Turning the PA982 on for the First Time
After you have initially charged your device for about 16 hours, the device is ready to
be used. You can now start up your device where you’ll adjust the screen brightness,
calibrate the display, and set up the system time zone, date and time.
Powering On
1. Turn on your device by pressing the power
button on the front panel.
NOTE: The PA982 screen ships with a pro-
tective plastic film. You may remove
this if desired by peeling from one
corner. The screen will be more sus-
ceptible to scratching without the
film, but will be more readable.
2. The Unitech PA982 welcome screen
appears for a moment followed by the cali-
bration screen.
Calibrating the PA982 Screen
The calibrate screen automatically appears when the unit is powered-on for the first
time or after the system is reset.
This screen will automatically appear when the
