6. BATTERY & RESET
(Quotation from E-200 Hardware Manual)
6-1. Batteries
The unit is powered by a dual power supply that consists of a main battery (rechargeable battery pack) and a
backup battery (CR2032 lithium battery).
Main (Backup) Battery
Recharge (Replace) the battery pack (backup battery) as soon as possible after the following message appears.
"Main (Backup) Batteries Very Low
To prevent possible data loss, replace or recharge the main batteries according to the owner’s manual."
If unit power turns off due to insufficient power or sudden power drain by a Storage card, the following warning
message appears on the display the next time it is turned on unit power.
"Warning
Due to high current demand by the hardware, the system powered down in order to protect memory
contents..."
Be sure to observe the following important battery handling precautions. Failure to do so can cause
batteries to leak, resulting in damage to surrounding items and create the danger of fire and electrical
shock.
• Use only the types of batteries specified for use with this unit.
• Charge the battery pack in an area where the temperature is between 10 °C (50 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F).
Charging in areas that are very cold or exposed to direct sunlight can cause deterioration and leaking
of the battery pack.
• To avoid deterioration and leaking, the battery pack is designed to discharge even when it is not
used. Be sure to recharge the battery pack at least once every three months, regardless of how
much it is used the unit during that time.
6-2. Reset
"Reset" is similar to a computer reboot. Performing a reset deletes any data that is in the process of being input
or edited, without yet being saved. Data stored in memory and all settings, however, are retained.
Perform the reset operation whenever the unit fails to operate correctly due to operational error or some other
abnormality. Any of the following symptoms indicate that reset is required.
• If the unit does not respond when the screen is tapped or pressed a button
• If the icon that indicates a procedure is in progress remains on the display for a long time
Normally the reboot-type reset does not delete data in internal memory. If corrupted data is discovered,
however, all data stored in memory will be deleted.
Performing a Reset
1. Use the stylus to press the reset button.
• The unit performs a reset followed by a memory check operation.
If no data error is found, the following two screens appear on the display in succession.
• Startup screen
• Today screen
2. Normal unit operation is possible after the desktop appears.
• Memory data and settings are retained when the Pocket PC is reset.
If the above operation does not solve the problem, perform a full reset (Memory Initialize, page 16).
