Safety Precautions Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO Product. Be sure to read the following Safety Precautions before trying to use it for the first time. Markings and Symbols The following are the meanings of the markings and symbols used in these Safety Precautions. Danger This symbol indicates information that, if ignored or applied incorrectly, creates the danger of death or serious personal injury.
Warning Foreign Objects • Should any foreign matter get into the Pocket PC Terminal, immediately turn off the power and contact your original dealer or an authorized CASIO service provider. Continued use creates the danger of fire and electric shock. Dropping and Damage • Should you drop the Pocket PC Terminal and damage it, immediately turn off the power and contact your original dealer or an authorized CASIO service provider. Continued use creates the danger of fire and electric shock.
Caution LCD Screen • Never apply strong pressure to the screen or subject it to strong impact. Doing so can crack the screen or LCD panel glass, which can cause the danger of personal injury. • Should the LCD panel glass break, never touch the liquid inside. Doing so can cause skin inflammation. – Should liquid from the LCD panel accidentally get into your mouth, immediately wash your mouth with water and then consult a physician.
Danger • Never pierce the battery pack with nails, hit it with a hammer, or step on it. Doing so can create the danger of battery pack heat emission, explosion, and fire. • Never try to take apart the battery pack or modify it in any way. Doing so creates the danger of battery pack heat emission, explosion, and fire. • Use only the specified charger unit to charge the battery pack. Use of another type of charger unit creates the danger of battery pack heat emission, explosion, and fire.
Caution • Should fluid from the battery pack accidentally get onto clothing or your skin, immediately rinse it off with clean tap water. Prolonged contact with battery pack fluid can cause skin irritation. • Keep the battery pack out of the reach of small children. Do not let small children remove the battery pack from the charger unit or the Pocket PC Terminal while it is powered on. Backup Battery Handling Warning • Do not charge the battery.
Caution • Never throw the battery, subject it to strong impact. Do not allow the battery to get wet with water. Doing so can create the danger of battery leakage, heat emission, rupture, and fire. • Do not leave the battery in locations subject to strong direct sunlight or in high temperature locations such as in a car. Doing so can create the danger of battery leakage, heat emission, rupture, and fire. • Avoid storing the battery on the direct sunlight or in high temperature and humidity locations.
Caution • Never pull on the power cord when unplugging it. Doing so can damage the cord and create the danger of fire and electric shock. (Always hold onto the plug when unplugging it from the wall outlet.) • Never touch the plug while your hands are wet. Doing so can create the danger of electric shock. • Be sure to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before moving the Pocket PC Terminal.
Operating Precautions The Pocket PC Terminal is a precision digital instrument. Incorrect operation and rough handling can cause data storage problems and other malfunction. Be sure to read the following precautions to ensure proper operation. • Charge the battery pack as soon as possible when they start to become weak. Continued use while power is low can lead to loss of memory data. • Do not leave dead batteries in the Pocket PC Terminal for long periods.

Using a CompactFlash Card The Pocket PC Terminal supports use of the CompactFlash Type I card and Type II card (3.3V). The following describes how to load and replace a CompactFlash card. Important You must remove the Slot 0 card cover when using a laser scanner or another type of card whose use makes it impossible to close the card cover. In such a case, keep the card cover in a safe place so you do not lose it. Be sure to close the card cover when you use the CF storage card.
Loading a Card into Slot 1 Slot 1 is mainly intended for use as a memory expansion slot. Since you have to remove the main battery (battery pack) in order to load or remove a card from Slot 1, you should use it for a card you plan to leave loaded in the Pocket PC Terminal for long periods. Use Slot 0 for cards that require frequent replacement. Also not that certain card shapes may be incompatible with Slot 1.
7. Replace the Slot 1 cover. • Do not push the special tape all the way into the slot. Leave the end sticking out so you can use it the next time you need to remove the card from the slot. 8. Reload the main battery (battery pack), replace the battery pack cover, and slide the battery pack cover release back to the [LOCK] position. When you want to remove the card from Slot 1, pull on the tape you affixed to it.
Using a Laser Scanner Installing an optional Laser Scanner Card (DT-5057CBCR) into the Pocket PC Terminal provides you with the ability to read various types of bar codes. General Guide To the Pocket PC Terminal Bar Code Reader Bundled items Protective Cover Installation Screws (2 silver, 2 black long, 2 black short) Screw Covers Important • Do not touch the bar code reader with your fingers or allow it to become scratched or damaged.
Installing the Laser Scanner Card 1. Remove the Slot 0 card cover. With the card cover opened part way, carefully raise it so the cover’s hooks come out of the holes in the Pocket PC Terminal, and then remove the cover. 2. Insert the Laser Scanner Card into the Pocket PC Terminal. 2 1 3. Use the silver screws to secure the Laser Scanner Card to the Pocket PC Terminal. 4. As shown in the illustration, install the protective cover and secure it in place with screws.
5. Install the screw covers a shown in the illustration. • To remove the screw covers, insert a flat blade screwdriver at the locations indicated by arrows in the illustration. Reading Bar Codes CASIO provides a library of functions to control the laser scanner. Software developers can use these functions to incorporate bar code laser scanning into applications. Contact your CASIO distributor for example bar code scanning software.
Important • If you have a problem reading a bar code, try changing the angle of the label or Pocket PC Terminal, or the distance between them. • The laser scanner can read bar codes from a distance of 60 to 420 mm under the conditions described below. Required Reading Conditions: Ambient Illumination: 500 to 900 lux (fluorescent lighting) PCS: 0.45 to 0.9 Narrowest Bar Thickness: 0.127 to 1.0mm Warning Label • This is a warning label for a Class 2 laser device that conforms to IEC60825-1.
Bar Code Scanning Positions Locate the bar code reader close to the bar code when the bar code is small. For larger bar codes, move the bar code reader further away so the beam can cover the entire bar code. Margin Margin Correct Correct Wrong Correct Wrong Wrong Wrong Warning • Never allow the laser beam to shine directly into your eyes or the eyes of others. • Never look directly into the laser beam.
