Please see the following sections for detailed battery information: • • • • • 3.2.1 Installation: “Preparing Omnii for Operation” on page 14. Calibration and power settings: “Power Properties” on page 85. Chargers and docking stations: Chapter 5: “Accessories”. Specifications: “Lithium-ion Smart Battery 5000 mAh (ST3000)” on page E-5. Contact pinout: “Omnii Battery Contacts” on page A-6. 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 the Omnii Hand-Held Computer Regulatory & Warranty Guide, PN 8000191. 3.2.2 Battery Swap Time Assuming the default power saving parameters and battery reserve level have not been altered, battery swap time is a minimum of 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 microSD 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. Refer to “Suspend Threshold and Estimated Battery Backup” on page 87 for details about reserving battery power for data backup purposes. The Suspend Threshold adjustment in the Power Properties tab allows you to determine the battery capacity at which Omnii 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, Omnii shuts off with more energy left in the battery so RAM can be backed up for a longer period of time. Important: If your Omnii fails to power up, consider the following troubleshooting options: The battery may be overheated (>60C°), a non-Psion battery may be installed, or the battery may have fallen below the configured Suspend Threshold. See “Suspend Threshold and Estimated Battery Backup” on page 87 for details. To switch on the hand-held, you will need to replace the overheated battery. However, if you supply AC power to Omnii with a battery that falls below the configured Suspend Threshold, the unit will switch on. 3.2.3 Charging the Battery Batteries shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% of capacity. Lithium-ion battery packs must be fully charged before use. These batteries can be charged with a variety of chargers and docking stations. For detailed information on these accessories, please see Chapter 5: “Accessories”. Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 21 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii The Keyboard Regulatory Draft Normally it takes 3 to 4 hours to charge a battery. The Omnii intelligent charging system protects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at maximum capacity. Table 3.1 Omnii Internal Battery Charging Times % Charge Completed During Sleep Mode While Operating 100% 4 hrs. 8 hrs. 75% 2 hrs. 6 hrs. 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 The Keyboard Omnii offers a wide variety of Alpha and Numeric keyboard layouts. See http://www.psion.com/us/products/handheld/omniit10_accessories.htm for a list of available configurations. 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, those differences are described in the following sections. Omnii is equipped with an [Enter/Power] key that allows you to switch the unit on and to shut down the unit to Suspend or Standby mode. For details refer to “Switching Omnii On and Off” on page 15. There are a number of modifier keys that provide access to additional keys and system functions, as described in “Modifier Keys” on page 23. Figure 3.1 Keyboard Layouts [SYM] Modifier Key [SCAN] Key [FN] Modifier Key [ENTER/Power] Key [SHIFT] Modifier Key [Windows] Key 36-KEY Numeric 123 Keyboard 3.3.1 59-KEY Alpha ABC Keyboard Regular Keys The [ENTER/Power] Key The [ENTER/Power] key is used to execute the usual Enter keyboard functions as well as to power the unit on and off (for details refer to “Switching Omnii On and Off” on page 15). 22 Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Regulatory Draft Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Modifier Keys The [SHIFT] Key The [SHIFT] key is used to display uppercase alpha characters and to provide access to other symbols and functions on the numeric keyboards. Press the [SHIFT] key to turn the shift state 'on' (it will be represented by an up arrow in the taskbar), then press another key to access the shifted function of that key. Press the [SHIFT] key twice to lock the shift state on (the up arrow in the taskbar will be underlined). Press [SHIFT] again to turn the shift state off. To access CAPS LOCK mode, press [FN] + [SHIFT]. In this state, if you press a numeric key, the number is displayed rather than the normal shifted function of that key. Press [FN] + [SHIFT] again to turn the CAPS LOCK mode off. The Arrow Keys The [Arrow] keys are located near the top of the keyboard, and are represented on the keyboard as triangles pointing in different directions. The [Arrow] keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow: up, down, left and right. The left arrow key should not be confused with the [BACKSPACE] key which is depicted as a left arrow. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that indicates where the next character you type will appear. The [BACKSPACE/DEL] Key The [BACKSPACE] key (represented on the keyboard as an arrow pointing left) moves the cursor one character to the left, erasing the previous key stroke. The [DEL] key ([FN] +[BACKSPACE]) erases the character at the current cursor position. The [CTRL] and [ALT] Key The [CTRL] and [ALT] keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are application dependent. Pressing either key twice locks it 'on' (it appears underlined on the Taskbar). Pressing the key once again unlocks it. 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. The [SPACE] Key The [SPACE] key is represented on the keyboard by a long, low horizontal line contained by a small vertical line on each side. Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog box, pressing the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox. The [SCAN] Key Omnii is equipped with a single [SCAN] key on the keyboard and an extra [SCAN] button located on the left side of the unit. [SCAN] keys activate the scanner beam. For units that do not have internal scanners, these keys can be remapped to serve other functions. 3.3.2 Modifier Keys The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [FN] and [SYM] keys are modifier keys that change the function of the next key pressed. 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. [SHIFT] and [FN] The [SHIFT] and [FN] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and system functions. The functions related to these modifier keys are colour-coded in white and blue print respectively above the keyboard keys, dependant on your keyboard format. Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 23 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Modifier Keys Regulatory Draft [SYM] Note: When using the Mobile Devices SDK Developers' Guide (P/N 8100016), note that the [SYM] key is interchangeable with the [ORANGE] key. The Symbol [SYM] modifier key is represented on the keyboard by the characters ‘SYM’ and provides access to commonly used symbolic characters. Pressing the key brings up the Symbol soft input panel (SIP) onscreen keyboard, with symbols mapped to each key. If you wish to adjust the settings for the pop-up screen (e.g. time of delay before screen appears, etc.), modify the file softinputpanel.xml, located in the Windows folder. Note: Modifier keys are remapped in the Control Panel, and the Symbol SIP will automatically show and use the new mappings after the next reboot. The onscreen keyboard corresponds to the specific keyboard on your Omnii—either numeric or alphanumeric. Figure 3.2 Symbol Soft Input Panels Internet Browser Keys [SPACE] Key 36-KEY Numeric Keyboard 3.3.2.1 59-KEY Alpha Keyboard Activating Modifier Keys When a modifier key is pressed, it is shown in the softkey bar at the bottom of the screen, making it easier to determine whether a modifier key is active. For example, if the [CTRL] key is pressed, Ctrl 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. 3.3.2.2 Locking Modifier Keys When a modifier key is pressed twice, it is ‘locked’ on. A ‘locked’ modifier key is displayed in underlined letters in the taskbar. For example, pressing the [FN] key twice locks it on—it is displayed as an underlined blue ‘FN’ in the taskbar at the bottom of the computer screen. The same is true of the [SYM] key, which is shown as an underlined orange ‘SYM’ in the taskbar. 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 underline representation at the bottom of the screen is no longer displayed. Note: The locking function of the modifier keys can be changed so that pressing a key once will lock the key ‘on’. If you disable the ‘One Shot’ function of the key, pressing it once will lock the key ‘on’. Pressing the same key a second time will unlock or turn it ‘off’. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 75 for details. 24 Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Regulatory Draft 3.3.3 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Function Keys and Macro Keys Function Keys and Macro Keys In addition to the standard keyboard functions (see “The Keyboard” on page 22), Omnii supports function keys and macro keys. All function keys and macro keys can be custom defined for each application. The Open TekTerm application utilizes these keys (for detailed information, see the Open TekTerm Software User Manual, P/N 8000073). 3.3.3.1 Function Keys Function keys perform special, custom-defined functions within an application. These keys are accessed by pressing one of the dedicated function keys on the keyboard, or through the appropriate [SHIFT] or [FN] key sequence, depending on the keyboard variant being used. Alphanumeric Keyboard Function Keys The Alphanumeric keyboards are equipped with up to thirty function keys, including those function keys that are colour-coded in blue print above the alpha keys or function keys (depending on your keyboard). To access the blue function keys, press the [FN] key followed by the appropriate alpha or function key. Function keys [F1] through [F24] can be used with the Windows Embedded CE operating system or another application. The additional function keys, [F25] through [F30] along with the macros, are not used as part of the Windows Embedded CE operating system. Numeric Keyboard Function Keys The Numeric keyboards are equipped with up to 24 function keys, including those function keys that are colour-coded in white print above the function keys. Function keys F25 through F30 can only be accessed by remapping another key to that function. To access the white function keys, press the [SHIFT] key followed by the appropriate function key. 3.3.3.2 Macro Keys Important: Refer to “Keyboard Macro Keys” on page 75 for details about creating macros. Several of the Omnii keyboards 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/Power] key, the [BACKSPACE] key, any function key and arrow key, etc. 59-Key Alphanumeric Keyboard Macro Keys These keyboards have six macro keys: [M1] to [M6], located on the S to X keys (second-last row of keys). To access a macro key, press the [FN] key followed by the macro key. 36-Key Numeric Keyboard Macro Keys These keyboards are equipped with five macro keys: [M1] to [M5]. These keys are colour coded in blue print above function keys [F1] to [F5]. To access a macro key, press the [FN] key followed by the macro key. 3.3.4 Numeric Keyboards—Accessing Alpha Keys On the Numeric Omnii keyboards, all alphabetic characters are printed on the unit plastic in blue typeface above the keys. Alpha characters are accessed by pressing the [FN] modifier key, then pressing another key on the keyboard. The Alpha Modified Numeric 789 keyboard has each blue alphabetic character assigned as a single [FN]shifted character on individual keys. An indicator in the left corner of the taskbar displays the currently selected character. The Numeric 123 keyboards have telephone-style alphabetic keys, with the blue alphabetic characters located in groups of 3 or 4 above each of the numeric keys. To access characters on these keyboards, a few extra steps are needed, as described below. Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 25 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii The Keypad Backlight Regulatory Draft Choosing a Single Alpha Character Note: The following examples assume that the [FN] key is enabled as ‘Lock’ mode in the ‘One Shot’ screen (accessible through the Control Panel Keyboard icon). In ‘Lock’ mode, pressing the [FN] key once locks it ‘on’. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 75 for details. The examples below illustrate how to access A, B and C, all of which are printed in blue characters above the numeric key [2]. The letters you choose appear in the softkey bar as you press the numeric key, providing a visual indicator of which letter will be displayed on the screen. To choose the letter ‘a’: • Press the [FN] key, and press the numeric key [2]. • Press the [FN] key again to unlock or turn it off. To choose the letter ‘b’: • Press the [FN] key, and press [2] twice. • Press the [FN] key again to unlock or turn it off. To choose the letter ‘c’: • • Press the [FN] key, and press [2] three times. Press the [FN] key again to unlock or turn it off. Note: Keep in mind that there is a timeout of one second between key presses when sequencing through the alphabetic characters on a key. If you pause longer than one second between key presses, the alphabetic character that is displayed at that time will be entered. Selecting Uppercase Letters To display a single capital letter, press the [SHIFT] key first, then the letter you want. To access CAPS LOCK mode, press [FN] + [SHIFT]. In this state, if you press a numeric key, the number is displayed rather than the normal shifted function of that key.

OPEN LOCK 3.7 Scanners and Imagers Important: It is critical that you review the “Laser Warnings” in the Omnii Hand-Held Computer Regulatory & Warranty Guide (PN 8000191) before using any of the scanners described in this chapter. For detailed scanner specifications and decode zone tables, refer to Appendix D: “Internal Imager & Scanner Specifications” . Note: To enable a newly-installed imager or scanner, press and hold down the [FN] key and the [ENTER/Power] key simultaneously for a minimum of three seconds. Omnii supports a wide range of scanner options to address a variety of user application requirements. Refer to the following sections for detailed information: • • • • Scanner list and specifications: Appendix D: “Internal Imager & Scanner Specifications” . Configuration: “Scanners” on page 98 and “Manage Triggers” on page 81. “Scanning Techniques” on page 32 outlines the mechanics of a successful scan. “Scanner Status LED, Sounds, and Vibrations” on page 32 details how to interpret whether or not a barcode has been successfully scanned. • Barcode Parameters: Appendix C: “Scanner Settings”. • Imager Settings: Appendix B: “Imager & Camera Settings”. • “Troubleshooting” on page 32 provides some helpful suggestions should the scan fail. Scanner types include: • • • • Long Range: reads large 1D barcodes (55 mil) at long distances (up to 3m). Standard Range/High Performance: reads damaged or low contrast regular 1D barcodes (5 - 55mil) at medium distances (up to 1m). Extended Range: reads regular 1D barcodes (5 - 55mil) at short to medium distances (1m), as well as large 1D barcodes (e.g. 55 mil) at long distances. Fuzzy Logic: reads damaged or low contrast regular 1D barcodes (5 - 55mil) at medium distances (up to 1m). Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 31 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Basic Scanner Operations • • 3.7.1 Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely. Aim at the barcode and press the scan key or the trigger. A scan beam and a warning indicator appear until a successful decode is achieved or six seconds have elapsed. Scanning Techniques • • • • • • • 3.7.3 PDF Raster Laser: reads 2D PDF barcodes or damaged or low contrast regular 1D barcodes (5 - 55mil) at medium distances (up to 1m). 1D Imager: reads regular 1D and PDF417 barcodes at short to medium distances. Basic Scanner Operations • • 3.7.2 Regulatory Draft Hold the scanner at an angle. Do not hold it perpendicular to the barcode. Do not hold the scanner directly over the barcode. In this position, light can reflect back into the scanner’s exit window and prevent a successful decode. Scan the entire barcode. If you are using a 1D or PDF laser scanner, make certain that the scan beam crosses every bar and space on the barcode, 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 barcode you want to scan. When using imaging scanners, do not move the scanner while decoding the barcode. Movement blurs the image. Hold the scanner farther away for larger barcodes. Hold the scanner closer for barcodes with bars that are close together. Scanner Status LED, Sounds, and Vibrations The scanner LED (the far right LED) indicates whether or not your scan is successful. The LED behaves as follows: • Scan In Progress: scan LED displays solid red colour. • Successful Scan: scan LED displays solid green colour and turns off when the scan is ended. • Unsuccessful scan: scan LED flashes red. A barcode icon appears on the screen during a scan. While the scanner beam is active, the onscreen message states: SCANNING. If