Operating the PDT 6800 Series
To perform a cold boot:
For the 35-Key terminal:
" Power the terminal off
" Press and hold <SPACE>, <FUNC>, and Up Arrow
" Press and release <PWR>
" Release <SPACE>, <FUNC>, and Up Arrow.
For the 46-Key terminal:
" Power the terminal off
" Press and hold <A>, <B>, and <D>
" Press and release <PWR>
" Release <A>, <B>, and <D>.
The terminal displays version information, copyright, RAM size, and installed expanded
memory RAM size. Other information displayed depends on the operating system, installed
device drivers, and AUTOEXEC.BAT commands.
Cold-Boot Failure
During a cold boot, the system briefly displays a status line for each driver as it loads in the
format:
0: Driver #.##
The line shows a status value, usually 0, followed by the name and version number of the
driver. If the system halts at one of these lines and displays a status value other than 0, the
displayed device driver failed to load properly.
If such a failure occurs, try cold booting the terminal again. If this does not solve the problem,
call the Symbol Support Center.
