System Reset
If the TAB100 PDA locks up or seems to have ceased to function you can normally re-start it by invoking
a system reset.
This is an easy process and there are 2 types of reset:-
Hard Reset – this will delete all data files in the unit and reset the system clock and screen
calibration
System Reset – will allow the unit to restart but only reset the system clock and screen calibration.
Hard Reset:
Find a thin blunt instrument, such as a paper clip and:
1. Hold the ON/OFF button at the same time as inserting the blunt instrument into the reset hole on the
back of the unit, just below the product identification label. Press gently and then release. The
calibration screen will then appear.
2. Tap the centre of calibration targets on the screen sequentially.
3. After the screen calibration the login screen will display if login password is activated.
4. Enter correct login password to go to Main Menu.
System Reset:

3. After the screen calibration the login screen will display if login password is activated.
4. Enter correct login password to go to Main Menu.
Note:
The unit will take up to 1 minute to re-boot as it has to process data in the memory of the unit.
Please wait whilst this process takes place and do not be tempted to keep pressing the ON/OFF button
otherwise this will interrupt the process.
