2.2 Battery
DOTH-100 uses replaceable 7.4V 1,800mAh Li-ion Cell x2 Li-ion batteries.
If the battery continues to drop to the “ Low Battery Status” , the battery status LED
becomes red and blinks. You need to recharge the battery.
2.2.1 Checking Battery Power
You can check the battery status by using the power applet.
Tap Start > Settings] > Control panel > Power
The power control panel applet displays a battery power gauge.
2.2.2 Very Low Battery Status
To prevent the DORH-100 from being discharged completely, your DORH-100 will be
suspended, when the battery continues to get low. You need to recharge your battery before
the battery continues to drop.
2.3 Removing and installing the battery
2.3.1 Removing the battery
At first, pull out the hand scrap and then press the battery latch to the above until the battery
is released from the DORH-100, then lift it out.
2.3.2 Installing the battery
Insert the bottom of battery into the sunken place located in battery compartment, and press
the battery latch to the above until the battery is installed completely.
2.4 Battery discharging
Several factors determine the life of your battery such as extreme temperatures, input devices,
and your usage, but generally you can use DORH-100 for 6~12hours.
If the DOTH-100 is not on external power and battery pack is removed, it will enter suspend
mode.
2.5 Recharging the battery
Use the adapter provided from DOTel to recharge your battery.
Caution
Your DOTH-100 can be damaged, in case of using the adapter that is not provided from DOTel.
2.5.1 Using the adapter
The charge/operating power can be applied to DOTH-100 by using DC adapter.

If it is not firmly seated, battery charging and communication with the Host PC will NOT be
initiated.
2.6 Backup Battery
The backup battery in the PDA is a 100mAh rechargeable battery that holds system data at
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.

4. Resetting the DOTH-100
When the DOTH-100 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 Soft reset before initiating a Hard 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 Soft Reset
When you should perform the soft reset?
When you cannot turn on or off a program, or execute other programs because of “ hang”-
the system error that stops responding. The “ soft reset” for recovering the DOTH-100 is to
press R/S button on the front of DOTH-100. This method not guarantee that cashed disk data
will be saved, so transactional data maybe lost during the reset.
Procedure to Soft Reset. To initialize soft reset, press and hold the <Reset> key.
After Soft 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 DOTH-100 system and restores them to their factory-default
state.
This will erase the memory in the DOTH-100, 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.
DOTH-100 User Reference

• You will be asked to recalibrate the touch screen. Press the <ESC> key to circumvent
recalibration.
• 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.
• The application saved in Flash Disk will not be deleted after cold reset (refer to section 5
Flash Disk)
5. Flash Disk
In addition to the RAM-based storage standard on Windows CE .NET terminals, the DOTH-
100 is also equipped with a Flash Disk, and all the application and data in the Flash Disk can
be persisted in its own condition after the hard reset. From this point of view, it is a kind of
very useful method to keep important application and execute user’ s own application
automatically after the hard reset.
5.1 Hard reset
1. At first copy an execute file you want to re-execute.
2. Double-tap My Device > Flash Disk > Open Start folder >Open Hard Reset folder
3. Paste the copied file in the Hard Reset Folder.
