Precauons
Always exercise care when operang and handling the DT312.
•
Do NOT apply excessive pressure to the display screen.
•
We recommend using the Stylus provided to keep the screen clean.
•
Avoid prolonged exposure of the display panel to any strong heat source. Wherever
•
possible, the DT312 should face away from direct light to reduce glare.
If the AC-DC power adapter is used to recharge or power the device, do NOT use any
•
AC-DC adapter other than the one provided with the device or acquired from the
manufacturer or its partners.
In the unlikely event that smoke, abnormal noise, or strange odor is present,
•
immediately power offthe DT312 and disconnect all power sources. Report the
problem to your device provider immediately.
Never aempt to disassemble the DT312, as this will void the warranty.

THE DT312
Basic Features
The DT312 wireless tablet integrates a bright and responsive touch display, two USB
ports, and embedded networking elements such as wireless LAN and Bluetooth or
oponal 3G. The primary device is complemented by a suite of accessories, including
baery expansion, charging cradles, and baery charger kit, for a comprehensive user
experience.
A DT312 typically integrates an 802.11a/b/g/n wireless LAN (WLAN) adapter that may
connect to other wireless devices or access points. If your DT312 does not come with
such a network adapter, please consult your device provider to establish the desired
network connecvity.

ENGLISH 45ENGLISH
OPERATION
Internal Baery Switch
To prevent baery drain during shipping and extended storage, the internal baery may
be disconnected off. To connect the internal baery, push the baery buon switch (on
the back panel) to the “up”posion (see page 2 for photo). The internal baery pack has
to be connected for it to operate, be charged, and for the oponal external baery pack
to funcon.
Powering ON and OFF
To acvate the DT312, push and quickly release the Power Buon. The display will come
on in a few seconds. To put the DT312 in Standby mode, push and quickly release the
Power Buon. To turn the DT312 offfor extended storage, power offthe device safely
using any soware funcon that “shuts down computer”provided in the soware
operang system.
NOTE: The baery packs shipped with your device may be low in power—please use
the AC-DC adapter with the DT312 when seng up the device for the first me to
fully charge the internal baery pack. You may charge the external baery pack with it
aached to the DT312, or with the oponal external baery charger kit.
NOTE: When the baery pack(s) is (are) 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 DT312 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
device in “Standby”mode while not in use. Pushing briefly on the same buon will wake
up the system within seconds.
NOTE: Avoid using the Power Buon (“hold 4+ seconds”feature) to turn offthe
device—this form of hardware shutdown is intended to be a means of recovery from
device lockups, and not as normal operaon.
Start Up
If the power up (from Standby 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 DT312
The device may be configured using the ulies and methods dictated by the soware
operang system. The DT312 should be configurable for various properes such as user
profiles, network features, and several system elements.
Calibraon
The touch display for the DT312 is calibrated before shipping. In the event that the
calibraon has been modified or is unsasfactory, the respecve calibraon rounes
(e.g., PenMount (PM) for Windows XP) to calibrate the touch interface may be used.
Such applicaons are typically executed through touch input via Stylus or through mouse
click via a USB mouse.
Wireless Networking
Wireless LAN
The DT312 is oen delivered with an embedded (user-inaccessible) 802.11a/b/g/n
WLAN adapter equipped with a hidden custom antenna.
T
•hrough the support of typical WLAN adapters, the DT312 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.
T
•he SSID and WEP/WPA/WPA2 (if enabled) parameters on the DT312 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.
W
•hen WEP/WPA/WPA2 is enabled, you may need to consult your network admin-
istrator or your networking equipment literature to properly configure associated
sengs such as Authencaon mode, etc.
R
•efer to the access point operang manuals for seng up the 802.11 access points.
Bluetooth
The DT312 features a built-in Bluetooth adapter that operates on the Microso
Windows Bluetooth protocol. The Bluetooth configuraon applicaon is invoked from
the System Tray or from the Control Panel for Windows XP. Follow the instrucons and
opons provided within the applicaon to configure and invoke Bluetooth connecvity
with the corresponding peripherals.
NOTE: Bluetooth devices or accessories that are not compable with the Microso
Windows Bluetooth protocol may not work with the DT312.

DT312
ENGLISH 67ENGLISH
Buon Management
Where supported by soware, many of the hard buons on the DT312 are
programmable to perform a funcon of the user’s choice. The excepon is the Power
Buon and the SAS Buon. To acvate the buon re-assignment applicaon, invoke the
Buon Manager applicaon, e.g., in Windows XP Embedded .
Brightness Control
Where supported by device firmware and soware, a hard buon may be engaged to
manipulate the display brightness. Press the System Menu buon (Buon 7) on the front
of the DT312. The System screen will display a Brightness control secon with up and
down arrows that can be acvated with the stylus.
Baery and Power Management
The DT312 is equipped with an internal 2200mAh Li-Ion baery pack that is capable
of supporng approximately 1.5–2 hours of connuous operaon. With the oponal
internal 3760mAh baery and an external baery pack that clips (hot-pluggable)
onto the back of the device, the maximum period of connuous operaon will be
approximately 3–4 hours. The period between baery recharges can be significantly
lengthened by pung the device into Standby mode through the Power Buon (see
Buons Funcon Table) whenever the device is not in use. Depending on the operang
soware, the DT312 may also be configured to enter various power-saving modes via
the Power Buon or through med entry.
Desktop Cradle
The DT312 is complemented by an oponal Desktop Cradle for support, pass-through
charging, and connecon to a range of USB peripherals, including keyboard and mouse.
The Cradle offers the following interfaces: a DC-in port for the AC-DC adapter, an
Ethernet port, a VGA port (oponal) and USB ports. Always seat the DT312 securely onto
the cradle. The cradle must be powered by the AC-DC adapter for the Ethernet and USB
ports to funcon. The baery packs on the DT312 may be recharged by connecng the
AC-DC adapter directly to the DC-in port on the DT312 or through the DC-in port on the
Desktop Cradle while the DT312 is docked to the Cradle.
USING THE DT312
Memory configuraon
The DT312 is available with 2GB memory configuraon. Storage opons currently range
from: 2GB to 16GB flash memory or 32GB to 64GB SSD.
Peripherals Support
Through its USB ports, the DT312 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. The DT312 is also compable with
custom mountable cradle opons. These securable and mountable cradles provide an
interface to VESA mounts and arms, and to ports that may include USB, Ethernet, and
pass-through power.
Remote Management
Depending on soware configuraon, the DT312 can be centrally managed for asset
monitoring and for soware control. Please consult your device provider.
