Performing a Cold Boot

A cold boot cuts off power from the PA600, erasing all records and entries, deleting all

added programs, and restoring the PA600 to default factory settings.

Data and time settings are not retained in a cold boot while formats, preferences and

other settings restore to their default factory settings. Not even data stored in Flash

Storage is retained.

NOTE: Only perform a hard reset unless a soft reset does not correct the prob-

lem. Data can restore through the next Microsoft ActiveSync operation,

or it can transfer from a storage card.

Perform a cold boot through the following:

1. Press and hold the FUNC and TAB.

2. While holding FUNC and TAB, insert

the tip of the Stylus into the Reset But-

ton on the PA600’s back panel. Press

and hold the Reset Button until the

Unitech logo appears onscreen. Wait

five seconds and then release FUNC

and TAB.

NOTE: The system returns to the default settings. All registry settings and all

files (including hidden files) return to their original factory defaults.
