Resetting the Terminal

If the terminal stops responding to input, reset it.
Performing a Soft Reset
A soft reset restarts the terminal and saves all stored records and
entries.
Caution: Files that remain open during a soft reset may not be
retained.
DO NOT perform a soft reset if the terminal is suspend-
ed. Press the power button to wake the terminal.
To perform a soft reset on the Standard 6-key keypad, press the
Enter and
trigger and then releasing the keys.
To perform a soft reset on the 15-key keypad, press
keys while holding down either the left or right scan trigger
and then releasing the keys.
Performing a Hard Reset
A hard reset also restarts the terminal, but erases all stored
records and entries. Therefore, never perform a hard reset unless
a soft reset does not solve the problem.
Note: You can restore any data previously synchronized with
a computer during the next ActiveSync operation. See
the PPT 8800 Series Product Reference Guide.
