Important: The 7535/7530 uses a high capacity Lithium-Ion battery. It is crit-
ical that you review the battery safety guidelines in “Lithium-Ion
Battery Safety Precautions” on page 323 before charging the
battery.
Batteries shipped from the factory are not charged. They must be fully charged prior
to use. Full capacity may not be reached until at least 5 full charge/discharge cycles
have been performed.
Batteries can be charged using a gang charger or the unit’s internal charger. When
using the internal charger, a suitable power source is required. All chargers and
docking stations are described in Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories
beginning on page 321.
Important: For 7535 hand-helds, updating software to PCON version
100835C1 or later automatically resets the battery’s parameters.
The battery gauge will display 0% capacity only until the battery is
recalibrated. However, the operator can safely use the battery
because a ‘low battery’ warning based on voltage (at approximately 6.8 volts) will be displayed, allowing sufficient time to
change the battery.

Attaching Carrying Accessories
Regarding battery calibration, keep in mind that all types of
battery chargers available for the 7535 contain single discharge
circuits so that only one battery can be calibrated at a time (a calibration cycle requires discharging the battery and then calibrating to the new full charge). If multiple batteries require
calibration, care should be taken to ensure that these batteries are
placed into a charger that is not already calibrating a battery.
2.1.3 Attaching Carrying Accessories
Psion Teklogix recommends that a carrying accessory – a hand strap, pistol grip or
shoulder strap – be installed on the 7535/7530 before use. If your hand-held is not
fitted with a hand strap or pistol grip, you can install either using the carrying
accessory kit supplied. You’ll need:
• A Phillips head screwdriver.
Important: Do not use adhesives such as Loctite to secure screws on carrying
accessories. These chemicals may damage the plastic casing.
2.1.3.1 Attaching The Hand Strap
Two Phillips head screws are provided with the hand strap.
• Attach the strap to the two threaded inserts located at the back of the
7535/7530 near the top of the unit.

Authentication
802.11 supports two subtypes of network authentication services: Open
and Shared. Under Open authentication, any wireless station can request
authentication. The station that needs to authenticate with another wireless
station sends an authentication management frame that contains the identity
of the sending station. The receiving station then sends back a frame that
indicates whether it recognizes the identity of the sending station.
Under Shared authentication, each wireless station is assumed to have
received a secret shared key over a secure channel that is independent from
the 802.11 wireless network communications channel.
Network Key:
This text box is used to specify a 5 or 13 ASCII character sequence or an
equivalent 10 or 26 Hexadecimal digit sequence that matches the active

system functions. These functions are colour coded in orange and blue print above
the keyboard keys.
3.5.1 Modifier Keys
The <SHIFT>, <CTRL>, <ALT>, <BLUE> and <ORANGE> keys are modifier
keys. Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed. For
example, on a 7535 58-key keyboard, a square bracket is printed in orange print
above the <4> key. Pressing the <ORANGE> key followed by the <4> key displays
a square bracket rather than the number 4.

Activating Modifier Keys
The <SHIFT>, <CTRL> and <ALT> keys operate much like a desktop keyboard
except that they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier
key must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.
3.5.1.1 Activating Modifier Keys
When a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the
taskbar at the bottom of the hand-held screen. For example, if the <CTRL> key is
pressed,
pressed, the modifier key becomes inactive and disappears from the taskbar.

