Learning Software Build Versions

The Persistent Storage Manager (PSM) is an area of storage which is
embedded in a section of the system’s FLASH memory. This storage area is
not erased when a cold-boot is performed. It may, however, be erased dur­ing the reflashing process. In addition to storing applications and data files,
you do have the option to store a persistent registry to the PSM region.

To check to see if your CK60 Computer has the latest PSM build or the
latest operating system build, double-tap the Internet Explorer icon from
the desktop, then scroll down for the latest information displayed beneath
the CK60 Version Information title.

Chapter 1 — Using the CK60 Handheld Computer

Resetting Your CK60 Computer

You seldom need to perform a warm-boot or a cold-boot on the CK60
Computer. The CK60 Computer currently uses the configuration currently
saved in flash memory during the boot process.

In some cases where the CK60 Computer completely stops responding, an
application is locked up and does not respond, when you upgrade the firm­ware, or when you reflash the CK60 Computer, it may be necessary to per­form either a warm-boot or a cold-boot.

Performing a Warm-Boot on the CK60 Computer

If your charged CK60 Computer does not resume after pressing I, or if the
computer or an application is locked up, you may need to do a warm-boot.

•Press and hold I for ten seconds. The CK60 Computer tells you it is

performing a warm-boot, then comes back up to the start screen.

Performing a Cold-Boot on the CK60 Computer

If the CK60 Computer or an application is locked up and does not respond
to a warm-boot, do the following.

1 Release the lower clip of the hand strap.

CK60 Handheld Computer with Windows CE User’s Manual 3

Chapter 1 — Using the CK60 Handheld Computer

2 Remove the battery pack.

3 Press the reset button (shown in the following illustration).

4 Reinstall the battery pack.

Scanning Bar Codes

Do not look directly into the window area or at a reflection of the laser
beam while the laser is scanning. Long-term exposure to the laser beam
can damage your vision.

Press this reset button with your stylus.

Do not use force or a sharp object
when pressing the reset button. You
may damage the reset button.

Avertissement: Ne regardez pas directement la réflexion d’un rayon
laser ou dans la fenêtre du laser lorsque celui-ci est en opération. Si
vous regardez trop longtemps un rayon laser, cela peut endommager
votre vue.

Use the scanner to scan and enter bar code data. The type of scanner you
are using and the type of bar code you are decoding determines the way you
scan the bar code. The CK60 Computer supports the scanning of 2D
images. Plus, if you are using an integrated handle or a tethered scanner, the
way you scan bar codes is different.

When you unpack the CK60 Computer, these bar code symbologies are
enabled:

•Code39

•UPC/EAN

• PDF417 (if supported)

If you are using bar code labels that are encoded in a different symbology,
you need to enable the symbology on the computer.

Scanning with the 2D Area Imager

The CK60 Computer has the 2D area imager, which provides the ability to
scan 2D bar code symbologies and supports omni-directional (360°) scan­ning where you can position the CK60 Computer in any orientation to
scan a bar code label. Using the 2D area imager is very similar to taking a
picture with a digital camera.

Supported Devices

Chapter 1 — Using the CK60 Handheld Computer

To scan a bar code label with the 2D area imager
1 Press I to turn on the CK60 Computer.

2 Point the scanner window at the bar code label and hold the CK60

Computer steady a few inches from the label.

3 Press the Scan button on the keypad or pull the trigger on a handle and

center the red aiming beam over the bar code label.

The aiming beam is smaller when the imager is closer to the bar code and
larger when it is further away.

When the CK60 Computer successfully reads a bar code label, you hear
a high beep and the green Good Read light turns on briefly.

4 Release the Scan button.

The CK60 Computer should connect the following scanner models: 1551,
1553, 1555; ScanPlus 1800SR, 1800ST, 1800VT; Scan Image 1470; SR1
and SG1, SF51. There are a number of different scan engines covered by
these models, including RFID and XLR scan engines. Model 1555 and
Scan Image 1470 are supported as input devices only; configuration of
these models are accomplished by scanning labels.

Using the Ambient Light Sensor

The ambient light sensor automatically turns off the display lighting as sur­rounding light increases to conserve your CK60 Computer battery power.

As configured from the factory, the ambient light sensor is disabled. To
enable the ambient light sensor and change its settings, tap Start > Settings
> Control Panel. Double-tap the Backlight icon, then tap the right arrow
to scroll to and tap the Both Power tab. Make your selections, then tap OK
to exit this applet.

This assumes the backlight setting once the CK60

Computer is powered on.

This turns off the ambient light sensor.

With this, the backlight is disabled in normal environments.
With this, the backlight is disabled in bright environments.

CK60 Handheld Computer with Windows CE User’s Manual 5

Chapter 1 — Using the CK60 Handheld Computer

Using the Battery

The CK60 Computer uses a 17.3 Watt-hour, 7.2V, replaceable Lithium­Ion (LiIon) battery. You must fully charge the main battery before you can
use the CK60 Computer. When you change the battery, a backup battery
(super capacity) maintains your status, memory, and real-time clock for at
least 10 minutes.

The LiIon battery pack used in this device may present a fire or chemi­cal burn hazard if it is mistreated. Do not disassemble it, heat it above
100°C (212°F) or incinerate it.

Avertissement: Le paquet de piles d’ions de lithium qui est utilisé dans
cet appareil peut presenter un risque feu ou un risque chimique de
brûlure s’il est maltraité. Il ne faut pas le désassembler, le réchauffer à
une température plus élevée que 100°C (212°F) ou l’incinérer.

If you fail to replace the battery immediately, you may lose important
state or applications.

Attention: Si la batterie n’est pas remplacée immédiatement, des don­nées ou applications importantes risquent d’être perdues.

Dispose of used battery packs promptly. Keep away from children. Contact
your Intermec representative for replacement batteries.

Several factors determine the life of your battery such as extreme tempera­tures, input devices, and your usage. For example, if you use a tethered
scanner every day, you need to replace your battery more often than some­one who uses an internal scanner.

The CK60 Computer contains an internal super capacitor, a temporary
power storage device, that protects state for up to ten minutes. This is to
give you time to replace the main battery pack before state is lost. Be sure to

put the computer in a suspend mode before doing so.

You can configure the battery power fail level so that after the system shuts
down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient charge to allow the
unit to remain configured, keep proper time, and maintain DRAM
(Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least ten minutes at room tem­perature if the main battery remains in the handheld computer, using the
Power control panel applet (see page 8). The state and time are lost if:

• The battery discharges beyond this level.

• The battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode.

Changing and Installing the Battery

Make sure you fully charge the LiIon battery before you install it in your
CK60 Computer; and that you take at least 20 minutes to initially charge
the backup battery before the backup system is fully functional.

6 CK60 Handheld Computer with Windows CE User’s Manual

To charge the battery

Either insert the battery into the CK60 Quad Battery Charger or place the
CK60 Computer with battery installed in a CK60 Single Dock, a CK60
Single Dock with modem, or a CK60 Multidock. The battery charge time
is four hours or less on any of these docks if the temperature is within the
battery charging range.

You could also use a CK60 Power Adapter to keep the CK60 Computer on
full power.

For maximum efficiency, store your CK60 Computer on external power
with which to charge your batteries.

For more information on these accessories, see “Accessories for the CK60
Computer” on page 17.

To install the battery, insert the tabs on the bottom of the charged battery
into the CK60 Computer and snap the battery into place.
