least 2 hours without main battery.
CAUTION
If you remove the battery or the battery completely discharges, there is a two(2)hour window
in which to insert a charged battery before the backup battery completely discharges and the
contents of the RAM memory are lost. It is a good idea to keep your data and applications in
Flask Disk for that reason. Refer to “ Flash Disk” for more information.
If both the battery pack and the backup battery are allowed to discharge completely, you
must recharge both batteries for thirteen (13) hours.
The backup battery is charged off the battery pack, so it is important to keep the battery pack
with at least a minimal charge so the unit can maintain date, time, data, and other settings.
2.7 Disposal of spent battery
When the battery reaches the end of its useful life, the spent battery should be disposed by a
qualified recycler or material handler

AT570W
4. Resetting the PDA
When the AT-570W completely stops responding for your command, or an application is
locked up and does not respond, and when you want to upgrade the firmware, it may be
necessary to perform a reset.
Caution
Always attempt a Warm reset before initiating a Cold reset. Once you initiate a cold reset, all
applications are forcibly closed and working RAM and files are cleared.
It is a good idea to store important data in the resident (Flash Disk) for this reason.
Warning
Do not use force or a sharp object like paper clip to press the reset button. Use the stylus for
that purpose. Sharp object like paper clip could puncture the seal of the reset key.
4.1 Warm Reset
When you should perform the warm reset?
When you cannot turn on or off a program, or execute other programs because of
“hang” -the system error that stops responding. The “ warm reset” for recovering the
AT-570W is to press R/S button on the front of AT-570W. This method not guarantee that
cashed disk data will be saved, so transactional data maybe lost during the reset.
Procedure to Warm Reset. To initialize warm reset, press and hold the <Reset> key.
After Warm Reset
• The splash screen will appear shortly.
• The desktop appears with the application shortcuts on the screen.
• The custom settings in the registry are persistent.
• The RF Network PC Card if present, connects to the network system.
4.2 Hard Reset (cold reset)
When you should perform the cold reset?
If the performed reset method fails to restore system operation, it may be necessary to
perform a hard reset. This is a boot method that formats the object store to clean data and
registry information from the AT-570W system and restores them to their factory-default
state.
This will erase the memory in the AT-570W, including all applications and data files found in
the object store (user store).
A Hard reset is a complete reset of the PDA in which all applications are forcibly closed and
working RAM and files are cleared.
Hard Reset Procedure. To perform a Hard reset, simultaneously press the <Reset> key with
the stylus while pressing the <power> key.
After Hard Reset.
When a PDA goes through the Hard reset sequence, it clears the working RAM and initializes
the file system.
• The splash screen will appear shortly.
• You will be asked to recalibrate the touch screen. Press the <ESC> key to circumvent
