changes to open files will be lost. Your other files on the internal disk
will almost always be safe.
It is possible (although unlikely) that performing a soft reset after a
program failure may cause the netpad to lose the information on the
internal disk; it could even prevent the reset from working at all. If
this happens, you will have to perform a “hard reset”.
Important: A hard reset resets the netpad completely, and all
information on the Internal disk will be lost.
To perform a hard reset:
1. Remove the netpad from the docking station (if applicable).
2. Remove the main battery.
3. Press and hold down the On/Off button (on the top of the
unit).
4. While continuing to hold down the On/Off button, press and
release the Reset button.
5. Release the On/Off button.
6. Refit the battery into the netpad—the unit will power up and
you will hear one beep during boot-up.
Note: Hard resetting the netpad will delete the partnership on the
netpad. You may delete and re-create the partnership on the
PC, or create another partnership with a new name. Refer to
ActiveSync’s online help for more details on this operation.

window at the bar code, ensuring that the scanner window is not
obstructed and that you are between 5 cm (2 in) and 60 cm (24 in)
from the bar code. Activate the scanner as instructed in the software
