Chapter 3 Uses and Functioning
The use of the Quintet C35
TM
handheld device depends on the application software loaded.
However there are several parameters that can be set and utilities that can be used to
perform some basic functions such as data capture, communications, file management,
etc.
3.1 PDA Startup
The Quintet C35
TM
handheld device turns on when the battery pack or the external supply
is inserted.
After the battery pack is installed, use the [ON/OFF] key to turn the PDA on and off.
As soon as the PDA is on, the Windows CE/ Windows Mobile desktop screen will appear.
Wait a few seconds before starting any activity so that the PDA completes its startup
procedure.
When it is no longer used for more than a programmable timeout, which is defined in
the Power applet of the Control Panel, the PDA goes into power-off (low power with display
and keyboard backlight off). In this mode it can be awakened (resuming operation) by
the [Standby] key.
3.2 Using the Stylus
The stylus selects items and enters information. The stylus functions like a mouse.
Tap: Touch the screen once with the stylus to open items and select options (Windows
Mobile only).
Double Tap: Touch the screen twice with the stylus to open items and select options
(Windows CE only).
Drag: Hold the stylus on the screen and drag across the screen to select text and images.
Drag in a list to select multiple items.
Tap-and-hold:
Tap and hold the stylus on an item to see a list of actions available for that item. On
the pop-up menu that appears, tap the action you want to perform.
NOTE
The PDA can also be awakened or turned off by the application program.
