Booting The Terminal; Suspending And Resuming Operation - Symbol PDT 7500 Series Product Reference Manual

PDT 7500 Series Product Reference Guide for Windows

Booting the Terminal

A warm boot resets the operating system while preserving the program and data in RAM.
This process is similar to pressing the <Ctrl+Alt+Del> keys on a PC. To perform a warm boot,
press and hold the Power key for 6 seconds (default), then release.
Cold booting the terminal generates a system reset, the same as a power-on boot on a
standard PC. To cold boot the terminal, hold down the Power key for 15 seconds (default).
Note: When performing warm and cold boots, the times noted above for
holding the Power key are defaults. Warm and cold boot times can be
configured.

Suspending and Resuming Operation

To suspend or resume operation, press the Power key
can also resume operation from various wakeup sources (if enabled through the application).
The wakeup sources available on the PDT 7500 are listed in
Note: The default for enabling/disabling these wakeup sources depends on
how the terminal is suspended (manual suspend using the Power key
vs. automatic suspend via timeout). An application can also control
the source of a terminal wakeup, overriding the defaults.
