CHARGING & COMMUNICATIONS

The main and backup batteries may not be charged to full for shipment. When you first receive the package, you will need to charge the main battery to full before using the TERMINAL. Instead of direct charging, you may use a cradle or charger to charge the TERMINAL or spare batteries.

Note: For initial charging, it takes approximately 8 hours to fully charge the main battery.

After the initial charging, it takes only 4 hours to charge the main battery to full.

9600 Mobile ComputerReference Manual

Warning: It is recommended that the charging devices be operated at room

temperature (18°C to 25°C) for optimal performance. The charging devices will not charge the battery when the temperature exceeds 40°C.

Because the internal backup battery is constantly charged from the main battery, the initial charging requires inserting the battery pack to the TERMINAL and then connecting the TERMINAL for direct charging or via cradle. This will have both the main and backup batteries charged at the same time. It takes at least 48 hours to fully charge the backup battery. However, it is not necessary to fully charge the backup battery for the TERMINAL to work.

Note: (1) To charge the backup battery, make sure that you slide the DIP switch inside

the battery compartment to the ON position. (2) In order to charge the backup battery to full, you must insert the main battery and leave it for at least 48 hours, whether the TERMINAL is in use or not.

1.1 BATTERY

Chapter 1

 Main Battery

9600 TERMINAL is powered by a rechargeable 3.7 V/2700 mAh Li-ion battery pack, and it takes approximately 4 hours to fully charge it. However, the charging time may vary by working condition. During normal operation, the TERMINAL can work for up to 10 hours.

 Backup Battery

The backup battery on the main board takes charge when the main battery is removed or drained out. When fully charged, the 3.7 V/80 mAh rechargeable Lithium button cell helps retain data in SRAM and maintain the system running in suspend mode for at least 24 hours without the main battery. In the meantime, you have to replace the main battery as soon as possible.

Warning: The battery cover must be in position; otherwise, the TERMINAL cannot

turn on. For a new battery, make sure it is fully charged before use. Always prepare a spare battery pack, especially when you are on the road.

9600 Mobile ComputerReference Manual

1.1.1 UNDERSTANDING THE BATTERY ICONS

The battery pack is the only power source for the TERMINAL to work. It also charges the backup battery on the main board so that the data stored in SRAM can be retained properly. Therefore, when the main battery charge goes low, you need to replace the battery pack with a charged one or charge it as soon as possible. Most of all, you should backup important data on a regular basis. By looking at the battery icon, you can tell battery charge remaining in the main battery – the higher the green level, the more power in the main battery. Double-tap a battery icon so that you can quickly access the [Power Properties] dialog box.

 Upon cold boot, the OS shall automatically execute AutoRun.exe  Upon warm boot, the OS shall automatically execute AutoRun.exe

If AutoRun.ini exists

 Upon cold boot, the OS shall automatically check the contents of AutoRun.ini and execute

them (if there is any).

9600 Mobile ComputerReference Manual

Any line prefixed with a semicolon “;” is supposed to be a comment line only; otherwise it is an executable file or command and shall be executed (line by line). The line to execute a cabinet file (.cab) must be specified with two dots “. .” for the absolute path. For example,

\DiskOnChip\cerdisp.exe :\DiskOnChip\ReaderConfig.exe ;\DiskOnChip\RF9600_CE.exe ..\DiskOnChip\cerdisp.cab :..\DiskOnChip\ReaderConfig.cab

 Upon warm boot, the OS shall automatically check the contents of AutoRun.ini and execute

Any line prefixed with a semicolon “;” is supposed to be a comment line only. The line to execute a cabinet file (.cab) must be specified with a colon “:”, followed by two dots “. .” for the absolute path. For example,

:\DiskOnChip\ReaderConfig.exe ;\DiskOnChip\RF9600_CE.exe :..\DiskOnChip\ReaderConfig.cab

Note: Because the cabinet files are designed to install the application, tidy up, and then

“self destruct”, they will be automatically deleted from your TERMINAL after installation. However, AutoRun.ini will backup the original files (.cab) while installing cabinet files, and restore them after installation. Consequently, these cabinet files will be automatically re-installed to your TERMINAL upon cold boot or warm boot, if specified in AutoRun.ini.

CONFIGURING 9600 TERMINAL

In this chapter, a brief on the system settings is provided for your reference. The Application Manager is specifically designed for the administrator to manage the accessibility of applications and protect the integrity of the system on the TERMINAL. It serves as a portal that allows launching routine application programs automatically upon a reboot, preventing users from running potentially distracting applications, as well as to restricting access to changing device settings.

Note: User settings are stored in SDRAM and will be overwritten by the system defaults

after hardware reset. However, you can use the CipherLab Backup Utility to backup the current registry for restore purpose.

 Down: not recognized  Disabled  Not Associated  Associated  (EAP type) Authenticated

Radio Type “BG” means a Summit radio that supports 802.11b and 802.11g.

Regulatory Domain It indicates the regulatory domain or domains for which the radio is

configured by factory. “Worldwide” means that the radio can be used in any domain.

Note: If “ThirdPartyConfig” is selected, after the TERMINAL goes through a power cycle,

Windows Zero Config (WZC) or another application is used for configuration of all radio and security settings. The Summit Client Utility can only be used to define the Client Name, Power Save, Tx Power, Bit Rate, Radio Mode settings, as well as the global settings.

Auto Profile & List

Activate or deactivate an automatic profile selection facility. It makes use of a list of profiles you

created. If such list does not exist, tap [List] to select the profiles in use.

When the facility is active and the radio is not associated to an access point, SCU runs through the list and tries each profile one by one until the radio associates to an access point using the values in a profile. The profile becomes the Active Profile and remains so until the radio disassociates or disconnects from the network.

Import/Export

It is made easy to clone the profile(s) and global settings from a master TERMINAL to others. Tap [Import/Export] and select the task to perform: “Import from” or “Export to”.