you want to turn off the onscreen message, disable the “Scan Indicator” parameter in the Control Panel>Scanners>Options>Display menu. When the scan is successful, the barcode data is displayed on the screen until the scan button (or pistol trigger) is released, but only if the “Scan Result” parameter is turned on in the Control Panel>Scanners>Options>Display menu. You can also enable sounds and vibrations to indicate good and bad scans by enabling those options in the Control Panel>Scanners>Options>Display menu. 3.7.4 Troubleshooting If the scanner is not working, investigate the following: • • • • • • • 32 Is the unit on? Check that the barcode symbology being scanned is enabled for the hand-held you are using. Check any other parameters that affect the scanning procedure or the barcode. Check the barcode to make sure it is not damaged. Try scanning a different barcode to verify that the problem is not with the barcode. Check that the barcode is within the proper range. Does the hand-held display the warning without scanning? This suggests a hardware problem in the hand-held. Is the laser beam scanning across the barcode? Once the scan beam has stopped, check the scanner window for dirt or fogging. Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Regulatory Draft Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Operating One Dimensional (1D) Internal Laser Scanners 3.7.5 Operating One Dimensional (1D) Internal Laser Scanners • Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely. Important: If an aiming dot is available on the installed scanner, the dot will be enabled for a configurable time period (including off), after which normal scanning begins. Refer to “Dot Time (msec)” on page -5 for details. Double-clicking the trigger will override the aiming delay and initiate an immediate scan. Note that the aiming dot is standard on long-range and high visibility internal scanners. • 3.7.6 Aim at the barcode and press the scan key or the trigger. A scan beam and a warning indicator appear until a successful decode is achieved or six seconds have elapsed. Operating Internal Two Dimensional (2D) Imagers An imager scanner takes a snap shot of a single barcode or multiple barcodes (at one time). It can find a barcode regardless of its orientation—that is, even a barcode printed at a 45 degree angle to the hand-held will be decoded successfully. Note: When scanning multiple barcodes, ensure that all of the desired barcodes are within the field of view of the scanner. It is possible that even when all barcodes are within the field of view, not all of them will be decoded. Only successfully decoded barcodes are passed to the application program. The application program then issues a warning, asking that you scan the missing barcodes. When scanning a single barcode, ensure that only the desired barcode is within the field of view of the scanner. Because imager scanners generally have a shorter depth of field than laser scanners, some practise may be required to find the optimal distance from the types of barcodes being scanned. Although the imager includes illumination LEDs, ambient light will help the imager decode the barcodes, especially if the barcode is far from the hand-held. Important: Keep in mind that the imager scanner is a camera, and the LED illumination is a flash. Glare can be an issue on reflective media such as plastic coated barcodes, just as glare is an issue for photographers. When pointing at a shiny surface, either shift the barcode to the side or top, or angle the barcode so that the glare reflects away from the imager scanner. Most imagers take several ‘snap shots’ of the barcode in order to decode it. It is normal for the LEDs to flash two or three times. Hold the unit steady between flashes to improve decode performance. • • Turn the hand-held computer on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely. Aim at the barcode and press the scan key or the trigger. Hold the trigger until a successful or failed scan result is obtained. • When the scan button or trigger is pressed, a red, oval shaped light (the framing marker) is displayed. Centre the framing marker in the field—either in the centre of the barcode you want to scan or in the centre of the area in which multiple barcodes are to be scanned. The illumination LEDs will flash (typically several times) and a picture of the barcode is taken. 3.8 Windows Embedded CE 6.0 3.8.1 Navigating in Windows Embedded CE and Applications Graphic user interfaces like Windows Embedded CE 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 Embedded CE 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 touchPsion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 33 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii The Windows Classic Shell Startup Desktop Regulatory Draft screen tapping.

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: • mustard • ketchup • sodium hydroxide • concentrated caustic solutions • benzyl alcohol • concentrated acids If the touchscreen is used in harsh environments, consider applying a disposable screen protector (ST6112). 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. Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 43 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Cleaning Omnii 3.10.2 Regulatory Draft Cleaning Omnii Important: Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild detergent to wipe the unit clean. To prevent damage to the touchscreen, use only your finger or the stylus (pen) supplied with your Omnii. • • • 44 Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals for cleaning. Omnii has a plastic case that 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. Psion Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual
