Erase all data? To answer YES*: use “up” or down” arrows, or NO: use any other button.
*Note: If you select yes, all data and installed applications will be erased but factory settings remain.
IMPORTANT NOTE about battery door:
XP30 mobile computers feature a
battery door removal
detection switch
. This is designed to protect against data loss if the battery is removed during data
collection or processing. The system will not fully operate when the battery cover is removed. As a result
of this feature, XP30 devices automatically create a safe state until the battery cover is secured, meaning
a device will power-down until the battery door is closed. It will then recall and resume from the user’s
most recent screen when the battery door is fully in place.
Power-down:
Upon performing a reset, you may find that the device automatically powers-down shortly
after the reset begins to take. This is a normal function of the battery door removal detection switch; the
reset will hold. Simply secure the battery door and the XP30 device will resume activity at the last screen.
While there is no technical reason to rush to secure the battery door, you may avoid the power-down
activity by quickly securing the battery door.