3.5.1.2 Locking Modifier Keys
When a modifier key is pressed twice, it is ‘locked’ on. A ‘locked’ modifier key is
displayed in uppercase letters in the taskbar. For example, pressing the <BLUE>
key twice locks it on – it is displayed as BLUE KEY in the taskbar at the bottom of the
computer screen.
The locked modifier key will remain active until it is pressed a third time to unlock
or turn it off. Once a modifier key is unlocked, the uppercase representation at the
bottom of the screen is no longer displayed.
Note: The locking function of the <ORANGE> and <BLUE> keys can be dis-
abled so that pressing either of these keys once will lock the keys ‘on’.
If you disable the ‘One Shot’ function of either of these keys, pressing the
<BLUE> and/or <ORANGE> key once will lock the key ‘on’. Pressing
the same key a second time will unlock or turn it ‘off’. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 100 for details.
3.5.2 The Keys
The <SHIFT> Key
The <SHIFT> key is used to display uppercase alpha characters and provide access
to the symbols above the numeric keys.
The Arrow Keys
The Arrow keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow –
up, down, left and right. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that
indicates where the next character you type will appear.

Alphanumeric Keyboards - 58-Key And 63-Key
The <BKSP/DEL> Key
The <BKSP> key (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves the
cursor one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke.
The <DEL> key (<BLUE> <BKSP>) erases the character at the cursor position.
The <CTRL> And <ALT> Key
The <CTRL> and <ALT> keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are
application dependent.
The <TAB> Key
Typically, the <TAB> key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or
downward.
The <ESC> Key
Generally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog
box or activity and return to the previous one.
The <SPACE> Key
Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog
box, pressing the <SPACE> key enables or disables a checkbox.
The <SCAN> Key
Pressing the <SCAN> key – the yellow key with the star-burst scan symbol on it –
activates the scanner beam while pressed. For units that do not have internal
scanners, this key is inoperable.
3.5.3 Alphanumeric Keyboards - 58-Key And 63-Key
In addition to alphanumeric keys that are directly accessible on the keyboard (no
key combination is required) and the keys described in this chapter, the 58-key
keyboard (7535) and the 63-key keyboard (7530) also provides function keys and
macro keys.
Function keys <F1> through <F24> can be used with the CE operating system or
another application. The additional function keys – <F25> through <F30> along
with the macros are not used as part of the Windows CE .NET operating system.
All function keys and macro keys can be custom defined for each application. The
Tekterm application utilizes these keys. Refer to “Additional Keyboard Functions”
on page 221 for details about accessing function keys <F25> to <F30>.

3.5.4 Numeric Keyboards - 36-Key And 37-Key
On 36-key 7535s and 37-key 7530s, all alpha characters are printed on the unit
plastic in orange typeface above the numeric keys. To access an alpha character, you
must first press the <ORANGE> key and then press the numeric key above which
the alpha character you want to type is printed.
Because the alpha keys on these keyboards are laid out much like the letters on a
telephone – generally in groups of three letters per numeric key – you need to take a
few extra steps to access the alphabetic characters. The examples in this section help
illustrate how to access alpha characters.
Choosing A Single Alpha Character
Note: Keep in mind that the following examples assume that ‘One Shot’ is
enabled, locking the <ORANGE> key on after being pressed only once.
Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 100 for details.
The examples below illustrate how to access A, B and C, all of which are printed in
orange characters above the numeric key, <2>.
To choose the letter ‘a’:
• Press the <ORANGE> key, and press the numeric key <2>.
To choose the letter ‘b’:
• Lock the <ORANGE> key ‘on’, and press <2> twice.
• Unlock the <ORANGE> key.
To choose the letter ‘c’:
• Lock the <ORANGE> key ‘on’.
• Press <2> three times, and then
• Unlock the <ORANGE> key.
Creating Uppercase Letters
To display a capital letter:
• Press the <ORANGE> key and then the <SHIFT> key before typing the
alpha character.

