Hand-Held Computer Keyboard
The hand-held computer provides a 16 key keyboard. All
keys with the exception of the I/O key are programmable for
individual functions. Figure 1-3 details the basic keyboard
layout.

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. The touch
screen can be used with a stylus, or your finger to choose
functions, record signatures, or enter data.
Adjusting the contrast setting for the display is done by
pressing the gold Shift key and tap either the 1 (increase) or
2 (decrease) key until you achieve the desired level. Of
course, this will depend on if these keys have not been programmed for other functions.
Backlight
Your hand-held computer display and keyboard comes
equipped with a backlight. Backlighting provides a great
benefit in dark conditions.
Backlighting does, however, reduce battery life, therefore,
turn off the backlight when done using.
To turn the backlight on, press the gold Shift key and the 3
key. To turn the backlight off, press gold Shift and the 3 key
again. The amount of time the backlight stays on before
shutting itself off is set and controlled through the Configuration Program.
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 1500 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 ca-
6110 Hand-Held Computer User’s Guide 1-5
SECTION 1General Information
pacity when two of the contacts are touched at the same
time. More on this in Section 2 on page 2-9. A second method is to use a software fuel gauge based on the APM 1.1
specification.
If your hand-held computer goes into a shutdown mode because of low battery condition, data is protected by the
backup battery. Your 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.
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, used in the main
pack, 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 computer:
" Main Memory DRAM
" Flash ROM
" PC Cards
Main Memory
Standard main memory DRAM configuration is 8 megabytes (MB), this can be extended to 16, or 32 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.
1-6 6110 Hand-Held Computer User’s Guide
SECTION 1 General Information
Flash ROM
Flash ROM stores the BIOS and BIOS extensions for your
hand-held computer.
PC Cards
Different brands of PC cards can be used in your hand-held
computer. Memory cards are available in a variety of sizes
and types. Check with your Sales Representative or System
Engineer for specific options.
Your computer is equipped with three PC card slots. These
slots can be used with memory cards for storage of data,
much like a floppy disk drive on a PC. These slots can also
be used for modems, radios, hard drives, and other options
as they become available.
Two of the PC card slots are version 2.0 Type II and the
other slot is an ATA card slot. Type III cards can be
installed but you sacrifice slot space. The ATA and two PC
slots have card guides, but the empty bay on top does not.
There is no blockage between any of the slots, so any pair of
Type II bays can accommodate a Type III card.
EXAMPLE: A Type III ATA hard drive card can be installed in the ATA slot, but it
takes up the PC slot B bay space. A Type III PC card installed in slot
B takes up slot B and A; and a Type III PC card installed in slot A
takes up slot A and the empty bay.

PC Card Slots
When a card is installed, the top label of the card faces upward (per the orientation shown in Figure 1-5). Slot C (ATA
slot) must always have a mass storage device to serve as
the system disk (C:). This can be a SanDisk flash memory
card or a rotating hard disk drive. The system will not operate without this disk present.
6110 Hand-Held Computer User’s Guide 1-9
Slots A and B are true PC card slots, and can accommodate
a variety of pc cards such as modems, radios, or additional
mass storage.
A special factory installed option involves a serial interface
radio card (example: Motorola Series 500 Radio) for use in
slot A. This type of card does not have PC interface, therefore, it cannot be inserted all the way into the connector at
the back of the bay. A special bracket holds the card in
place, and the serial interface is attached via a flex cable.
"
NOTE: Section 2 page 2-11 shows you how to install the PC cards.
[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.
SECTION 1General Information
[I/O] 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 configuration program.
To force a suspend, press the key defined as the suspend
key and hold the key down for three seconds. To resume operation, press the [I/O] key. Additionally, pressing the release button on the battery pack door forces a suspend. This
protects against losing data when removing the battery
pack.

Resetting
In the rare event that your hand-held computer fails to respond to your input, it may be necessary to “reset.” To reset
press the Gold (shift), Ctrl, Alt keys at the same time, hold
the keys down for three seconds, and your computer will
reboot.
Options and Accessories
Radio Card
Your hand-held computer can be ordered with a radio card.
Using a radio card allows you to operate in a mobile environment and have real-time interaction with a host computer. The radio card slides into either PC card slot A or B (see
page 2-11 for installation and location detail).

Introduction
This section tells you how to:
" Install the main battery pack
" “Power-up” your hand-held computer
" Install PC cards
" Connect to peripheral devices
Getting Started
Unpack your Intermec 6110 Hand-Held Computer and inspect it for signs of physical damage from shipment or storage.
When you start using your hand-held computer or any time
that all power has been completely removed, you are “cold
booting” your hand-held computer. The method you use depends on your application.
For example you may download (transfer from the host
computer to your hand-held computer) the application and
data into your computer. Or, you may use PC cards to load
the application and data.
Depending on the method you are using, the result will be
the same but the steps you go through may vary from the
way this user’s guide presents the material.
