Hard Reset
A Hard Reset is a complete reset of the Falcon in which all applications are
forcibly closed, working RAM is cleared, and the system time and date are
reset.
Reason to Hard Reset.
Perform a Hard Reset when the Windows Mobile
operating system locks up and you cannot reset a “hung” application using the
Settings
or
Warm Reset
, as described above.
Procedure to Hard Reset.
To perform a Hard Reset, insert a paper clip
into the
<Reset>
aperture while pressing the
<POWER>
button (refer to Figure
32
).
The custom settings in the registry are persistent.
CAUTION
Once you initiate a Hard Reset, all applications are forcibly closed, working RAM
and files are cleared, and the Real Time clock is reset.
Any files or data in RAM will be lost if you Hard Reset.
Do not use a sharp object to perform a Hard Reset, as this can puncture the key-
pad, disabling the reset function, rupturing the Falcon industrial seal, and voiding
your warranty. Datalogic recommends using a straightened paper clip.
