Resetting the Unit
“Reset” is similar to a computer reboot. Performing a reset deletes any data that is in
the process of being input or edited, without yet being saved. Data stored in memory
and all settings, however, are retained.
Perform the reset operation whenever the unit fails to operate correctly due to
operational error or some other abnormality. Any of the following symptoms indicate
that reset is required.
•
Failure of the unit to respond when the screen is tapped or a button is pressed
•
The hourglass icon remaining on the screen
Performing a Reset
1. Use the stylus to press the RESET button.
•
The unit performs a reset followed by a memory check operation.
If no data error is found, the following two screens appear on the display in
succession.
•
Startup screen
•
Desktop
2. Normal unit operation is possible after the desktop appears.
•
Memory data and settings are retained when you reset the Pocket PC.
Important
If the above operation does not solve the problem, perform a full reset (memory
initialize, page 36).