Numeric Keyboards - 36-Key And 37-Key
Choosing More Than One Alpha Character From The Same Key
If you need to choose more than one alpha character from a single key, you’ll need
to press the ‘Accept’ key between alpha selections. The ‘Accept’ key is presented as
an arrow ⇒ symbol above the ‘0’ (zero) key. Pressing this key signals the
7535/7530 to display the alpha character you’ve chosen and await the next selection
from the same key.
For example, suppose you want to type the letters ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’. These letters are
all accessible from the numeric key, <2>.
To type the letter ‘a’:
• Lock the <ORANGE> key ‘on’, and then press the numeric key, <2>.
• Press the ‘Accept’ key < ⇒> to indicate that the letter ‘a’ should be
accepted and that another letter from the same key will be chosen.
To type the letter ‘b’:
• Press the <2> key twice.
•Press < ⇒> to accept the letter ‘b’.
To type the letter ‘c’:
• Press the <2> key three times.
When you have completed your alpha selections from this key, you can do one of the
following:
• If you want to choose additional alpha characters from another key(s),
leave the <ORANGE> key ‘on’, and press the next numeric key that
supports the alpha character you require.
• If you do not want to choose any additional alpha characters, unlock the
<ORANGE> again, and end alpha selection.
Choosing Multiple Alpha Characters From A Range Of Keys
If you plan on choosing alpha characters from a number of different keys, you are
not required to press the ‘Accept’ < ⇒> key after each alpha selection. The < ⇒>
key is only required when you are choosing more than one alpha character from the
same key – e.g., ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’ from the <2> key.

The Keypad Backlight
Suppose you want to type the letters ‘a’, ‘d’ and ‘g’. These alpha characters are
accessed from the numeric keys <2>, <3> and <4>.
• With the <ORANGE> key locked ‘on’, press <2> to type the letter ‘a’.
• Press <3> to type ‘d’, and press <4> to type the letter ‘g’.
• To end alpha selection, unlock the <ORANGE> key.
3.5.5 The Keypad Backlight
The intensity of the keypad backlight and the conditions under which this backlight
is activated can be configured using the Keyboard icon in the Windows CE .NET
Control Panel. The behaviour of the keypad backlight is tailored in the Keyboard
Properties dialog box. Refer to “Keyboard Backlight” on page 99 for details about
this option.
Note: Keep in mind that this option may be restricted to supervisory use only.
3.6 The Display
7535s and 7530s are equipped with display backlighting to improve character
visibility in low light conditions. The backlight switches on when a key is pressed
and the ambient light is below the set threshold. A light sensor on the front of the
hand-held determines the ambient light level. On some displays, the contrast can
also be adjusted to further improve character visibility.
3.6.1 Adjusting The Display Backlight
The behaviour of the display backlight – the ambient light threshold below which
the backlight will become active and the intensity of the backlight – can be specified
in the Display Properties dialog box in the Control Panel.
Note: Refer to “Display Backlight” on page 95 for details about the Display
Properties dialog box.
3.6.2 Adjusting The Contrast
Note: In addition to the manual adjustments described in this section, the dis-
play contrast can also be adjusted using the Windows CE .NET Control
Panel. Refer to “Display Backlight” on page 95 for details about this
dialog box.

Calibrating The Touchscreen
The display contrast can be adjusted from the unit keyboard using the <BLUE> key
and function keys <F1> and <F2>. Pressing <F1> darkens the display, and
pressing <F2> lightens the display. Keep in mind that adjusting the contrast on
a colour display is much less pronounced than on a monochrome display.
To adjust the display contrast:
• Press the <BLUE> key twice to lock it on, and then press <F1> to
darken the display or <F2> to lighten the display.
• Once you’ve successfully adjusted the display contrast, remember to press
the <BLUE> key again to turn it ‘off’.
Note: Contrast settings are optimized for the maximum readability. However, if
the display jitters or flickers, consider adjusting the contrast at power up.

