1. Basic Preparation Important: All approval and safety information is outlined in the ‘7535 G2 Hand-Held Computer User Manual’ – part number 8000075. It is important that you review all safety guidelines before charging a battery or operating a scanner. This quick start guide provides basic information on the operation and features of the Psion Teklogix 7535 G2 hand-held computer.
• Use a Phillips screwdriver to attach the strap to the two threaded inserts at the back of the 7535 G2 at the top of the unit.
• Stretch the handstrap toward the base of the 7535 G2, and hook the bottom of the handstrap into the slot near the base of the battery pack. 1.3 Attaching A Pistol Grip The pistol grip is attached to the back of the 7535 G2 using the four threaded inserts in the upper part of the 7535 G2 casing. Four black #4-40 Phillips head screws are provided with this accessory.
• Position the pistol grip so that it fits snugly over the back of the unit and the inserts on the back of the 7535 G2 align with the holes in the pistol grip. • Use a Phillips screwdriver to securely fasten the pistol grip to the back of the 7535 G2. 1.4 The Battery Important: It is critical that you review “Lithium-Ion Battery Safety Precautions” on page 9 before handling a 7535 G2 battery. The 7535 G2 hand-held operates with a Lithium-Ion battery pack.
1.4.1 Installing The Battery • Slide the charged battery with the contoured plastic facing you into the 7535 G2. • Click the battery into place. 1.4.2 Battery Swap And Runtime Important: Always switch the unit off before changing the battery. While the battery is being replaced, the 7535 G2 will save its current data for at least 20 minutes. The 7535 G2 battery will operate for 8 hours under typical operating conditions after a full charge. Typical battery life is 300 charge cycles or 2 years average use.
A splash screen displaying the Psion Teklogix logo and the Windows CE logo appears followed by the startup desktop. Note: If the 7535 G2 is in suspend state, pressing [ENTER] ‘wakes’ the unit from this state. The screen in which you were working before the computer entered suspend state is displayed. 1.6 Switching The 7535 G2 Off Important: Keep in mind that turning off the 7535 G2 does not result in a complete reboot; rather, the unit enters a power-saving, “suspend” state.
1.7 Connecting To An 802.11 Network In most cases, the 7535 G2 must be configured before it can connect to an 802.11 wireless network. Chapter 2, Section 2.2.2, “Configuring An IEEE 802.11 Radio Installed In The 7535 G2” in the 7535 G2 Hand-Held Computer User Manual (PN 8000075) describes this configuration process.

The 7535 G2 offers two types of keyboard layouts—a 58-key keyboard and a 36-key, large button keyboard. The [BLUE] and [ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and system functions. These functions are colour coded in orange and blue print above the keyboard keys. 2.2.
The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified. Activating Modifier Keys When a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the taskbar at the bottom of the 7535 G2 screen. For example, if the [CTRL] key is pressed, ctrl key is displayed at the bottom of the unit screen.
The [CTRL] And [ALT] Key Modify the function of the next key pressed and are applicationdependent. The [TAB] Key Usually moves the cursor to the next field to the right or downward. The [ESC] Key Generally used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog box or activity and return to the previous one. The [SPACE] Key Inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog box, the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox. The [SCAN] Key Activates the scanner beam while pressed.
Choosing A Single Alpha Character Note: The following examples assume that the [ORANGE] key is enabled as ‘Lock’ mode in the ‘One Shot’ screen (accessible through the Control Panel ‘Keyboard’ icon). In ‘Lock’ mode, pressing the [ORANGE] key once locks it ‘on’. The examples below illustrate how to access A, B and C, all of which are printed in orange characters above the numeric key, [2]. To choose the letter ‘a’: • Press the [ORANGE] key, and press the numeric key [2].
