Restriction On Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive 2002/95/EC

What is RoHS?

The European Union has mandated that high environmental standards be met in the design and manufacture of electronic and electrical products sold in Europe, to reduce hazardous substances from entering the environment. The “Restriction on Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS)” prescribes the maximum trace levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardants

PBB and PBDE that may be contained in a product. Only products meeting these high environmental standards may be “placed on the market” in EU member states after July 1, 2006.

RoHS Logo

Although there is no legal requirement to mark RoHS-compliant products, Psion Teklogix Inc. indicates its compliance with the directive as follows:

The RoHS logo located either on the back of the product or under-

neath the battery in the battery compartment (or on a related accessory such as the charger or docking station) signifies that the product is RoHS-compliant as per the EU directive. Other than as noted below, a Psion Teklogix product that does not have an accompanying RoHS logo signifies that it was placed on the EU market prior to

July 1, 2006, and is thereby exempt from the directive.

Note: Not all accessories or peripherals will have a RoHS logo due to physical space limitations or as a result of their exempt status.

Disclaimer

Every effort has been made to make this material complete, accurate, and up-to-date. In addition, changes are periodically added to the information herein; these changes will be incorporated into new editions of the publication.

Psion Teklogix Inc. reserves the right to make improvements and/or changes in the product(s) and/or the program(s) described in this document without notice, and shall not be responsible for any damages, including but not limited to consequential damages, caused by reliance on the material presented, including but not limited to typographical errors.

1. Basic Preparation

Important: It is important that you review all safety guidelines

described under “Lithium-Ion Battery Safety Precautions” on page 8 before charging a battery.

This quick start guide provides basic information on the operation and features of the Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer.

For more detailed information, refer to the 7530 G2 Hand-Held

Computer User Manual, or the documentation supplied with the application you are using.

Typically, 7530 G2 hand-helds are configured at the factory and arrive ready for use. Although the 7530 G2 is equipped with an internal Compact Flash and SD I/O slot, these slots are not intended for user modification. If a device needs to be changed or added in these slots, contact qualified Psion Teklogix personnel.

1.1 Charging The Battery

Batteries shipped from the factory are not charged. They must be fully charged prior to use. Full capacity may not be reached until at least 5 full charge/discharge cycles have been performed.

Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide 17

1.2 Attaching The Hand Strap

Important: Do not use adhesives such as Loctite to secure the screws on the carrying accessories. These chemicals may damage the plastic casing.

Two Phillips head screws are provided with the hand strap.

• Use a Phillips screwdriver to attach the strap to the two threaded inserts at the back of the 7530 G2 at the top of the unit.

18 Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide

2.2 The Battery

The 7530 G2 hand-held operates with a Lithium-Ion battery pack.

Preparing the hand-held unit for operation requires that a battery pack be charged and installed in the unit.

Important: Before charging or using the battery pack, it is criti-

cal that the safety information on page 8 be reviewed

and that all warnings are strictly followed.

2.2.1 Battery Swap And Runtime

Important: Always switch the unit off before changing the battery. While the battery is being replaced, the 7530 G2 will save its current data for at least 20 minutes.

The 7530 G2 battery will operate for ten hours under typical operating conditions after a full charge. Typical battery life is 300 cycles or

2 years average use. A full charge is completed in 4 hours with a typical charge time of 1.5 hours.

24 Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide

2.3 The Keyboard

The 7530 G2 offers two types of keyboard layouts – a 63-key keyboard and a large button, 37-key keyboard.

The [BLUE] and [ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and system functions. These functions are colour coded in orange and blue print above the keyboard keys.

2.3.1 Modifier Keys

The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [BLUE] and [ORANGE] keys are modifier keys. Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed. For example, on a 63-key keyboard, a square bracket is printed in orange print above the [5] key. Pressing the

[ORANGE] key followed by the [5] key displays a square bracket rather than the number 5.

The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.

Activating Modifier Keys

When a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the taskbar at the bottom of the 7530 G2 screen. For example, if the [CTRL] key is pressed, ctrl key is displayed at the bottom of the unit screen. Once the next key is pressed, the modifier key becomes inactive and disappears from the taskbar.

Locking Modifier Keys

When a modifier key is pressed twice, it is ‘locked’ on. A ‘locked’ modifier key is displayed in uppercase letters in the taskbar. For example, pressing the [BLUE] key twice locks it on – it is displayed as

BLUE KEY

in the taskbar at the bottom of the computer screen.

The locked modifier key will remain active until it is pressed a third time to unlock or turn it off.

Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide 25

2.3.2 The Keys

The [SHIFT] Key

Used to display uppercase alpha characters and provide access to the symbols above the numeric keys.

The Arrow Keys

Move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow – up, down, left and right.

The [BKSP/DEL] Key

Moves the cursor one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke.

[DEL] key ([BLUE] [BKSP]) erases the character at the cursor position.

The [CTRL] And [ALT] Key

Modify the function of the next key pressed and are application dependent.

The [TAB] Key

Usually moves the cursor to the next field to the right or downward.

The [ESC] Key

Generally used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog box or activity and return to the previous one.

The [SPACE] Key

Inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog box, the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox.

The [SCAN] Key

Activates the scanner beam while pressed. For units without internal scanners, this key is inoperable.

2.7.1 Scanning Techniques

Note: The scanning techniques described here apply to internal and external scanners.

• Hold the scanner at an angle. Do not hold it perpendicular to the bar code.

• Do not hold the scanner directly over the bar code. In this position, light can reflect back into the scanner’s exit window and prevent a successful decode.

• Scan the entire bar code. If you are using a 1D or 2D scanner, make certain that the scan beam crosses every bar and space on the bar code, including the margins on either end of the symbol.

• If you are using a 2D imaging scanner, make certain the red, oval-shaped framing mark is centered within the bar code you want to scan.

• When using imaging scanners, do not move the scanner while decoding the bar code. Movement blurs the image.

Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer Quick Reference Guide 39

• Hold the scanner farther away for larger bar codes.

• Hold the scanner closer for bar codes with bars that are close together.

2.7.2 Scan LED Indicators

The 7530 G2 scanner LED (the lower-left LED) indicates whether or

not your scan is successful. Refer to “LEDs” on page 32 for details.

A bar code icon appears on the screen during a scan. While the scanner beam is active, the onscreen message states – SCANNING. If the scan is successful, the bar code data is displayed on the screen until the scan button (or pistol trigger) is released.

5. General Maintenance

5.1 Caring For The Touchscreen

The touchscreen can be permanently damaged by harsh chemicals and is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. Using sharp objects on the touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic or crack the internal conductive coating.

Protect the touchscreen from the following chemicals:

• mustard, ketchup

• sodium hydroxide,

• concentrated caustic solutions,

• benzyl alcohol, and

• concentrated acids.

If touchscreens are used in harsh environments, apply disposable screen protectors to dramatically extend the life of the touchscreen.

5.2 Cleaning The 7530 G2

Important: Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild detergent to wipe the unit clean.

• Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit.

• Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals for cleaning. The 7530 G2 has a plastic case that is susceptible to harsh chemicals. The plastic is partially soluble in oils, mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic slowly decomposes in strong alkaline solutions.

To clean ink marks from the keypad and touchscreen, use isopropyl alcohol.
