continue with your work. (This assumes that you have purchased
additional PowerBoot Modules.)
When turned off, the unit saves enough power that you can swap the
battery without triggering a hard reset if you can swap in the new
PowerBoot Module within a couple of minutes. If the saved power
runs out before the new PowerBoot is connected, the unit will
perform a hard reset when the PowerBoot Module is reattached. All
data, configuration, drivers and settings not saved in Built-in
Storage or on a flash memory card will be lost. Therefore, it is
strongly recommended that you perform a Sprite Backup before
swapping the PowerBoot Module. See the Backup and Restore
section for more information.
To change a PowerBoot Module, perform the following steps:
1. Back up your data to Built-in Storage using the pre-installed
Sprite Backup program. (See information on Backup and
Restore).
2. Press the Power key and turn the unit
on
. (The unit will
automatically turn itself off when you loosen the screws in step
4.)
3. Remove the hand strap from the unit.
4. Using a screwdriver, a coin, or the flat head of the stylus,
unlock the 2 screws on the PowerBoot Module by turning them
counter-clockwise until the PowerBoot can be removed.
Unscrewing the screws turns the unit off and puts it in a special
state that prevents it from turning on during alarms and
notifications.
5. Remove the PowerBoot Module by taking it out of the unit.
6. Quickly insert the new PowerBoot Module onto the unit.
7. Screw the PowerBoot Module securely into place by turning
the 2 screws clockwise until they are fastened.
8. Replace the hand strap.
9. Press the Power key and turn the unit on.
NOTE: The screws MUST be tightened before turning the unit on
or data could be lost.
