[. . . ] When you use Soft RESET you do not lose the Windows CE registry and therefore your data is safe. Contents NOTE: For the soft RESET to work correctly, the screen must be displaying data while the three keys are held down. Take care not to hold the keys down for more than 16 seconds or the unit will perform a hard RESET (as detailed below). Hard RESET Press and hold down the three keys ú÷, úø, and the ù key for between 16 and 32 seconds. When you use Hard RESET you lose the Windows CE registry and all data stored in RAM. For this reason, treat the Hard RESET as an emergency procedure only, and use Soft RESET whenever possible. NOTE: Data stored on PCCards and CompactFlash is not affected by Soft and Hard RESET. Batteries The fex21 is designed for use with either a rechargeable NiMH battery pack or 4 AA-size Alkaline cells. Both types are contained in an appropriate battery holder for ease of removal and replacement. In addition to the main battery pack, a rechargeable backup battery is fitted. It will provide data retention for up to 72 hours if the main battery pack is removed or fully discharged. Whenever working near an AC power outlet, we recommend that you use your fex21 with its AC adapter to conserve power. Whenever the AC adapter is plugged in and switched on, both the main battery and the backup battery are constantly topped up. If your fex21 is fitted with an Alkaline battery pack, you can still use the AC adapter to power the unit, but the battery will not be recharged. NOTE: You should remove the battery pack if you intend to store your fex21 for more than two months. Alkalines will discharge (and rechargeable batteries may degrade) if left inside a stored unit for this length of time. How to check the batteries · · · · Double-click on the My Handheld PC icon. This will open the Husky fex21 Configuration Options box, which has four tabs. This will display information about the battery. Contents Main battery status If the main battery status is shown as High, your battery should not need charging in the next few hours. If the status is shown as Low, you should consider changing or recharging the battery within the next hour or so. However, if the status is shown as Critical, you should change or re-charge the battery immediately. You will not lose the Windows CE registry or any data held in RAM while you change or re-charge the battery. NOTE: if the Ni-MH battery was last charged outside your unit, the `Main Battery Level' percentage displayed will not be entirely accurate. This inaccuracy will be slight if the battery was fully charged (in another unit, or using an external charger) within the last day or two. Fully recharging the battery in your unit will restore the accuracy of the `Main Battery Level' display.
