Switching On The Unit & Configuring The Radio

Psion Teklogix 8525/8530 Vehicle-Mount Computer User Manual

To switch off the 8525:

• Press the [BLUE] key, and then press the [ENTER/ON] key.

Turning off the 8525/8530 does not

result in a complete reboot; rather, the unit

enters a power-saving, “suspend” state. When the 8525/8530 is turned on from

suspend state, operation resumes within a few seconds.

Important: If the word ‘BLUE’ is displayed in uppercase

in the taskbar

at the bottom of the screen, this key is locked ‘on’ – the 8525/8530

will not switch off. Press the [BLUE] key again

to unlock it; then press [BLUE] [ENTER/ON] to switch the

8525 off.

If, however, you’ve disabled the “Blue Key” in the ‘One Shot’

dialog box (see “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 81), the

8525 can be turned off even when the [BLUE] key is locked ‘on’.

Switching The 8530 On And Off

• Press the [ON/OFF] switch on right side of the 8530 to turn the unit on

and off,

Press the [ENTER/ON] key on the keyboard to turn on the 8530, and press

[BLUE] [ENTER/ON] to turn off the unit.

Note: Pressing the 8530 ON/OFF switch or using the [BLUE][ENTER/ON] key

combination does not result in a complete reboot. The unit enters ‘sus-

pend’ state until it is switched on.
