Suspending, powering off,
resetting, and restoring
factory defaults
The Power button allows you to suspend, power off, or
reset the device. A series of keyboard actions also lets
you restore the hard drive, settings, and icons to their
original factory defaults. Below are instructions for each
action.
Suspending the device. Suspending the Field PC is
different from powering it off:
Suspending the device puts it to sleep, and when it
is turned back on, the device remembers where it
was. Some battery power is used.
Powering off the device closes all programs and
turns off all of the power. No battery power is used.
We recommend suspending your device if you plan to
turn it off for less than two weeks.
To suspend your device, press the Power button briefly
and release. To resume the device from suspend mode,
press the Power button again.
Note: If you suspend the device while it is charging,
the flashing red light disappears. However, the device
continues to charge.
Powering off the Field PC. Powering off the device
ends all programs and removes power from all system
components except for the real-time clock. Unlike
suspend mode, the device resets when it is powered on
again.
To preserve battery power, we recommend you power
off the device if it will be left unused for two weeks or
longer.
