Operating the PTC
Holding the PTC
An optional hand strap is available. Use the PTC’s hand grip to hold the unit securely
during use.
Positioning the antenna
If your PTC contains a radio but not an expansion
module, an external antenna will be attached to the
PTC. To achieve maximum signal strength for both
transmission and reception, bend the antenna at its
knuckle; then, make sure the antenna is
perpendicular to the ground, regardless of whether
you are holding the PTC or it is installed in a
communication cradle.
Turning on the PTC
To turn on the PTC, press the On/Off button. The
CPU LED blinks rapidly while the PTC boots.
Refer to the PTC-2124 Software Guide
for a list of other possible wake
sources.
When the PTC is in standby mode, you can wake it by
gently tapping the tip of the stylus on the PTC’s
screen or by pressing the On/Off button.
When the PTC is in suspend mode, you can activate it
by pressing the On/Off button.
