CARE & MAINTENANCE

 This mobile computer is intended for industrial use. The mobile computer is rated

IP 64, however, it may do damage to the mobile computer when being exposed to extreme temperatures or soaked wet.

 When the body of the mobile computer gets dirty, use a clean and wet cloth to

wipe off the dust. DO NOT use/mix any bleach or cleaner. Always keep the LCD dry.

 For a liquid crystal display (LCD) or touch scre en, use a clean, non-abrasive,

lint-free cloth to wipe dust off the screen. DO NOT use any pointed or sharp object to move against the surface.

 Battery disposal - For green-environment issue, it is important that batteries should

be recycled in a proper way.

 If you want to put away the mobile computer for a period of time, download the

collected data to a host computer, and then take out the battery pack. Store the mobile computer and battery pack separately.

 When the mobile computer resumes its work, the main and backup batteries will

take a certain time to become fully charged.

1.1 BATTERY

 Main Battery

The 9400 Mobile Computer is powered by a rechargeable 3.7 V/1800 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 mobile computer 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/70 mAh rechargeable Lithium button cell helps retain data in SRAM and maintain the system running in suspend mode for at least 20 hours without the main battery. In the meantime, you have to replace the main battery as soon as possible.

9400 Mobile Computer Reference Manual

1.1.1 INSERTING THE BATTERY

When you first receive the package, the rechargeable functionality of the backup battery is turned off. It is controlled by a DIP switch inside the battery compartment as shown below.

For shipping and storage purposes, save the mobile computer and the main battery in separate packages, and adjust the DIP switch to the OFF position (bottom). This will keep both batteries in good condition for future use.

Note: Any improper handling may reduce the battery life.

1) Press for the mobile computer to enter suspend mode.

2) Remove the hand strap.

Chapter 1 錯誤! 尚未定義樣式。

3) Hold the mobile computer still and press the release button to unlock the battery

cover.

4) Slide off the battery cover.

5) Use the stylus (or a sharp-pointed object, such as a pencil) to adjust the DIP

switch to the ON position (top). Now the internal backup battery can be charged by the main battery.

6) Insert the battery pack into the battery compartment at a proper angle (30°~45°)

so that the metal contacts on the battery are met with the charging contacts inside the compartment. Make sure that the battery is snugly fit into the compartment.

7) Slide the battery cover back onto the mobile computer until it clicks into place.

8) If the battery is charged, the mobile computer turns on.

If the mobile computer does not turn on, charge the battery.

Note: 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.

Figure 5: Installing the Main Battery

9400 Mobile Computer Reference Manual

1.1.2 CHARGING THE BATTERY

The main and backup batteries may not be charged to full for shipment. When you first receive the package, you will need to charge batteries to full before using the mobile computer.

Note: To charge the batteries to full, it requires approximately 8 hours for the first time.

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

Because the internal backup battery is constantly charged from the main battery, the initial charging requires inserting the battery pack to the mobile computer and then seating the mobile computer in the cradle for charging. This will have both the main and backup batteries charged at the same time. To charge the backup battery, make sure that you slide the DIP switch inside the battery compartment to the ON position.

Note: 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.

Chapter 1 錯誤! 尚未定義樣式。

1.1.3 UNDERSTANDING THE BATTERY ICONS

The battery pack is the only power source for the mobile computer 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 (see below for battery status icon), you need to replace the battery pack with a charged one or charge it as soon as possible. Most of all, always save data before it is too late; you should backup important data on a regular basis.

BATTERY STATUS ICONS DESCRIPTION

Main Battery

Charging Main battery is ready for charging.

Warning: Data loss may occur with SRAM during low battery condition. Always

save data before running out of power or keep a fresh battery for replacement.

Main battery charge becomes low. Main battery charge becomes very

low.

1.1.4 POWER MANAGEMENT

For any portable device, power management is a critical issue especially when you are on the road. Below are some tips to help you save battery power.

 To speed up charging the mobile computer, turn off the mobile computer and

seat it in the cradle.

 Bring a second battery pack on the road.

9400 Mobile Computer Reference Manual

 Stop wireless connectivity, Bluetooth, 802.11b or GPRS that is not in use. Refer to

the Wireless Power Manager.

 To save power, go to Start > Settings > Control Panel and select Display (for

backlight settings) or select Power (for power schemes).

Warning: Using backlight, wireless connectivity, and peripherals while on battery

power will substantially reduce battery life.

START > SETTINGS > CONTROL PANEL AND DOUBLE-TAP THE POWER ICON

1) In the Battery tab (left below), you can always monitor the charging status.

2) Tap the Schemes tab (right above).

3) Select the desired power scheme and options for suspending operation when not

in use. The system can be set to three different states to conserve power:

 User Idle state  System Idle state  Suspend state

The time choices represent the amount of time that must pass before the system will switch to the next power conservation state.

START > SETTINGS > CONTROL PANEL AND DOUBLE-TAP THE DISPLAY ICON

To conserve mor e power, you may go to Start > Settings > Control Panel and double-tap the Display icon to configure the backlight setting. Refer to section 1.4.1

1.2 MEMORY

 Read-only Memory (ROM)

128 megabytes flash memory for storing OS (Windows CE 5.0) and custom application programs. Yet a small portion of the memory is referred to as DiskOnChip, which can store data and programs that you wish to retain even after a hardware reset.

 Random-access Memory (RAM)

64 or 128 megabytes SDRAM for storing and running programs, as well as storing program data. Its contents will be retained by the backup battery.

 Expansion Slot

The mobile computer is equipped with one miniSD card slot, which is user accessible. You may upgrade memory by inserting an optional miniSD memory card.

1.2.1 CAUTION OF DATA LOSS

When the main battery is removed or drained, the backup battery on the main board is to retain the contents of SRAM and maintain the OS in suspend mode for at least 20 hours, on condition that the backup battery has already been fully charged.

If you want to put away the mobile computer for a couple of days, you should be aware that data loss occurs when both the main and backup batteries discharge completely. Therefore, it is necessary to backup data and files before putting away the mobile computer!

1.2.2 CHECKING THE STORAGE SPACE

START > SETTINGS > CONTROL PANEL AND DOUBLE-TAP THE SYSTEM ICON

1) In the Memory tab (left below), it displays the current capacity and usage of the

onboard SDRAM, 64 MB / 128 MB.

2) You may tap, hold, and drag the slider to re-allocate the memory.

storage device will be permanently erased after reformatting.

1.2.3 INSERTING THE MINISD CARD

If you wish to expand memory, follow these steps to insert a memory card into the miniSD card slot:

1) Press

2) Place the mobile computer face down on a flat and clean surface.

3) Remove the side plate by unscrewing the two screws (on the right side when you

place the mobile computer face down) as shown below.

4) Insert the miniSD card properly.

5) Replace the side plate and tighten the screws.

for the mobile computer to enter suspend mode.

Warning: Make sure the mobile computer is set to Suspend mode; otherwise, it

may cause damage to the mobile computer.