Internal Scanners
However, external decoded scanners must be configured by scanning special configuration bar codes. In these cases, the scanner manufacturer provides programming
manuals for configuration purposes.
• For Symbol decoded scanners, refer to the appropriate programming guide:
• P300.
• LS3408
• For Symbol non-decoded scanners, refer to the LS3200 Programming Guide.
• For Power Scan (PSC) decoded and non-decoded scanners, refer to the
Powerscan Programing Guide (PSC).
Scanner types include:
• Advanced Long Range – reads very large 1D bar codes (60 mil+) at very
long distances (up to 14m).
• Long Range – reads large 1D bar codes (55 mil) at long distances
(up to 3m).
• Wide Angle – reads large (or long) 1D bar codes (55 mil) at short distances
• High Performance – reads regular bar codes (5 - 55 mil) at medium distances (up to 1m).
• Short Range (SE923) – reads regular bar codes at short distances. This
scanner is included with an RFID reader in the combo RFID/laser option.
• RFID – is a short-range device that can read RFID tags within 1 cm. of the
hand-held scanner window. It supports the Sirit 13.56MHz RFID
reader/writer module and the Sirit 13.56MHz combo RFID reader/writer
laser bar code scanner module. These modules read the following RFID
tags: Phillips I-Code, Texas Instruments Tag-It, ISO-15693, Microchip
MCRF350 series, Inside Technologies PicoTag.
The bar code scanner reads the following bar codes: UPC/EAN, Code 128,
Code 39, Code 93, I 2 of 5, Discrete 2 of 5, Codabar and MSI Plessey.
• Fuzzy Logic – reads damaged or low contrast regular 1D bar codes (5 55mil) at medium distances (up to 1m).

Scanning Techniques
It is critical that you review the warnings listed in the “Approvals and Safety” section
at the beginning of this manual before using any of the scanners described in this
chapter. “Scanning Techniques” outlines the mechanics of a successful scan. In
addition, review “Scan LED Indicators” on page 55 to better understand how to
interpret whether or not a bar code has been successfully scanned. Finally,
“Troubleshooting” on page 56 provides some helpful suggestions should the scan fail.
3.8.1 Scanning Techniques
Note: The scanning techniques described here apply to internal and external
scanners.
• Hold the scanner at an angle. Do not hold it perpendicular to the bar code.
•Do not hold the scanner directly over the bar code. In this position, light can
reflect back into the scanner’s exit window and prevent a successful decode.
• Scan the entire bar code. If you are using a 1D or PDF laser scanner, make
certain that the scan beam crosses every bar and space on the bar code,
including the margins on either end of the symbol.
• If you are using a 2D imaging scanner, make certain the red, oval shaped
framing mark is centered within the bar code you want to scan.
• Hold the scanner farther away for larger bar codes.
• Hold the scanner closer for bar codes with bars that are close together.
3.8.2 Scan LED Indicators
The scanner LED (the lower-left LED) indicates whether or not your scan is
successful. The LED behaves as follows:
• Scan In Progress: scan LED displays solid red colour.
• Successful Scan: scan LED displays solid green colour and turns off when
the scan is ended.
• Unsuccessful scan: scan LED flashes red.
A bar code icon appears on the screen during a scan. While the scanner beam
is active, the onscreen message states – SCANNING. If the scan is successful,
the bar code data is displayed on the screen until the scan button (or pistol trigger)
is released.

Troubleshooting
3.8.3 Troubleshooting
If the scanner is not working, investigate the following:
• Is the unit on?
• Check that the bar code symbology being scanned is enabled for the
hand-held you are using. Check any other parameters that affect the scanning procedure or the bar code.
• Check the bar code to make sure it is not damaged. Try scanning a different
bar code to verify that the problem is not with the bar code.
• Check that the bar code is within the proper range.
• Does the hand-held display the warning without scanning? This suggests a
hardware problem in the hand-held.
• Is the laser beam scanning across the bar code?
• Once the scan beam has stopped, check the scanner window for
dirt or fogging.
3.8.4 Operating One Dimensional (1D) Internal Laser Scanners
• Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.
Important: If an aiming dot is available on the installed scanner, the dot will
be enabled for a configurable time period (including off), after
which normal scanning begins. Refer to “Dot Time (msec)” on
page 153 for details.
Double-clicking the trigger will override the aiming delay and
initiate an immediate scan. Note that the aiming dot is standard
on long-range and high visibility internal scanners.
• Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger. A scan beam and a
warning indicator appear until a successful decode is achieved or six
seconds have elapsed.

