Resetting your handheld computer
Under normal circumstances, you will not have to use the reset
button. On rare occasions, however, your handheld computer may no
longer respond to buttons or the screen. In this case, you need to
perform a reset to get your handheld computer running again.
Performing a soft reset
A soft reset tells your handheld computer to stop what it’s doing and
start over again. All records and entries stored in your handheld
computer are retained with a soft reset. After a soft reset, the Welcome
screen appears, followed by the General Preferences screen (to set
time and date).
To perform a soft reset:
■
Use the reset tip tool, or the tip of an unfolded paper clip (or
similar object without a sharp tip), to gently press the reset button
inside the hole on the back panel of your handheld computer.
Tip: Some handheld computers include a metal and plastic stylus
with a reset tip inside. To use it, unscrew the metal barrel from
the stylus quill.
