NEO Hand-Held with Windows Mobile 6.1 Classic User Manual
7.8.4.1 Network Addressing
Although the USB converters have fixed Ethernet MAC addresses, there is generally no cor-
relation between these addresses and a specific hand-held. The host application uses
standard TCP/IP protocol to name, locate and communicate with a specific NEO on
the network.
If a link is established between NEO and a host, the application on the host and on the hand-
held must have a recovery mechanism in the event that NEO is removed from the dock and
the link is interrupted.
7.8.5
Battery Charging – LED Behaviour
Charge status is displayed on the hand-held LED. Refer to Table 7.3 on page 219 for
detailed LED charge behaviour. When inserted in the quad dock, NEO requires 3 hours to
charge the battery to 75% capacity. Charge durations are independent of the number of
NEOs docked.
7.8.6
Troubleshooting
The indicators, applications and drivers required to use and monitor the docking station are
installed on NEO – no indicators or applications are present on the docking station itself.
7.8.6.1 Network Link Unsuccessful
If a network link fails, the application must take appropriate action.
7.8.6.2 NEO LED Does Not Light When Docked
•
Check that the quad docking station has power: Is the Power LED on the docking
station illuminated?
•
Try inserting NEO in another well in the quad dock.
•
Check for dirt or contamination on the docking contacts at the bottom of NEO. Wipe the
contacts with a damp cloth if necessary.
•
Check the connector pins inside the dock cradle for dirt. Gently wipe with a soft cloth if
they appear to be dirty or discoloured.
•
Check that the contacts are not bent or damaged.
•
Remove and reinsert NEO in the cradle.
Note: The specified battery charge times are based on NEO being powered off. Additional
peripherals and other power consumption features will also alter the specified
charge time.