3.8.5 Operating Internal PDF Laser Scanners
This scanner decodes PDF417 two-dimensional bar codes.
• Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.
• Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger. The beam expands
into a rectangle covering the bar code to properly scan it. The scan beam
and a warning indicator are visible until a successful decode is achieved or
three seconds have elapsed.
3.8.6 Operating Internal Two Dimensional (2D) Imager Scanners
An imager scanner takes a snap shot of a single bar code or multiple bar codes (at
one time). It can find a bar code regardless of its orientation – that is, even a bar
code printed at a 45 degree angle to the hand-held will be decoded successfully.
Note: When scanning multiple bar codes, ensure that all of the desired bar
codes are within the field of view of the scanner. It is possible that even
when all bar codes are within the field of view, not all of them will be
decoded. Only successfully decoded bar codes are passed to the application program. The application program then issues a warning, asking that
you scan the missing bar codes.
When scanning a single bar code, ensure that only the desired bar code is
within the field of view of the scanner.
Because imager scanners generally have a shorter depth of field than laser scanners,
some practise may be required to find the optimal distance from the types of bar
codes being scanned. Although the imager includes illumination LEDs, ambient
light will help the imager decode the bar codes, especially if the bar code is far from
the hand-held.
Important: Keep in mind that the imager scanner is a camera, and the LED
illumination is a flash. Glare can be an issue on reflective media
such as plastic coated bar codes, just as glare is an issue for photographers. When pointing at a shiny surface, either shift the bar
code to the side or top, or angle the bar code so that the glare
reflects away from the imager scanner.
• Turn the hand-held computer on. Wait until the unit has booted
up completely.

Operating RFID/Scanner Modules
• Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger.
• When the scan button or trigger is pressed, a red, oval shaped light (the
framing marker) is displayed. Centre the framing marker in the field –
either in the centre of the bar code you want to scan or in the centre of the
area in which multiple bar codes are to be scanned.
Illumination LEDs will flash and a picture of the bar code(s) is taken.
3.8.7 Operating RFID/Scanner Modules
The RFID module is a short-range device. Configuration is not required for the
RFID reader.
Important: For successful reads, the distance from the hand-held to the
RFID tag varies depending on the type of tag.
Reading An RFID Tag
• Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.
• Position the scanner window of the 7535/7530 no more than 1 centimetre
from the tag. Depending on the type of tag you are reading, you may actually need the 7535/7530 scanner window to touch the RFID tag.
To test how the unit reads and writes RFID tags, a demonstration application has been
provided. The demo application - RfidReader - is located in the \Windows folder.
This demo application performs the following tasks:
• Loads the internal RFID device driver and displays driver/device information.
• Reads the in-range tag data when the scan trigger is pressed.
• Converts the tag data to text format and outputs the text to the keyboard buffer.
• Provides a UI (User Interface) to notify the operator that the RFID device is
currently active (since there is no physical indicator from the reader).
• Provides a UI to allow the operator to modify various text conversion settings.
Note: The UI (User Interface) for this application is a single system tray icon.
The icon changes when the RFID device is active and also indicates a
successful or unsuccessful scan. In addition, it displays a “scanning” bar
code indicator during the read process.
• Caches a short list of previously read tags to make it easier for the operator
to repeat the ‘output to keyboard buffer’ process.

seconds have elapsed.
Note: The SE923 scanner is not equipped with a targeting dot.
3.9 Connecting & Disconnecting Tethered Peripherals
Tethered peripherals such as scanners and printers connect to the hand-held
computer with a quick release, circular connector. When a peripheral is connected to
the hand-held, the unit detects the peripheral and loads the necessary drivers for it.
An icon in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen provides a visual representation of
the peripheral and indicates that it is ready for operation.
To attach the peripheral to the round, tether port on the side of the unit:
• Insert the barrel of the plug into the tether port and rotate slowly until
it clicks into place. The red dot on the port and on the connector should
be aligned.

Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time
To remove the peripheral:
•Grasp the shell of the plug, and pull it back gently to unlock and release the
connector.
Figure 3.11 Disconnecting The Tether Cable
Important: Never attempt to disconnect a peripheral by pulling the connector
by the wire. The connector is locked into place and can only be
unlocked and removed by pulling back the plug
shell.
3.10 Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time
Under normal operating conditions, fully charged batteries last for 10 hours. As
Lithium-Ion batteries age, their capacity decreases gradually, and they are generally
considered depleted after approximately 2 years of use (less than 60% of original
capacity remaining). Keep in mind however that heavy usage or operating the
7535/7530 at temperature extremes will shorten the battery life.
Lithium-Ion batteries do not require conditioning cycles and the 7535/7530 battery
system (including chargers) requires no user interaction to maintain peak
performance.
To maximize the run time of your batteries, consider the following:

Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535/7530
Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time
• The display backlight is the largest drain on the battery. Try to keep its
brightness as low as possible.
• The hand-held is ‘event’ driven – that is, when the unit is not in use, it
reverts to sleep mode (even when it appears to be running), saving battery
power. Events include a key press, touchscreen taps and scan triggers.
Power consumption is reduced if you avoid unnecessary events, and allow
the unit to sleep as much as possible.
• The hand-held battery is a ‘smart battery’ with built-in intelligence. The
taskbar battery icon is a linear gauge used to estimate the remaining run
time of the battery. It is important to note that the battery capacity icon displays quarter percentages of nominal capacity (the capacity of a new battery). An aged battery, even when fully charged, shows somewhat less
capacity than nominal.
Double-tapping on the battery icon displays a dialog box that provides
detailed information about the battery status and performance. If the
remaining capacity indication seems inaccurate, the battery may need recalibration. Recalibration requires that the battery be fully charged, discharged
and then charged again before use. If the battery is fully discharged and
charged on a regular basis, recalibration should not be necessary.
• When the hand-held is switched off, it goes into a low-power, suspend state
but continues to draw a small amount of power from the battery. This
should not be an issue unless the unit is left in suspend state for more than a
week – in this case, the battery should be removed.
• Batteries left unused for durations of more than one or two months should
be fully charged, discharged and then charged again before use. This recalibrates the gas gauge and allows the internal electronics to determine the
actual capacity of the battery.

Storing Batteries
3.10.1 Storing Batteries
Long term battery storage is not recommended. If storage is necessary:
• Always try to use a ‘first-in first-out’ approach to minimize storage time.
• Lithium-Ion batteries age much faster at elevated temperatures. Store batteries at temperatures between 0° C and 20°C.
• Always charge batteries to 40 to 60% before storing them. Batteries can be
damaged by an over-discharge phenomenon that occurs when an empty
battery is stored for a long period of time such that the cell voltage drops
below a lower limit.
• To minimize storage degradation, recharge stored batteries to 40 to 60%
every 4 or 6 months to prevent over-discharge damage.
• A ‘never used’ Li-Ion battery that has been stored for 3 years may have
limited or no useful life remaining once put into service. Think of batteries
as perishable goods.
3.11 Monitoring The Network Connection
If your hand-held is equipped with a wireless LAN radio, it will typically associate
with the nearest access point. The radio signal quality meter in the taskbar indicates
the relative strength of the communication link.
To access the radio signal icon:
• Tap on the radio icon in the taskbar to display the wireless statistics
dialog box.
To access the radio signal icon using the keyboard:
• Press <BLUE> <0> to display the Start Menu.
• Highlight Shortcuts and then choose System Tray from the sub-menu.
• Use the <LEFT> and <RIGHT> arrow keys to highlight the radio signal
icon in the taskbar.
• Press <ENTER> to display the Wireless Statistics dialog box.
Note: Moving in and out of the radio coverage area can have varying effects on
a network session. At times, you may need to renew your connection by
logging in again.

