Section 2 Operation " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " This section tells you how to: " " " Charge the battery “Power-up” your 600 Series Industrial Mobile Computer Install CompactFlash cards Getting Started Unpack your 600 Series Industrial Mobile Computer and inspect it for signs of physical damage from shipment or storage. When you start using your computer or any time that all power has been completely removed, you are “cold booting” it.
SECTION 2 Operation Charging the Battery Charging your battery pack can be done either in a dock or using an ac wall charger connected to your computer. Figure 2-1 on page 2-2 shows your computer being connected to an ac charger. Figure 2-2 on page 2-3 shows the computer and explains the Power Status conditions that you might see during the charging process. Normal time to recharge your battery pack is four hours. When your battery is fully charged your computer should run about 8--10 hours.
SECTION 2 Operation Power Status LED Power Status: Blinking Red indicates low battery status Continuous Red indicates charging in process Continuous Green indicates charging complete Blinking Green indicates computer is in standby mode Off indicates normal operation Figure 2-2 Power Status LED NORAND R 600 Series Industrial Mobile Computer User’s Guide 2-3
SECTION 2 Operation Installing CompactFlash Card (Models 602 and 603) Card slot CompactFlash card Figure 2-3 Accessing the CompactFlash Card Slot 2-4 NORAND R 600 Series Industrial Mobile Computer User’s Guide
SECTION 2 Operation Removing the CompactFlash Card Use the tip of your stylus, inserted in the slot and under the edge on the CompactFlash card, to slide the card out enough to get ahold of it and pull straight out on the card slot.
SECTION 2 Operation Installing a Modem Card The modem card installs in the same slot and in the same manner as the CompactFlash card. Booting Your Computer For DOS Applications 1. Apply power by pressing the [I/O] (Resume/Suspend) key or pressing the reset keys ([Gold], [Esc], [0]) simultaneously and holding for three seconds. The Power Status LED will light. 2. The default load on the card displays these choices: 1. NorandR Utilities 2. DOS Command Prompt.
SECTION 2 Operation HIMEM.SYS is installed by MS-DOS during CONFIG.SYS processing, is currently required by LOADCEPC.EXE, and provides real-mode access to memory above one MB. 3. LOADCEPC.EXE is executed during the AUTOEXEC.BAT processing. On the 602 Computer, Windows CE itself consists of the NK.BIN binary file that contains the memory image of the Windows CE configuration. LOADCEPC.EXE copies this file image into RAM and then jumps to its starting address. 4. After NK.
SECTION 2 Operation that is stored in flash memory. Erasing the registry allows the system to use registry changes incorporated in the new Windows CE release. " NOTE: Upgrading flash erases the registry and destroys previous settings. Perform the following steps: 1. System format a PC Card with MS-DOS 6.22 or 7.00. This requires a machine running DOS or Windows 95. You will not be able to system format a PC Card under Windows NT with MS-DOS. Place the appropriate HIMEM.SYS in the root directory.
SECTION 2 Operation Running Windows CE and the Demo Application Do the following to run the demo application using the Windows CE operating system: 1. Simultaneously press and hold the [GOLD], and [Esc], and [0] keys for at least 3 seconds to reset the 602 Computer. 2. Calibrate the touch screen. You may have to calibrate the screen several times until the calibration applet detects a “good” calibration within its tolerance limits.
