SECTION 1 General Information
Display
This hand-held computer offers an easy to read Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD) with touch screen. The display
shows status messages, keyed-in entries, customer or product lists, calculations, and prompts for responses. To write
or enter data on the touch screen use only the stylist provided with your computer or use your finger. The
PEN*KEYRModel 6100 Programmer’s Reference Guide
NPN: 977-054-001 contains details for adjusting the contrast settings.
Backlight
Your hand-held computer display comes equipped with a
backlight. Backlighting the display helps when using your
hand-held computer in dark rooms or during early or late
hours on the job.
Backlighting provides a great benefit in dark conditions.
Backlighting does, however, reduce battery life, therefore,
turn off the backlight when done using. You can control the
amount of time the backlighting remains on through the
CONFIG.SYS parameter settings, or your particular application.
Battery
"
NOTE: It is important to charge your hand-held computer for at least 14
hours before you use it the first time. This ensures that both the
backup battery and the main battery pack are fully charged.
This hand-held computer uses a 910 mA hour lithium ion
rechargeable main battery pack. Your hand-held computer
can check battery capacity by various methods. One, the
battery pack has four LEDs that will display remaining capacity when two of the contacts are touched at the same
time. More on this in Section 2 on page 2-9. A second meth-
6100 Hand-Held Computer User’s Guide 1-7
SECTION 1General Information
od which your hand-held computer can be configured includes a program called DOSGAS. DOSGAS gives you the
capacity of your battery from 0--100% with an icon on your
display that looks like a battery (see Figure 1-4 on page
1-9).
If your hand-held computer goes into a shutdown mode because of low battery condition, data is protected by the
backup battery. Your hand-held computer contains two 100
mA hour vanadium lithium backup batteries. The backup
battery charges itself from the main pack or a charging
source so it is constantly ready to take over data protection.

SECTION 1General Information
This user’s guide will occasionally use the term “cycles”
when presenting rechargeable battery instructions. Cycles,
are the number of times the rechargeable battery pack can
be charged and discharged during the life of battery. The
Lithium Ion rechargeable battery design should give you
approximately 500 cycles of use. There are no guarantees
on this number because it depends greatly on how the battery pack is used and cared for.
Memory
Three types of memory are available with this hand-held
computer:
" Main Memory DRAM
" Flash ROM
" PC Cards
Main Memory
Standard main memory DRAM configuration is 2 megabytes (MB), this can be extended to 4, 8, or 16 MBs. Main
memory was ordered at the time your unit was purchased.
You are able to upgrade to a larger memory size by having a
new memory board installed at your Customer Support
Center.
The main memory is protected by the backup battery during low main battery conditions or when the main battery
pack is removed.
Flash ROM
Flash ROM stores the BIOS and DOS firmware for your
hand-held computer. Applications stored in flash ROM are
copied into DRAM for execution.
PC Cards
Different brands of PC cards can be used in your hand-held
computer. Memory cards are available in a variety of sizes
1-10 6100 Hand-Held Computer User’s Guide
SECTION 1 General Information
and types. Check with your Sales Representative or System Engineer for specific options.
Your hand-held computer is equipped with two PC card
slots. These slots can be used with PC memory cards for
storage of data, much like a floppy disk drive on a PC. PC
card slots can also be used for modems, radios, and other
options as they become available.
You can use one Type II card in each drive at the same time.
If using a Type III card, it only works in drive A (lower).
However, you can not use a Type III and a Type II card at
the same time. Type III cards include some types of disk
drives and radios.
[Gold] (Shift) Key
Hold down and press desired gold (shifted) key functions.
Continue to hold down the [GOLD] key for each shifted key
stroke you wish to make.
[1/0] Suspend and Resume Key
In order to conserve power your hand-held computer may
automatically suspend when there has been no activity for
a set period of time. This time is determined by the
parameters you set using your application software,
AUTOEXEC.BAT, or CONFIG.SYS parameters.
To force a suspend, press the key defined as the suspend
key. To resume operation, press the [1/0] key. Additionally,
pressing the release button on the battery pack door forces
a suspend. This protects against losing data when removing
the battery pack.

Reset Switch
In the rare event that your hand-held computer fails to respond to your input, it may be necessary to “reset.” Avoid
over using the reset switch as this increases the chances
that data will be lost. Only use the reset switch as a last
resort after trying all other solutions.
The reset switch in the hand-held computer is located behind the PC card endcap. Figure 1-5 shows the location of
the reset switch. To reset your hand-held computer, use the
tip of the stylus that is provided with your hand-held computer.

Radio Module and Headset
Your hand-held computer can be ordered with a radio module. Using a radio module allows you to operate in a mobile environment and have real-time interaction with a host
computer. The radio module attaches to the back of your
hand-held computer as a pod. Under most conditions the
radio module is ordered at the time of purchase.
Headsets for circuit-switched cellular radios can be ordered
as an accessory at any time. Figure 1-8 shows a hand-held
computer with a radio module.

Magnetic Stripe Reader
The Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR) is an optional endcap
attachment for your hand-held computer. Your MSR reads
credit, charge, and debit (for example, ATM) cards.
The MSR attaches between the endcap and the computer.
The MSR can be attached and used with either the tethered
scanner or integrated scanner endcaps (see Figure 1-9 and
Figure 1-10).