Uploading Data In A Docking Station
3.12 Uploading Data In A Docking Station
The Combo Docking and Quad Docking peripherals allow your hand-held to link to
an Ethernet network. They are typically used to upload transaction data to a server
computer when a radio link is not available. When a 7535/7530 is properly inserted
in a docking station, a dock icon is displayed in the taskbar at the bottom of the unit
screen. The hand-held also detects the presence of the Ethernet network. Review the
documentation provided with the user application installed in your 7535 or 7530
before preforming data uploads.
3.13 General Maintenance
3.13.1 Caring For The Touchscreen
The touchscreen is covered with a thin, flexible polyester plastic sheet with a
conductive coating on the inside. The polyester can be permanently damaged by
harsh chemicals and is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. Using sharp objects
on the touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic, or crack the internal conductive
coating.
The chemicals listed below must not come into contact with the touchscreen:
• mustard, ketchup
• sodium hydroxide,
• concentrated caustic solutions,
• benzyl alcohol, and
• concentrated acids.
If the touchscreen is used in harsh environments, consider applying a disposable
screen protector (PN HU6110). These covers reduce the clarity of the display
slightly but will dramatically extend the useful life of the touchscreen. When they
become scratched and abraded, they are easily removed and replaced.

Cleaning The 7535/7530
3.13.2 Cleaning The 7535/7530
Important: Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild
detergent to wipe the unit clean.
•Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals for cleaning. The
7535/7530 has a plastic case that is susceptible to harsh chemicals. The
plastic is partially soluble in oils, mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic
slowly decomposes in strong alkaline solutions.
• To clean ink marks from the keypad and touchscreen, use isopropyl alcohol.

Navigating In Windows CE .NET And Applications
4.1 Navigating In Windows CE .NET And Applications
Graphic user interfaces like Windows CE .NET for portable devices and desktop
Windows (2000, XP, etc.) utilize ‘point and click’ navigation. An equivalent
keyboard shortcut is also available for every ‘point and click’ action.
Windows CE .NET supports the same ‘point and click’ user interface and keyboard
shortcuts as desktop Windows with one difference – the ‘point and click’ action is
accomplished using a touchscreen rather than a mouse. Actions can be performed
using any combination of keyboard shortcuts or touchscreen tapping. (Keep in mind
that some 7535s are not equipped with touchscreens).
4.1.1 Navigating Using A Touchscreen And Stylus
Note: If the touchscreen is not registering your screen taps accurately, the
touchscreen may need recalibration. Refer to “Calibrating The Touchscreen” on page 46.
A touchscreen is standard for all 7530s but is an optional feature on 7535s. A
hand-held equipped with a touchscreen has a stylus – a pointing tool that looks
like a pen – stored in a slot at the top of the unit. The stylus is used to select objects
on the touchscreen.
Note: To prevent damage to the touchscreen, use only the stylus (pen)
supplied with your 7535/7530.
To choose an icon, open a file, launch an applet or open a folder:
• Double-tap the stylus on the appropriate icon.
4.1.2 Navigating Using The Keyboard
While all 7530s are equipped with touchscreens, 7535s can be ordered with or
without touchscreens. If your 7535 has a standard screen (rather than a touchscreen),
choosing icons and navigating dialog boxes, displaying the desktop, and so on
requires keyboard input. If your unit has already been fully configured and your
application is launched at startup, you’ll have little need for keyboard navigation.
Note: Keep in mind that these keyboard sequences can be used on all 7535s and
7530s regardless of whether or not they are equipped with touchscreens.
