    2.4.1 The Battery The Omnii is powered by a Lithium-ion Smart Battery pack, 5000 mAh — Model ST3001. Important: Before charging the battery, it is critical that you review the battery safety guide- lines in the Omnii Hand-Held Computer Regulatory & Warranty Guide (PN 8000191).
  • Page 29: Switching The Omnii On And Off

    When the unit is turned off, normally it automatically enters a power-saving, “suspend” state. When the Omnii is switched on from the suspend state, operation resumes within a few seconds in the screen in which you were working prior to turning the computer off.
  • Page 30: Boot To Boost

    Important: This procedure is recommended as a last resort, when all other methods fail. To execute a hard reset: • Remove the battery. • Using a coin, or other conductive item, connect pins 5 and 6 of the Omnii battery contacts for at least six seconds. Pin 6 Pin 5 •...

  • Page 34 Data Transfer Between Omnii and a PC ........
  • Page 35: Operating System

    The Suspend Threshold adjustment in the Power Properties tab allows you to determine the battery capac- ity at which the Omnii will be shut down. If left at the default value, Maximum Operating Time, the unit will run until the battery is completely empty; the RAM is only backed up for a short period of time. If you choose Maximum Backup Time, the Omnii shuts off with more energy left in the battery so RAM can be backed up for a longer period of time.
  • Page 36: The Keyboard

    Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii The Keyboard Normally it takes 3 to 4 hours to charge a battery. The Omnii intelligent charging system protects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at maximum capacity.
  • Page 37: The Power Button (55-Key And 66-Key Keyboards Only)

    The [SCAN] Key The Omnii is equipped with a single [SCAN] key on the keyboard and an extra [SCAN] button located on the left side of the unit. [SCAN] keys activate the scanner beam. For units that do not have internal scanners, these keys can be remapped to serve other functions.
  • Page 38: Modifier Keys

    Note: Modifier keys are remapped using the Scancode Remapping applet. The Symbol SIP will automatically display and use the new mappings after the next reboot. The onscreen keyboard corresponds to the specific keyboard on your Omnii — either numeric or alphanu- meric. The sample below reflects an alphanumeric keyboard layout.
  • Page 39: Locking Modifier Keys

    3.3.4 Function Keys and Macro Keys In addition to the standard keyboard functions, the Omnii supports function keys and macro keys. All function keys and macro keys can be custom defined for each application. The Open TekTerm applica- tion utilizes these keys (for detailed information, see the Open TekTerm Software User Manual, PN 8000073).
  • Page 40: Macro Keys

    Important: Refer to “Macro Keys” on page 133 for details about creating macros. Several of the Omnii keyboards are equipped with a series of macro keys that can be programmed to replace frequently used keystrokes, along with the function of executable keys like the [ENTER/Power] key, the [BACKSPACE] key, any function key and arrow key, etc.
  • Page 41: The Keypad Backlight

    Note: To choose the second, third or fourth alpha character assigned to a numeric key, you may want to lock the [FN] key ‘on’. Remember that depending on how your Omnii is set up in the ‘One Shots’ tab, you may find that you need to press the [FN] key twice to lock it ‘on’. Refer to “OneShots”...

    Quad Docking Station – Model No. ST4004 Quad Docking Station – Model No. ST4004 Important: The quad docking station is shipped with its own quick start guide — Omnii ST4004 Quad Docking Station Quick Start Guide (PN 8000222). It is critical that it be reviewed for additional information and updates.
  • Page 221: Quad Docking Station Operation

    Check with a qualified electrician if you are uncertain of your receptacle grounding. The ST4004 supplies DC power to enable the Omnii internal fast charger. Normally, a full charge of the battery will take from 3 to 4 hours.

  • Page 225: Insertion And Removal Of Omnii

    Insertion and Removal of Omnii If your Omnii is equipped with a cover, or the ST6025 double loop hand strap, these accessories need to be removed before installing the unit in a vehicle cradle. There is no need to remove other handstraps or pistol grips from the unit.
  • Page 226: Maintaining The Vehicle Cradle

    Two latches in the cradle hold Omnii firmly in place. Although these latches are designed for at least 100,000 insertion and removal cycles, they will wear over time and will no longer lock Omnii securely in the cradle. For replacement parts and instructions contact Psion. Partial disassembly is required.
  • Page 227: Wiring Guidelines

    For a diagram of a power with communications setup, see “Connecting ST1002 to vehicle power and com- munications in a typical setup” on page 215. The Omnii charging LED (see “Battery Charge Status LED” on page 30) indicates that external power is available, and it also indicates the charging status of the internal battery.
  • Page 228: Extreme Wet Environments

    Keep in mind that Omnii will continue to operate with or without vehicle power as long as its battery has sufficient charge. If an unfused power source must be used, a fuse assembly (PN 19440-300) must be added to the extension power cable (the fuse and instructions are supplied with the cable).
  • Page 229 Note: The serial port is 5 VDC, 1 A maximum power out and is defaulted to off. To enable power to this port, in your Omnii desktop, go to Start>Settings>System>Scanners, which opens the Scanner Settings menus. In the Ports menu, select ON for the Power parameter under the COM6 port.

    Battery Charger (6-Slot) - Model ST3006 Battery Charger (6-Slot) - Model ST3006 The ST3006 is designed to charge up to six Omnii lithium-ion batteries at one time. Important: The battery charger is shipped with its own quick start guide — ST3006 6-Slot Battery Charger Quick Start Guide (PN 8000204).
  • Page 231: Operator Controls

    All charge indicators flash momentarily at power up to indicate that the charger is ready for operation. If you choose to wall mount the charger, detailed installation instructions are included in the Omnii 6-Slot Battery Charger ST3006 Quick Start Guide (PN 8000204) included with the charger kit. Be sure to locate the charger in an area where there is no risk of injury to persons walking in the vicinity.
  • Page 232: Power Self-Test Leds Don't Light Up

    Inspect the charge slot contacts for damage (are they bent, flattened, twisted or broken). • Try inserting a battery that you know to be working in the charger slot. • Reconnect the mains power cable, and check that the slot indicator flashes at power up.
