Switching Omnii Off
• To switch off Omnii, press the [FN] key and then press and release the
[ENTER/Power] button. Omnii will automatically enter the Suspend state.
2.4 Resetting Omnii
To perform a warm or cold reset, you can access the menu by going to Start>Shutdown. Al-
ternatively you can use the keyboard shortcuts described below.
Important: If your Omnii fails to power up, consider the following troubleshooting
options:
The battery may be overheated (>60C°), a non-Psion Teklogix battery may
be installed, or the battery may have fallen below the configured Suspend
Threshold. See “Suspend Threshold and Estimated Battery Backup” on
page 117 for details.
To switch on the hand-held, you will need to replace the overheated battery.
However, if you supply AC power to Omnii with a battery that falls below
the configured Suspend Threshold, the unit will
switch on.
Important: Turning off the hand-held does not result in a complete shutdown; rather,
the unit enters a power-saving, “suspend” state. When Omnii is turned on
from suspend state, operation resumes within a few seconds.
Important: If the word ‘FN’ is displayed underlined in the taskbar area at the bottom
of the screen, this key is locked “on” and Omnii will not switch off. Press
the [FN] key twice followed by [ENTER/Power] to switch Omnii off.
However, if you’ve set the mode to “Lock” (see “Keyboard One Shot
Modes” on page 102), Omnii can be turned off even when the [FN] key is
locked ‘on’.
Note: If your Desktop is switched to the PsionVU Shell (refer to “The PsionVU Desktop
Shell” on page 76), resetting the unit is done solely by use of the keyboard
shortcuts.
