Resetting Your V481 Computer
Reset button
It may be necessary to reset the system if the computer stops responding or an application locks up.
The reset button is located on the V481’s outer casing. After pressing the “Reset” button, the
computer will boot up automatically.
Reset to factory default
The V481 embedded computer is based on Windows CE 5.0 and uses a CompactFlash card for the
internal file system. The WinCE 5.0 supports the FAT file system.
If you find that files, directories, or the FAT table are damaged because of an unstable power
supply or application issues, then you will need to reset to factory defaults. To do this, power on
the V481 computer, and then press “8” when you see the Windows CE startup screen. System
prompts will guide you through the step-by-step reset procedure.
Step1: Scan Disk (Automatically)
The system will scan the disk automatically when you start the reset procedure.
Step2: Are you sure you want to reset the system configuration to default values? (Y/N)
After the disk scan is complete, the system will ask you to confirm that you want to reset to defaults.
Press “Y” to reset to defaults. This will revert all settings to the factory default values.
Step3: Are you sure you want to delete all files and directories? (Y/N)
You will be asked whether you want to delete all files and directories. Press “Y” if you would like
to delete all files in the “Program Files” directory.
Step4: Proceed? (Y/N)
You will be asked to confirm. Press “Y” to proceed to the reset process.
NOTE: After the disk scan finishes, you may find some files named “FILE00xx.chk,” which
means that some files or directories were damaged and have been fixed.
