGE] keys are
modifier keys. Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the
next key pressed. For example, on a 63-key keyboard, a square
bracket is printed in orange print above the [5] key. Pressing the
[ORANGE] key followed by the [5] key displays a square bracket
rather than the number 5.
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.
Activating Modifier Keys
When a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase let-
ters in the taskbar at the bottom of the 7530 G2 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.
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 [BLUE] key twice locks it on – it is displayed
as BLUE 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.
26 Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide
2.3.2 The Keys

entered key stroke.
[DEL] key ([BLUE] [BKSP]) erases the character at the cursor
position.
The [CTRL] And [ALT] Key
Modify the function of the next key pressed and are application
dependent.
The [TAB] Key
Usually moves the cursor to the next field to the right or down-
ward.
The [ESC] Key
Generally used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu,
dialog box or activity and return to the previous one.
The [SPACE] Key
Inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog box,
the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox.

2.7 Checking The Scanner
If your 7530 G2 is equipped with an internal scanner, you can test it
to ensure that it is operating properly. Point the scanner window at a
bar code that your scanner was designed to decode – for example, a
1D UPC bar code or 2D bar code. Press the SCAN button or the pis-
tol trigger, and check for a valid decode on the hand-held screen.
2.7.1 Scanning Techniques
Note: The scanning techniques described here apply to internal
and external scanners.
• Hold the scanner at an angle. Do not hold it perpendicular to
the bar code.
•Do not hold the scanner directly over the bar code. In this
position, light can reflect back into the scanner’s exit window
and prevent a successful decode.
• Scan the entire bar code. If you are using a 1D or 2D scanner,
make certain that the scan beam crosses every bar and space
on the bar code, including the margins on either end of
the symbol.
• If you are using a 2D imaging scanner, make certain the red,
oval-shaped framing mark is centered within the bar code you
want to scan.
• When using imaging scanners, do not move the scanner while
decoding the bar code. Movement blurs the image.
40 Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide
• Hold the scanner farther away for larger bar codes.
• Hold the scanner closer for bar codes with bars that are
close together.
2.7.2 Scan LED Indicators
The 7530 G2 scanner LED (the lower-left LED) indicates whether or
not your scan is successful. Refer to “LEDs” on page 32 for details.
A bar code icon appears on the screen during a scan. While the scan-
ner beam is active, the onscreen message states – SCANNING. If the
scan is successful, the bar code data is displayed on the screen until
the scan button (or pistol trigger) is released.
3. Navigating In Windows CE
Graphic user interfaces like Windows CE for portable devices and
desktop Windows (2000, XP, etc.) utilize ‘point and click’ naviga-
tion. On 7530 G2 touchscreens, the ‘point and click’ action is
accomplished by tapping the stylus on the touchscreen rather than
using a mouse.
An equivalent keyboard shortcut is also available for every ‘point
and click’ action. Actions can be performed using any combination
of keyboard shortcuts or touchscreen tapping
3.1 Navigating A Touchscreen
Note: If the touchscreen is not registering your screen taps accu-
rately, it may need recalibration. Refer to “Calibrating The
Touchscreen” on page 31.
The 7530 G2 is equipped with a stylus – a pointing tool that looks

5. General Maintenance
5.1 Caring For The Touchscreen
The touchscreen 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.
Protect the touchscreen from the following chemicals:
• mustard, ketchup
• sodium hydroxide,
• concentrated caustic solutions,
• benzyl alcohol, and
• concentrated acids.
If touchscreens are used in harsh environments, apply disposable
screen protectors to dramatically extend the life of the touchscreen.
5.2 Cleaning The 7530 G2
Important: 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.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals for
cleaning. The 7530 G2 has a plastic case that is susceptible to
harsh chemicals. The plastic is partially soluble in oils, min-
eral spirits and gasoline. The plastic slowly decomposes in
strong alkaline solutions.
To clean ink marks from the keypad and touchscreen, use
isopropyl alcohol.
