PRECAUTIONS
• Always exercise care when operang and handling the DT311YR.
• Do NOT apply excessive pressure to the display screen.
• We recommend using the Digital Pen (oponal) to keep the screen clean.
• Avoid prolonged exposure of the display panel to any strong heat source.
Wherever possible, the DT311YR should face away from direct light to reduce
glare.
• If the AC-DC power adapter is used to recharge or power the tablet, do NOT
use any AC-DC adapter other than the one provided or acquired from the
manufacturer or its partners.
• In the unlikely event that smoke, abnormal noise, or strange odor is present,
immediately power o the DT311YR and disconnect all power sources. Report
the problem to your device provider immediately.
• Never aempt to disassemble the DT311YR, as this will void the warranty.
BASIC FEATURES
The DT311YR rugged tablet integrates a bright display, USB ports, and embedded
networking elements such as wireless LAN or oponal 4G.
A DT311YR typically integrates an 802.11ac wireless LAN (WLAN) adapter that may
connect to other wireless devices or access points. If your DT311YR does not come
with such a network adapter, please consult your device provider to establish the
desired network connecvity.
NOTE:
To obtain protecon consistent with any IP rang for the device, the I/O (audio,
power, USB, card reader, etc.) port doors must be closed. If the IP protecon is
compromised by mishandling or misuse, such as by leaving port doors open or
improperly closed, any resulng product damage will not be covered under any
DT Research warranty.

OPERATION
Powering ON and OFF
To acvate the DT311YR, push and quickly release the Power Buon. The display will
come on in a few seconds. To put the DT311YR in Standby mode, push and quickly
release the Power Buon. To turn the DT311YR o for extended storage, power
o safely using any soware funcon that “shuts down computer” provided in the
soware operang system.
NOTE:
The baery pack shipped with your tablet may be low in power—please use
the AC-DC adapter with the DT311YR when seng up for the rst me to fully
charge the baery pack, or use the oponal baery charger kit.
NOTE:
When the baery pack is charging, the blue-colored Baery LED should blink
slowly. If plugging in the AC-DC adapter does not trigger this blinking acvity
and the LED stays dark, the baery pack(s) may have been drained substanally.
Try unplugging/ replugging the AC-DC adapter to the DT311YR a few mes to
acvate the charging process.
NOTE:
To conserve power, use (push and quick release) the Power Buon to put the
tablet in “Standby” mode while not in use. Pushing briey on the same buon
will wake up the system within seconds.
NOTE:
For DT311YR, avoid using the Power Buon (“hold 4+ seconds” feature) to turn
o the tablet—this form of hardware shutdown is intended to be a means of
recovery from lockups, and not as normal operaon.

Start Up
If the power up (from Standby mode or otherwise) is successful, the appropriate
interface will be displayed aer a launch sequence of several seconds. The wireless
LAN connecon may take 10-15 seconds to be established.
Configuring the Mobile Tablet
The DT311YR may be congured using the ulies and methods dictated by
the soware operang system. The DT311YR should be congurable for various
properes such as user proles, network features, and several system elements.
Wireless Networking
Wireless LAN
The DT311YR is oen delivered with an embedded (user-inaccessible) 802.11ac
WLAN adapter equipped with a hidden custom antenna.
• Through the support of typical WLAN adapters, the DT311YR should be able to
detect all 802.11 access points in the vicinity for you to select the access point of
your choice for connecon.
• The SSID and WEP/WPA/WPA2 (if enabled) parameters on the DT311YR and the
access points have to match. The SSID is case-sensive and it is recommended
that you enable WEP/WPA/WPA2 encrypon (or advanced alternaves) for
secure access.
• When WEP/WPA/WPA2 is enabled, you may need to consult your network
administrator or your networking equipment literature to properly congure
associated sengs such as Authencaon mode, etc.
• Refer to the access point operang manuals for seng up the 802.11 access
points.

Peripherals Support
Through its USB ports, the DT311YR supports a wide range of USB-based peripherals.
These peripherals are applicable for soware installaon, applicaons storage, data
storage, and system soware recovery and updates.
If the DT311YR comes with a Mobile broadband module, please contact your product
and/or service provider for the SIM Card installaon procedures.

Federal Communication Commission Interference
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protecon against harmful interference in a residenal
installaon. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instrucons, may
cause harmful interference to radio communicaons. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a parcular installaon. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television recepon,
which can be determined by turning the equipment o and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separaon between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Cauon: Any changes or modicaons not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this
equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operaon is subject to the following two condions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operaon.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operang in conjuncon
with any other antenna or transmier.
This Class [B] digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe [B] est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du
Canada.
Battery Usage and Maintenance
DT Research tablets and laptops are powered by lithium polymer baery packs in
proprietary form factors. Baery conguraons for the DT Research devices include
internal (bridge or backup), removable or swappable implementaons.
Baery usage cycles, or duraon between necessary re-charge, vary with a number
of factors, including device model, device usage paern and baery health/aging.
The DTR baery packs may be charged while aached to the device or when sepa-
rated from the device and docked in proprietary baery charging cradles. Following
the guidelines on good pracce below can help to keep a baery pack healthy and
prolong baery usage cycles and baery lifespan.
• Avoid high heat condions during operaon, idle, charging, and storage states.
• Avoid leng the baery pack remain in very highly charged state or overly low
charged state for extensive periods of me. Keeping the baery capacity between
30% and 80% of maximum capacity is recommended. The prevailing baery level(s)
can be read from the Baery ulity within the Windows operang system.
• Avoid leng the baery be over-discharged or depleted. Over-discharge can occur
when a fully-discharged (0% level or thereabouts) baery pack is allowed to remain
in such a state for an extended period of me (weeks or months). The embedded
baery controls enter a protecon mode and recharging will be prevented for
safety reasons. To reduce the likelihood of over-discharge, consider recharging idle
baeries regularly to some level between 30%-80% of capacity.
• For long term storage, it is recommended that removable baery packs be stored
separated from the device. Otherwise, the system should be placed in Shutdown
mode. The baery level will decrease with me and it is recommended that the bat-
tery packs be monitored or recharged every 2-3 months to maintain baery health.
The targeted baery level should be within 30% to 80% of maximum capacity.
