2.1Preparing The Ikôn For Operation
2.1.1The Battery
The Ikôn is powered with a 5000 mAh Lithium-Ion battery pack, model number CH3000.
Before charging the battery, it is critical that you review the battery safety guidelines in the
“Ikôn Rugged PDA Warranty & Regulatory Guide”, PN 8000148.
Important: If the Ikôn is switched on and you need to remove the battery, press and hold
down the Power button until the ‘Shutdown’ screen is displayed. Choose
‘Shutdown’ and tap on OK before removing the battery.
Battery packs shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% and must be fully
charged prior to use. Batteries can be charged using a variety of chargers and docking stations along with an Ikôn 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”.
2.1.2Installing The Battery
•To unlock the battery cover, turn the left-hand battery fastener to the left, and turn the
right-hand battery fastener to the right.
•Remove the battery cover.
•Snap the charged battery into the Ikôn. Replace the battery cover, and lock the fasteners.

state is displayed.

Switching The Ikôn Rugged PDA Off
Important: If your Ikôn fails to power up, consider the following troubleshooting
options: the battery capacity may be too low (<100 mAh), it may be
overheated (>60° C), or the battery may have fallen below the configured
suspend threshold.
If you provide AC power to the Ikôn and either the battery capacity is too
low or is overheated, a yellow LED will flash and the unit will not
To switch on the PDA, replace the overheated battery or, in the case of a
depleted battery, wait for the capacity to reach an acceptable level.
However, if you provide AC power to an Ikôn with a battery that falls below
the configured suspend threshold, the PDA will

switch on.
Choosing Shutdown switches all radios off before placing the Ikôn in suspend state. The
blue radio LED will stop blinking indicating that all radios are off. As the dialog box indicates, choose this option when you need to swap the battery.
Choosing Suspend places the PDA into a power-saving suspend state. In this state, all
radios remain on, but the display, keyboard backlight and processor are switched off. When
the Ikôn is turned on from this state, operation resumes within a few seconds in the screen in
which you were working prior to suspend.

If you choose Standby, the display is turned off, the keyboard is locked and the touchscreen
is locked. The processor remains on so that any running applications will continue while the
Ikôn is in a Standby state. In addition, the radios remain on. Keep in mind that because the
processor continues to run, Standby mode consumes more power than Suspend mode.
Keep in mind that if you press and immediately release the Power button, a dialog box
appears letting you know that the Ikôn is preparing to enter suspend state. Only by pressing
and holding down the Power button can you choose between Suspend and Shutdown and
Standby.

14Ikôn Rugged PDA (Windows Mobile 6.1) User Manual
Data transfer options vary slightly depending on the type of operating system installed in
your PC. Microsoft® ActiveSync® is PC connectivity software that can be used to connect
your Ikôn to a PC running this software. ActiveSync works only with the Windows XP SP2
operating system or earlier.

•View Ikôn files from Windows Explorer.
•Drag and drop files between the Ikôn and the PC in the same way that you would
between PC drives.
•Back up Ikôn files to the PC, then restore them from the PC to the Ikôn again, if needed,
and so on.
2.3.1Using Microsoft® ActiveSync®
You can install active sync using the Getting Started CD provided with your Ikôn. Refer to
“The Getting Started CD” on page 13 for details. You can also follow the step-by-step instructions provided at the following website:
