Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Cleaning the Terminal
The PDT 7200 requires a minimal amount of maintenance. To prolong its life and avoid
problems, keep the terminal clean. Use a clean, soft cloth dampened with a mild cleanser such
as soap and water to clean the terminal. Do NOT use abrasive paper/cloth or abrasive/
corrosive cleaners.
Wipe the entire terminal, except for the scanner window. Wipe the scanner window
periodically with a lens tissue or other material suitable for cleaning optical material such as
eyeglasses.
Storage
If the terminal will not be used for longer than a week, store it in a cool, dry place away from
dust. Remove the battery and repackage the terminal in its original shipping container.
To store the terminal for a shorter period of time (a few days), leave the battery in the
terminal. Note that if the battery is left in the terminal for an extended amount of time, any
data stored on the terminal may be lost. The Lithium-Ion battery pack must be kept charged
to avoid loss of data.
Note: If you leave the terminal without a main battery for longer than 20
minutes, reboot the terminal and run the Setup Utility to reset the date
and time. See
Chapter 5, Operating the Terminal for more
information.
