Locking the MX8WM
Locking the MX8WM
The MX8WM can be locked manually by tapping Device unlocked on the Today screen. By default, this option is included on
the Today screen. Care should be taken to not accidentally tap this area of the Today screen. Lock can be removed from the
Today screen by selecting
Start | Settings | Personal | Today | Items
tab.
The MX8WM can also be configured to Lock automatically after a defined period of inactivity. This setting is accessed via
Start | Settings | Personal | Lock | Password tab. By default, this options is Disabled.
When the MX8WM is locked, the Today screen displays Device locked by default. Click Unlock at the lower part of the
screen:

If there is no password or PIN set, click Unlock on the next screen to unlock the MX8WM. The MX8WM is returned to
normal operation.
l
If there is a password or PIN set, enter the password/PIN and click Unlock. If several unsuccessful attempts are
made, the MX8WM may be configured to display a password hint.
The password and hint are configured by selecting
Start | Settings | Personal | Lock | Password
and Hint tabs.
Reboot Sequences
When the Windows Mobile Today panel is displayed or an application begins, the power up (or reboot) sequence is complete. If
you have previously saved your settings, they will be restored on reboot. Application panel changes are saved when ok is
tapped on an application properties panel.
During the processes that follow there may be small delays while the wireless client connects to the network and Bluetooth
relationships establish or re-establish.
Suspend / Resume
Quickly tapping the Power key places the MX8WM in Suspend mode. Quickly tapping the Power key again, pressing any key,
pressing the trigger (on the trigger handle), or tapping the touchscreen, returns the MX8WM from Suspend. The System LED
blinks green when the video display is Off.
Warm Boot
Temporary data not saved is lost. All previous user setting panels and changes are saved.
Hold down the Power key and then the Enter key until the screen blanks. Release the keys and the MX8WM warm boots.
Cold Boot / Restart
Temporary data not saved is lost. All programs are re-launched, programs installed from CAB files are reinstalled. Previously
saved user settings are restored. Restart is also called cold boot. Hold down the Blue key, the Scan key and the Power key
until the screen blanks. Release the keys and the MX8WM cold boots.
Be sure to press the Scan key not the Enter key. Pressing the Enter key causes a warm boot instead of a cold boot.
