Starting The Pdt 8100; Aligning The Screen - Symbol PDT 8100 Series Product Reference Manual

Starting the PDT 8100

After installing and charging the battery, start the terminal by pressing the red power button
(see Figure 1-17). If the terminal does not power on, reset it. See Performing a Cold Boot
on page 2-31.
As the terminal initializes its unique Flash File System, the Symbol splash screen displays
for about 10 seconds. When the Welcome screen appears, tap anywhere on the screen to
continue to the Align screen. Note that these screens also appear every time you perform
a cold boot.

Aligning the Screen

To align your PDT 8100 so the cursor on the touch screen aligns with the tip of your stylus:
1. If necessary, adjust the contrast (monochrome LCD only) on the PDT 8100 so the
screen is readable. See Adjusting the Contrast (Monochrome LCD) on page 2-4.
2. Remove the stylus from its storage silo on the back of the PDT 8100.
